After Lucas said goodbye to the children, he stared at his hopeless younger brother Sunny and lectured him sternly. He made it very clear that Sunny must not cause any trouble to Corinne and Jeremy on this trip.
Sunny pouted and replied impatiently, "Alright, alright! I get it! I'm not a kid anymore. Give me a little bit of respect in front of my fiancee, will you?"
Lucas ignored him entirely. He turned to Xante and nodded to her. "Please take care of him for me."
Xante replied with a silent nod.
Last but not least, Lucas walked to his mother Emily, whom he had just reunited with, and hugged her. He gently reminded her to take care of herself. He was just a call away in case she got tired of traveling. Emily looked at him with her reddened eyes and nodded. She reminded him not to overwork himself and to 'have a safe trip home'.
Lucas nodded as he listened.
When it was time to go, Lucas finally glanced at his father Maxwell and sternly said, "Don't lose Mom and Corinne this time. I'll make you pay if you do."
Maxwell smiled and promised, "Don't worry, I won't lose them again."
Lucas waved goodbye to them at the boarding gate until he could not see them anymore.
For some reason, he felt inexplicably saddened by the departure, even though they would be seeing each other again after the trip.
Edmund came to inform Lucas, "Sir, Mister Greg and Miss Pamela requested your presence. They said guests are waiting for you at home."
Lucas was puzzled. 'Guests? Who'd come to visit on such an important day?'
He did not ask Edmund who the guests were as he assumed Edmund had no idea as well. Thus, he got in the car and ordered his chauffeur to send him home.
When Lucas arrived back home, he saw a car he had never seen before parked in the yard.
'Who could it be?' he wondered as he walked into the house.
The living room was filled with laughter. It seemed like the guests were having a good time.
"Mister Cedric, Mister Lucas has returned!" announced the maid.
