The abandoned Wife Seas of Anticipation: Seeking Dolphin Delights
Roxanne made herself comfortable in the seat, not daring to face the crowd’s stare. She kept her eyes lowered and thanked Lucian, who did not respond. Instead, he stared at her silently before returning to the seat in front of them. The diving instructor, who accompanied Roxanne into the water, climbed up the steps skillfully and returned the camera to her. When he was about to help her remove the swimming gear, he subconsciously glanced at Lucian, worried that the latter might get angry at him for getting too near to Roxanne.Thankfully, Lucian showed no response this time.Only then did the instructor carry on with his task.“Mommy, why did you go down there for so long?” Benny asked worriedly, looking at Roxanne.Roxanne, who had already removed the diving gears with the help of the instructor, appeared pale.The boys could not help but worry at the sight of their mother’s pale face.With a smile on her face, Roxanne comforted, “The scenery down there was really beautiful, so I wa

The deck was rather narrow, but the two adults wanted to give the children enough space to stand there. Thus, both of them stood quite close to each other.From the back, both of them looked like a couple. On top of that, the children’s laughter made them look like a peaceful family.Roxanne wanted to take a step away when she realized the distance between her and Lucian was getting smaller. However, Lucian grabbed her wrist.“What are you doing? Let go!” Roxanne whispered, worried she would frighten the children.Lucian frowned and gazed sternly at her. “Don’t move about. It’s dangerous.”Roxanne was taken aback by Lucian’s expression.Just as she was about to say something, she saw some movements on the surface of the water in the distance.In the next second, the children cheered, “Dolphins! The dolphins are here!”Hearing that, Roxanne and Lucian glanced over.Not far away, a pod of dolphins leaped out of the water and went back in with a splash as they swam toward them.The child

Ultimately, they were children. Despite what happened earlier, Benny returned to his happy self after playing with the dolphins. Seeing it was almost time, the staff in front reminded, “Mr. Farwell, it’s time to return.”Lucian gave him a brief answer and turned to the children standing on the deck. “Come here. It’s time to go back.”However, the children still continued patting the dolphins’ heads, reluctant to leave.Seeing that, Lucian frowned. He had no idea how to get them to come back.Meanwhile, Roxanne was amused to see Lucian’s troubled looks. She stepped forward and said gently, “We’re going back now. Let’s say goodbye to the dolphins.”With that, she held the children’s wrist.Only then did the children return to reality and wave at the dolphins reluctantly. “We’re going back! Goodbye!”As if understanding their words, the dolphins leaped into the air one by one.When Archie and Benny were waving at the dolphins, they felt a wet and slippery feeling on their faces.The chi

The smile on Roxanne’s face deepened when she saw how much Estella liked the conch. Roxanne took the conch and placed it beside Estella’s ear.Estella tilted her head and shot her a puzzled look.“Listen. Legend says conches have the sound of the waves. Can you hear it?” Roxanne gazed at Estella with a smile.When Estella heard that, her eyes lit up, and she listened attentively.After some time, she nodded vehemently. “Yes! I hear it!”This time, it was Roxanne who was surprised.Roxanne was only playing with Estella. Never did she expect the kid to give her a definite answer.For a moment, Roxanne could not help but doubt herself.Archie and Benny came over when Estella said she heard the sound of waves in the conch. “We want to listen to it, too!”Still feeling dubious, Roxanne placed the conch at the boys’ ears.After some time, Archie and Benny nodded vigorously, their eyes sparkling.Their reactions filled Roxanne with greater suspicion. Unable to fight her curiosity, she placed

It was getting dark by the beach, yet the crowd was getting larger and larger. Roxanne’s anxiousness flared as she recalled the incident the night before. Even though a day had pa*sed, she was still worried when she saw the large crowd. She hurriedly rounded up the kids and left the beach.Coincidently, it was dinner time. Lucian took them straight to a nearby restaurant.The kids’ pockets were full of sea shells. They emptied their pockets and set all the shells on the table before launching into a debate over who owned the best-looking shell.Roxanne’s eyes softened and laced with amusement as she watched the kids hard selling the shells in their possession.After a moment, a waiter came to their table with their food. Seeing that, the kids unwillingly kept all their shells.Both kids and adults were starved after spending the entire afternoon at the beach, so they were silent as they dug into their meals.After dinner, Roxanne and Lucian took the kids to a craft workshop.The work

Seeing Roxanne accepting her present, a smile returned to her face.Roxanne carefully kept the keychain in her purse, then reached for the bracelet she made. When she held onto Estella’s wrist, Estella was confused but still lifted her wrist nonetheless.Soon after, she watched as Roxanne clasped an exquisite seashell bracelet over her wrist.Estella’s eyes sparkled seeing the accessory.Roxanne compared Estella’s wrist with the length of the bracelet and let out a breath of relief when they fit. “I have a present for you too. Do you like it?” she asked with a smile.Estella nodded her head with her gaze glued to the bracelet and applied the words she learned from Lucian. “I love everything Ms. Jarvis gives me!”Roxanne laughed at her words.She only learned how to speak recently, yet she already knew how to make me happy with sweet words.Estella was earnest, though. She looked down at the bracelet on her wrist, unwilling to tear her gaze away.Seeing how much Estella loved the brace

They wanted to give Lucian a present, but their expression seemed nervous.After a long while, Roxanne reminded, “Mr. Farwell, please accept it, seeing that it’s the boys’ sweet thought.”Roxanne cast a complex gaze at the boys.She was beginning to suspect if the boys had found out about their identities.Lucian finally snapped out of his thoughts and took the shell from the boy’s hand at Roxanne’s reminder.He opened the shell and saw a pair of exquisite-looking cuff links made of tiny shells sitting in the middle.So they worked so hard earlier to make this pair of cuff links for me?A pang hit Lucian’s heart, and he asked, “Why would you give me a present?”The boys exchanged a glance, and Benny dropped his head shyly while Archie answered, “This is our gratitude for your help in finding Benny yesterday and stopping him from doing something dangerous on the yacht today.”Understanding dawned on Lucian, and a smile tugged at the corners of his lips. “I’ll accept this gift, then.

Benny joined in as well, “We love you the most, Mommy. We won’t like anyone you don’t!”Although those words were what they said, they still felt saddened.They had been happily spending time with Lucian during these few days. The latter had been taking good care of them as well.If it was possible, Archie and Benny wanted their parents to get back together.However, Roxanne obviously did not think the same way. Therefore, the twins could only respect her wishes.Roxanne was moved by their words, but she did not want them to know that she was afraid. She could not show that she was fearful.Upon listening to her children, she pursed her lips and smiled. “Mommy loves you two the most too.”Archie and Benny smiled sweetly at her.Benny, however, could not help but look back.Just as he did, his eyes met Estella’s aggrieved gaze.When their gazes met, Benny quickly tugged at Roxanne’s hand. “Mommy, Essie’s behind us! Should we wait for her?”Roxanne instinctively turned back to look as w

The abandoned Wife Family Ties Unraveled: A Heart-Wrenching Encounter
Roxanne had long guessed Sonya would treat her with an unpleasant attitude. Although she was displeased, she didn’t show it on her face.“It’s Essie and Mr. Farwell’s wishes that Essie stays here. As you’re her grandma, I have nothing to say if you want to bring her back, but I hope you respect Essie’s opinions.”Sonya frowned in displeasure.I’ve already asked Essie just now. I wonder what sorcery Roxanne has cast on her to make her refuse to go home. That’s why I turned to ask Roxanne, but I didn’t expect this woman to be so tactless!Sonya was livid.Just then, Estella spoke. “Grandma, I don’t want to go home. I want to stay here and play with Archie and Benny.”Estella looked at Sonya pitifully.Usually, when Estella wore such an expression, Sonya would have gone along with her wishes. However, she was filled with rage right now, so Estella’s look only added fuel to the fire.“You have to go home even if you don’t want to. You belong to the Farwell family. How can you stay at some
The abandoned Wife Unsettled reunion
Ten minutes ago, Catalina had been instructing the rest of the household staff on their chores when she heard the doorbell ring.The moment she opened the door, she saw that it was Sonya.Before Catalina could greet her, Sonya questioned her, “Where’s Essie? Tell Essie to come out. Tell her that her grandma is here.”Catalina was put in a difficult position.Estella had not been in the manor for the past few days.She had thought that the little girl was with Sonya.However, judging from Sonya’s reaction, Catalina knew there and then that Estella was with Roxanne.It was obvious that Sonya must have discovered that, and that explained her anger.As a servant, Catalina did not know how to answer her question. In the end, she replied, “I will inform Mr. Farwell right away.”She was about to go and seek help from Lucian when Sonya stopped her in her tracks.“I want to see Essie. If she doesn’t come down, I will go up myself.”With that, she began to walk upstairs.Catalina had no choice

“Please wait for a moment as Mrs. Farwell is taking a nap. I’ll tell her you’re here.” After inviting Aubree to sit on the couch in the living hall, the butler was ready to go up to call Sonya.Aubree knitted her brows and responded, “It’s okay. I can go up and check on her.”The butler knew Sonya doted on her. He hesitated but eventually agreed to allow her to go upstairs.Aubree responded with a nod. After plastering a smile on her face, she took the stairs and went up.Sonya had just woken up from her nap in the master bedroom upstairs. Upon hearing a knock on the door, she opened it right away.“Mrs. Farwell.” Aubree grinned politely. “I hope I’m not disturbing you.”Sonya, too, responded with a smile when she realized it was Aubree. “Not at all. I just woke up.”Aubree walked up to her and held her arm affectionately. “I brought you lots of gifts. Let’s go down and check them out.”“Aww, you’re too sweet.” Sonya glanced at her. “You didn’t have to do that. I’m happy that you’re h
The abandoned Wife Veiled Schemes
The search lasted the entire morning.The grim-faced Cayden, who returned with his subordinates in the afternoon, said, “We found nothing, Mr. Farwell.”Admittedly, Cory was an excellent private investigator.Cayden could not help but wonder how he had managed to keep in touch with his employers.Not only did Cayden not find any evidence of how the mastermind instructed Cory to spy on Roxanne, but he also could not find proof that could expose Cory’s identity as a private investigator.Cory began playing the sympathy card. “Mr. Farwell, I told you no one instructed me to do anything.”Lucian waited for half a day but did not get the answer he was looking for. His eyes blazed with fury when he saw the pretentious innocent look on the culprit’s face.“If no one put you up to this, why did you stalk her?” he asked.Cory blinked innocently. “B-Because I find Ms. Jarvis attractive. I wished to snap photos of her since I was trying my hand at photography.”He had felt nervous before Cayden
The abandoned Wife Silent Interrogation
Meanwhile, Lucian, too, ordered Cayden to investigate the issue.With Farwell Group’s financial capability, the investigation was carried out effortlessly.In less than an hour, Cayden had managed to bring the private investigator to Farwell Group.It was not until the private investigator was led to Farwell Group’s entrance that he realized something was off.“D-Did I do something wrong? Why did you bring me here?”Cayden cast him a cold glance. “Why are you asking me that? I’m not the one who calls the shots here. You’ll find out soon.”The private investigator’s legs trembled when he heard Cayden’s words.The only person who came to mind when he thought of the person who called the shots for Farwell Group was none other than Lucian Farwell.The private investigator had recently been following Roxanne around on Aubree’s orders. During those times, he had indeed seen Roxanne interacting with Lucian.Yet, he paid no mind to that.After all, he was merely doing as instructed. He did no

Upon hearing that, the doubtful Roxanne and Madilyn exchanged glances.They had spoken to nearly all the research institutes that could develop that specific bacterium in Horington, and only that research institute confirmed that their laboratory had previously lost the bacteria.Although it happened half a month ago, the bacteria could remain viable as long as they were appropriately preserved.Madilyn was aware of that and didn’t hesitate to ask, “How did you guys lose the bacteria back then? Do you guys have any findings now?”The person’s answer did not disappoint them. “One of the researchers should have taken it,” he said frankly.Madilyn was filled with confusion when she heard that.“Although we have no solid evidence, we were certain about that. Two days after the bacteria went missing, that researcher suddenly quit. We haven’t heard from her since then,” the person continued.Before Madilyn could speak, Roxanne asked, “What’s the name of that researcher?”The person on the o
The abandoned Wife Lost and Found Bacteria
At the side, Estella had her head lifted and gazed at Roxanne, looking hopeful.Roxanne’s gaze flickered. Only after obtaining Lucian’s promise did she forcibly suppress the worry within her.“Got it. I’ll take good care of Essie for the next few days.”Lucian indifferently inclined his head a fraction in acknowledgment. Shortly after, he took his leave and left.Roxanne watched as his car disappeared into the distance before bringing Archie, Benny, and Estella into the mansion.All three children were already starving to the point that their stomachs growled incessantly.Without tarrying, Roxanne prepared some quick and easy breakfast to fill their stomachs first.After having breakfast, she had the children play by themselves while she stood up and went into the study.She simply couldn’t sit back and do nothing about the person who used the bacteria on the children.Worse still, Lucian left Estella at her place. Hence, she wanted to catch the culprit as soon as possible to eliminat
The abandoned Wife Unexpected Arrangements
“Have you and the kids been here?”Lucian came to a stop under a gigantic tree.Stopping with him, Roxanne looked around before shaking her head. “No.”That tree was located at the edge of the woods.Yesterday, she had been with Archie, Benny, and Estella in the woods or by the waterfall.As such, they indeed hadn’t been to that particular spot.Nodding in understanding, Lucian motioned for her to take a look at the bottom of the tree.Roxanne followed his gaze and took a closer look, upon which she made out a vague footprint.From the looks of it, it obviously belonged to an adult.As the footprints moved toward the edge of the gra*sy area, they grew increasingly faint.Therefore, she had no way of knowing whether the owner of those footprints had gone anywhere near the tent.However, it was certain that someone else was there yesterday other than her and the children.In fact, that person had been watching from the side while she was playing with the children.That realization had a
The abandoned Wife Revelation And Resilience
After Archie, Benny, and Estella had dozed off, Roxanne turned off the small night light in the tent.Consequently, the tent was pitch-dark right then, and she had no idea whether Lucian was asleep on the other side.Well, I didn’t hear any movement in a long time, so he has probably gone to sleep.At that thought, Roxanne quietly got up and left the tent. She sat outside under the moonlight alone and stared blankly into space.The weather had been great for the past two days. The moon shone brightly, but there weren’t many stars in the sky.For safety reasons, Lucian had the headlights turned on, illuminating the tent’s surroundings and rendering it like daylight.As Roxanne looked at the scenery around her, her mind gradually began drifting.Too many things had happened that day.At first, the children suddenly contracted a bacterial infection. Then, she inexplicably ended up in the same space as Lucian.Both of the incidents had her emotions turn into a jumbled mess.While she was
