Lucas heard that before, Sean couldn’t even lift a bow and arrow.
Sean even issued Leonard a challenge, wanting to compete against him, but when the time of the match came,
Leonard didn’t appear.
He didn’t even want to fight against this pipsqueak.
With that thought in mind, Lucas was more forgiving toward Sean. He even gave Sean a set of new clothes to
change into.
“One week later, I’ll let you out of this room.”
During this period…
“You don’t need to interfere with Julian Fulcher’s affairs from here on.”
Lucas handed Sean a set of documents.
“Make it so that these two rooms in this hotel can only be unlocked on our end one week—no, three days later.”
Lucas thought through it. Nowhere was safe and private enough. He’d rather let Diana remain in that hotel all the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtway.
Anyway, he heard that the servants at home helped tidy up her room till it was spick and span. Jim even booked the
neighboring rooms, which meant that Diana had a lot of space to move about.
Over the coming week, the Hughes family would reserve the entire hotel for their own use. Diana could then take
Betty downstairs for some sunshine if the weather looked up. They wouldn’t be bothered if they wanted to take a
stroll, too.
Just…
She wouldn’t be able to leave that hotel before she gave birth.
Lucas had proposed this idea to Jim, but Jim had yet to give him a response. However, Lucas was already beginning
to put his plan in place.
Firstly, he had to first reprogram the lock of Diana’s hotel room so he could be in full control of Diana’s movements
anytime.
Thankfully, Sean was sharp enough to ask, “Whose hotel room is this? Is it the room of Julian Fulcher’s wife? Why
do we need to change the passcode program of the door lock?”
He could teach his daddy a lesson, but he didn’t want to help others bully his mommy. He didn’t even want to help
others bully Daddy.
He was the only one who could bully Daddy and Mommy.
“Yes,” Lucas said, once again impressed by Sean’s intellect. “It is the room of Julian Fulcher’s wife, Ms. Winnington.”
Sean’s hand, which was applying ointment, paused midair. Suddenly, he didn’t want to leave this room.
He couldn’t really figure out what Lucas wanted to do to Mommy.
“Her husband doesn’t know how to take care of her. Our professor said we have to teach Julian Fulcher a lesson,
and make him anxious when he can’t find his own wife. We can’t let Ms. Winnington return to Richburgh so soon.
We must let her have as much fun as possible here.”
Sean asked, “What does this have to do with controlling the password to her door lock?”
“I have no choice,” Lucas said with a shrug. “Ms. Winnington’s blinded by love. I heard the professor say that she’s
anxious to return to Richburgh when she realized that Julian Fulcher isn’t coming.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“She wants to go look for her husband, but her husband didn’t even bother calling her. As her friend, the professor
is angry and anxious for her.
“That’s why he wants to help Ms. Winnington. At the very least, he wants to stop her from returning so quickly.”
Jim no longer trusted Julian. He didn’t think Julian was capable of ensuring a smooth pregnancy for Diana and
keeping her in a good mood the whole time.
So, he didn’t intend to let Ms. Winnington go back. To him, he was helping Diana with her pregnancy. He was doing a
good thing and fulfilling his responsibility as a friend.
“Oh, right.” Lucas was in complete agreement with Jim, and he sounded righteous as he spoke about forcing Diana
to stay in Jacroaof. “That Julian Fulcher even said that he wanted to put his wife and daughter in our professor’s
hands.”
Lucas looked fiercely at Sean.
“Do you think Julian Fulcher is going to look for other women? Otherwise, how could he say something like that? Ms.
Winnington will probably be very heartbroken if she were to return right now.”
Sean looked more and more solemn as he listened to Lucas.
