The abandoned Wife Tensions Rise: A Confrontation of Suspicion and Intentions
Roxanne could feel Lucian’s heavy gaze on her back. Although her back was facing him, she still could not ignore the fact he was staring at her.Due to Lucian’s presence, she was no longer in the mood to eat anything.“You kids go ahead. I have something to discuss with Mr. Farwell,” said Roxanne softly after taking several quick bites and placing away her cutleries.She could not stand having Lucian staring at her all the time, and she wanted to know why he came to her place.The kids did not think too much about that and nodded obediently in response.Seeing that the kids had agreed to let her go, Roxanne stood up and walked over to Lucian. “Let’s talk in the study.”Lucian nodded casually and stood up, following her to the study.“Mr. Farwell, to what do I owe this pleasure of having you over at my place? Do you have something important to tell me?” Roxanne stood in the center of the study, looking at him warily. “If you’re here to offer me the technical advisor’s position for Her

Lucian stared at Roxanne with a grim expression. Even if she did not say it out explicitly, he could tell that she was still being suspicious of him.Realizing that, Lucian’s expression darkened terribly, while the tone of his voice became colder.“Since you are refusing my offer, Ms. Jarvis, I won’t insist upon it anymore.”With that, he turned around and left the study.As she watched his retreating figure, Roxanne’s eyes glinted with an unfathomable emotion. Confusion filled her heart at that moment.Lucian’s words still left her wondering why he had decided to come all the way to see her in the first place.She wouldn’t believe his claim that he was merely here to provide the medicinal herbs.However, Lucian did not mention anything else besides that.Roxanne mulled over it in the study alone, but she could not find an answer to her doubts.After quite some time, she finally decided to leave the room.Meanwhile, the children had finished their dinner and were playing in the livin

On the way to the Farwell residence, Estella puffed up her cheeks as she sat in the backseat. She stared at her father through the rearview mirror. “Daddy, did you make Ms. Jarvis angry again?”Lucian frowned slightly when he heard Estella’s soft and adorable voice.Estella caught on to the change in Lucian’s expression and knew that she had guessed correctly. She snorted angrily.She had thought that Lucian wanted to bring her to meet Roxanne.However, it turned out he had gone to create trouble for Roxanne instead.“I won’t listen to you anymore, Daddy!” Estella said gloomily.Lucian’s frown deepened. He patiently explained, “It’s because of work.”It’s this excuse again!Estella looked at the rearview mirror unhappily and said, “You only know how to lie to little kids, Daddy.”Lucian’s eye twitched in anger when he heard that.Estella continued listing out her grievances. “You also said that to me the previous time! Earlier tonight, you tricked me into bringing you to Ms. Jarvis t

The next day, Estella got out of bed and waited outside Lucian’s room. She still wanted to convince him to go camping with them. When Lucian opened the door and was about to leave the room, he noticed the girl was standing right before him.Needless to say, Lucian knew her motive.Instead of giving her a chance to speak, he said, “Come. Let’s go and have breakfast. Ms. Jarvis should be arriving shortly.”The girl shook her head, but before she could say something, Lucian interrupted again. “I need to go to the office now. You must obey Ms. Jarvis, okay? Call me if you need anything.”Before Estella could open her mouth and speak, he immediately walked past her and went downstairs.Meanwhile, Catalina was preparing breakfast for them in the dining area.When she saw him walking to the door, she asked in concern, “Breakfast’s ready, Mr. Farwell. Would you like to eat some before leaving?”Lucian continued walking. “I have to leave now. Remember to open the door for Ms. Jarvis later. Sh

The camping location Roxanne had picked was in the suburbs near a mountain. It was a two-hour drive from the city, so they only arrived when it was close to noon. When Roxanne got out of the car, she could not help but sigh in awe while scanning the surroundings. The two-hour drive was worth it.Their camping location was on a lush field with tiny flowers growing all over the place.Roxanne had purposely chosen a wider area to set up their tent. There was also a little forest not far from their spot.The vegetation in the forest was denser, and rabbits would hop out and encircle their visitors from time to time.On the other side was a tiny waterfall, and thanks to the moving water, the surrounding air was quite refreshing and cool.The gurgling sound of water also created a serene vibe. It could not be a more suitable camping site.Happiness was written all over the children’s faces.“It’s so beautiful!” Estella gazed at the scenery, forgetting all the unhappy events that happened t

“What is…” Estella carefully placed the wreath in her hand and shot Roxanne a delighted look. Smiling, Roxanne patted Estella’s head and said, “It looks a little funny because I haven’t made one in a long time.”In response, Estella shook her head fervently. “I love it!”As if to prove how much she loved it, Estella placed it gently in front of her and began drawing it.Seeing that, Roxanne and the boys scooted over curiously, only to be shocked by Estella’s drawing, which was slowly becoming complete.Her previous drawing of the plants was rather decent, though her brushstrokes were a little childish.However, her drawing of the wreath was unbelievable. In fact, it almost looked real.“Essie, you’re amazing!” Benny breathed.Roxanne, too, smiled and nodded in agreement.By the time Estella was done with the drawing, Benny could not help but ask, “Essie, have you taken art cla*ses before?”However, Estella shook her head in confusion.The look of surprise in Benny’s eyes only intensi

Estella was confused, but she still smiled innocently, for she knew Roxanne was praising her. The former then retracted her hand obediently. Subsequently, Roxanne took out the tools she had prepared and carefully scooped out the yellow flower along with its roots.Estella cocked her head to one side, confused by what she saw.“For medicinal herbs like this, we need to preserve their roots as well,” Roxanne explained patiently.Hearing that, the girl nodded even though she did not understand Roxanne’s words completely.Now that Estella knew Roxanne was looking for that kind of flower, the former quickly got up and scoured the area.It did not take long for Estella to find a huge area of it, so Roxanne collected a few more to be preserved.Soon, noon arrived. The children were clearly hungry because their pace had slowed.Noting that, Roxanne brought them back to the tent to prepare food for them.She had woken up early that morning to prepare a various selection of food for the childr

Aubree quickly grew impatient as the group of four didn’t return to their tent even after a long while. She whipped out her phone and sent the private detective a message: Where are you?Logically, he should have arrived before her, but Aubree hadn’t noticed anyone else around when she scanned her surroundings earlier.Where on earth did he go? What a useless man!She furrowed her brows in dismay.Seconds later, her phone screen lit up with a response from the private detective: Look up.The puzzled woman lifted her head and noticed that the leaves of a nearby tree appeared to be rustling.In the next second, she caught sight of a camera flash.Aubree frowned in displeasure and lowered her head as she typed a reply: Keep a close eye on them! Take pictures if anything strange happens and send them to me.The private detective a*sented without hesitation.After that, Aubree cast one last glance in the direction of Roxanne and her kids before slowly driving away.If it was possible, she

The abandoned Wife Deception Unveiled: Aubree's Desperate Plea
Gina panicked at the sight of her daughter’s demeanor. She instinctively turned to look at Samuel. Samuel remained relatively rational, but he was wearing a grimace. “What did you do?”Hearing her father’s question, Aubree lowered her gaze guiltily, her eyelids twitching uncontrollably.Even as the situation progressed to that stage, she was still trying to figure out ways to describe her doings with reduced severity.After contemplating for a few moments, she uttered warily, “I-I contaminated the water Essie drank with bacteria.”Samuel’s and Gina’s faces darkened as soon as they heard that.They had always known Aubree despised Estella and had been mistreating her.However, since Lucian didn’t find out about that, they turned a blind eye to Aubree’s misconduct.Unexpectedly, Aubree’s foolishness knew no boundaries.Noticing the changes in her parents’ mood, Aubree quickly added, “I didn’t do that on purpose. I was just trying to teach the b*tch, Roxanne, a lesson. I wanted those tw
The abandoned Wife Bitter Truths: Aubree's Desperation
Lucian took it with a neutral look. Cory did not intend to hide anything from Lucian. What he had given to Lucian was the camera he had used when he was working on Aubree’s case. Not only was there the evidence in it, but there were also the photos Aubree had asked him to take of Roxanne.After handing the camera to Lucian, Cory began waiting fearfully.Lucian went through the photos.The first photo was the photo Cory had deliberately selected for him—the photo where Aubree was putting the bacteria into the children’s drink.The background of the photo was the field where Roxanne had brought the children.Even though there were only a few photos, Lucian could see the ruthlessness and caution in Aubree’s eyes.Lucian narrowed his eyes. He guessed that Aubree had to have done more things than what these photos showed.He went through the other photos.Most of the photos were photos of Roxanne with Jack, as well as photos of him and Roxanne.Even though Roxanne had accepted him, and ev
The abandoned Wife Unraveling Deception: Lucian's Dilemma
Once Cory shook off his tail, he messaged Aubree while driving. Cory: Our cooperation is over. I’m going to get money from Mr. Farwell now. Good luck, Ms. Pearson.With that sent, he switched off his phone.Given how fearful Aubree was of Lucian, Cory had no doubt she was going to call him fervently.All Cory wanted was money; he would not waste his time playing games with Aubree.When Aubree received Cory’s message, she cursed at her subordinates as she tried to dial Cory’s number again and again.Lucian had already told her that he was going to call off the engagement. If he were to find out what she had done previously, she would be dead meat.Aubree was gripped with regret. She realized she should have given Cory that fifty million.Alas, Cory seemed to have figured out that Aubree would regret her decision, as his phone remained switched off the entire time.Her failed attempts stoked the anger in her, and she threw her phone onto the ground. Then, a wave of terror crashed into
The abandoned Wife The Price of Betrayal: A Deadly Exchange
Lucian said nothing and merely stared at her darkly. Suddenly, he bent down and swooped her up.Shocked, Roxanne instinctively clung to his neck, afraid she would fall to the ground.Her actions happened to play in Lucian’s favor. The violence in his gaze faded a little as he strode to the shore.Roxanne’s cheeks were flushed as she said, “Put me down. I can walk by myself now.”She knew she had scared him. He scooped her up in his arms because he was fearful that something similar would happen once more.Ignoring her protests, Lucian carried her to his car and helped her settle into the pa*senger seat. He retrieved his suit jacket from the backseat and draped it over her shoulders before taking his place behind the wheel.Noticing he was still mad at her, Roxanne felt utterly helpless. “Didn’t we come here to relax? That was just a tiny accident.”Lucian’s brows were still knitted together. Deep down, she let out a sigh and said coyly, “You promised to give me a handmade shell brace
The abandoned Wife Whispers of the Waves: Unexpected Encounters and Unspoken Desires
Not long after, the car rolled to a stop before a beach. Roxanne felt her heart relax at the sight of the vast ocean.It had been some time since she had last come to the beach.Six years ago, before their separation, she would visit the beach alone to find solace whenever Lucian hurt her feelings.After giving birth to Archie and Benny, Roxanne would relax by spending time playing with them.Every time she spent time playing with the children, she would eventually feel rejuvenated.To her surprise, she felt the same way today at the sight of the endless sea before her.“I recall you used to come to the beach frequently in the past.” Lucian’s voice echoed in her ear as he reminisced about old times. “After you left, I’d also come to the beach whenever I felt tired. It was a great feeling.”With that, he clasped her hand and led her to the beach.It was a weekday, so there was no one in sight.Roxanne hesitated briefly and allowed him to lead her to the beach.They strolled along the
The abandoned Wife Unraveling Hearts: Kindergarten Confessions and Unplanned Detours
Pippa chuckled and shook her head when she saw how excited the kids were. They are rarely this happy, so why not let them have some fun?She flashed a smile and watched them from the side, lest they get into any accidents.Another teaching a*sistant from the same cla*s approached her and whispered, “Ms. Ward, how is Mr. Farwell related to Archie and Benny’s mother?”Pippa froze in surprise. She recalled Lucian’s words earlier and how Estella had addressed Roxanne this morning.It was evident that there was more to their relationship than either of them was letting on although they had not been explicit about it.In the event that a member of the Farwell family wished to pick up Estella, Lucian would need to be notified by phone, whereas Roxanne could collect her without prior authorization.It could be said that Roxanne was much more important to Lucian than his family.However, she wasn’t sure if they were ready to go public with their relationship.Pippa gave the teaching a*sistant
The abandoned Wife A Day of Surprises: Kindergarten Chaos and Car Conundrums
“Did I say anything wrong? I’m more than happy to help pick Archie and Benny up and look after them if you can’t make it. Do you not want my help?” Lucian replied in the most matter-of-fact tone possible. He then eyed Roxanne from head to toe as he continued, “If you don’t want me to do that, I can have Cayden—”Roxanne knew just how persistent he could get, so she quickly cut him off, “All right, I’ll pick Essie up if you’re too busy.”Satisfied with her answer, Lucian nodded slowly in response.Looking at the time on her watch, Roxanne said, “Anyway, I need to get to work now. See you later in the evening.”She was worried about the research institute, as it had been without a leader for two days straight.Roxanne was about to leave when Lucian called out to her with a displeased frown, “That’s it? Are you just going to leave like that?”She paused in her tracks and let out a helpless sigh in response.Lucian seemed to have changed completely ever since I agreed to let him court me
The abandoned Wife Unexpected Arrangements at the Kindergarten Gate
Archie and Benny got up really early on Monday morning. They had already prepared warm milk and sandwiches by the time Roxanne made her way down the stairs.She chuckled in amusement when she saw how excited they were.“Hurry up and eat your breakfast, Mommy! You need to send us to the kindergarten soon!” Benny said while handing her the gla*s of warm milk.Roxanne nodded with a smile and joined them for breakfast before getting into the car with them.Archie and Benny had been somewhat depressed since Estella transferred to another kindergarten.Now that Estella had returned, Archie and Benny were excited about attending cla*ses again.Upon arriving at the kindergarten, Roxanne saw Estella standing next to Lucian while he spoke to Pippa and Jeffrey.“Mr. Farwell! Essie!” Archie and Benny shouted excitedly from the car window.Roxanne couldn’t help but smile as she brought them out of the car.The boys hurried up to Estella and gave her a big hug from both sides.“Welcome back, Essie
The abandoned Wife Familial Confrontation: Unraveling the Farwell Dynamics
Roxanne felt a strange sense of familiarity upon hearing Sonya’s words. She found Sonya’s actions hilarious when she suddenly thought about how similar the latter’s words sounded to those TV dramas and novels.Unaware of it, Sonya continued, “Six years ago, you were the one who decided to leave Lucian. No one forced you to do so. Do you think the Farwell residence is somewhere you can come and go as you please?”Roxanne tried to suppress her emotions and thoughts when Sonya brought up what had happened six years ago. “You’ve got the wrong idea. It’s not something I can decide on my own, whether it was my leaving six years ago or how far I have progressed with Lucian now.”Sonya didn’t expect Roxanne’s retort, and she grew displeased.Roxanne continued to state matter-of-factly, “Even though you guys were aware of Lucian’s feelings for Aubree six years ago, you forced me to stand in the way of their relationship because your family needed a joyous event to bring Lucian’s grandfather g
