The abandoned Wife The Unexpected Encounter
For some inexplicable reason, however, only their father’s countenance flashed across theirminds whenever they imagined a man with their mother.How strange. We’ve never seen Mommy and Daddy standing side by side, but we instinctively feel that Daddy is the only one who’s worthy of standing by Mommy’s side. Therefore, it’s best that we keep a distance from Mr. Galloway!“Thank you, Mr. Galloway, but my mommy already has a date tonight. So, it’s okay,” Archie declined politely.Colby looked at Roxanne in mystification.Throughout the day, he hadn’t heard her mentioning about a date that night.Roxanne swept a gaze over Archie and Benny. While she couldn’t fathom why they lied, she still went along with them. “I have a dinner date with my best friend tonight. I’ll take a rain check.”At that, Colby flashed her a warm smile. “I’m all muddled from work that I forgot to ask whether you have plans later. In that case, I’ll head off first.”After saying that, he bid Archie and Benny farewel

Enraged at the end of the day, she had asked Frieda out to shop in a bid to dissipate her anger.However, never had she expected to hear such news.Countless renowned doctors were helpless in the face of Old Mr. Queen’s condition, yet Roxanne managed to cure him. That aside, Jonathan even signed a contract with her, promising to supply medicinal herbs to the research institute at half the price! In that case, haven’t my efforts of urging the medicinal herbs suppliers in Horington to boycott her research institute been in vain?At that line of thought, Aubree’s gaze turned chilly. “Didn’t I arrange for a medical team to treat Old Mr. Queen? Were they not effective? Why was she allowed to take over his treatment?”While saying that, she glanced at the woman who was meters away from her with fury blazing within her.I’ve gone to such lengths, but she still managed to find a medicinal herb supplier in Horington! She must have laughed at me behind my back!Frieda was startled for a moment

Archie and Benny proceeded to compare Aubree with Roxanne from head to toe. In the end. they felt that she was all too far beneath their mother.Daddy actually abandoned Mommy for that woman? How blind of him!After inwardly disdaining him for a while, Archie suddenly remembered the conversation in the restaurant earlier. He leaned close to Roxanne and inquired, “Mommy, what did you mean when you said that the woman sabotaged you just now? Did she pick on you?”Roxanne didn’t want to involve her two sons in the mess, so she denied it casually, “It’s nothing. It was just a work issue, and it has been resolved.”No sooner had she said that than Archie’s determined voice rang out beside her ear.“She did pick on you, then! What happened exactly? Hurry up and tell us, Mommy!” The boy’s petite face was stretched taut, and he frowned in an adult-like manner.“Didn’t we promise each other that there can be no secrets between us, Mommy? You can’t lie to us!” Benny seconded.Roxanne’s brows kn

Archie and Benny nodded.When they saw Roxanne leave, their eyes glinted with mischief.Roxanne was not the slightest bit suspicious of the boys.After all, they had always been obedient children who never showed any signs of aversion toward kindergarten. Naturally, they would not pretend to be sick to avoid school.After ending the call, Roxanne brought the boys some warm water and indigestion pills.The children did everything they were told.Roxanne had wanted to go to the research institute. However, she chose to work from home in the end since the children were unwell.After settling Archie and Benny, Roxanne got up and went into the study.When the boys heard the study door shut, they were instantly in high spirits and they no longer showed signs of exhaustion from earlier.Benny switched on the laptop on his bed, smiling happily when he saw that his virus had not been cracked.“That evil woman must be at the office at this time,” Archie said with certainty while looking at the

Aubree bit her lip. In the end, she had no choice but to give in.Samuel shot her a glare and dialed Lucian’s number, asking the latter to send some men over to solve the problem.Upon receiving the news, Lucian merely asked Cayden to pick someone randomly from the technical department and send him to Pearson Group.The employee sent by Lucian was clearly more skilled than the ones at Pearson Group.The employees of Pearson Group were powerless against the virus for the entire morning, yet Lucian’s employee took only one glance before he started tapping away on the keyboard.Those who were in the same industry could easily see that the virus had almost been cracked byFarwell Group’s employee.Meanwhile, Roxanne returned to the study after making sure that Archie and Benny were fine.Archie returned his gaze to the laptop screen and studied the stock prices.After he studied it for some time, a series of codes appeared on the screen.“Benny, look!” Archie immediately called out to Ben

Lucian’s hand hung in the air, and his voice stopped abruptly as he turned around helplessly to watch his daughter reach the car.He watched her climb into the car before retracting his gaze and scanning the remaining children.Even so, there were no signs of the twins.“Mr. Farwell…” One teacher noticed he seemed to be looking for someone. Her heart skipped a beat, and she hurried over cautiously.Lucian shifted his gaze and stared at the person in front of him expressionlessly. “Where are the twins? Have they been expelled?”The teacher lowered her head guiltily. “Not yet. I wanted to tell them about the news when they came to school. But Ms. Jarvis called me this morning, saying the boys were feeling unwell, so I didn’t get to tell—”“Okay,” Lucian said curtly and strode to the car without waiting for the teacher to react.In the car, Estella hugged her schoolbag and rested her head on it, her eyes downcast. She looked as if she was pondering something.Seeing Lucian entering the c

Estella blinked, and her sobs reduced. Still in disbelief, she pursed her lips.She had heard Lucian talking to her teacher with her own cars, and the two boys were absent from kindergarten that day.How could there be such a coincidence?Lucian sensed her doubt, which made him feel even more helpless. “There’s no need for me to lie to you. They didn’t go to school today because they were unwell. You’ll see them tomorrow.”Estella continued to purse her lips aggrievedly. Suspicion was written all over her face.Lucian was at a loss for what to do. “How should I make you believe me?”Never did he expect Archie and Benny to have such an important place in Estella’s heart. They were so important to the point that she did not believe his words.Estella hesitated for a moment and let Catalina put her down. She then picked up a small notebook from the pile of mess and scribbled something while sobbing. Her squiggly writing read: Confirm!She wanted to hear the boys tell her that they were n

Archie and Benny exchanged gazes when they saw Estella in such a state. They found her cute yet pitiful at the same time.“We weren’t feeling well this morning. We’re much better now. Don’t worry,” Archie reassured earnestly.Benny turned to Essie and made a face. “Look at you, all scared like that. We’re just taking a day off. Can’t you be away from us for just a day? You little minion.”A sense of relief washed over Estella when she heard their words, and she broke into a smile.Lucian, who was standing at the entrance of the dining room, looked conflicted when he saw Estella finally smiling,It took me so long to coax hcr, yet it was nothing compared to the trio’s words. Not only did she stop crying. she even smiled.After standing there for some time and watching the boys making Estella grin from ear to car, he stepped into the room, wanting to take her home.They had only come over because Estella wanted to confirm things with her own eyes. Now that it was done, it was time for t

Roxanne was rendered speechless at that. After all, it was indeed true that the three of them had been in charge of the project since the beginning.Naturally, I wouldn’t shoot myself in the foot, so that leaves only Jack and Colby. That being said, I don’t want to doubt any of them since one of them is the project leader while the other is my longtime partner.Seeing how adamant she was, Lucian felt his anger rise. “If I remember correctly, Jack had something to do with the fire incident at the research institute previously as well.”Hearing that, Roxanne gave him a confused look. Why would he say something like that?She then said, “Mr. Damaris left after delivering those medicines, so what do you mean when you said that incident has something to do with him?”Not wanting to get into an argument with Lucian, she reined in her temper and added gently, “You of all people should know how those medicines came to be, so why would Mr. Damaris do something that won’t benefit him at all?A

After a long pause, Lucian tamped down the emotions in his eyes and said calmly, “I’ve asked the specialists to check on you. They’ll be here soon.” No sooner had he said that, several specialists came rushing over.They were horrified when they saw Roxanne sitting up in the hospital bed. “Ms. Jarvis, please lie down quickly. There’s still residual toxins in your body that has yet to be flushed out. We want to perform a check-up on you, then prescribe some targeted medication.”She was very clear-headed when it came to her condition, and she replied, “There’s no need for that. It has been cleared.”The others frowned, their expressions reflecting their disbelief. “How is that possible?”We all saw for ourselves how serious her condition was yesterday. How could she have gotten better after just one night’s sleep?Roxanne merely smiled and did not say anything.Utterly incredulous, a few of them stepped forward to check on her.After they did so, everyone could not help but feel dumbf

Roxanne patted Archie’s and Benny’s heads soothingly. “Mommy, how are you feeling? Do you feel any discomfort?”Archie and Benny stared at her with concern.Roxanne could see her pale expression reflected in her children’s eyes, so it was completely understandable that they were really worried.Roxanne stated apologetically, “I’m all right now. I must have scared you guys yesterday. I’m sorry for that.”Benny reminded her in his childish voice, “You have already apologized to us yesterday! Also, we don’t need you to apologize because we only want you to be healthy and well!”Roxanne felt touched by their words, and a smile spread across her face.“Essie is also worried about Mommy. She was so scared she burst into tears when she dreamt that you fell unconscious.”When Benny noticed Estella hiding behind the other children, he took a step back so Roxanne could see her.Estella’s head was lowered as she sneaked a peek at Roxanne.She remembered Roxanne flatly refusing to let her call t
The abandoned Wife Echoes of Compassion: Healing Hearts and Minds
The following morning, Roxanne had already woken up by the time Lucian did. Her brows remained furrowed while she removed the needles for herself. Lucian glanced at his empty palm, then shifted his gaze to look at the woman before him. In a hoarse voice, he asked, “When did you wake up? Why didn’t you wake me up?”Roxanne was too focused on the task and only realized the man was awake after hearing his voice. She hesitated for a moment, then continued with what she had been doing.“You look like you were sound asleep. Besides, I am feeling better now, so I didn’t wake you up.”She did not spare the man a glance as she spoke.It was worth noting that Roxanne felt as if it was like a dream when she woke up to the sight of Lucian taking a short rest while holding her hand tightly earlier.But soon after, the memories of what happened last night while she was half-asleep came to her mind.She knew very well it was not a dream. Lucian had indeed taken care of her for the whole night.For
The abandoned Wife Whispers of the Heart: Bonds of Love and Family
It was Lucian’s second time hearing Estella addressing Roxanne in that way in the period of merely one night. When Lucian saw the girl’s timid look, he frowned but could not bring himself to say anything to her.Once Estella realized her father was not asking her to change the way she called Roxanne, her eyes lit up, and she turned to look at Archie and Benny with delight on her face.If Roxanne had not been asleep, the children would have cheered out loud.Confusion danced across Lucian’s eyes at the sight of their happiness, but he did not ask them any questions. The only thing he said was, “It’s getting late, so hurry back to sleep.”After making sure that Roxanne was fine and receiving the unexpected surprise, the children quickly agreed to that and followed Lucian out of the ward.After sending the children back to the ward next door, Lucian found his heart skipping a beat as he looked at the way they were staring at him.I think I know why they’re happy now.“Daddy.”Estella wa

Roxanne was someone who knew how and when to keep a distance from others. Even if she were to find out what happened that night, she would only a*sume that Lucian was being helpful by stopping Jack.Lucian was certain about that.Jack paled.“I just want to take a look at her. Also, there’s something I want to ask her about,” Jack said, wanting to find out more about the situation this time.However, seemingly having read his mind, Lucian uttered, “The three of us are the only ones here. There’s no need for you to put up a show, Mr. Damaris.”Jack frowned in confusion. “What are you talking about?”“I’ve already gotten my men to look into it. There were only three people who were involved in this experiment at the research institute.” Lucian’s tone was cold as he spoke. “The other person has been working with Roxanne for many years. I doubt he has the need to do something stupid like this. Therefore, you’re the only suspect left.”Jack was taken aback.He never thought that someone w

Jonathan brought the children to the restaurant and ordered a bunch of food for them. However, they didn’t appear to have any appetite.“I thought you all were hungry?” Their reaction confounded Jonathan.In response, Estella slowly took a bite of a dessert. I’m not hungry. I just don’t want to stay with that bad lady. Why is she still hanging around the hospital after Daddy asked her to leave?Archie and Benny were also pretty distracted.They only left with Jonathan because they wanted to give their parents some private time.Nonetheless, ever since they left the hospital, they started to regret their decision because they recalled their parents always argued whenever they spent time together.They were afraid the same scenario would occur again.“You three aren’t actually hungry, am I right?” Jonathan grinned when he saw through them.In response, the children lowered their heads guiltily with tightened fists.A tinge of confusion flashed past his eyes when he saw the children act

“Roxanne?” Lucian’s heart wrenched as he walked over to the hospital bed and called out softly to the person lying there.However, Roxanne’s eyelids were heavy. She wanted to respond but lacked the energy. Sleep was all she wished for.Lucian grew increasingly gloomy as she became more drowsy.After a long time, he angrily opened the ward door and glared at the specialist waiting outside.“M-Mr. Farwell…”One of the specialists had stayed behind and waited outside the door just in case, following Roxanne’s sudden headache earlier.The specialist did not expect that he would have to face the furious Lucian alone, and he shuddered internally.Lucian’s face clouded over. “What injection did you give her? Why is she so sleepy after the shot?” he asked.When the specialist heard that, he exhaled in relief before a*suring him, “Well, this is because Ms. Jarvis was tormented by pain for the whole day and also suffered a drastic change of emotions earlier, we added some sedatives to the pain

Lucian couldn’t hear what Jonathan told them, but he did notice the rapid change in their facial expressions. It didn’t take long before Jonathan successfully convinced the kids to go with him.“I’ll take the kids out for a meal and bring them back here in a bit. You should go keep Dr. Jarvis company!” he said with all three of the kids standing next to him.Lucian nodded. “Thanks a lot.”Jonathan simply let out a casual chuckle and led the kids into the elevator.There was still a hint of doubt in Lucian’s eyes as he watched the elevator doors close, but he figured it would be safe to entrust Jonathan with the kids.After taking a few seconds to recollect himself, Lucian turned around and made his way into the ward.Unbeknownst to him, Roxanne had heard his footsteps from inside the ward. Realizing that Lucian was coming in alone this time, she quickly closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep.“I’ve been doing a lot of thinking. I can’t force you to accept me after this incident,
