Chapter 606

“Do you understand what I have said?” Jonathan asked, just in case.

Lucian pinched between his brows.

Despite all he had heard, he was still as confounded as before.

Given what had happened, he couldn‘t tolerate making another mistake.

Therefore, despite how embarrassing it was, he inquired further, “Tell me in simpler terms what I should say for her

to understand me.”

Jonathan was speechless.

Didn‘t I make it clear enough?

“I love you.”

Jonathan‘s face couldn‘t be any more serious as he stared at his friend.

No sooner had the words left his mouth than a deathly silence ensued.

Given how earnest Jonathan‘s expression was, even Lucian was stunned for a few seconds.





When Jonathan saw from Lucian‘s expression that he had gotten his point across, he eased the seriousness on his

face and continued his coaching. “Do you now know what to say now?”

Lucian, having regained his senses, nodded.

“I know that you have never courted a woman in your life, so it‘s understandable that you might have some

difficulty with it.”

Jonathan continued in a solemn tone, “Nonetheless, pursuing a lady is similar to closing a business deal. There‘s no

need to beat around the bush. Just let the opposing party know what your intentions are so that they can

understand you properly. Or else, being shady will never win you any deals.”

Just as he spoke, Jonathan patted Lucian on the shoulder. “If you like her, you should then admit it instead of using

girl. When that happens, neither of you will be able to get close to her anymore. And you know what, you would

deserve it. But what about Essie? She‘s the innocent one in all this!”

The instant Lucian heard the last sentence, he wrinkled his brows as the temperature

around him dropped.

Feeling a chill down his spine, Jonathan, realizing the gravity of his words, tried to laugh it off. “I‘m just quoting an

example. I‘m sure you know what I mean.”

Lucian remained silent.

Truth be told, Jonathan‘s words had hit the nail on the head.

In fact, Roxanne was already avoiding Estella on his account, while Estella was angry at him for the same reason.

Even then, Lucian didn‘t learn from his mistakes because Roxanne would keep her distance unless he used Estella

as an excuse.

After all, he had absolutely run out of ideas.

As Jonathan sipped his wine subconsciously, he snuck a careful glance at Lucian.

Upon seeing the sullen expression on his friend‘s face, Jonathan assumed he had said something wrong and began

to regret it.

However, Lucian‘s voice suddenly rang out, carrying a hint of suppressed anger.

“What else can I do when she keeps avoiding me?”

When Jonathan felt that Lucian‘s anger had passed, he heaved a sigh of relief and continued, “You just have to be

patient. After all, you did hurt her six years ago, so it‘s not a surprise that she‘s avoiding you. If you really want to

change her mind, you should drop that high and mighty attitude of yours in front of her. Instead, lower yourself and

try to gain her sympathy.”



As Lucian turned his head to give Jonathan a glance, anger seemed to flash across his eyes, as if he was

questioning Jonathan‘s audacity to have him play the victim card.

Reading Lucian‘s mind, Jonathan explained, “After being a doctor for so many years, Dr. Jarvis is definitely someone

sympathetic. Besides, given how intimidating you are, I‘m sure you’ll be able to melt her heart by playing victiin.”
