The abandoned Wife Lucian's Arrival
As soon as she said that, and before the people could react, Jessica lunged toward Roxanne. Jack had pushed her closer to Roxanne just now, so there was no one between the two. By the time Larry turned around upon hearing the commotion, Jessica was already a hair’s breadth away from Roxanne. “Roxanne, watch out!” Larry cried out, barely managing to pull Roxanne behind him. At the same time, Jack walked over and gripped Jessica’s arm. “Are you done?” Jessica ended up lunging toward an empty spot and was even berated by Jack. Her anger reached its peak, and she burst into tears. As she bawled, she pointed at Roxanne and continued cursing. There were people walking out of the hotel, and when they noticed the commotion, they stopped in their tracks to watch the drama. Roxanne stood behind Larry, her heart still racing. She noticed that there were more and more people gathering around them, and she knew that she had to step forward and end the scene. If things were to continu
The abandoned Wife Entangled Perceptions
The man’s domineering presence silenced the crowd. Someone in the crowd finally came back to their senses when Lucian walked past them and whispered, “It’s Mr. Farwell!” Upon hearing those words, the crowd erupted into an uproar. They did not even care about their reputation anymore as they stared at Lucian’s back. Although they were all from prestigious families in Horington, they were ants in comparison to Lucian. Moreover, they could barely have the chance to see Lucian in person. Therefore, now that they had the chance to do that, they couldn’t help staring at him to their hearts’ content. Lucian’s face was an eye candy for all. Roxanne could only stay rooted to her spot in the middle of the crowd as she watched the man amble toward her. The look on her face had frozen, and she did not know what kind of reaction she should have at that moment. It seems that I have had ill luck recently. Not only is a drunkard seeking trouble with me at work, but Lucian’s here at such horrendo
The abandoned Wife Bound by Shadows
Everyone heard Jessica clearly. Of course, they did not know much about the medical field. Hence, they merely nodded at Jessica’s remarks.After all, they had the perception that accomplished doctors would typically be in their fifties. People would not normally a*sociate a young and beautiful woman like Roxanne with being an accomplished doctor in the medical field.Jessica’s hand edged closer and closer to Roxanne’s face. The latter’s face turned cold. She was ready to swat off Jessica’s hand at any moment right then.However, before Roxanne could do so, a large hand struck first and immobilized Jessica’s hand.The man clutching her hand had evidently exerted a considerable amount of force, so much so that Jessica lost her balance and staggered a few steps back and missed Roxanne’s face.“You could consult Dr. Lambert if you have any doubts about her medical skills, or you could also ask Old Mr. Queen. I believe he will have an answer for you.” Lucian threw a scornful look at the t
The abandoned Wife Strategic Compromises
Roxanne could feel the air growing still right then. Needless to say, it was because of Lucian.Roxanne clenched her fist and told herself repeatedly not to turn around and watch. She wanted to pretend that Lucian was not there at all.His question had made her squirm uneasily. At the thought of his out-of-place confession, Roxanne was worried that he might make more unreasonable demands.Meanwhile, Jack frowned when he saw that the driver was running late.“Let me make a call,” Jack said as he took out his phone.The next moment, Lucian’s voice rang out. “Since Mr. Damaris’ driver is going to take some time, I could send you home if you don’t mind, Ms. Jarvis.”Roxanne tensed up once again and turned around immediately to reject his offer. “That won’t be necessary. I’ve already made the arrangement with Mr. Damaris. Feel free to leave first if you’re in a rush, Mr. Farwell!”Then Roxanne scurried to Jack’s side.She did not wish to be alone with Lucian, afraid that he might say anyt
The abandoned Wife Tangled Emotions
Jack’s gaze gradually darkened as he stared at their leaving figures from behind. Their current relationship is genuinely baffling me. I can see that Lucian inclines to win Roxanne back, but I cannot figure out her stance. Complicated emotions surged within Jack when he was reminded of Roxanne’s appearance as she stood under the lights earlier. She’s clueless about my feelings.Along the way, Lucian wrapped his hand around Roxanne’s wrist tightly.He exerted a great force on her wrist and caused her to be in pain.“Let go of me!”She tried to break free of his grip, but her futile attempt merely prompted him to grab her more closely and firmly.Lucian decided never to let go of her hand anymore because when he had done so earlier, Roxanne almost approached another man.She had no choice but to give up after a few times of struggling in vain and having her complaints disregarded by Lucian the whole time.As a result, she allowed him to drag her along to the roadside.The driver had al
The abandoned Wife Echoes Of Tension
Roxanne soon recognized the inappropriateness of her words after she was done talking. She was under the a*sumption that Lucian would retort what she said coldly but didn’t hear his voice even after some time.Amidst the silence, the atmosphere inside the car grew more unfavorable.Just as Roxanne was about to speak further, Lucian’s slightly resigned voice sounded. “If that’s the case, please treat me the same way you treat your other suitors, and don’t be prejudiced against anyone.”He contemplated for a long while and had no choice but to concede.When Roxanne heard that, her heart instantly clenched. She even doubted if her ears were playing tricks on her. How could someone as proud and arrogant as Lucian say something like that?“If Mr. Morrison is the other suitor you’re talking about, Ms. Jarvis, please treat me the same way you treat him. After all, we’ve known one another for almost as long as you are acquainted with Mr. Morrison.”Lucian pinched between his brows with inexp
The abandoned Wife Waking to Laughter
After taking several seconds to recollect herself, Roxanne finally replied: I had already promised her I would go to the concert. What’s the meaning of this, Mr. Farwell? Lucian’s reply came almost instantly. It read: I just figured you’d be busy handling the collaboration with the Damaris family for these couple of days. I won’t force you to attend the concert if you don’t have the time.A conjecture formed in her mind when she read the last sentence.It must be because of what I said in the car about not forcing himself that made him bring this up suddenly. From his point of view, I was forced to agree to attend the concert because Essie kept inviting me over and over again. Is he trying to make up for past mistakes, then?The thought of Lucian making changes because of what she said earlier gave her a strange feeling. In fact, she almost believed what he said about wanting to pursue her.Realizing what she was thinking, Roxanne immediately snapped out of her daze and recollected h
The abandoned Wife Conflicted Consideration
Roxanne chuckled when she heard Madilyn grumbling. Pulling the children into her embrace, Madilyn said with a sigh, “It’s been such a busy month, but I’m already feeling much better after seeing these two kiddos.”With that, she forcefully planted kisses on the boys’ cheeks, only to be shoved away by them in disdain.“Let’s go out and play tomorrow! We haven’t spent much time together ever since you guys returned. It’s my day off tomorrow. I can take all of you out for the entire day,” Madilyn suggested, looking expectant.The boys’ eyes lit up at the idea of going out to play. They instantly turned to Roxanne to hear her response.Roxanne felt conflicted when she was met by the trio’s expectant gazes. “I’m afraid tomorrow is a no-no.”The moment those words left her mouth, the trio’s faces fell simultaneously.Madilyn stared at Roxanne with an exaggerated expression. “Don’t tell me you’re working tomorrow.”Roxanne shook her head. “No,” was all she replied, leaving Madilyn even more
