The abandoned Wife The Unspoken Bouquet
When she turned back, Roxanne saw Lucian pouring two cups of water and putting one each in front of Archie and Benny. She was puzzled. Is he doing that because they asked for it, or is it because he wants to relieve the awkwardness from earlier?Just as her mind was still in a chaotic mess, a cup of water suddenly appeared in front of her.Roxanne came back to her senses and glanced at the person next to her.Lucian smiled at her mysteriously, then retracted his hand from the cup and turned his attention back to the stage.After staring at the cup with mixed emotions for a long while, Roxanne thanked him in a small voice. She felt apologetic because she believed she had misunderstood him earlier.In order to show him that she didn’t hold a grudge, she took a sip of water from the cup he had given her.The children’s lips quirked up when they saw how the adults interacted. They thought Roxanne had lowered her guard.When the concert ended, Lucian and Roxanne left the auditorium with t
The abandoned Wife Revelations and Recollections
Roxanne instinctively glanced at the man walking in front of her before lowering her gaze to look at the flowers in her arms. She hesitated about giving the flowers back to him. However, before she could say anything, the three children came up to her. When they saw the flowers, they were elated.“Mommy, where did you get the flowers? They look pretty, and they match you so well!” Benny praised despite knowing who had given his mother the flowers.A wave of embarra*sment washed over Roxanne at the boy’s question. Right as she was about to lean over to hand the flowers to Estella, she recalled that the man was still holding her wrist.Evidently, that was something the children noticed as well.Upon her realization, Roxanne began to turn red in her face. Nevertheless, she forced herself to smile calmly at the children as she discreetly flung her wrist to break free of the man’s grasp.Yet, the man only tightened his grip.Roxanne frowned and turned to protest.When Lucian met her eyes,
The abandoned Wife Crossroads of Commitment
Her words made Lucian frown as he grimly gazed at her to study her. If he did not mishear what she said, that meant that Roxanne was starting to waver in her stance.Roxanne blinked when her eyes met Lucian’s. Then, she averted her gaze with false calmness.A moment later, Lucian’s deep voice sounded out beside her ear. “I’ve never liked her romantically, and I’ll never marry her. That’s why there’s nothing for me to explain to you.”At that, shock flashed past Roxanne’s eyes.If this were to happen six years ago, she would never expect to hear this from Lucian.He never liked Aubree romantically? How can that be?She could still remember how Lucian had announced that he would only marry Aubree and no one else six years ago. In fact, he did not even mind resorting to emotional abuse to make her leave.If he’s saying this now, then what about what happened six years ago?Lucian’s eyes were on her, so he saw all of the emotions that appeared on her face.When he noticed her shock, he f

Estella pouted and was visibly upset. “I can play with the boys. I don’t need you taking care of me, Ms. Jarvis.” Roxanne felt a pounding headache when the little girl insisted on staying. She decided to try a different approach and said softly, “Why don’t you come another day, Essie? I will surely accompany you by then. I really don’t have the time today.”When the little girl was about to say something, Lucian suddenly voiced, “Essie, Ms. Jarvis told you she’s busy. Don’t disturb her further.”As Roxanne had mentioned the Damaris family just now, his tone was rather clipped.Estella was shocked by her father’s icy tone. She widened her eyes innocently and dared not say anything else as she gave Roxanne puppy dog eyes.The cold wind roused Archie and Benny from their grogginess. Likewise, they were taken aback by their father’s tone.The two boys exchanged glances with each other. We’d better not piss Daddy off in the future. He’s so fierce!Roxanne disapproved of Lucian’s stern man
The abandoned Wife Strategic Manoeuvre
At the Pearson residence, a sulking Aubree locked herself in her room. She was so pissed off about the photos Frieda had sent her in the afternoon that she had no appetite for dinner.She did not expect to receive more photos from Frieda when she was about to sleep.In the photos, the man, whom Aubree could not get to meet no matter what she did, was doing all sorts of service for Roxanne—putting his jacket on her, buying her flowers, and holding her wrist.The two looked just like a couple in love.Rage burned in Aubree as she looked at the photos.They were practically disregarding her position as Lucian’s fiancée.If word got out, not only would she be utterly humiliated, but her dream to become Mrs. Farwell would also be shattered.A vicious look crept over Aubree’s face when she thought of that.“That b*tch! Why did she even come back?”She shot up from her bed and flung the things on the table to the ground.Downstairs, Gina was just worrying about her daughter. Earlier, when s
The abandoned Wife Unforeseen Intentions
That same night, Sonya was preparing to go to bed when Gina called her. Right after she picked up the call, she heard Gina sniffling from the other end of the line and Samuel’s shouts in the background.“Gina, what’s wrong? Did you argue with Samuel?” Sonya asked out of concern.Gina looked at the father-daughter duo, who was acting at the side. Then, she took a deep breath and choked out, “Samuel is angry at Aubree. I think you should hurry and come over. Aubree won’t listen to any of us right now, but maybe you can get through to her.”Sonya frowned and listened carefully. Indeed, she could hear Aubree’s sobs in the background.Because of the car accident before, Sonya was very considerate toward Aubree. Upon hearing the latter crying, she felt her heart clench. “Calm down and talk to me properly. What happened? What made them so worked up?”“It’s all because of…” Gina stopped her sentence midway as if she was reluctant to speak. She then sighed loudly and continued, “You should ju
The abandoned Wife Unforeseen Arrangements
“No! I waited for Lucian for six years. Why should I cancel our engagement?” Aubree protested with teary eyes, making sure to look at Lucian pitifully after speaking. Lucian frowned again when he met her eyes.If this were a typical day, he would surely make things clear with the Pearson family.However, he couldn’t do so now since they got into such a big argument because of the matter.Meanwhile, Samuel’s anger barely dissipated when he heard Aubree’s words. He slammed the table furiously and yelled, “If you don’t cancel it, get out of this house! Don’t come back until you come back to your senses. Get out!”Following that, Samuel strode out of the study with a steely face. As he pa*sed by Lucian, he gave the latter a nod.With knitted brows, Lucian watched Samuel leave. In the study, Aubree continued to sob.Gina looked at her husband and then at her daughter. Feeling lost about who she should persuade first, she turned to Lucian in the end. “Lucian, uh… I don’t think Samuel will
The abandoned Wife Fractured Alliances
As the elevator approached the top floor, the doors slowly opened. Lucian immediately returned to his senses. Upon stepping out of the elevator, the sight of the dimly lit corridor made him frown a little.Aubree quietly followed him from behind.When they arrived at the doorway, Lucian inserted the keycard and opened the door for her. He stopped and looked at her indifferently, waiting for her to enter the room herself.Aubree paused, turning to look at the person beside her. She was silently asking why he was not going inside.“You’ll have to make do with this for the next few days. I’ll try to talk things through with Mr. Pearson. Maybe I can make him calm down and see reason,” said Lucian coldly. He had deliberately turned a blind eye to her questioning expression.Having heard this, Aubree became visibly crestfallen. “Lucian, have you really not figured out why I argued with my dad? Is that all you have to say to me?”Lucian’s expression remained as mild as it was before. “You’r
