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
The abandoned Wife Unsettling Revelations
Dead silence reigned in the car. One could sense that the atmosphere was entirely different from when Jonathan was present earlier, giving off a sense of an impending storm.Roxanne was sitting straight, her gaze trained right ahead. She tried her best to ignore the man beside her.She wasn’t sure whether she was imagining things, but his piercing gaze seemingly locked on her since Jonathan alighted from the car. It had her tensing up subconsciously.All of a sudden, Lucian’s voice rang out beside her.“Have I offended you in any way, Ms. Jarvis?”Relief suffused Roxanne when she heard his voice. She flashed him a detached smile. “Why would you say that, Mr. Farwell?”Lucian eyed her with a dark look, his voice threaded with displeasure. “If that’s not the case, why are you avoiding me thus, Ms. Jarvis?”Frowning slightly, Roxanne feigned ignorance. “When have I avoided you, Mr. Farwell? Precisely speaking, I don’t have much of a chance to meet you since our work doesn’t intersect.”I
The abandoned Wife A Night's Unsettling Encounter
Roxanne made every effort to calm herself down. She met Lucian’s gaze calmly and stated gently, “With you acting in such a manner now, Lucian, I’ll only find you even more of a stranger.”As far as she remembered, he had always been calm and unruffled. In fact, he was rather apathetic.At least, that was his personality six years ago.At present, he had become unfathomable to her.Perhaps that comment of hers worked, for she sensed the grip on her chin seemingly relaxing gradually.She held her breath.A while later, Lucian withdrew his hand and sat back in his seat. He gazed at her with a complex look in his eyes. “What exactly do you want?”That question rang out before Roxanne could breathe a sigh of relief. At once, bewilderment swamped her.It should be me asking him that. I’ve already made my stance clear as day. What exactly does he want?“Never mind that you’re avoiding me, but you’re not even visiting Essie anymore. Are you really this callous, Roxanne?” Lucian pinned a sharp
The abandoned Wife Dreams Of Departure
It was already late in the night when Lucian returned to the Farwell residence.Estella had already fallen asleep a long while ago.Lucian’s heart ached when he was reminded of how Roxanne had completely avoided mentioning Estella just now. He went upstairs to Estella’s room.The little girl had a serene sleeping posture. She lay on her side with half her face covered with blanket, seemingly sound asleep.Lucian’s gaze softened at the sight of his daughter. He lifted his arm and patted her head. Then, he tucked her in before getting up and left.Just when he reached the door, he suddenly heard a sound behind him as if Estella was sobbing.He stopped abruptly in his tracks, turned on his heels, and returned to her bedside. Lucian gently pulled away the blanket covering Estella’s face and saw her brows furrowed, eyes shut, and beads of tears staining her long eyelashes.He wondered what kind of nightmare she was experiencing.Lucian felt sorrowful when he saw her daughter in that state.
The abandoned Wife Strategic Alliance
After hanging up the phone, Jonathan rang Roxanne right away.Roxanne picked up the phone very quickly and asked, “Mr. Queen, did the medicinal herb suppliers set up a time to meet already?”Jonathan smiled and answered, “Yes. They’re hoping to meet up and discuss the details in two days’ time. However, it depends on whether you’ll be free by then.”The biggest issue the research institute had was the supply of medicinal herbs. Naturally, Roxanne prioritized the meeting and agreed to meet them without any hesitation. “I’ll be free. Please let them know I’ll show up on time.”“You don’t have to prepare anything. Once you’ve arrived, there’ll be someone there to fetch you,” Jonathan answered.In response, Roxanne said, “Thank you, Mr. Queen. Thank you for your help.”Jonathan smiled and replied, “No worries. You’ve done a lot in curing my grandpa back then.”After all, considering the relationship between Roxanne and Lucian, he felt as though it was his duty to help out.At the same tim
The abandoned Wife Unexpected encounter
Roxanne thought she was just there to sign the contract, and she didn’t expect to be invited to a banquet.Since she was dealing with a potential business partner, she thought it would be disrespectful for her to show up wearing a suit.After giving it some thought, Roxanne gave Madilyn a call.Madilyn picked up the call fairly quickly, and she asked, “What’s up, Roxanne? Aren’t you in Summerbank for work?”A day before she went to Summerbank, Roxanne had asked Madilyn to help her take care of Archie and Benny.Madilyn thought Roxanne was worried about Archie and Benny because of the sudden phone call, so she said, “Don’t worry, okay? I’ve already sent Archie and Benny to the kindergarten, and I watched them go in.”Roxanne chuckled and answered, “With you in charge, I’m not worried. I just want to know if you know of any boutiques in Summerbank. I’m attending a banquet this evening.”Hearing that, Madilyn raised her brows in puzzlement. “Aren’t you there to sign a contract? How did y

Roxanne pursed her lips in annoyance and tried to free herself from his grip. However, her effort was futile.Lucian noticed her intention, and he said with a solemn expression, “Are you really going to hail a taxi, dressed like that? Can’t you see what the weather is like?”“You don’t have to worry about me, Mr. Farwell. I can take care of myself,” Roxanne replied coldly.That was when Lucian realized he had made his concern for her too obvious. He then furrowed his brows and said, “I doubt you can get a taxi now. By the time you get a taxi, you’ll be late for the banquet.”Hearing that, Roxanne turned her head to check out the street. He’s right. Neon Boutique is in such a secluded area, and the road barely has cars pa*sing by. Heck, I don’t even see a taxi in this area unless I walk further down the road. Even so, I don’t want Lucian to give me a ride.Roxanne then turned her head back toward Lucian. When she was about to say something, her phone suddenly rang.Roxanne frowned and
The abandoned Wife Unimaginable Encounter
Roxanne frowned in exasperation. Not knowing where to begin, she merely said, “We met by coincidence downstairs.”However, Larry looked doubtful.Seeing his expression, Roxanne relaxed her brows and said pleadingly, “Anyway, it’s not what you think. It’s impossible between me and him.”She did not want anyone to misunderstand her relationship with Lucian.Seeing her sincerity, Larry smiled gently and stopped pursuing the matter. Instead, he said, “Mr. Lynch is resting upstairs, and Mr. Ziegler is keeping him company. They’re waiting for you. Are you looking for them?”Roxanne had been searching for them the entire day but to no avail. As soon as she heard Larry’s words, she heaved a sigh of relief and nodded. “Where are they? Can you please take me to them? I’ve got something important to discuss with Mr. Ziegler, and I need to apologize to Mr. Lynch.”Larry gladly agreed. He brought her out of the banquet hall and headed upstairs.At the same time, Lucian watched them leave, looking
