After Roxanne returned to the country with Larry, they basically stayed in Horington the entire time. Seeing that it was a rare opportunity for them to come to Bellridge, she seized the chance to do shopping nearby the event venue since it wasn’t time for lunch.

After lunch, they returned to their respective hotel rooms to get ready for the conference in the afternoon.

The conference officially began in the afternoon.

Roxanne and Larry had arrived at the venue half an hour earlier.

As Roxanne observed the people entering the venue, she could not help but grow increasingly apprehensive.

Just as Larry had told her, the people who attended the event were all prominent figures in the medical field. Although she had never seen them in person, she had seen their pictures on multiple media sources reporting on medical issues.

Larry brought her over to greet them.

“You’re Janet?” The moment one of the seniors realized that Roxanne was Janet, a look of doubt crept up his face. “A woman? More s

  • The abandoned Wife    Unexpected Events

    In Horington, Lucian sent Estella to kindergarten earlier than usual the next morning after the unpleasant conversation with Roxanne the previous day.When he arrived at the kindergarten, there were only a few parents around the area.However, Roxanne was nowhere to be found.Estella obviously wanted to see her. She held on tightly to Lucian’s hand, refusing to go into the kindergarten.Lucian frowned at her stubbornness. Even so, he could only stand outside the kindergarten together with her.It was after a long time that Archie and Benny showed up. This time, however, Roxanne was not the one who came with them.When Lucian noticed that, his eyebrows furrowed even more as he walked up to Lysa while holding Estella’s hand. “Where’s Ms. Jarvis? Doesn’t she usually drop Archie and Benny off at school?”Ever since they parted ways at the hospital, Lysa had never met Lucian again. She did not know that Roxanne and Lucian had got into an argument.Therefore, with the thought of them still

    Lucian’s expression hardened further as he observed Cayden’s nod. “Find out which hotel they are staying at.”At this point, Cayden knew what Lucian wanted to do. After a moment’s hesitation, he said, “Mr. Farwell, they will have a gathering tonight, and it’s just nearby. I’m sure Mr. Morrison and Ms. Jarvis will be present.”Lucian nodded. “In that case, let’s meet Mr. Zimmerman of Prosperity Corporation at that restaurant tonight.”Cayden nodded in agreement and contacted the CEO’s secretary to schedule the meeting.He was certain that the other party would not object to it.That night, Roxanne and Larry attended the gathering, an event hosted by the organizing committee of the conference.It took place at a high-class restaurant known as Ocean Restaurant. The restaurant was situated near the hotel where the medical conference was held that same afternoon.The organizing committee had already booked a private room for the attendees in advance. As soon as Roxanne and Larry entered th

    Roxanne frowned and stepped back, putting some distance between them before greeting, “Dr. Chambers, it’s been a while.”The middle-aged man was a doctor working in the hospital that was a partner of Roxanne’s research institute. Roxanne had only met him several times before this, and aside from his last name Chambers, Roxanne knew nothing else about him.Seeing that he didn’t mistake another person for her, he got bolder and looked at Roxanne in a perverted manner. “I remember thinking you’re beautiful when we met at the research institute. Dr. Jarvis, now that I’ve seen you out of your research lab coat, I realize that not only you’re beautiful, but you also have a great body.”As he spoke, he slowly approached Roxanne. “Look at your face. It’s glowing. Let me touch it…”Noticing that he had stretched out his greasy hand toward her, Roxanne felt disgusted and slapped his hand away. “Dr. Chambers, you should know your boundaries!”He was startled for a couple of seconds before realiz

  • The abandoned Wife    Bloody Encounter

    Roxanne lowered her gaze. “I am a doctor. I’ll come up with a way eventually.”Having studied acupuncture for so many years, Roxanne knew which acupuncture points could make someone instantly lose the energy to attack but not lethal enough to kill them.If the doctor dared to get any closer to her, Roxanne would not hesitate to let him learn the brutal way about the gap between their medical knowledge.However, before she could make a move, Lucian had already appeared before them.Hearing that, Lucian immediately understood the implication behind her words.Back when Roxanne was performing acupuncture on Alfred, Lucian had watched her from one side, so he was aware of just how knowledgeable she was with human acupuncture points.It was certainly enough to show that Roxanne had the ability to defend herself.Thinking of this, Lucian could not help but feel more relieved.However, Lucian was still upset to see her indifferent expression toward him. “In that case, can I assume you’re see

  • The abandoned Wife    The Tension And Dynamics

    Roxanne’s makeup was light enough to enhance her delicate features. She looked so beautiful that the waitress thought she was a celebrity at first. Lucian, on the other hand, had sharp features and a tall build, and he exuded the aura of an authoritative CEO. The waitress could not help but picture them as a perfect match made in heaven.Of course, Roxanne was unaware of what the waitress was thinking about her and Lucian.She felt slightly unwell as the alcohol had finally started kicking in. Her reactions to alcohol always came slower than others.However, since she had asked Lucian out for a cup of coffee, she felt it was inappropriate for her to leave with the excuse of her feeling unwell. That would only give Lucian another reason to mock her.With this in mind, Roxanne suppressed the discomfort inside her and took a sip of her coffee, trying to cancel out the feeling of being drunk.Lucian took a sip of the coffee as he remained expressionless, masking the displeasure he was fe

  • The abandoned Wife    Tension, Unexpected Encounters And Concern

    Lucian furrowed his brows. “I’m not planning to do anything. You can rest assured.”Seeing how pale she looked, he just couldn’t feel at ease..Roxanne could only stand there as he walked into the bedroom and lifted the phone on the nightstand.“Hello? Please bring some hangover medicine,” Lucian told the receptionist through the phone.In no time, a knock came from the door.Roxanne and Lucian didn’t close the door when they entered earlier, so when Roxanne craned her neck and looked at the door, she saw a hotel staff standing outside with the hangover medicine and a glass of warm water.Lucian walked over and took the medicine and water before thanking the hotel staff. Approaching Roxanne, he said, “Take the medicine, and I’ll leave.”Roxanne didn’t know what to do with him. She could only comply and accept the hangover medicine.The next moment, he passed the glass of water to her.Anyone who saw the scene would never think that he was the almighty Mr. Farwell of Horington.Roxanne

    Larry stiffened, and a thought immediately ran through his head.Did Lucian check in to this hotel because of Roxanne? What’s going on between them?With that in mind, Larry hesitated for a bit before approaching Lucian. “Mr. Farwell, do you need anything from Roxanne?” he asked casually.Raising his brow, Lucian replied, “She wasn’t feeling well last night, so I brought her back. Naturally, I have to check on her.”His answer confirmed the doubts Larry had.The latter smiled gently. “It’s nice of you to be concerned, Mr. Farwell. But I don’t think Roxanne wants to see you.”Instantly, Lucian’s eyes darkened, and the atmosphere around them turned tense.Yet, Larry acted as though he noticed nothing. With the smile still on his face, he calmly turned to face the door to Roxanne’s room.Inside, Roxanne had already woken up, washed her face, and brushed her teeth. When she heard the knocks on the door, she thought it was Larry, so she walked over and opened it without much thought.At th

    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

  • The abandoned Wife    Unexpected Visit

    Lucian didn’t expect his father to be in such a hurry to go and pick Estella up. After hanging up the phone, he glanced at the time. Seeing that it was still relatively early, he wanted to phone Roxanne to inform her about the situation. But on second thought, he snagged his jacket and went downstairs.Downstairs, Catalina had just prepared dinner. When she saw her employer coming down, she hollered, “The food is ready, Mr. Farwell.”Lucian halted in his steps for a fleeting second. “Go on and eat. I’m not having dinner at home.”Having said that, he left in huge strides without waiting for a response from her.Catalina stared at the man’s back, bewildered for a moment. In the next heartbeat, understanding dawned upon her.Aha! Who else could induce such an expression on Mr. Farwell’s face? He must be on his way out to visit Ms. Jarvis once more. Thus, he’s also likely having dinner there!Roxanne had just finished cooking dinner and led the three children to the dining table. They h

  • The abandoned Wife    Matrimonial Tensions

    Elias frowned, and when he spoke, his voice was tinged with a hint of exasperation. “I’ve long since told you to let Lucian make the decisions himself when it comes to his marriage. Everyone is free to live their own lives. Why must we meddle so much?”Disapproval was written all over Sonya’s face. “How could I possibly allow that? Is Lucian’s marriage his business alone? Never mind if he wants to marry some other woman, but why must it be that woman?”Why must it be Roxanne? Worse still, she comes with two little bastards!Seeing that she was still dissatisfied with Roxanne, Elias patiently cajoled, “No matter who he wants to be with, that’s his business. He matured into an adult ages ago. We can’t interfere in everything.”But still, Sonya remained obstinate and griped, “If he had finalized his marriage with Aubree earlier, all this wouldn’t have happened.”After saying that, she shot the man beside her a chagrined look. “You’re no better. It’s because you allowed him free rein in

    Roxanne’s life was soon back on the right track while Lucian’s was still in chaos. Lucian considered going to Roxanne’s place in the evening after handling all the accumulated work in Farwell Group. However, he received a phone call from his mother, who asked him to return home as soon as possible.Lucian furrowed his brows at his mother’s annoyed tone. Nevertheless, he still drove back to the manor.As soon as he stepped into the house, he was greeted by the sight of Sonya sitting on the couch.“Why are you here?” he questioned with a frown.Sonya turned to look at him and said unhappily, “If I hadn’t come here, I wouldn’t even know you were back!”He had not mentioned to anyone about him going overseas with Roxanne.Sonya had come over every day to ask her son for an explanation but always ended up empty-handed.When she called him and mentioned Roxanne and the kids, he would always give a half-hearted response before hanging up.Hence, Sonya had nowhere to vent her anger.Since th

  • The abandoned Wife    Crossroads of Trust

    Roxanne was moved by his words but remained hesitant. “Perhaps, but I lack enough knowledge of cancer to support the research on an anti-cancer medicine.” Over the past few years, she had been more focused on researching how to treat patients through acupuncture. She simply didn’t know enough about medicinal herbs to be confident in developing an anti-cancer medicine.Sensing her worries, Jack said, “I won’t lie. Only a few medical books kept in the Damaris residence touch on this research. However, the reason the research in those books was halted was due to technical issues at the time. It was also these books that inspired me.”Roxanne’s eyes glinted upon hearing that. If I can take a look at those books, perhaps I’ll get some inspiration, too. Then again, those books are properties of the Damaris family. I don’t know if he’s willing to lend them to an outsider.“The books about traditional medicine I lent you in the past were a part of that collection. If you’re interested, I can

    While the reporters’ photos depicted a woman standing at the helicopter door, Jack knew Lucian was behind it. He thought the matter had ended when the celebrity scandals dominated the public consciousness that afternoon. Thus, the next day, he planned to meet up with Roxanne by using the project as an excuse.To his surprise, her a*sistant told him she wasn’t in the research institute.In fact, he received the same answer over the next few days.By then, no matter how stupid Jack was, he could still realize what was happening.He knew Roxanne had left with Lucian, so he wondered how long it would take them to return.To his surprise, it was a whole week, and that enraged him.Jack was still upset as he spoke. “Even though the development of our project was about to begin, the person in charge of the research institute was nowhere to be found. What do you think I should say about that, Ms. Jarvis?”When he brought up the project, Roxanne felt guilty and apologized further. “I’m really

    In the end, Lucian called Jeffrey and requested a week’s leave for the children.With that out of the way, the three adults took the three children on a trip to Miralaea.Just as Jeffrey hung up the phone, a gentle-looking teacher entered the room.“You’re here, Ms. Smith,” he greeted. “You understand the situation about the cla*s, yes? Mr. Farwell’s children are in it, and the a*sistant teacher is on leave. I’m worried Ms. Ward won’t be able to manage the cla*s alone, so you’ll be helping her out for now.”Smiling, Ophelia Smith nodded. “I understand, Mr. Bauer. You don’t need to worry a thing.”Jeffrey scrutinized her and thought she looked pretty gentle. “I’m leaving them in your hands, so don’t mess things up.”“Should I greet them now?”“They’ve just started their one-week leave. Once they’ve returned, Ms. Ward will introduce them to you.”When Ophelia heard that, the look in her eyes imperceptibly darkened for just a moment. “I see. If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave no

    We didn’t see anything!” Madilyn smiled mischievously as she feigned ignorance.The children nodded along. “We didn’t either!”Then, Madilyn attempted to sneak away with the kids as though nothing had happened.Just as she turned around, Roxanne said, “Come over here. Let’s talk.”Thus, Madilyn twirled around again and saw a resigned expression on her best friend’s face.Roxanne and Lucian, who was slightly displeased, proceeded to sit next to each other on the couch.Upon hearing their mother’s summon, the children rushed over to sit around her.Only Madilyn was left standing at the entrance of the room.Glancing at the family of five, she cleared her throat, stepped toward the single-seat couch, and plopped down.Frowning, Roxanne questioned, “You said you’ve devised a way to handle the fallout. What do you suggest we do?”In response, Lucian shifted his line of sight to Madilyn, too.Madilyn could still sense the cold look in his eyes, so she did her best to ignore him and focus on

    Meanwhile, Roxanne was still lost in a daze. “Madilyn, what…”Cocking a brow, Madilyn stepped aside to usher them in. “Come onboard. I’m here to pick you up.”Roxanne was blown away by the words.Is she asking us to get in the helicopter and leave just like that? We might be able to escape this time, but what about when the reporters come for us again?When she saw Roxanne remaining motionless, the puzzled Madilyn urged her, “Hurry up! What are you still hesitating for? Whatever concerns you have, we’ll discuss it on board.”She extended her hand while speaking.With the helicopter hovering right before her eyes, Roxanne realized that Madilyn’s effort would go to waste if she didn’t get on.Holding that thought, Roxanne took the latter’s hand. Given how close the helicopter was, all she needed to do was take a step forward to board it.After carrying Estella over, Roxanne turned around to do the same with the boys. Little did she expect them to be raring to go.Reciprocating their ent

    It wasn’t until Lucian heard Madilyn’s words that he realized her point and stopped in his tracks.“This whole incident might just blow over if you don’t show up, but it will definitely worsen if you make an appearance. If that happens, they might even swarm Farwell Group along with Roxanne’s house!” Madilyn reminded him.She knew the mentality of those journalists all too well.Lucian clenched his fists so tightly that his veins were bulging from underneath his skin. “What should I do, then?” he asked while trying to suppress his anger.I wouldn’t have acted so impulsively if I knew this would happen!Madilyn rolled her eyes at him in response. Why is he asking us for a solution when he’s the one who caused all this?“Mr. Farwell, how about we send someone over to get Mrs. Farwell out of there?” Cayden suggested cautiously.“How are you going to do that? There are so many journalists around!” Madilyn snapped at him.Cayden fell silent and flashed her an awkward look in response.“If
