    CHAPTER 1764 ON OUR GUARD


    It went without saying that Lucian was anxious about Roxanne leaving his side when she had just


    recovered, coupled with the incident a while ago.


    “Go back first. It so happens that I want to spend some more time with Madilyn.”


    Roxanne could tell that her best friend had something else to say to her, so she seconded Madilyn.


    At her words, a frown marred Lucian''s countenance. Worry was practically written all over his face.


    Seeing that, Madilyn suggested understandingly, “If you''re worried, Mr. Farwell, you can have someone


    follow us. Anyway, I certainly won''t take Roxanne out to do anything to betray you.”


    No sooner had she proposed that than Lucian agreed without hesitation, “It''s decided, then. I''ll have


    someone follow you both to provide protection. Call me when you''re done, and I''lle and pick the


    two of you up.”


    It was clear as day that such had been his n from the very beginning.


    Naturally, Madilyn had no objections to it. In fact, she even threw her best friend a teasing look. “Things


    are indeed different when one is attached.”


    A hint of scarlet stained Roxanne''s face, and she smiled without responding to that, merely saying to


    Archie, Benny, and Este, “Your Aunt Madilyn and I will only go back a whileter. Be good and listen


    to your daddy.”


    All three children obediently acquiesced.


    Lucian made a call and waited for some time. It was not until he had ascertained that his subordinates


    were all in ce that he drove away.


    “What''s wrong? Is something else the matter?”


    Madilyn dragged Roxanne to a quiet bar, and thetter gave voice to that question in puzzlement after


    they had taken a seat.


    Wearing a somewhat strange expression, Madilyn sounded hesitant as she started, “It isn''t a big


    deal...”


    She then took a sip of wine guiltily, her gaze darting all over the ce.


    At that, Roxanne''s curiosity was further piqued. “Why are you beating around the bush, considering our


    rtionship?”


    Madilyn again wavered for a long while. Finally, she ventured, “Do you still remember Ms. Lane?”


    Hearing that, Roxanne was stumped for a few seconds before she recalled the person Madilyn was


    speaking of.


    It was no wonder she could not remember Elektra immediately, for too many things had happened in


    the past two days.


    Furthermore, the woman had only appeared before her once briefly. Verily, she did not have the


    presence of mind to pay Elektra much attention.


    “Yeah. Lucian has exined that they''re good friends. What''s with her?”


    Sighing, Madilyn urged earnestly, “I think while Mr. Farwell was quite a sc*mbag six years ago, judging


    from the look of things now, he''s indeed a decent man who''s hard toe by. Not only did Ms. Lane


    grow up with him, but the timing of her return this time is also rather suspicious. You''d best be careful,


    lest she turns out to be the next Aubree.”


    After saying that, she rified, “I don''t mean anything else by that. I''ve seen how much Mr. Farwell


    cares about you in the past few days, and I believe that he definitely won''t have a change of heart. But


    then, no one knows Ms. Lane''s thoughts exactly. It''s prudent to be careful!”


    She was truly scared after everything that had transpired with Aubree.


    On the one hand, she was happy that her best friend had found true love. But on the other, she was


    afraid that thetter would be hurt because Lucian was too popr among thedies.


    Since Roxanne''s return to the country, Madilyn had almost lost her twice.


    As such, she did not want to experience it a third time.

    Upon hearing that, Roxanne frowned slightly. Elektra''s countenance gradually took shape in her mind.


    Casting her mind back to the woman for a while, she shook her head lightly. “I don''t think she''s such a


    person.”


    As far as she remembered, Elektra''s gaze was exceedingly sincere. That aside, Lucian''s evaluation of


    her was also rtively good.


    Therefore, she trusted her intuition.


    “I''m just cautioning you against her. Truthfully speaking, she also told me while you were still


    unconscious that she has no designs on Mr. Farwell. Nevertheless, it does no harm for us to be on our


    guard against her,” Madilyn asserted.
