Chapter 810 Do Not Let It Bother You
After giving it much thought, Jonathan came to a brazen conclusion. “What you have done so far isn’t enough.” Lucian cocked a brow. “I only followed what you said.”
Jonathan was rendered speechless by the snarky response. He was filled with the urge to remind Lucian who it was who needed help.
However, when he recalled that Lucian’s demeanor would inherently make him bad at courtship, he decided to shoulder the blame. “That’s because the methods I shared with you weren’t enough,” he said in resignation.
“What else can I do?” Lucian looked at him in puzzlement. Roxanne’s attitude in the morning made him feel uneasy. He wanted to improve the dynamics of their relationship as soon as possible.
Scratching his nose, Jonathan suggested, “You know, women like romantic stuff. You can consider doing something romantic that will move her.” Something romantic?
Lucian thought back to the recent interactions he had with Roxanne. Come to think of it, I don’t remember doing anything romantic. I might have, but I certainly wasn’t aware of it.
“For example, while out shopping, you can surprise her with a gift when she’s not looking. Or… you can even organize a romantic dinner with her.”
Knowing that Lucian had no inkling of how to be romantic, Jonathan solemnly quoted a few examples. However, Lucian glowered at his suggestions. “I’m not doing that.”
There’s no way I can bring myself to do something like that. Besides, Roxanne would probably see through me and end up doubting my sincerity instead.
His reaction filled Jonathan with exasperation. “Whatever it is, the point is to be romantic. If those two methods don’t suit you, you can always try something else. If you continue to sit on your hands, there’s no way Dr. Jarvis is ever going to forgive you. You should sleep on it.”
He tried his very best to come up with suggestions, but all of them were shot down by Lucian. At the rate the latter was going, he would soon run out of ideas.
Upon hearing his friend’s words, Lucian pinched the space between his brows.
Since I’m the one who wants to make it up to her, I should come up with my own ideas.
Nonetheless, Lucian still couldn’t figure out what sort of gestures were considered romantic.
Suppressing the anger within him, Jonathan advised, “At this point, you should just drop your airs in front of her. I have seen how badly she has treated you before, but it could have been worse. If you don’t do anything about it, both of you will stay this way forever.”
He patted Lucian on his back and added, “This isn’t more difficult than doing business, and you have nothing to lose. If you really want Dr. Jarvis to forgive you, you have to give it a try no matter what.”
A peculiar sensation swelled within Lucian, and he eventually nodded in acknowledgment. “Okay. I’ll do it.”
Hearing that, Jonathan heaved a sigh of relief and sought to make up for his earlier mistake. “Even if Dr. Jarvis agrees to take on the role of technical advisor, that’s still just her job. Don’t let it bother you.”
Lucian knitted his brows and nodded as he recalled their conversation earlier.
Only then did a smile spread across Jonathan’s face, and they continued discussing the matter related to Herbscape Group.
