Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian)

Chapter 2012 Destined

"Maddy, request to take a few days off from Roxanne. I'll go with you to Xandenia. We must bring Mdm. Xander back."

Jonathan made up his mind, quickly picked up the phone, and asked his assistant to book the plane tickets.

Madilyn nodded and immediately took action by calling her best friend.

Roxanne received Madilyn's call and agreed without hesitation when she heard that her friend wanted to take a few days of leave to return to Xandenia to handle some matters.

However, Roxanne was still concerned, so she probed further, "Madilyn, what are you going back for? Could it be that Jonathan wants to discuss the wedding with your father? I don't think dealing with that man is at all necessary. He has been disregarding you for a long time anyway. You can just pretend you don't have a father like that. There's no need to stir up unwanted trouble."

Feeling desperate, Madilyn racked her brain to come up with an excuse to convince Roxanne.

After all, Roxanne was pregnant now, and there was no need to distress her further.

Hence, she finally made up an excuse to reassure Roxanne and stammered a response, "That's not the case. How could I care about that man's opinion? We're just going to pay respects to our ancestors and have some fun for a few days. Don't worry. I want nothing to do with that kind of father."

"That's good. Don't get in touch with them when you go back. If anything happens, remember to let me know," Roxanne advised.

After hanging up the phone, Madilyn felt warmth surging in her heart.

She was no longer alone and without anyone to support her now. At present, she had a man she loved and the best friend anyone could ask for in the world, so she didn't need to fear anything.

To ensure a smooth trip, Jonathan arranged for a dozen bodyguards to accompany them to Xandenia.

Norton was very influential there, so if they weren't extra careful, some unexpected accident might happen.

In the early hours of the morning, their plane took off from Horington Airport, heading directly for the largest city in Xandenia.

After nearly three hours of flight, they arrived at the airport. Bodyguards lined up to protect Jonathan and Madilyn as they exited the airport. Soon, business personnel from Farwell Group in the city came to receive them.

"Greetings, Mr. Queen. The hotel has been reserved, and if you have any further instructions, please feel free to issue them."

Jonathan nodded, took off his coat, and draped it over Madilyn.

The weather in Xandenia was already freezing cold.

A convoy of cars reached the city's best five-star hotel at breakneck speed amidst the night.

That hotel was also part of Farwell Group's business, and the entire hotel was on high alert for Jonathan's arrival, thinking it was a surprise inspection from the headquarters.

By then, Madilyn was already feeling sleepy, so Jonathan let her bathe right away. He then picked up his laptop and began researching the extent of the Cheever family's business in Xandenia, as mentioned by Norton.

After browsing through some information, he found that the Cheever family's business was mainly in traditional industries related to natural resources. It seemed that they had monopolized those businesses through networking.

Jonathan had no interest in dealing with such businessmen. To put it bluntly, their fortune came from their ancestors' hard work, and it had nothing to do with their personal abilities.

He contemplated how he should approach Norton upon making contact. Will we invoke an intense retaliation from Norton if we take Mdm. Xander away by force?

Madilyn took a relaxing hot bath and soaked in the bathtub for a long time until her skin turned rosy and radiant.

She felt inexplicably at ease during that trip. That feeling of happiness enveloped by a strong sense of security prompted her to smile gently.

Suddenly, an astonishing thought popped into her mind, and her cheeks that were already flushed from the steam turned even redder. She felt her body temperature rapidly rising. "Norton, I will never follow your arrangements! I am destined to be Jonathan's woman!"
