Chapter 1260

However, Frieda was only just getting started. “If it weren’t for Roxanne, Lucian and Aubree would’ve gotten married long ago!”

At that point, Jonathan wanted nothing more than to slap some sense into his sister. “Can you still not see the truth? Even if Dr. Jarvis didn’t return, there was no way Lucian would marry Aubree!”

When Frieda heard that, she began to doubt herself. “How’s that possible? I remember how he used to…”

Having witnessed how obsessed Lucian was with Aubree six years ago, Frieda was convinced Roxanne was the reason Lucian and Aubree did not end up together.

“You shut your mouth! If Lucian really loved Aubree, why didn’t he marry her? Dr. Jarvis has always been the one he loves!” rebuked Jonathan.

“That’s impossible!” Suddenly, Frieda did not sound as confident as she did before.

“Then how about you tell me why Lucian refused to marry Aubree if he loved her so much?” questioned Jonathan with furrowed eyebrows.

Frieda trembled as she continued to doubt herself. “But… Even if Lucian didn’t love Aubree, they were engaged! Besides, Roxanne’s had a child with another man. It’s impossible that she’d be worthy of someone like Lucian!”

“Lucian has already decided to call off the engagement!” roared Jonathan.

Immediately after hearing that, Frieda dropped her jaw because she could not believe her ears. “How can that be? It’s been six years, so why would Lucian suddenly decide to call off the engagement?” If he wanted to do that, why didn’t he say anything about it earlier?

Jonathan gave his sister a disappointed look before responding, “I told you long ago to stop getting involved in Lucian’s personal affairs, but you just wouldn’t listen! Look how it turned out! If this affects our family, I won’t go easy on you even though you’re my sister!”

Frieda was already buried in self-doubt when she heard her brother’s harsh words. Looking incredulously at her sibling, she cried, “Jonathan!”

“I don’t have a sister as stupid as you!” Jonathan was so upset that his head hurt. “From now on, you better do as you’re told and stay in the hospital. If you get into trouble again, I’ll inform Grandpa and have you kicked out of the family!”

Still refusing to believe that Lucian would call off the engagement with Aubree so easily, Frieda clenched her fists as her lips trembled uncontrollably.

“That’s impossible. That’s impossible…”

She was just about to rush out to confirm with Aubree when someone suddenly knocked on the door.

Following that was Lucian walking in with a blank expression.

Frieda’s heart almost skipped a beat when her gaze met Lucian’s. The woman instinctively took a few steps backward.

She refused to believe Lucian would actually call off the engagement, even after everything Jonathan had said.

However, the second Frieda saw Lucian’s expression, she began to change her mind.

Frieda was filled with terror as she wondered what Lucian would do to her after all the things she had done with Aubree.

Lucian’s gaze only stayed on Fried for a few seconds before he shifted his attention to Jonathan. “I’m done. We can go now.”

Like his sister, Jonathan was also nervous then.

Despite his harsh words, he did not think he would be able to stomach watching Lucian teach Frieda a lesson.

Fortunately, that did not seem like Lucian’s intention.

After sighing in relief internally, Jonathan nodded in response and strode out, leaving his sister behind.

“I’m so sorry, Lucian. I should’ve kept an eye on Frieda.” In the end, Jonathan still decided to share the blame after walking out the door.
