The abandoned Wife Entangled Fates: Unraveling Emotions and Interference
The sudden ringing of the phone broke the tense atmosphere at the dining table.As Lucian’s mind was preoccupied with Roxanne’s relationship with Larry, he picked up the call without looking at the phone.The moment the call went through, he heard a female’s concerned voice.“Lucian, I heard you went to Bellridge for a business trip. How are things? Have you settled them?”Aubree had gone to the office yesterday to look for Lucian and ended up making a wasted trip. She found out that Lucian had gone to Bellridge only after she asked Sonya. As such, she had called him early in the morning to show concern toward him.She had thought that he would not pick up like all the previous times she called. Yet, little did she expect him to pick up the phone so quickly.Aubree thought that Lucian had finally let go of his prejudices against her, and her voice was filled with delight.Lucian frowned upon hearing her voice and subconsciously looked at Roxanne.As they were quiet, Roxanne and Larry

Aubree arrived in Bellridge at noon. On her way there, she called Sonya to find out where Lucian was staying. After getting off the plane, she headed straight. to the hotel..When she arrived and saw the hotel entrance, suspicion filled her mind, and she frowned.Given Lucian’s status, he should be staying at a five-star hotel at the very least whenever he was on business trips. Even though the hotel before her was considered respectable, it did not fit his status.Unless… his reason for coming here was to find that b*tch.Aubree’s heart sank as she thought about this. She quickly walked to the front desk and asked, “Hi, I’m looking for someone. Can I trouble you to help me find out which room Lucian Farwell is staying in?”The receptionist looked at her and was about to ask about her relationship with him when she immediately added, “I’m his fiancée. I called him just now, and he told me his room number.But I don’t have a good memory and forgot what he said. I don’t want to call him

Lucian’s room number was only a digit different from Roxanne’s room number.Aubree tried hard to convince herself that it was only coincidental that the two were staying on the floor.However, she couldn’t accept that they were staying next door to each other now that she saw it with her own eyes.Now, Aubree could no longer persuade herself that this was a coincidence.Back in her room, Roxanne’s expression looked grim as she spaced out on the bed.Roxanne never imagined she would encounter Lucian here. Moreover, she never expected Aubree to come after him.It was beyond Roxanne’s imagination how things would turn out if the three met.A faint scowl appeared on Roxanne’s face. Wasting no time, she stood up and started to pack her luggage.She decided that she would avoid any trouble which she couldn’t bear the consequences.After all, she had nothing left to do in Bellridge. Thus, it didn’t matter when she left.Halfway through packing, she heard a knock on the door.Roxanne stood up

Roxanne must have left in a rush because of Aubree’s unannounced arrival.“This is my room. Of course I’m here. As for you, what are you doing here?” Lucian’s expression turned icy.Aubree looked away with guilt. “Oh, it’s nothing. I have some work to do here in Bellridge, and Mrs. Farwell told me you’re here for a business trip. So I’m here to see you.”“Does Pearson Group have a project here in Bellridge? Why didn’t I know that?” Lucian showed no mercy and exposed her.In recent years, Farwell Group had been acting as the middleman for many projects for Pearson Group. Hence, it was natural for Lucian to know of their businesses.Aubree’s expression changed, and she clenched her fists. She steeled herself and said, “We only started negotiating recently. It’s not a done deal yet. I came here to give it a try.”Aubree was afraid Lucian would continue digging into it, so she immediately changed the topic. “Oh, right, why are you staying in this kind of hotel? Did your partner book this

Why did you leave in a hurry? I didn’t hear you mentioning going back to Horington when we had breakfast.” Lucian’s voice rang from the side, histone unfathomable.Scowling, Roxanne turned over and answered him coldly with another question, “Mr.Farwell, I’m also curious why would you leave your fiancée behind in Bell ridge and go back to Horington by yourself?”— At the mention of his fiancée, Lucian’s gaze darkened.She pretended that she hadn’t noticed the change in his expression as she continued, “Mr.Farwell, you’re going to get married soon.You should spend more time with your fiancée at this critical juncture.”When Lucian was about to reply to her, the woman next to him took out a small blanketand covered herself with it up to her face.She then turned her back to him and lay down.Through the blanket, her muffled voice sounded.“I’m tired.I need to rest.Mr.Farwell, please be quiet.” With that, she closed her eyes, and Lucian could only see the back of her head.In the end,

Roxanne frowned, but she didn’t urge him to move aside.When almost of the people got off the plane, Lucian rose to his feet placidly.The two then got off the plane one after the other.Meanwhile, Larry and Cayden were already waiting for them outside.While they were on the plane just now, Larry saw Lucian sitting next to Roxanne, but the plane had takenoff, so he couldn’t do anything about it.Upon seeing Lucian, Larry merely greeted the former out of courtesy, then turned to look at Roxanne.“You don’t have a car.I’ll send you back.” Roxanne replied with a smile, “Thanks, Larry.”As she spoke, she completely ignored the man beside her and strode over to Larry’s side.Seeing the woman, who had been giving him the cold shoulder, smile at another man, Lucian was naturally displeased and extended hishand to grab her wrist.The smile on Roxanne’s face gradually faded as she turned around to face Lucian.“Mr. Farwell, what else do you want?” Lucian gazed into her eyes, but he couldn’t

“Larry, don’t simply make assumptions without evidence.” Roxanne averted her eyes apprehensively.“No matter what kind of feelings he has for me, we are just friendly strangers now.There’s nothing more than that.Besides, he is about to get engaged to Aubree.” Ever since she met Lucian again, she had several guesses about how Lucian felt about her, but she had never thought of the possibility of him liking her.Besides, she also had a feeling that it was not a romantic interest.After all, she could still how much Lucian liked Aubree six years ago.This is not the way Lucian behaves when he has feelings for the person.Upon seeing her denying the claim, Larry knitted his brows slightly and keep his silence.The car rolled to a stop at Roxanne’s doorstep.Thinking about the little ones at home, Roxanne reluctantly gathered her thoughts, beamed at Larry, and said, “Thanks for the trouble.” He nodded and saw her out of the car.He then said in a deep voice, “Please consider what I have

Estella had lived with them for a period of time.She had seen a variety of figurines in their rooms, so she knew how much they would like the gift.Yet it seemed to take them forever to receive the gift.She nudged them and urged, “You like these, don’t you?” They tried putting up a stern face to deny her statement, but looking at the figurines, they just couldn’t say it out loud.Eventually, they relented and said, “It’s too expensive.Mommy won’t let us take it.” Estella didn’t expect them to reject her.They also brought up their mother.She pouted, lowered her eyes and stood pitifully before them, looking as if she would start crying at any moment.Seeing that, they exchanged a look and said hastily, “Since it is from Essie, we will take it.Please help us thank Uncle Lucian.” Only then did Estella start to smile again.Roxanne continued her work at the research institute the second day after she returned from Bellridge.When she was away for the past two days, she asked Colby to

The abandoned Wife Surprising Fear and Thinking
Estella was confused, but she still smiled innocently, for she knew Roxanne was praising her. The former then retracted her hand obediently. Subsequently, Roxanne took out the tools she had prepared and carefully scooped out the yellow flower along with its roots.Estella cocked her head to one side, confused by what she saw.“For medicinal herbs like this, we need to preserve their roots as well,” Roxanne explained patiently.Hearing that, the girl nodded even though she did not understand Roxanne’s words completely.Now that Estella knew Roxanne was looking for that kind of flower, the former quickly got up and scoured the area.It did not take long for Estella to find a huge area of it, so Roxanne collected a few more to be preserved.Soon, noon arrived. The children were clearly hungry because their pace had slowed.Noting that, Roxanne brought them back to the tent to prepare food for them.She had woken up early that morning to prepare a various selection of food for the childr
The abandoned Wife Botanical Discoveries and Artistic Surprises
“What is…” Estella carefully placed the wreath in her hand and shot Roxanne a delighted look. Smiling, Roxanne patted Estella’s head and said, “It looks a little funny because I haven’t made one in a long time.”In response, Estella shook her head fervently. “I love it!”As if to prove how much she loved it, Estella placed it gently in front of her and began drawing it.Seeing that, Roxanne and the boys scooted over curiously, only to be shocked by Estella’s drawing, which was slowly becoming complete.Her previous drawing of the plants was rather decent, though her brushstrokes were a little childish.However, her drawing of the wreath was unbelievable. In fact, it almost looked real.“Essie, you’re amazing!” Benny breathed.Roxanne, too, smiled and nodded in agreement.By the time Estella was done with the drawing, Benny could not help but ask, “Essie, have you taken art cla*ses before?”However, Estella shook her head in confusion.The look of surprise in Benny’s eyes only intensi

The camping location Roxanne had picked was in the suburbs near a mountain. It was a two-hour drive from the city, so they only arrived when it was close to noon. When Roxanne got out of the car, she could not help but sigh in awe while scanning the surroundings. The two-hour drive was worth it.Their camping location was on a lush field with tiny flowers growing all over the place.Roxanne had purposely chosen a wider area to set up their tent. There was also a little forest not far from their spot.The vegetation in the forest was denser, and rabbits would hop out and encircle their visitors from time to time.On the other side was a tiny waterfall, and thanks to the moving water, the surrounding air was quite refreshing and cool.The gurgling sound of water also created a serene vibe. It could not be a more suitable camping site.Happiness was written all over the children’s faces.“It’s so beautiful!” Estella gazed at the scenery, forgetting all the unhappy events that happened t
The abandoned Wife Unveiling Shadow
The next day, Estella got out of bed and waited outside Lucian’s room. She still wanted to convince him to go camping with them. When Lucian opened the door and was about to leave the room, he noticed the girl was standing right before him.Needless to say, Lucian knew her motive.Instead of giving her a chance to speak, he said, “Come. Let’s go and have breakfast. Ms. Jarvis should be arriving shortly.”The girl shook her head, but before she could say something, Lucian interrupted again. “I need to go to the office now. You must obey Ms. Jarvis, okay? Call me if you need anything.”Before Estella could open her mouth and speak, he immediately walked past her and went downstairs.Meanwhile, Catalina was preparing breakfast for them in the dining area.When she saw him walking to the door, she asked in concern, “Breakfast’s ready, Mr. Farwell. Would you like to eat some before leaving?”Lucian continued walking. “I have to leave now. Remember to open the door for Ms. Jarvis later. Sh
The abandoned Wife Lucian and Estella's Bonds
On the way to the Farwell residence, Estella puffed up her cheeks as she sat in the backseat. She stared at her father through the rearview mirror. “Daddy, did you make Ms. Jarvis angry again?”Lucian frowned slightly when he heard Estella’s soft and adorable voice.Estella caught on to the change in Lucian’s expression and knew that she had guessed correctly. She snorted angrily.She had thought that Lucian wanted to bring her to meet Roxanne.However, it turned out he had gone to create trouble for Roxanne instead.“I won’t listen to you anymore, Daddy!” Estella said gloomily.Lucian’s frown deepened. He patiently explained, “It’s because of work.”It’s this excuse again!Estella looked at the rearview mirror unhappily and said, “You only know how to lie to little kids, Daddy.”Lucian’s eye twitched in anger when he heard that.Estella continued listing out her grievances. “You also said that to me the previous time! Earlier tonight, you tricked me into bringing you to Ms. Jarvis t

Lucian stared at Roxanne with a grim expression. Even if she did not say it out explicitly, he could tell that she was still being suspicious of him.Realizing that, Lucian’s expression darkened terribly, while the tone of his voice became colder.“Since you are refusing my offer, Ms. Jarvis, I won’t insist upon it anymore.”With that, he turned around and left the study.As she watched his retreating figure, Roxanne’s eyes glinted with an unfathomable emotion. Confusion filled her heart at that moment.Lucian’s words still left her wondering why he had decided to come all the way to see her in the first place.She wouldn’t believe his claim that he was merely here to provide the medicinal herbs.However, Lucian did not mention anything else besides that.Roxanne mulled over it in the study alone, but she could not find an answer to her doubts.After quite some time, she finally decided to leave the room.Meanwhile, the children had finished their dinner and were playing in the livin

Roxanne could feel Lucian’s heavy gaze on her back. Although her back was facing him, she still could not ignore the fact he was staring at her.Due to Lucian’s presence, she was no longer in the mood to eat anything.“You kids go ahead. I have something to discuss with Mr. Farwell,” said Roxanne softly after taking several quick bites and placing away her cutleries.She could not stand having Lucian staring at her all the time, and she wanted to know why he came to her place.The kids did not think too much about that and nodded obediently in response.Seeing that the kids had agreed to let her go, Roxanne stood up and walked over to Lucian. “Let’s talk in the study.”Lucian nodded casually and stood up, following her to the study.“Mr. Farwell, to what do I owe this pleasure of having you over at my place? Do you have something important to tell me?” Roxanne stood in the center of the study, looking at him warily. “If you’re here to offer me the technical advisor’s position for Her
The abandoned Wife Dinning With Lucian
That night, Lucian went to the kindergarten to pick Estella up. It was already late by the time he arrived, so Estella was the only kid left at the kindergarten.“Daddy,” Estella greeted him aggrievedly after noticing his arrival.He patted her head apologetically. “I’m sorry that I’m late.”Then, he looked up and nodded at Pippa.Pippa had waited with Estella the whole night. Now that Lucian had finally shown up, she could rest a*sured and let him take the little girl home.After bringing Estella into the car, Lucian sat idly for some time instead of starting the vehicle.Estella urged him in puzzlement, “Daddy?” Her voice pulled him back to reality.He glanced at the little girl through the rearview mirror and saw a bewildered expression spread across her face.“Have you seen Ms. Jarvis in the past few days?” he asked.Estella became crestfallen upon listening to his question and shook her head dejectedly.However, she quickly turned delighted. “Archie and Benny said I’ll be able t
The abandoned Wife Heartfelt Advice and Unspoken Resolves
Jonathan cleared his throat at Lucian’s lack of response.“I heard a fire broke out in Dr. Jarvis’ research institute two days ago.”Hearing that, Lucian snapped his brows together.Jonathan was satisfied to see his response. “What’s the matter? Did you not know about this?”Lucian nodded, his expression somber.He had not seen Roxanne since the kiss the other night.Therefore, he knew nothing of what happened to her.Although Estella would try to get news about Roxanne from Archie and Benny before telling her father what she learned, Lucian knew that Roxanne would not let the boys know that she had been in danger.Jonathan fell silent when he saw his friend’s grim expression, and he waited for Lucian to speak instead.“Was the fire a bad one? Was she hurt?” Lucian could not help but ask.Jonathan lifted a brow. “Won’t you know if you go and take a look at her?”At that, Lucian’s expression turned dark again.Jonathan was bewildered by that.What does this mean? Did they have a fight
