The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Meanwhile, back at the Riveras' mansion...
Lucas had just returned to New Capital City. He went straight to his company after having dinner with Corinne.
He had nothing urgent to attend to, but he chose to go to do the work that had been piling up. This was to distract himself from thinking about other things that might worsen his already bad mood. It was already late at night by the time he finished his work, and he closed his laptop.
Pinching the bridge of his nose, he stood up, put on his coat, and went out.
As soon as he opened the office door, he saw Edmund wrapping up a phone call and turning hastily.
Seeing Lucas coming out of the office, Edmund hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Mister Lucas, are you leaving soon? I was about to go in and tell you something."
Lucas looked at the flustered Edmund with a frown. "What's the matter?"
"Something happened at your house! The housekeeper just called and said that Mister Maxwell is missing. He couldn't get through to you, so he called me and asked you to go home quickly!" Lucas' frown deepened. "When did my father go missing?"
"No one has seen him since dinner time. Your grandparents thought he was still gardening in the yard, so they didn't think too much about it. But when he didn't come home even when the sky turned dark, they decided to call him before realizing his phone had been turned off."
Lucas brooded silently for a while. "A grown man like him can't go missing like that."
"That only applies under normal circumstances. Your grandparents are worried that Mister Maxwell might have taken ill again or got into an accident outside," said Edmund cautiously.
Lucas was already very tired, and it seemed his father did not want to let him rest.
"Let's go home and see what's happening."
"Yes, Mister Lucas!" responded Edmund. He then called the driver and asked him to bring the car around as soon as possible as he followed Lucas out.
It was 1 a.m. by the time Lucas got back to his family's mansion.
As soon as he entered, he saw Beatrice and Cedric sitting in the living room with all the servants lined up behind them.
Two police officers were asking about the situation.
'They called the police?' Lucas frowned.
He walked to the living room and said, "Grandpa, Grandma, I'm back."

"Your father is certainly acting more and more like a child! He's a grown man, for god's sake! How could he make us worry like this?" shouted Cedric.
Lucas walked up to his grandparents and said, "Grandpa and Grandma, don't worry. I've asked my men to look for him. I'm sure we'll find him very soon."

"Sigh. We wouldn't be this worried if not for the fact that your father is
very sick! You know how he's been E taking antidepressants over the
years. We're just afraid that he'd do something stupid in the spur of the moment..." said Beatrice worriedly. Visit bignovels.com to read the latest chapter of this novel
Cedric sighed heavily again.
Lucas knew what his grandparents were worried about. Ever since his mother left with his sister, the relationship between him and his father had been lukewarm,
neither good nor bad.
