The abandoned Wife Bussiness Commitments
It’s all Daddy’s fault! Ms. Jarvis really likes me, and she’s avoiding me because she doesn’t like Daddy! Ms. Jarvis didn’t even want me to take care of her now that she is hurt. I wonder how is she…Upon thinking of that, Estella pursed her lips as her eyes reddened.Lucian did not know how to deal with Estella, and he was afraid of saying something wrong. He did not want her condition to worsen.Estella had finally started communicating normally with them instead of writing on a piece of paper. He really did not want things to regress to how they were in the beginning.After remaining silent for a long while, Lucian sighed heavily. “Are you blaming me?”Estella answered with her silence.Seeing that, a sense of helplessness rose in Lucian’s heart.Estella was definitely Roxanne’s daughter. Even if they were not aware of their relationship, Estella had the same temper as Roxanne.It was all right for Roxanne to be distant from him, but it was different when his daughter, whom he had

After lunch, Roxanne freshened up and requested Lysa to accompany her to the meeting. When they arrived, they noticed Jack was already waiting for them by a table next to a window.When he saw Roxanne had to walk with the support of another person, he went up to her. “Are you injured? Why didn’t you tell me in the morning?”Roxanne responded with a faint smile. “It’s just a minor injury. I can still walk.”Jack frowned after taking a glance at the leg that was hanging mid-air. He then helped her to her seat.Lysa sat outside and waited by the door.After taking her seat, Roxanne noticed the stack of documents in front of her. Her tone instantly got serious. “I believe we have a lot of things to go through today, so let’s not waste time anymore and dive right in.”Jack nodded in agreement. He was a big fan of a career woman like Roxanne.“We have long finalized the details of the collaboration between the two research institutes. We had to delay the process because of the Damaris fami

His stare shifted to the direction Jack left and continued in a mocking tone, “Or is it because Mr. Damaris is special? So much so that you want to meet him despite your injury?”Roxanne could sense the hostility in his voice and felt even odder. “Mr. Damaris and I are merely business partners. We met today because we wanted to discuss our collaboration. Please do not make wild guesses, Mr. Farwell!”Lucian’s lips twitched. “It’d better be.”Seeing the mockery on his face caused her to feel a slight pain in her heart. Her expression darkened as she said, “Thank you for your thoughtfulness, Mr. Farwell. However, I have all sorts of medicine here. So, if there’s nothing else, please leave.”Roxanne turned around and staggered back into the mansion without giving Lucian another chance to speak.He grabbed her arm after she took two steps away from him.His cold voice rang next to her ear. “I’ll send you back in.”“No need. It’s only a few steps. I can handle it just fine,” she rejected w

On the other side, Aubree was finally able to leave the hospital after staying there for nearly a month. Lucian only kept her company in the hospital for a few days under his mother’s request. After that, he never showed up again.She contacted him a few times, asking him to visit her. However, he would always use his work as an excuse to reject her.Additionally, two days ago, some of her friends, who had children studying in the same kindergarten, visited her. They told her that Lucian and Roxanne were acting in the Sleeping Beauty play. Not only that, they showed her photos of the play.Inside the photos, Lucian was seen wearing a princely outfit as he stared longingly at Roxanne, who was lying on a wooden bed.Aubree’s friends continued to swipe the screen, showing her photos upon photos of Roxanne and Lucian.Eventually, he was seen sitting by the side of the bed, leaning his body toward Roxanne in order to kiss her.When Aubree saw the kiss, she shoved the phone away, unwilling

He pulled out his phone to check who it was with furrowed eyebrows. The moment he saw the name on the screen, he subconsciously looked at the woman in front of him and met her eyes.Roxanne’s eyebrows tightened a little as she swept her gaze past the phone’s screen and saw the name.It was as though the word “Aubree” was reminding her that she was getting too close to Lucian.When she realized that, she pinched her palm, pretended to be calm, and pulled herself backward. She wanted to put as much distance as possible between herself and him. Her eyes lowered as she pretended that she didn’t exist.In the next second, the vibrating sound stopped.Her eyebrows remained furrowed as she subconsciously glanced at the phone.It was then she saw Lucian had hung up the call and stuffed it back into his pocket.He stared into Roxanne’s eyes, which caused her to be stunned for a second.“I’ve applied medicine to your wound and help bandaged your injury. Don’t you think I deserve some thanks for

It was hard to tell how long Roxanne and Lucian stayed in the living room before her phone rang. It was from Lysa.Roxanne answered the call.“Have you returned, Ms. Jarvis? If not, we can go and pick you up.” Lysa’s voice entered her ears the moment the call connected.Roxanne replied plainly, “I’m already back home. You should bring the children straight back here.”It was then Lysa sounded rather troubled. “Also, Mr. Farwell’s a*sistant is saying that he wants to go home with us…”When she went to pick up Archie and Benny, Estella was still there.The boys insisted they would only leave after she left, so Lysa had no choice but to wait with them.At the end, when Cayden arrived, he said he wanted to come home with Lysa.She couldn’t make the decision, so she called Roxanne.Roxanne glanced at Lucian subconsciously when she heard that.He was acting as though he didn’t hear anything. His eyes remained fixed on his phone without any expression.Seeing that, she hesitated for a few s

She appeared troubled because she had just seen Aubree calling Lucian. If I let Lucian and Essie stay here for a meal, it’ll look like I’m doing it on purpose, especially after what he said…Her intention was to reject her boys’ request, but Estella grabbed her sleeve.It caused her heart to waver as her gaze shifted to the girl.Estella stared at her pitifully. The red in her eyes hadn’t completely subsided yet, which made her look aggrieved.As Roxanne stared into the girl’s eyes, she hesitated, and in the end, she couldn’t reject her.Seeing how she wasn’t getting an answer, Estella turned to her father with red cheeks for help. “Daddy…”Lucian glanced at Roxanne and lowered his eyes to look at his daughter. “Ms. Jarvis has already agreed. You should thank her.”Doubt was still present in Estella’s heart, so she wanted to hear the confirmation right out of Roxanne’s mouth.However, Roxanne couldn’t bring herself to say it. She simply patted the child’s head in silent agreement. The

However, it was obvious Roxanne didn’t want them to worry. Thus, the children didn’t ask any further questions and silently put some food on her plate.She thanked them with a smile.“Ms. Jarvis.” Estella suddenly spoke.Roxanne turned to the girl, confused.“Can you rest properly and get better soon?” The look in the girl’s stare was serious.When she heard Roxanne’s wound open because of all the walking, she wanted Roxanne to rest and get better soon.Upon hearing that, Roxanne was stunned for a few seconds. Then she nodded at the child, unsure if she should laugh or cry. “I know. Don’t worry, Essie. I’ll listen to your advice.”Estella nodded seriously like a small adult.Following that, the boys’ attention shifted to Lucian as they spoke. “Thank you for applying Mommy’s medicine for her, Mr. Farewell.”They proceeded to put food on Lucian’s plate.He didn’t expect they would thank him. With his eyebrow raised, he smiled at them indifferently. “You two need to take good care of you

Jack froze for a few seconds before coming to some kind of realization and agreeing to it. The two of them then went out of the research institute.A look of delight danced across Colby’s face when he saw them leave.Ever since Jack came for Roxanne, Colby had been keeping his focus on the two.Therefore, he saw the look of struggle on Roxanne’s face.Evidently, what he had said in the morning was effective.Meanwhile, Roxanne came to a stop in her tracks at the entrance of the institute with mixed feelings still surging in her heart. In the meantime, Jack stopped behind her.“Sorry.” Roxanne had calmed herself down on their way out and realized that she had been a little too carried away earlier.Jack raised a brow and teased, “What’s the matter? Why are you apologizing to me all of a sudden? You couldn’t have secretly done something terrible to the project, could you, Ms. Jarvis?”Roxanne shook her head immediately. “Of course not.”I’ve done so much for this project. Why would I d
The abandoned Wife Entangled Fates: Navigating Relationships and Misunderstandings
Estella looked at her father, who was already at the door and turned to look at Aubree, who was still standing by the couch. A few moments pa*sed, and the little girl finally begrudgingly got out of her chair and jogged to keep up with Lucian.Aubree let out a relieved sigh and caught up to them as well.“Daddy,” Estella mumbled. She gave her father a puppy-eyed look and tugged at the corner of his shirt in a bid to curry favor with her father.Lucian lowered his gaze to meet Estella’s. He lifted his hand and patted her head. “I’m really busy lately. Please don’t throw a tantrum at me.”Estella pursed her lips in disapproval, refusing to believe what he said.She knew as a matter of fact that Lucian was in a bad mood because he had quarreled with Roxanne.Estella was flabbergasted that Lucian was still trying to lie to her, despite the fact that even she knew the real reason her father was upset.Why are adults so weird? Why doesn’t Daddy just make up with Ms. Jarvis?Of course, Luci

Cory was in a good mood, knowing he had once again made a fortune. He then said, “Of course. Ms. Pearson, I’m sure you’ve come to me again because you believe in my capabilities. Now, tell me. What is it that you want me to investigate?” Narrowing her eyes, Aubree said, “Investigate what happened between Roxanne and Lucian!”Cory let out a meaningful chuckle when he heard what she said.Aubree questioned coldly, “Why are you laughing?”As if unaware of her anger, Cory muttered, “Since you’ve agreed to the price I proposed so readily, I have to show you something.”With that, he took out a phone from the bag beside him and typed away on the screen.Soon, Aubree received a few messages on her phone.“I believe what you’re about to see won’t disappoint you, Ms. Pearson.” Cory sounded confident.Aubree furrowed her brows and swiped open her phone, checking the messages he sent.The chat interface showed that Cory had sent her more than ten pictures.Each picture was attached with the tim

Aubree followed Estella closely into the room. Hesitantly, she muttered, “Lucian…” She felt somewhat guilty when she noticed the young girl fuming at Lucian.At the same time, she was relieved that Estella had not said a word to her father.Lucian nodded at Aubree and said, “Sorry for troubling you to look after Essie.”Aubree was delighted by his words. She sputtered, “Not at all. I’m happy to do this. Essie’s a lovely girl.”As for how she upset Estella in the car earlier, Aubree decided to sweep things under the rug if the young girl kept things to herself.“Dinner’s ready. Why don’t you eat with us?” Lucian offered.Aubree was over the moon. “Sure.”They entered the dining room one after another.Catalina had already set the table for three.Aubree said, “I’ll go get Essie.”Despite her suggestion, she was not confident about coaxing Estella downstairs.After all, the young girl was put out because of Aubree, and she might not listen to her instructions.If she throws a tantrum i

Archie and Benny stayed in the bathroom for a little while longer before heading out. Roxanne was still chatting with Jack at the time.She had wanted to get him to leave as soon as possible, but Jack started talking about the ancient medicine books halfway through the conversation.Due to Roxanne’s incredible pa*sion for medicine, she couldn’t help but get carried away talking about it again.It wasn’t until Lysa told them dinner was ready that she snapped out of it.“Would you like to stay for dinner, Mr. Damaris?” Roxanne asked out of courtesy.Jack arched an eyebrow when he saw Archie and Benny standing next to the kitchen.They were both glaring daggers at him and looked like they would tear him to pieces if he accepted her invitation.Because they were still kids, they just looked adorable no matter how fierce their expressions were.Jack couldn’t help but smile in amusement as he drawled suspensefully, “Thank you for the invitation, Ms. Jarvis. I—”He was halfway through his s
The abandoned Wife Unspoken Tensions: Navigating Family Dynamics
In the kindergarten, Archie and Benny sat in their seats quietly while the other children were playing games with Pippa. They could sense something was off when Roxanne said she would send them to school that morning.It wasn’t until Roxanne handed them over to Pippa that they noticed Roxanne glancing at the crowd from time to time as if she was looking for someone.When Pippa led them into the school, they looked back and saw Roxanne still looking around.Although Archie and Benny said nothing, they knew Roxanne was looking for Lucian and Estella.Mommy must feel terrible after the fight with Daddy that day.At the thought of Roxanne’s sadness and disappointment, Archie and Benny’s moods were gloomy, too.“Archie, Benny, what’s wrong?”Seeing the listless look on the boys’ faces, Pippa walked over to comfort them, “Are you missing Estella?”At the mention of Estella, Archie and Benny’s faces immediately fell. I wonder how Essie is doing…“Don’t worry. Mr. Farwell will take good care

Frowning, Lucian fell silent for several seconds. Within several short seconds, the smile slid off Aubree’s face.Until Lucian’s voice sounded once more.“Judging by Essie’s demeanor this morning, the relationship between you seemed to have improved by a lot.”Aubree froze for several seconds at his words before she registered what he said.It was true that the child had been receptive toward her that morning.Aside from rejecting her touch, Estella had responded to almost everything she had said.It was a big improvement compared to before.“I was the one at fault back then,” Aubree replied with a laugh. “I wasn’t patient enough with Essie. Now that I’m a little more patient, Essie can sense it and responds accordingly.”“That’s good,” Lucian answered solemnly. “Enjoy each other’s company.”Smiling, Aubree a*sured him she would.Without discussing it any further, Lucian ended the call on the pretext of work.Though he had already decided to proceed with the engagement, he did not ha

Estella’s resolve wavered at the mention of Lucian. She had seen how drunk Lucian was the night before and surmised he must have drunk a lot.I wonder what Daddy was up to.Aubree delighted at the indecision in Estella’s eyes and continued, “If you don’t want to attend school, I can help put in a word or two when your daddy’s feeling better.”It was only then that Estella relented and allowed her entry into the room.Aubree got to her feet to let Estella get dressed while she picked out the clothes she would wear to school.Once the clothes were selected, she a*sisted Estella to brush her teeth.Estella gradually began to let her guard down.Aubree used to threaten her whenever they spent time together.Estella supposed Aubree wouldn’t try anything since she didn’t seem inclined to do so this time.Moreover, Aubree brought up Lucian in their conversation.Estella was docile and compliant to her demands as she did not want to trouble Lucian. Nonetheless, her expression was still sulle
The abandoned Wife Aubree's Dilemma: Navigating Relationships and Responsibilities
Aubree spent the night in the same guest room she stayed in during her previous visit. As she entered the room, she could not help but recall what she had done last time.For a moment, I even thought of using the same method to teach that little b*tch another lesson to see if she dares to be disobedient again!However, it was only a fleeting thought because, ultimately, she was still afraid Lucian would find out about it.Now that she had hope, she would never be able to forgive herself if she lost it due to another mistake she made.As Aubree lay in bed, the scene from earlier in Lucian’s bedroom kept playing through her head.I was so close to becoming Mrs. Farwell! If only Cayden hadn’t appeared!Aubree stayed up all night, waiting for Cayden to come over and inform her that Lucian had woken up.She never expected to wait until the sun was high in the sky, and he still had not come over.The memory of Cayden’s attitude toward her the night before made Aubree grit her teeth.
