Chapter 1929 An Important Secret
“Lucian, Roxanne, the two of you have been up all night. You should go upstairs and get some rest.”
Upon returning to the mansion and after checking on his slumbering mother, James urged Roxanne and Lucian to get some rest.
The two of them realized that the Lann father and son still had unspoken words. Hence, they tactfully went away to allow them to
communicate.This text is property of N?/velD/rama.Org.
However, they were quite exhausted as well. That night, the two of them slept soundly. When they woke up the next day, it was
already past nine o''clock in the morning.
When the two of them got up to wash up, they heard Yennefer shouting outside the house.
“Roxanne, Lucian, it''s time to eat breakfast!” Yennefer appeared to be in great condition that day. She wore a smile as she
nced at Roxanne with a somewhat satisfied looking expression.
When the two of them headed downstairs, James came over and informed them that he had brought his mother up to speed
when he saw her that morning.
Lucian grew a little nervous. “Everything? What was her reaction? Is she willing to go through with it?”
“No, no. Lucian, you''re mistaken. | only exined to my mother the current timeline. | told her that she had been in aa for a
long time but omitted the part about you and Roxanne getting married. | think she wants to help n the wedding. She nearly
gave Mrs. Farwell a call this morning!”
So, that was what happened.
Roxanne and Lucian exchanged nces. Good thing it was only a false rm.
If James really told Yennefer everything, thetter was likely unable to hold it together.
“Roxanne, it was thanks to your suggestion that | met with my mother. | was really worried that my presence would affect her
greatly. | did not expect her to be this happy,” James said as he nced at the garden. His parents were watering the nts
together.
Yennefer was currently nagging Jones about the nts. She had tended to the flowers with great care, and yet weeds and
various diseases had spoiled them.
“James, trust Mrs. Lann. She''s only a little confused right now. You are always very important to her in her heart.” Roxanne took
the opportunity to assuage James’ unease.
Lucian was well aware of his wife''s temperament. Thetter did not enjoy lecturing others. Thus, he followed up with some words
of encouragement and added, “Honestly speaking, | think your presence calms Mrs. Lann down. | was thinking about the
incident in Alendor where she had been frightened by the gunshot. Perhaps she had mistakenly thought that you were in
danger.”
Stunned, James fell into deep contemtion. Eventually, a smile appeared on the corner of his lips. “I guess I''m not good at
diagnosing myself. | tend to think of the worst scenarios. Thanks to Roxanne''s and your guidance, | think I''ve finally understood
the situation better.”
Roxanne and Lucian were pleased to see James smile. It was as if thetter had finally set down a rock in his heart.
Now, the psychological guidance would officially begin.
This time, James did not try to escape.
Yennefer returned to the hall after she finished voicing herints to Jones.
“James, make sure you entertain Lucian and Roxanne properly! It''s so rare for them to visit us. Go bring out your father''s private
coffee stash,” Yennefer said as she greeted the couple with a smile.
She felt regretful that she had been unable to attend their wedding because she had been unwell.
Roxanne waved her hand and said that she did not mind. She also promised to show Yennefer their wedding photos when they
had time.
Yennefer grinned from ear to ear. “I really envy Sonya! It would be like a dreame true to have such a talented daughter-in-
law.
“You''re ttering me too much, Mrs. Lann,” Roxanne replied modestly.
James prepared the coffee and served Lucian and Roxanne. Just then, Jones came into the hall, and they began to chat about
lighthearted topics. Naturally, the topic of the three children''s antics came up.
Yennefer was greatly amused. She adored the children and wanted to meet with them as soon as possible.
When James felt that the moment was right, he suddenly turned to his mother and dered calmly, “Mom, there''s something I''ve
always wanted to tell you. It''s my most important secret. May | tell you in private?”
