Chapter 456
Lucian’s brows knitted into a tight knot as he replied in a low voice, “Okay. I’ll do my best to control
myself.”
Jonathan breathed a sigh of relief and turned to walk toward Alfred’s room. “I think that Grandpa should
be awake now. Let’s go inside. To be honest, he will be incredibly happy to see you since you have not
been able to visit for a long time.”
“I really was pretty busy recently,” Lucian said as he caught up with Jonathan.
“And yet, you still had the time to go to Summerbank with Dr. Jarvis,” Jonathan teased
When Lucian recalled the events that had happened in that particr city, his face darkened. “I just
happen to have work to take care of in Summerbank.”

Jonathan smiled wordlessly.
The two men walked over to Alfred’s room, and Jonathan raised a hand to knock on the door. After
hearing Alfred’s voice from inside the room, they opened the door and walked in.
“Grandpa, Lucian is here to see you,” Jonathan said to Alfred with a smile after entering the room.
“Hello, Old Mr. Queen,” Lucian greeted politely.
Alfred had just woken up from his nap. He tried to push himself up into a sitting position.
Jonathan quickly walked over to give Alfred a hand while Lucian filled some water into the cup that was
on the table. Thetter then walked over to Alfred and passed the cup to him.
Alfred took a sip of water and smiled at the young man next to him. “Things aren’t as busy over at the
company anymore?”
Lucian nodded. “Things are pretty slow at the office these days, therefore I decided toe and visit
you. How have you beentely?”
“I’ve been feeling much better. As for you young people, please remember to take care of yourselves
as well. Don’t overwork yourself,” Alfred said in contentment.
“I will. Don’t worry,” Lucian promised.
Jonathan reminded, “Grandpa, Dr. Jarvis is here as well. She’s currently waiting
downstairs for you.”
Upon hearing that Roxanne was here, Alfred red at his grandson. “Why didn’t you tell me earlier?
Help me up.”
With that, Jonathan carefully helped Alfred down the bed.
Roxanne had been waiting downstairs for a while when she saw Alfred walking down the stairs. She
quickly stood up and greeted him.
“Please, have a seat. There’s no need to be so polite.” Alfred smiled and waved his hand dismissively.
Even so, Roxanne waited till Alfred had taken his seat on the couch before sitting down herself.
Jonathan sat silently at the spot that was furthest from Roxanne, leaving a ce beside her for Lucian.
Noticing that Lucian was sitting incredibly near her, Roxanne pursed her lips and shifted her body,
trying to widen the distance between them.
Lucian frowned in displeasure when he saw her movements.
“The medical consultation is going to start next week at the orphanage located on the outskirts of the
city. How are your preparations?” The old man was oblivious to what was going on in the younger
generation’s minds. He looked at Roxanne with concern in his eyes.
“I’m mostly done with my preparations. I’ve been doing research on congenital diseases among
children recently,” Roxanne replied.
After knowing that the recent medical consultations held by the Damaris family were all aimed at
children with congenital diseases, Roxanne specifically searched for previous records on the diseases.
She even analyzed the medical records of children that the Damaris family had treated. After studying
those documents, Roxanne managed to gain more knowledge.
Alfred smiled kindly. “It looks like you’ve put in a lot of effort. However, there’s no need to put too much
pressure on yourself. After all, you are Harvey’s student. You should have some confidence in
yourself.”
Roxanne nodded obediently.
Alfred then turned to look at Jonathan. “Go and bring me the rmendation letter in the drawer of my
study,” he instructed thetter.
Jonathan nodded and got up. Before he walked toward the stairs, he worriedly
nced at Lucian. He was afraid that Lucian would start arguing with Roxanne once he left.
