“Do you still think you’ve done nothing wrong?” Jonathan could figure out what she was thinking with just one glance. With a cold look, he put down the documents in his hands and gravely looked at the young woman in front of him.Frieda frowned. “I didn’t do anything wrong. The one targeting Roxanne was Mrs. Farwell, not me. I was just working on her instructions.”“Mrs. Farwell told you herself not to supply any herbs to Dr. Jarvis’ research institute?” Jonathan sternly questioned, causing Frieda to jump in fright.She tensed for a second, but she was quick to relax again. Then, she steeled herself and replied, “Even if Mrs. Farwell didn’t tell me that, I know what she wants. Furthermore, we’re in a good relationship with Farwell Group. Shouldn’t we help Mrs. Farwell?”Before Jonathan could speak, Frieda continued, “Jonathan, remember that Roxanne left without a word; she only left behind divorce papers. Mrs. Farwell hasn’t settled the score with her yet. Aren’t we, the people who k
The abandoned Wife Veiled Struggles
The atmosphere in the room turned tense. Jonathan discreetly shuddered and pondered if he should continue.“Why are you asking about that?” Lucian glanced at him.Jonathan cleared his throat before replying with as much nonchalance as he could muster, “When she came to give Grandpa a checkup yesterday, I suddenly recalled that you were on good terms with her, so I wanted to ask you about it. If you rarely talk to her, then…”Then I’m not going to bother myself with the matter anymore.Before Jonathan could finish his sentence, the other man’s eyes darkened.Jonathan was certain that Lucian would decipher what was going on soon. Hence, he halted and gave Lucian a confused look. “What’s the matter, Lucian?”“Do you want to court her?” Lucian’s brows were tightly knitted, and Jonathan could see the traces of annoyance in them.His question rendered Jonathan dumbfounded and speechless.What have I said to make him think this way?Indeed, Roxanne was a nice woman, but Jonathan knew well a
The abandoned Wife The Unseen Threads
Cayden took quite some time before he could reel in from the shock. The first thing he did after that was to report to Lucian. Meanwhile, Lucian did not speak after ending the call with Cayden. Jonathan was no fool, so he quietly ate the food that had turned cold.When Lucian’s phone lit up again, Jonathan whipped his head toward it.Lucian answered the call swiftly.“Mr. Farwell, I have the findings,” Cayden started cautiously.“Who did this?” Lucian asked in a deep voice.Cayden hesitantly replied, “It’s… Mrs. Farwell.”Lucian lowered his gaze when he heard that, but no surprise crossed his face.Ever since Jonathan told him about the matter, he could somewhat guess who was behind it. Instructing Cayden to look into it was just to make sure his speculation was right.“Understood.” Lucian then expressionlessly ended the call.The temperature in the room had almost dropped below zero by then.Jonathan opened his mouth to say something, but Lucian’s voice came first.“When did you fin
The abandoned Wife Collaborative Ressolve
However, Jonathan had been harboring a thought ever since he learned that Roxanne was Lucian’s ex-wife who had left without a word, and he could not help but ask it at that moment. “What relationship does Dr. Jarvis have with Essie? I’ve never seen Essie so reliant on anyone.”Even though Jonathan did not say it out loud, Lucian could guess what Jonathan was trying to ask. Hence, he mildly replied, “Essie’s her daughter.”Jonathan had long guessed that, but hearing it from Lucian was another matter. It took Jonathan a while to come back to his senses after hearing Lucian’s response.The time Roxanne left and Estella’s age, along with how close Estella was with Roxanne, made Jonathan suspect that Estella was Roxanne’s daughter.However, it seemed Roxanne treated Estella like any ordinary child whenever they interacted, so Jonathan dared not jump to any conclusions about that.Thus, he was perplexed to hear Lucian’s confession.So Dr. Jarvis doesn’t know about this? She gave birth to t
The abandoned Wife Benevolent Connections
Jonathan could see that Roxanne was worried, and he could decipher what she was worried about, so he rephrased his words. “Queen Group won’t have a falling out with Farwell Group because of something trivial as this, and I won’t risk Queen Group either. Naturally, I’ve made all the preparations before coming here to talk about this with you.” The hesitance on Roxanne’s face slowly faded away as she stared at his confident expression. However, she still could not stop herself from asking, “But why are you helping me out? Is it just because I cured Old Mr. Queen’s illness?”When Jonathan thought about his conversation with Lucian the night before, the thoughts he had whilst he looked into Roxanne’s eyes changed.However, Roxanne only felt strange as she stared back at him.Half a beat later, Jonathan slowly stated, “My grandpa had been bedbound for years, and it’s all thanks to you, Dr. Jarvis, that he can recover to this point. Moreover, you’ve said before that my grandpa was already
The abandoned Wife Eroded Trust
Ignoring their responses, Roxanne proceeded to sit down in front of Jonathan.When Jonathan saw that Lucian was still standing there, he stated quickly, “Lucian, since Dr. Jarvis doesn’t mind, join us. Recently, Dr. Jarvis’ research institute has encountered some problems. You may be able to help her!”Lucian merely frowned before sitting down.Since Roxanne did not run away upon seeing him, he decided to stay on as well.However, Roxanne acted as if Lucian was not there after inviting him to join them. When the dishes were served, she raised her gla*s and remarked, “Thank you for helping me out with the herb suppliers, Mr. Queen.”Jonathan did not make a big deal out of it. Clinking gla*ses with her, he responded, “You’re most welcome, Dr. Jarvis. I’m not the only one who has helped you with regard to this issue.”Upon hearing that, Roxanne frowned, as she did not understand what he meant.Jonathan was about to say more when someone glared at him.Sensing Lucian’s stare, Jonathan act
The abandoned Wife Unspoken Tensions and Chaos
At the mention of Estella’s condition, Roxanne’s heart clenched. Yet, she couldn’t show it in front of Lucian.Just when she was determined to feign indifference, Jonathan abruptly turned the subject to her. “I remember Essie liked you a lot back when you came to treat my grandfather, Dr. Jarvis. I wonder if her condition will improve if she spends more time with you.”After saying that, he nonchalantly added, “It was the first time I have ever seen her showing such favor for someone else that I was shocked then.”Roxanne’s hand tightened around the fork in her hand. She didn’t know how to tell him that she was the reason for Estella’s aggravated condition.At the side, Lucian agreed with Jonathan and stared at her with a grim look in his eyes.In the past, she’d relent as long as I brought up Essie before her. But this time, it’s painfully clear that she has already hardened her heart to it all.Silence reigned at the dining table, and Roxanne could distinctly sense the two men’s gaz
The abandoned Wife Unforeseen Ride
“Mr. Farwell?”When Cayden saw his employer walking over with Roxanne, he subconsciously presumed that the latter would be getting into their car. Unexpectedly, he saw her getting into the car with Jonathan while Lucian stood outside.After a moment, he decided to call out to the man cautiously.His brows furrowing slightly, Lucian bent down and climbed into the car.Cayden slowly started the car and drove out of the parking lot.Meanwhile, in the adjacent car, Jonathan asked Roxanne for her address and ordered the driver to drop her home first.In response, the driver murmured an acknowledgment.He moved to start the car, but it simply wouldn’t start.It still didn’t work after multiple tries. “The car seems to have broken down, Mr. Queen,” the driver reported helplessly.Upon hearing that, Jonathan imperceptibly swept his gaze over Roxanne beside him. He wore a grim expression. “It was just fine when we came over. Why did it suddenly break down?”A conflicted expression manifested o
