The abandoned Wife Unspoken Fears: Cayden's Unease and Estella's Apprehension
Cayden was still feeling uneasy even after he had successfully picked Archie and Benny up from the kindergarten. For some reason, he felt as though he could see Lucian’s shadow in their eyes when they were staring at him earlier.There’s no mistaking that suspicious look in their eyes. They definitely think I’m hiding something!Sure enough, Archie asked the moment he got into the car, “Mr. Lawson, is our mommy really with Mr. Farwell right now?”Unsure of what to say, Cayden pretended to not hear the boy’s question and continued driving toward Roxanne’s house.“Mr. Lawson, are you hiding something from us?” Benny started questioning him as well.Since they were unable to get any answers out of him, they began coming up with their own theories in the back seat.Fearing that they would end up hitting the nail on the head, Cayden said, “Why would I lie to you two? Mr. Farwell gave Ms. Jarvis a batch of medicinal herbs for her research, so she’s working overtime to take inventory. I thi

However, an inexplicable sense of unease swamped Estella. She felt so aggrieved that her eyes turned red-rimmed. “No, I want you, Daddy!” Perturbed, Lucian ma*saged his temples and tried to console his daughter by saying patiently, “Essie… I’ll be home very soon.”Unexpectedly, Estella suddenly demanded, “I want Ms. Jarvis!”At the mention of Roxanne, Lucian’s heart promptly sank.Is this a coincidence? Why did she bring it up today, of all days, when she’s been waiting for Roxanne for days on end?“Be good, Essie. Your daddy is busy with work. I’ll take good care of you.”Hastily cutting Estella off, Aubree brought the phone to her ear, afraid that Estella would burst into tears if she continued with the conversation.If that happened, she would really have no way of explaining things to Lucian.“Go and get busy, Lucian. Don’t worry, for I’ll get Essie home safely!”Naturally, Lucian could hear the agitation in Estella’s voice. But in comparison with Roxanne’s current condition, he

“Roxanne.” Lucian couldn’t resist calling out to Roxanne, harboring a glimmer of hope that she would open her eyes and wake up upon hearing his voice.Alas, there was no response from her even after his voice had rung out for a long time.Boring his gaze into her, he leaned down and drew close to the woman on the hospital bed.If she even had a shred of awareness, she would probably struggle to regain consciousness and spring away from him the instant she saw him approaching.But this time, she lay there motionlessly and allowed him to draw so close to her that they were merely inches apart. Still, the tempo of her breathing didn’t even change.Only then did Lucian realize that he hadn’t studied Roxanne in such close proximity in a long time.Her features were still exquisite, but she inexorably looked sickly.Looking at her pale face, a flash of hesitancy flittered across his eyes.A moment later, he slowly reached out and caressed her face with the tips of his fingers.“Are you mad

At the specialist’s remark, Lucian finally relented with a frown. This time, two specialists accompanied him into the ward.They monitored Roxanne’s brain waves outside, prepared to notify Lucian when there were fluctuations.Hence, Lucian stepped into the hospital room again.On the hospital bed, Roxanne still showed no signs of waking up.“They said you might wake up if I talk to you.”Lucian walked over to the hospital bed with heavy steps. After a long moment of hesitation, he reached out and took Roxanne’s hand, which lay limply by her side.For once, she didn’t resist. Ironically, he couldn’t muster up any joy from it.As he scrutinized her pale face, his voice lowered. “What would you like to hear?”As expected, he received no response to that question.Lucian chuckled bitterly. Something abruptly occurred to him, and he started, “Seems like there are a lot of misunderstandings between us.”He pondered for a while, his gaze turning distant. “I was sincere back when I said I wa

In the face of Lucian’s accusation, everyone hastily explained, “It’s effective! When you were inside just now, Ms. Jarvis’ brain waves fluctuated greatly!” The look in Lucian’s eyes was frightfully grim. “If so, why is she still not awake?”At that question, the specialists looked at each other. “Because… the stimulation is still insufficient. You must have mentioned something she cares about earlier. We all feel that she’s close to regaining consciousness.”Following that remark, Lucian’s expression turned even colder.It left them without a shadow of a doubt that the man would dismiss them if they were to tarry any longer in offering a solution.“We propose to have Ms. Jarvis’ two kids come and talk to her. Perhaps she’ll then wake up.”The specialist remembered Lucian’s objection a while ago, so he sounded exceedingly cautious.Have Archie and Benny come?A frown marred Lucian’s countenance, and aggravation brimmed in his eyes.She’s now unconscious, but if she were awake, she wo

“Lucian, I’ve been married to you for three years, but you’ve never once touched me. I’ll give my blessing to you and your first crush by giving up on our marriage. Tomorrow, you’re free to go after her. But for now, just make it up to me for my feelings for you all these years, please?”With that said, Roxanne Jarvis leaned down and pressed her lips to the man before her as though she was a moth drawn to fire. Her action was both frenzied and desperate.She knew this was a despicable move, but she had loved him for too long.All the while, she had suffered greatly, and now, all she wanted was a little consolation.“Roxanne, how dare you!”Lucian Farwell clenched his jaw as his fury sprang to life. His handsome face was as black as thunder.He wanted to push her away, but the mounting desire in his body was too overpowering. It threatened to burn away all his capacity for reason.How dare she scheme against me?“I’m afraid of nothing…”A lone drop of tear slipped out of the corner of

Roxanne hurried to Harvey’s office.After pushing the door open, she spotted the little rascals inside. They were sitting on the couch in the office and swinging their legs nonchalantly.The boys lit up at the sight of Roxanne. Scrambling off the couch, they ran toward her excitedly. “Mommy, you’re finally done! I thought you’d be staying in the laboratory forever!”“Mommy, you’ve worked hard! Are you tired? Sit down. I’ll give you a ma*sage.”They led Roxanne to the couch so she could take a seat.As Roxanne took in their concern, she suddenly felt it was worth it to get yelled at.“Look at how obedient you are. You weren’t like this when you hacked into my computer earlier!” Harvey huffed angrily behind his desk.Archie declared, “It was all your fault, Professor Lambert! You kept asking Mommy to work overtime. Look, she’s getting malnourished!”“That’s right! Mommy’s an ordinary human being. How could you ask her to work day and night?” Benny chimed in as he kneaded Roxanne’s shoul

Roxanne’s heart lurched to her throat and remained there as she hurried out of the airport. She kept turning at her shoulder to confirm he didn’t come after them.Fortunately, his figure remained nowhere to be seen even after they exited the airport.Roxanne could finally heave a sigh of relief.The kids found it strange that she kept turning her head to glance behind them.As Roxanne seemed anxious, they knew it wasn’t the time to ask questions. Without a word, they allowed her to drag them out obediently.“Roxanne! Archie! Benny!” A woman called from afar.The three of them lifted their heads and saw a lady dressed in a suit, waving at them happily as she made their way to them.Roxanne relaxed gradually at the sight of the woman. Flashing a smile, she said, “Madilyn, it’s been so long!”Madilyn Xander was her best friend back in university and was currently working as a doctor in her own family’s hospital.Shortly after, Madilyn came to a stop before them and flung her arms around

The seconds continued to tick by, but the doors to the emergency room remained shut. Lucian’s heart grew increasingly heavy as he waited in the silent corridor outside.There are at least five specialists in there! What is taking them so long? How is Roxanne doing? Maybe I should just open the doors and go check on her! No, I can’t do that! I need to be rational here. Stay calm, Lucian…Having dismissed that thought, Lucian slumped weakly against the bench in the corridor.It’s just like what the director said. Roxanne is a doctor who has saved countless lives in the past. She is kind, so I’m sure she’ll be all right. For the sake of the two kids, she will definitely do whatever it takes to make it through!He was snapped out of his train of thought when his phone started ringing all of a sudden.Thinking that it could be something important, Lucian quickly whipped his phone out of his pocket.However, his face sank when he saw Aubree’s name on the caller ID, and he declined the call
The abandoned Wife Racing Against Time: Roxanne's Critical Condition
No. That’s not possible. Jack wasn’t around when I did it. Moreover, Roxanne’s unconscious right now, so I’m the only one with the right to check the surveillance cameras of the lab. No one will be able to check the footage without my permission. Even if Jack is suspicious about my involvement, there’s nothing he can do if I deny everything. With that thought in mind, Colby relaxed. “Weren’t you the one who has been working on the experiment with Dr. Jarvis lately? I wasn’t sure about your experiment’s details, and that’s why I didn’t dare to open the bottle right away—that’s why I asked you guys to take a look at it.”In other words, he was implying that he had stayed away from the lab countertop to ensure that the experiment would go smoothly without his presence.After hearing his explanation, Jack looked at him skeptically before saying, “Dr. Galloway, don’t you think it’s such a coincidence? Why did something happen precisely when I wasn’t around?”Colby shrugged, his expression
The abandoned Wife Clash at the Research Institute: Roxanne's Rescue
Please excuse me,” Jack said to the unconscious Roxanne before carefully reaching out to undo her button. Colby was grimacing as he watched Jack’s actions.Right as Jack undid Roxanne’s first button, a series of rapid footsteps rang out from outside the office.Colby’s eyes lit up, but he quickly suppressed his excitement and looked at the door in faked confusion.On the other hand, Jack was too focused on treating Roxanne, so he did not hear the sounds at all.For ventilation purposes, the door to the office was wide open.The very second Lucian stepped into the office, he saw what Jack was doing.“What are you doing?”Lucian already disliked Jack because of the latter’s relationship with Roxanne.Thus, he turned livid when he was greeted by the sight of Jack trying to take advantage of Roxanne while she was unconscious, and he dashed over right away.Before Jack could react, he was punched in the face and stumbled a few steps back before finally regaining his balance.“What are you
The abandoned Wife Stalemate in the Office: Jack's Treatment Dilemma
Back at the research institute, Jack carried Roxanne into her office. Even though the hallway was spacious and he could’ve just treated Roxanne there, concerned employees would occasionally stick their noses into the situation.Plus, he also needed a quiet environment to treat Roxanne.At the same time, Colby returned to the hallway after sending the message only to find out Jack and Roxanne were gone.“Where’s Dr. Jarvis?”Colby grabbed one of the researchers, his expression grim.The researcher was briefly taken aback before pointing at Roxanne’s office. “I think I saw Mr. Damaris carrying her into the office.”A dark glint flashed across Colby’s eyes when he heard that. He then nodded at the researcher. “Thanks.”Before the researcher could respond, Colby strode toward the office.I just took my gaze off them for one second, and Jack took that window to create an opportunity for them to be alone. Luckily, I’m confident in my skill. I’m sure there’s no way Jack can easily succeed i
