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

  • The abandoned Wife    Family Tensions

    Lucian stopped in his tracks upon hearing Roxanne’s voice. He made a turn and walked toward the bed. His gaze turned dark as he regarded the groggy woman with her exposed shoulders.Roxanne mumbled blearily, “What’s wrong? You should go and shower so that you can rest soon.”Lucian’s breathing got heavier as he gazed at her innocent demeanor. However, he was trying his best to suppress his desire.If Roxanne was awake at this moment, she would definitely notice something was wrong and avoid such a situation deftly.Nonetheless, not only did she not notice anything then, but she was also looking up at him without much thought, revealing her bare neck.Not getting a reply from Lucian, Roxanne decided to snuggle back into her blanket.Suddenly, Lucian leaned down to plant a kiss on her face.Roxanne froze for a few seconds. Her drowsiness vanished instantly when she realized what he was doing.He was already on his way to the bathroom when she turned to look at him, leaving her hanging.

  • The abandoned Wife    A Night of Changes

    Lucian had never brought up the wedding plan to her. Roxanne was dumbfounded. She glanced at Lucian beside her, as she didn’t quite know how to react.Lucian suddenly grabbed her hand tightly.Roxanne froze for a second before she lowered her head and squeezed his hand.Sonya was already upset by her son’s words, so seeing the couple’s intertwined hands sent a wave of dizziness through her.“Essie, come over to me.”Since she couldn’t convince her son, she turned her attention to Estella. “I’ll bring you up to sleep.”Estella shook her head and grabbed the corner of Roxanne’s shirt. “I want to be with Mommy.”Sonya took a deep breath as she tried to suppress her anger. “Do you not want Grandma and Grandpa anymore?”Estella felt a little aggrieved upon hearing that. She observed Lucian’s and Roxanne’s expressions carefully before saying, “Can’t I have it all? Mommy, Daddy, Grandpa, and Grandma.”Everyone felt their hearts lurch when Estella’s childish voice rang out.Sonya’s extended

    Roxanne frowned, evidently still unconvinced that was a good idea. “I’m not prepared for this…” Lucian pulled her into his embrace, so they were in close proximity to one another. “You don’t have to prepare anything. I’ll take good care of you and the children.”With that, he sealed her lips with his to prevent her from refusing him.After a long while, Roxanne, whose eyes were watery, finally struggled free from his arms when she felt she was on the verge of suffocation.“I don’t know what you have in mind, but I still think that…”Lucian’s gaze darkened. A hint of displeasure surged within him as he sensed she was still concerning herself with that. Nonetheless, he did not let his emotions show and kept a solemn facial expression.“I don’t want to make things difficult for you either, but the kids have been yearning to meet you even in their dreams. Aubree hasn’t been caught, so I can never feel safe if you live here alone.”Lucian casually lied to Roxanne as she had not been infor

    The two were busy until eight at night. After exiting the laboratory, Jack checked the time and suggested, “It’s late now. Let’s have a meal together. We haven’t seen each other in a while.”However, Roxanne declined apologetically as she was a little worn out, “Let’s do that some other day. I’m too tired today.”“I’ll send you back, then,” he persisted.At his words, she could not help but recall her previous speculation and felt a bit concerned. “I appreciate your offer, Mr. Damaris, but I drove here. I’ll have problems getting to work tomorrow if you send me back, so it’s best not to.”After saying that, she continued without giving him a chance to reply, “It’s indeed a little late. Let’s head out early.”Jack frowned in displeasure when he saw her turning on her heels and followed her to the entrance of the research institute.Just as Roxanne was about to get in her car, he suddenly spoke. “Oh, by the way, if you have time tomorrow afternoon, come to Damaris Group. We haven’t tal

  • The abandoned Wife    Unexpected Lunch and Unwelcome Visitors

    It was past eight in the evening when Roxanne arrived home. When she entered, she saw the three children sitting on the couch, tuning to the financial news channel. Lucian was sitting cross-legged beside them.The four of them were focused on the television.“You’re back?”Lucian was the first to get up when he heard the sound at the door. “There’s food on the table. I just heated it. You should change and come down for dinner.”Only then did the three children shift their focus and run toward her with round bellies. “Mommy, the food that Daddy ordered is delicious!”Roxanne looked amused when she saw how full they were from eating before she shifted her gaze to the CEO before her who seemed to be asking for credit.“What did you—”“I didn’t want to make you worry. You should know I can take good care of them.”Roxanne was taken aback. She looked at how serious Lucian was and felt her heart skip a beat. “I know. That’s why I asked you to look after them.”The three children stared at

  • The abandoned Wife    Unveiling Truths and Making Arrangements

    After much contemplation, Jonathan still thought he had to talk to Lucian face-to-face after learning the truth. Otherwise, the Queen family might meet the same fate as the Pearson family if the Farwells learned about it from Aubree.Jonathan quickly called Lucian and invited him for drinks.Lucian, who had no place to vent his anger for the past two days, agreed without hesitation.The two of them agreed to meet at the club they often went to.When Lucian arrived, Jonathan had already ordered the drinks and was drinking by himself in the private room. He looked pretty angry too.“What’s wrong? Did something happen to the Queen family again?”Lucian took a seat next to him and poured himself a drink.Jonathan was thinking of how to tell Lucian the truth. His mind was a mess.Only when he heard Lucian’s voice did he return to his senses and stop drinking.After a while, he decided to finish the drink in his hand before he smiled bitterly and said, “Lucian, didn’t you say that you susp

  • The abandoned Wife    The Deception Unveiled

    Jonathan’s expression darkened after the call ended. He strode out of the room and stopped outside Frieda’s door. Ever since Aubree left, Frieda had been cooping up in her room due to her guilty conscience.When she heard someone knocking on the door, she was so nervous that she nearly fell out of her bed.“Frieda, it’s me. Open the door.” Jonathan spoke in a firm tone that left no room for negotiation.However, Frieda did not have the guts to face him. Faking a weak voice, she answered, “I’m not feeling well. Can we talk another time…”“If you don’t open the door now, I’ll get the key and open it myself.” Jonathan was adamant about speaking to his sister right then.Frieda had no choice but to get up and open the door. “Jonathan, what’s so urgent that you have to talk to me immediately?”Looking at the woman with a scrutinizing gaze, Jonathan said, “Two million five hundred thousand was found missing from the company’s accounts during the time you were there. What did you spend the

    “As a matter of fact, I still don’t know why Lucian called off your engagement,” Shawn stated his doubts as he fixed his gaze on her. Hearing that, Aubree allowed herself to relax. Hope flashed across her eyes as she asked, “Is there nothing going on between you and Roxanne?”Surprised, Shawn retorted, “Why would you think there’s something going on between us?”Aubree let out a deep breath of relief before unleashing her pent-up emotions and bitter resentment toward Roxanne. “If it wasn’t for that b*tch, I would have been Mrs. Farwell by now! I’ll never forgive her for what she did!”Shawn noticed the change in her gaze and fell silent for a few moments. A strange smile played on his lips as he said, “I can help you.”Aubree’s heart skipped a beat as she met his gaze in delight.She might be wrong, but there seemed to be a calculative look in Shawn’s eyes.Shawn had grown weary of attempting to disguise his intentions. He declared frankly, “You can count on me to provide you with th

    “So? Have you come up with a plan, Aubree?” As time ticked past, Frieda grew increasingly anxious.Aubree recalled something right then and clenched her jaw forcefully. “Have you investigated the man from that night?”Frieda’s eyes turned as wide as saucers. “You’re going to ask for his help? Didn’t you say he’s in cahoots with Roxanne? What if he betrays you?”Determination flashed across Aubree’s eyes. “That’s the only way! The man gave off an unusual aura, so I’m sure he’s a powerful man!”“But… why would someone like him work for Roxanne?” Frieda was filled with confusion.“Did you investigate or not?” Aubree snapped, her patience wearing thin.Frieda gave a hesitant nod. “I checked the surveillance footage and tracked down his house.”“Bring me there!” Aubree said without hesitation.Seeing that she was so determined, Frieda had no choice but to do as told.They hailed a taxi by the roadside, and Frieda gave the driver the address of their destination. The vehicle slowly pulled
