A hint of displeasure flashed across Sonya’s eyes at Aubree’s concern for Estella and at the thought of Lucian rejecting her suggestion.A hint of displeasure flashed across Sonya’s eyes at Aubree’s concern for Estella and at the thought of Lucian rejecting her suggestion. If her son had heeded her words over the years to have Estella spend time with Aubree, Estella might not be so attached to Roxanne, given Aubree’s fondness for Estella.Estella, too, would have no need for Roxanne.Aubree made a remorseful face. “To be honest, I’m still slightly envious of Ms. Jarvis and how she gained Essie’s favor so quickly. It would be nice if Essie were that fond of me.”Aubree glanced slyly at Sonya, who frowned at those words.“What nonsense!” she snapped. “If you are to become Essie’s mother, it’s only a matter of time before she becomes fond of you. Who does that woman think she is, anyway? I’ve told her I will make her life in Horington difficult if she tries to contact Lucian and Essie a

As she had fallen asleep late the night before, Roxanne slept deeply but was awoken by her phone ringing early the following morning.As she had fallen asleep late the night before, Roxanne slept deeply but was awoken by her phone ringing early the following morning. Unable to marshal her thoughts into coherence immediately upon waking up, she reached out blindly around her pillow for a long time before locating the source of the noise.Upon obtaining her phone and squinting at the screen, Roxanne answered groggily.Colby sounded very anxious on the other end. “Something’s happened, Dr. Jarvis.”Wide awake suddenly, Roxanne sat bolt upright. “What is it?” she asked hoarsely.“A shipment of medicinal herb supplies we expected to receive this morning is still nowhere to be seen.” Colby looked grave.The medicinal herb supplier the research institute partnered with was usually very punctual in delivering their supply.If a morning delivery had been promised, the research institute would

After a series of calls back and forth, the only knowledge the pair learned was how the partners truly felt and that somebody was complicating matters for them from the shadows.After a series of calls back and forth, the only knowledge the pair learned was how the partners truly felt and that somebody was complicating matters for them from the shadows. However, no medical supplies was sent to the research until then.In a panic, Roxanne thought of Larry as she remembered him mentioning during their last medical conference that he wished to establish himself in Chanaea and would likely stay in Horington.With his reputation in the medical world and the standing of the Morrison family in Horington, Larry would undoubtedly have connections.A dash of hope lifted Roxanne’s spirits by that thought. “I’m going to call a friend,” she said to Colby, before getting her phone to give Larry a call.The other end picked up almost immediately. “What can I do for you, Roxanne?” came Larry’s deep

Remembering their last meeting at the coffee shop, Sonya’s message was obvious. There would be consequences if she were to make any further contact with Lucian. I hadn’t actually met up with that man since that time.Roxanne had, in actuality, went as far as to make plans to relocate overseas with her children once her business in Chanaea was concluded.Hence, the timing of Sonya’s decision to strike at her now benefitted no one, not even Sonya herself.Roxanne’s head was throbbing hard. Somewhat vexed, she pulled out her handphone with the intention of calling Sonya up to question the latter.After dialing her number several times, she received as many automated responses, making it apparent that she had been blacklisted.A dejected Roxanne switched off her phone and went over to Colby at the side. “I’m sorry that the research institute has been affected because of my personal matters.”Having heard her phone conversation with Larry and the change in her demeanor afterward, Colby mo

After they chatted a little longer, Roxanne called Jonathan on the phone. It did not take long for him to answer her call. “Dr. Jarvis, is something the matter?”They had not contacted each other after Alfred’s birthday banquet, so Jonathan was a little puzzled that she had suddenly called him.Roxanne played it cool and asked, “Is Old Mr. Queen at home? I was thinking of visiting to check on his condition and recovery progress.”Jonathan agreed immediately. “That’s so thoughtful of you. He’s at home, so come on over.”After confirming that Alfred was home, Roxanne hung up, picked up her medical kit, and headed for the Queen residence.When she arrived at the gates to the Queen residence, the butler was already waiting there.The butler greeted her respectfully when he saw her. “Ms. Jarvis, Mr. Queen asked me to meet you here. He’s waiting for you in the living room.”She nodded and followed the butler toward the mansion.While walking, she pondered how to broach the subject with Jon

Roxanne chuckled without saying anything. Looking up at Jonathan standing opposite her, she said with a smile, “The reason for my visit this time is also because there’s something I need Mr. Queen’s help with.” Jonathan agreed readily. “How can I be of help, Dr. Jarvis?”Just as she was about to respond, Alfred waved his large hand dismissively. “Don’t talk about it here. Lunch should be ready by now. Why don’t you have lunch with us, Dr. Jarvis? The two of you can talk while you eat.”A torn expression flashed across Roxanne’s face upon hearing that.Instead of saying that my visit here is to seek Jonathan’s help, it’d be more accurate to say I’m here to confront him. But with Old Mr. Queen welcoming her so warmly, I don’t know if I’ll be able to bring myself to question Jonathan!“Dr. Jarvis, you have made a trip all the way here, so stay and join us for a meal,” Jonathan chimed in too.With that, he helped Alfred into the mansion.Roxanne had no choice but to follow them, abandoni

Back at the Queen residence, Alfred wore an ugly scowl after Roxanne left. The caregiver came to bring him out for his daily exercise, but Alfred snapped, “I won’t be exercising today. You can leave now.”With that said, he turned to Jonathan and demanded, “You promised to collaborate with Dr. Jarvis’ research institute, but why is this happening? You didn’t even realize it until Dr. Jarvis showed up earlier. What if Dr. Jarvis didn’t come to demand an explanation? Is Queen Group going to be known for not keeping its word?”Jonathan bowed respectfully and allowed Alfred to yell at him. When Alfred was done talking, he parted his lips and admitted his mistake. “Grandpa, it was my negligence. I shall start an investigation now and give Dr. Jarvis an explanation. Queen Group’s reputation won’t be affected!”Alfred banged his cane on the ground angrily. “Investigate it now! I shall investigate alongside you to find out who the culprit is. We can’t let one bad apple spoil the whole bunch.

“Who ordered you to do it? Spill the truth. I want to know who in Queen Group dared to defy my orders!” Alfred declared furiously. Hearing that, Rex was close to tears. If I reveal the person right now, Old Mr. Queen will definitely punish her! I don’t dare to do that. As he didn’t utter a word, Alfred harrumphed unhappily. “Since you refuse to say anything, I’ll a*sume it was your idea.” He whipped his head around and told Jonathan, “He works for you, so you can decide what to do with him!” Rex didn’t want to be held accountable for such a huge mistake, so he immediately protested, “No, Old Mr. Queen. I dare not do that!” “Who is it then?” Jonathan rose to his feet and glowered at him. The chilling aura surrounding his body was almost palpable. Rex lowered his head and revealed cautiously, “It is Ms. Frieda.” Frieda? Hearing that, Jonathan and Alfred could barely hide their shock. They couldn’t understand why Frieda would do something detrimental to the Queen family when she

Meanwhile, Roxanne was still lost in a daze. “Madilyn, what…”Cocking a brow, Madilyn stepped aside to usher them in. “Come onboard. I’m here to pick you up.”Roxanne was blown away by the words.Is she asking us to get in the helicopter and leave just like that? We might be able to escape this time, but what about when the reporters come for us again?When she saw Roxanne remaining motionless, the puzzled Madilyn urged her, “Hurry up! What are you still hesitating for? Whatever concerns you have, we’ll discuss it on board.”She extended her hand while speaking.With the helicopter hovering right before her eyes, Roxanne realized that Madilyn’s effort would go to waste if she didn’t get on.Holding that thought, Roxanne took the latter’s hand. Given how close the helicopter was, all she needed to do was take a step forward to board it.After carrying Estella over, Roxanne turned around to do the same with the boys. Little did she expect them to be raring to go.Reciprocating their ent

It wasn’t until Lucian heard Madilyn’s words that he realized her point and stopped in his tracks.“This whole incident might just blow over if you don’t show up, but it will definitely worsen if you make an appearance. If that happens, they might even swarm Farwell Group along with Roxanne’s house!” Madilyn reminded him.She knew the mentality of those journalists all too well.Lucian clenched his fists so tightly that his veins were bulging from underneath his skin. “What should I do, then?” he asked while trying to suppress his anger.I wouldn’t have acted so impulsively if I knew this would happen!Madilyn rolled her eyes at him in response. Why is he asking us for a solution when he’s the one who caused all this?“Mr. Farwell, how about we send someone over to get Mrs. Farwell out of there?” Cayden suggested cautiously.“How are you going to do that? There are so many journalists around!” Madilyn snapped at him.Cayden fell silent and flashed her an awkward look in response.“If
The abandoned Wife Media Storm: Roxanne's Dilemma
News about the Farwell family’s two additional young heirs, who were given birth by Lucian’s ex-wife, caused an uproar in Horington.Of course, the journalists took action almost immediately. No one knew how they got the information, but they found and swarmed around Roxanne’s research institute and mansion.Roxanne was still asleep when she received a call from Linda telling her not to leave the house that day.When Roxanne received that call, she was still in a daze.However, the moment she got out of bed and saw the crowd outside, she panicked.The crowd was clearly there because of Farwell Group’s statement yesterday.Noticing her room’s curtains were pulled open, the crowd downstairs hurriedly focused their cameras in the direction of her room window and began snapping pictures.Shocked, Roxanne hastily drew her curtains.At the same time, her phone rang again.She grabbed it to take a glance, only to see it was from an unknown number.Suspicious, she answered it. The person on t

“It was Lucian who let Essie stay with me. So, if you want to take her away, you’ll have to get his consent first,” Roxanne emphasized without a change in her expression.The little girl in her embrace immediately chimed in, “I’ll do what Daddy says!”As Sonya watched the mother and daughter duo presenting a united front, she felt her temples throb.After all, her son had already made such a statement. The answer she would get could not be more obvious if she made the call.Roxanne’s saying that because she has no plans to let me take my granddaughter away! Most importantly, my son is siding with her. Ugh! I can’t do anything about it.After waiting for some time and seeing that Sonya didn’t take any action, Roxanne said, “If you don’t want to make the call, then please leave now. It’s getting late, and the children are hungry. I don’t have the energy to prepare another person’s portion.”With that, Roxanne put Estella down and gestured for the boys to take Estella upstairs.Once the
The abandoned Wife A Mother's Stand
Originally, Sonya did not intend to cause trouble for Roxanne at such an hour.Yet she did not expect her son to release such a shocking announcement on the internet, and she only found out while she was having dinner.Sonya was so incensed that she didn’t even finish dinner. After throwing her cutleries in a rage, she set off and drove to Roxanne’s house.She was determined to make Lucian and Estella cut ties with Roxanne as soon as possible.Now that Sonya saw how dependent Estella was on Roxanne, her anger was further fueled.“Roxanne Jarvis, give me back my granddaughter,” she uttered frostily as if Roxanne had snatched Estella away from her.Sensing Estella’s nervousness, Roxanne gripped the former’s hand to soothe her anxiety. Next, Roxanne lifted her head to face the woman opposite her.If this had happened in the past, Roxanne might not know how to respond to a demand like this.However, things were different now. She was Estella’s mother, so she had the right to keep Estella
The abandoned Wife Unexpected Visitor
The boys were exhilarated for nearly the whole day after seeing the announcement in the morning.When night fell, Roxanne had just stepped into the house when Archie and Benny flung themselves at her in excitement. “Mommy!”She was slightly perplexed by their gleeful demeanor. “What’s going on? Did something nice happen in the kindergarten?”As soon as she ended her sentence, she glanced at Estella and was puzzled. If something did happen in the kindergarten, why isn’t Essie acting the same way as them?Upon detecting his mother’s confusion, Archie said, “Didn’t you see the news on the internet?”That confounded Roxanne even further. What news on the internet?Excitedly, Benny added, “Mr. Farwell claimed that we’re his children, just like Essie!”Did I hear that right? Lucian said Archie and Benny are his children? How’s that possible? Roxanne was stunned.He could tell his mother was befuddled, so he grabbed the laptop, clicked on a public forum, and showed it to her.Farwell Group’s

Jonathan’s jaw dropped open in disbelief. If they aren’t his, why does he look so calm in comparison to me, who is freaking out?“What are you thinking?” He shot Lucian an incredulous look. “If you want to help Roxanne by stopping the haters online, then you can just publicize your relationship with her and issue warning letters through your lawyer. Why would you do this?”If it was revealed that the CEO of Farwell Group had claimed to be the biological father of his ex-wife’s children even though they were not his, no one would believe it. It sounded pretty ridiculous, but that was exactly what Lucian did.“If I only did that, the netizens will still a*sume the worst about the boys’ father.” Displeasure flashed across Lucian’s eyes as he explained, “The kids are innocent. If she’s willing to marry me, it will only be a matter of time before the boys become mine, too.”Lucian knew very well that the last thing Roxanne wanted was to drag the kids into her mess, so he was more than wil

Soon, some recalled Roxanne’s previous scandal after reading the statement. One comment read: So what happened between Mr. Farwell and Aubree Pearson?Another read: Isn’t that obvious? Aubree is the homewrecker. She was the one who faked the rumors so Roxanne would give up on Mr. Farwell!One netizen replied: But what about Roxanne and Jack? They had been involved in two scandals. Besides, they seem to be on good terms.Another comment read: Isn’t that obvious? They are both capable doctors. Besides, the recent medical consultations were all initiated by the Damaris family. It’s normal for them to be on good terms!Many online users expressed their disapproval of Aubree, while the rest offered their support and blessing to Roxanne and Lucian.Now that Roxanne and Jack’s relationship was clarified, everyone thought Roxanne and Lucian were the perfect couple.One comment read: I heard that Roxanne had participated in various medical consultations recently. A while ago, someone ran into
The abandoned Wife The Midnight Revelation
The medicinal herb company owned by the Damaris family was mainly run by their own people, leaving outsiders nothing but envy. Lucian went silent after hearing that.However, that piqued Jonathan’s interest. “Why? Is Roxanne working with the Damaris family again? Do you need my help with anything?”Lucian managed to detect the hint of derision in his voice and snickered. “Go on and acquire the Damaris family’s medicinal herbs company if you’d really like to help.”Jonathan rubbed his nose sheepishly and said, “Well, anything but that.”“Then there’s nothing you can do. Bye.”Lucian hung up the call right after that.Jonathan’s face was full of reproach as he watched his phone screen go dark.That was the second time Lucian had woken him up in the middle of the night and hung up after dropping a bomb on him.It had taken him considerable effort to finally drift off to sleep.Great. It looks like I won’t be able to sleep at all tonight, either!Jonathan lay back down in bed, scrolling
