Back at the Pearson residence, Aubree went back to her room after sending the message.

She didn’t know what Sonya’s reaction would be, but she was sure Sonya’s impression of Roxanne would be completely ruined.

Gina was still sitting downstairs, wondering if she should call Sonya and add fuel to the fire.

Just when she took out her phone and was about to make the call, her doorbell suddenly rang.

Gina kept her phone and went to open the door.

She was surprised to see Sonya standing there.

“Where’s Aubree?” Sonya smiled gently at Gina, suppressing her anger.

Only then did Gina regain her senses and realize this visit was the effect of the photos Aubree had sent, but she didn’t know what Sonya was going to say.

Gina could barely suppress the smugness in her heart. After some time, she pointed to the room upstairs and said, “She came back early in the morning and went upstairs. She seems to be in a bad mood, but I didn’t dare to ask.”

Upon hearing that, Sonya felt slightly apologetic.

    “I believe Mr. Farwell will be happy to,” Jack said ambiguously before glancing at Roxanne. Roxanne had sharp senses and could feel Jack’s eyes on her. When he heard his words, her feeling that something was off intensified.Colby’s eyes also darkened when he noticed Jack’s cryptic gaze.Although he didn’t know the truth behind many of the incidents, Jack’s eyes revealed many things.Last time, when Roxanne was under fire, I remember Farwell Group took action in the end. This time, she became Herbscape Group’s technical advisor, and soon, Herbscape Group was involved in a big scandal. No one would believe it if Lucian didn’t do all those things for her. Moreover, I saw him appear in her house in the middle of the night. Lucian and Roxanne are already so close. Now, there’s Jack in the picture.Colby’s heart was filled with jealousy when he realized how competent the other men around Roxanne were compared to him.I have no chance of competing with them unless I can be like them and be

  • The abandoned Wife    Seeking Answers

    Colby’s expression changed again and again. After a long moment, he finally said awkwardly, “This is Dr. Jarvis’ privacy. Mr. Damaris, I only brought it up to you because I thought you knew about it. But it seems to me now that you aren’t aware of it, so let’s drop that topic.”Jack raised his brows and glanced at Colby. The dubious look in his eyes was enough to tell what he was thinking at that moment.Colby was startled for a few seconds, feeling embarra*sed. However, on second thought, he knew he would have to get in the Damaris family’s good book if he wanted to soar to a career height on par with Roxanne’s.Suppressing the unpleasant emotions in his heart, he started sharing his history with Roxanne. “I met Dr. Jarvis when she was living abroad, and we worked together multiple times after that. After returning to the country, I thought I would lose contact with Dr. Jarvis. But surprisingly, she returned to the country shortly after I did. She even started operating this researc

  • The abandoned Wife    Parental Concerns and Unspoken Desires

    Roxanne finally arrived at the Farwell residence. She tried her best to suppress the disquiet in her heart before pressing on the doorbell. This time around, it was still Catalina who answered the intercom.A look of helplessness showed on Catalina’s face when she saw who the visitor was.“Catalina, is Essie back yet?” asked Roxanne as she eyed her cautiously from the screen.Catalina sighed quietly to herself and shook her head when she recalled Lucian’s instructions. “Not yet.”Roxanne’s gaze darkened when she heard her reply. She forced a smile and asked, “Then can I go in and wait for her?”Catalina could not bear to turn her down. However, she still shook her head in the end and said, “It’s better that you leave.”Lucian had looked displeased when he returned home with Estella and instructed Catalina to deny Roxanne entry if she came.Although Catalina felt sorry for Roxanne, she dared not disobey Lucian, particularly when Lucian was obviously still very angry.Roxanne’s eyes sh

    “If there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up now.” Lucian waited for a moment before preparing to end the call when the two boys did not speak.“Mr. Farwell, wait a minute!” The boys hurried to stop Lucian after hearing his words.Lucian paused, complying with their request.Cautiously, Benny glanced over at his mother while holding onto Archie’s watch. He said, “Mr. Farwell, are you busy at work? If so, you can send Essie to us. We’ll take good care of Essie together with Mommy.”After uttering the words, Benny waited with bated breath for Lucian’s reply.After all, Lucian had rejected their request to go visit Estella just moments ago. Hence, it would not be a surprise if this request was rejected as well.In fact, he’s quite likely to reject it. Still, it was worth a try. Maybe Daddy will even agree to it!Roxanne had not expected the boys to come out with their request so suddenly, leaving her feeling anxious.A few moments later, Lucian’s voice sounded from the phone. “There’s no ne

  • The abandoned Wife    A Daughter's Wish

    After giving it some thought, Archie looked toward the room on the second floor with a frown. As usual, the elder child had more to consider before deciding.Mommy is upset and worried about Essie. We shouldn’t go out without her knowledge. She’ll fly into a panic!As for Benny, he continued to persuade his brother, “Essie may still feel uncomfortable when she wakes up. I’m sure she’ll feel better if she sees us. On top of that, we can also let her know Mommy is worried about her!”Having heard that, Archie was slightly swayed. After some time, he finally came to a decision.Soon, the boys furtively opened the mansion door and ran straight to the roadside. After hailing a cab, they headed to the Farwell residence.Naturally, the cab driver was shocked to see two children getting into his car. After hesitating for a moment, he voiced, “Hello, kids. Where are your parents?”“We’re going to our daddy’s house! Mommy has given us some cash for the fare,” Archie replied in an adorable voic

  • The abandoned Wife    Surprising Playmates

    Estella lowered her gaze discreetly and burrowed into Lucian’s embrace. Ms. Jarvis smells so much better than Daddy! Lucian scoffed at the irony of the situation. Essie only likes Roxanne so much because of the bond between a mother and a child.Little did he know, Roxanne was feeling the same about Estella.He thought that Roxanne had chosen her job over Estella.“Daddy, don’t feel remorseful, okay?” Estella remembered the phone call that made her cry. In a sheepish and cute tone, she added, “I only want Ms. Jarvis to be my mommy.”Upon hearing those words, Lucian was reminded of the phone call, and he went silent for a few seconds after Estella repeated the question.Annoyed, Lucian wanted to refute Estella’s words. However, he quickly recalled James’ advice. In the end, Lucian took a few seconds to calm himself down.Once he had suppressed his anger, Lucian replied vaguely, “I won’t marry someone you don’t like. Besides, I’m not planning on getting married anytime soon.”“I only l

    Lucian watched the kids go up the stairs as a myriad of emotions rushed through him. Just now, Archie and Benny said Roxanne told them to come. She kept calling me throughout the day, but I haven’t picked up any of her calls. I thought she would’ve given up since she knew I was angry. Who would’ve known that she would use the boys against me? At first, she told the boys to call me. After that, she even told them to come and see Essie. Undeniably, she’s gotten smart. However, why didn’t she just come when she has already done so much? She knows that I wouldn’t refuse her if she were to come with Archie and Benny. Could it be that she’s also angry at me? But why should she be? Catalina sensed Lucian’s anger and uttered carefully, “Mr. Farwell, I’ll send some snacks up for Ms. Estella and the boys.”Upon hearing that, Lucian regained his senses. In order to push those thoughts aside, he rubbed his temples forcefully.He then rose to his feet from the couch and uttered in a hoarse voice,

    “Were they wearing their watches when they left?” Madilyn, who was calmer than Roxanne, asked with a frown. At once, a light bulb went off in Roxanne’s mind. At the same time, regret and frustration inundated her.Too many things had happened today that everything else fled my mind when I realized that Archie and Benny had gone missing, leaving panic all that remained. Luckily, I went over to look for Madilyn!Following Madilyn’s reminder, she called Archie and Benny without delay.Alas, Archie didn’t answer even after a long while had pa*sed.She then called Benny, but still, no one picked up.As Roxanne and Madilyn listened to the ringing tone drifting out of the phone, their hearts sank to the bottom.There were too many reasons that Archie and Benny weren’t answering the calls.The worst possibility flashed across their minds…Roxanne dug her nails into her palms to force herself to remain calm. Unlocking her phone, she checked the GPS location of Archie and Benny’s watches.Only

    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.

    “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

    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 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?

    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.
