The abandoned Wife Confronting Misunderstandings
“Mr. Damaris, what do you want to say to me?” Roxanne asked after taking a seat beside him. She genuinely did not want to cause a scene, and Jessica, who was beside her, was staring at her. If Jack could not come out with any topic, Roxanne was certain that Jessica’s stare would burn a hole in her.Jack knew well what kind of situation she was in, so he said casually, “I’ll be relying on both you and Mr. Morrison for this collaboration, so let me express my thanks first.”With that, he raised his gla*s and downed it.Roxanne lifted her gla*s politely and took a few sips as well.“Jessica, where did that woman come from? Why does it seem that Mr. Damaris thinks of her as someone important?”“She’s not in some kind of relationship with Mr. Damaris, right? She looks like someone who knows how to seduce men!”The friends Jessica had brought along with her all grumbled about Roxanne and whispered their speculations to Jessica when they saw the way Jack treated Roxanne.Jessica already fel

“I’ll send Ms. Jarvis back,” came Jack’s voice from the side. Roxanne froze, and she quickly said, “It’s fine.”Even though they were close enough to be considered friends, Roxanne did not think that they were that close enough for Jack to send her home.She rejected Larry’s offer because she felt that it would be inconvenient to do so.However, she rejected Jack because she felt that they were not close enough for him to send her back.Naturally, Jack could see the difference between Larry and him. Still, despite knowing that, he was disappointed.“There’s no need for you to be this courteous with me, Ms. Jarvis. We’ll be working together in the near future. I just wish for us to get closer so that we can work better together.” Then he tamped down the rising strange feelings in him. “Also, I’m about to go back to my place, and your house is on my way. It won’t be troublesome at all.”A crease appeared between Roxanne’s brows.Every excuse she could think of to reject Jack had been d

As soon as she said that, and before the people could react, Jessica lunged toward Roxanne. Jack had pushed her closer to Roxanne just now, so there was no one between the two. By the time Larry turned around upon hearing the commotion, Jessica was already a hair’s breadth away from Roxanne. “Roxanne, watch out!” Larry cried out, barely managing to pull Roxanne behind him. At the same time, Jack walked over and gripped Jessica’s arm. “Are you done?” Jessica ended up lunging toward an empty spot and was even berated by Jack. Her anger reached its peak, and she burst into tears. As she bawled, she pointed at Roxanne and continued cursing. There were people walking out of the hotel, and when they noticed the commotion, they stopped in their tracks to watch the drama. Roxanne stood behind Larry, her heart still racing. She noticed that there were more and more people gathering around them, and she knew that she had to step forward and end the scene. If things were to continu

The man’s domineering presence silenced the crowd. Someone in the crowd finally came back to their senses when Lucian walked past them and whispered, “It’s Mr. Farwell!” Upon hearing those words, the crowd erupted into an uproar. They did not even care about their reputation anymore as they stared at Lucian’s back. Although they were all from prestigious families in Horington, they were ants in comparison to Lucian. Moreover, they could barely have the chance to see Lucian in person. Therefore, now that they had the chance to do that, they couldn’t help staring at him to their hearts’ content. Lucian’s face was an eye candy for all. Roxanne could only stay rooted to her spot in the middle of the crowd as she watched the man amble toward her. The look on her face had frozen, and she did not know what kind of reaction she should have at that moment. It seems that I have had ill luck recently. Not only is a drunkard seeking trouble with me at work, but Lucian’s here at such horrendo

Everyone heard Jessica clearly. Of course, they did not know much about the medical field. Hence, they merely nodded at Jessica’s remarks.After all, they had the perception that accomplished doctors would typically be in their fifties. People would not normally a*sociate a young and beautiful woman like Roxanne with being an accomplished doctor in the medical field.Jessica’s hand edged closer and closer to Roxanne’s face. The latter’s face turned cold. She was ready to swat off Jessica’s hand at any moment right then.However, before Roxanne could do so, a large hand struck first and immobilized Jessica’s hand.The man clutching her hand had evidently exerted a considerable amount of force, so much so that Jessica lost her balance and staggered a few steps back and missed Roxanne’s face.“You could consult Dr. Lambert if you have any doubts about her medical skills, or you could also ask Old Mr. Queen. I believe he will have an answer for you.” Lucian threw a scornful look at the t

Roxanne could feel the air growing still right then. Needless to say, it was because of Lucian.Roxanne clenched her fist and told herself repeatedly not to turn around and watch. She wanted to pretend that Lucian was not there at all.His question had made her squirm uneasily. At the thought of his out-of-place confession, Roxanne was worried that he might make more unreasonable demands.Meanwhile, Jack frowned when he saw that the driver was running late.“Let me make a call,” Jack said as he took out his phone.The next moment, Lucian’s voice rang out. “Since Mr. Damaris’ driver is going to take some time, I could send you home if you don’t mind, Ms. Jarvis.”Roxanne tensed up once again and turned around immediately to reject his offer. “That won’t be necessary. I’ve already made the arrangement with Mr. Damaris. Feel free to leave first if you’re in a rush, Mr. Farwell!”Then Roxanne scurried to Jack’s side.She did not wish to be alone with Lucian, afraid that he might say anyt

Jack’s gaze gradually darkened as he stared at their leaving figures from behind. Their current relationship is genuinely baffling me. I can see that Lucian inclines to win Roxanne back, but I cannot figure out her stance. Complicated emotions surged within Jack when he was reminded of Roxanne’s appearance as she stood under the lights earlier. She’s clueless about my feelings.Along the way, Lucian wrapped his hand around Roxanne’s wrist tightly.He exerted a great force on her wrist and caused her to be in pain.“Let go of me!”She tried to break free of his grip, but her futile attempt merely prompted him to grab her more closely and firmly.Lucian decided never to let go of her hand anymore because when he had done so earlier, Roxanne almost approached another man.She had no choice but to give up after a few times of struggling in vain and having her complaints disregarded by Lucian the whole time.As a result, she allowed him to drag her along to the roadside.The driver had al

Roxanne soon recognized the inappropriateness of her words after she was done talking. She was under the a*sumption that Lucian would retort what she said coldly but didn’t hear his voice even after some time.Amidst the silence, the atmosphere inside the car grew more unfavorable.Just as Roxanne was about to speak further, Lucian’s slightly resigned voice sounded. “If that’s the case, please treat me the same way you treat your other suitors, and don’t be prejudiced against anyone.”He contemplated for a long while and had no choice but to concede.When Roxanne heard that, her heart instantly clenched. She even doubted if her ears were playing tricks on her. How could someone as proud and arrogant as Lucian say something like that?“If Mr. Morrison is the other suitor you’re talking about, Ms. Jarvis, please treat me the same way you treat him. After all, we’ve known one another for almost as long as you are acquainted with Mr. Morrison.”Lucian pinched between his brows with inexp

Roxanne was dog-tired. She would doze off almost immediately after getting into her bed for the past couple of nights. That night, however, she couldn’t fall asleep even after being in bed for quite a long while.Instead of feeling sleepy, all she could think about was Lucian’s desire-filled gaze.Roxanne couldn’t help but feel nervous when she knew that Lucian was still downstairs.She only heaved a sigh of relief inwardly when she heard the sound of the door closing coming from downstairs.After that, she went to the window and saw Lucian getting into his car. The car stayed motionless for a while before leaving the compound slowly.Roxanne watched Lucian’s car disappear from her sight before returning to bed and dozing off within seconds.She didn’t know whether Lucian’s ma*sage was the reason or not, but she felt more energized when she woke up in the morning.Since it was a Sunday, Roxanne stayed home with the kids instead of going to the research institute. At the same time, sh
The abandoned Wife Unspoken Desires: A Tense Encounter Between Lucian and Roxanne
The two of them didn’t continue talking after that, and Lucian had moved from ma*saging her temples to ma*saging her shoulders. When he was moving his hands, he either intentionally or accidentally brushed his thumbs across her neck.Roxanne was caught off guard, and her body froze when she suddenly felt as though an electric current had coursed through her.In the next second, Lucian was already ma*saging her shoulders. “How are you feeling? Am I pressing too hard?” he asked softly.Roxanne turned around to meet Lucian’s gentle gaze. She was startled, so she immediately retracted her eyes and nodded. “It’s fine.”Little did she know Lucian wasn’t planning to let go of her just yet. “I don’t know which acupuncture point can help you relax. How about you teach me?”As he was talking, he loosened his grips.In a flash, the atmosphere became ambiguous.Roxanne feigned calmness and cleared her throat. “Why would you want to know that? It’s not like you can ma*sage yourself.”In a natural
The abandoned Wife A Moment of Understanding: Lucian and Roxanne's Heartfelt Conversation
When the four of them arrived home, Roxanne was already done preparing dinner, and she was resting on the couch. Upon hearing noises at the door, she woke up immediately and went to open the door.“Mommy!”The kids rushed toward her and hugged her legs.Roxanne lowered her gaze and patted their heads with a smile on her face. “Did you guys have fun today?”Benny nodded fervently before turning back to look at Lucian with his pair of bright eyes. “Yes! Daddy brought us to the amusement park, and we watched a movie!”Roxanne smiled when she heard the joy in Benny’s voice.She only realized how Benny had addressed Lucian a few seconds later. When she did, the smile on her face froze.Instead of asking Benny what was going on, she gave Lucian an inquisitive glance.Noticing that, Lucian explained matter-of-factly, “I told them to address me so when we’re in the public. After all, I’ve already made it known to the public. If others were to hear them addressing me another way, it would be
The abandoned Wife A Day of Revelations: Lucian's Bond with the Children
Benny opened the door, and Lucian immediately saw the three children waiting to greet him at the door. “Daddy!”“Mr. Farwell!”They sounded aggrieved and gazed at him as though he was their savior.Lucian could not resist ruffling their hair affectionately at the sight of their adorable pouting faces. Then he looked up and cast his gaze around the living room. “Where’s your mommy?”It’s the weekend, so she should be home.“Mommy’s working overtime. She has already been working late the past few days. We’ve had to stay home alone, and it’s so boring!” Benny whined, and Archie and Estella nodded in agreement.Lucian’s brows drew together slightly when he heard their complaints. No wonder she sounded so tired whenever I called her the last two days. I thought she was exhausted from looking after these three little tykes and purposely came over to take them out for a treat. However, it turns out it’s because she has been working.Seeing how dispirited the children looked, he suggested, “
The abandoned Wife Sonya's Revelation and Aubree's Retaliation
Meanwhile, in the Farwell residence, Sonya felt nauseous upon seeing the photo being shared all over the internet. In the past, Aubree had told Sonya time and time again that she was in love with Lucian.It had only been a few days since the two families had called off the engagement. Sonya was surprised and disgusted when she saw that Aubree had already checked into a room with another man.Aubree even went as far as making love with him as if nothing has happened! She must have done so willingly! This time, someone took a photo and made it viral. Who knows whether or not she had been unfaithful during all those years of her engagement with Lucian? Her so-called “love” for Lucian was nothing but a lie!At the thought of herself being tricked by Aubree, Sonya could not help but feel humiliated.All of a sudden, the support Sonya had shown Aubree all those years seemed like a waste of time.If she had allowed someone like Aubree to be married into the Farwell family, people would have

“B*tch!” Meanwhile, in the mansion in the suburb, Aubree was reading the comments all over the internet. A crazed look was on her face as she shrieked, “B*stards! I will never, ever, let you guys get away with this!”I was wrong about that man! He said he knew me, so I thought he had nothing to do with Roxanne.But in hindsight, who else besides Roxanne would do something so wretched? Besides that b*tch, who else would benefit from me becoming a joke? Roxanne must be taking her revenge on me! It has to be her!Aubree wanted to kill Roxanne. Her gaze hardened with unparalleled hatred.Anger clouded Aubree’s mind as she grabbed her handbag and stormed toward the door. The only thing on her mind was take revenge against Roxanne.Just as she flung the door open, she was halted by her father.Samuel’s venomous glare burned into her skin. “Have you no shame? How dare you still think about going out at a time like this? Do you think it’s not embarra*sing enough?”With each word he spoke, Sa

“Fiancée?” Kai shot back a question with a meaningful look. “Which fiancée are you talking about? During your absence, a lot of things have happened in Mr. Farwell’s life!” Shawn’s heart sank slightly when he heard that. “What do you mean? Isn’t Aubree Pearson his fiancée?”Kai laughed out loud when he heard that. “That was eight hundred years ago! Back then, I noticed that Lucian had been treating Aubree with indifference. I found it strange that the Farwell and Pearson families have managed to hold on to the engagement for many years.”Shawn did not respond. Instead, he continued to listen to his friend’s rambling.“The Farwell family called off the engagement two years ago. Lucian even implied that Aubree has a poor character. It turns out that his ex-wife is back in the country with two children. Right now, the Pearson family is being made bankrupt by the Farwell family, and Lucian is getting it on with his ex-wife again!”Kai was very animated when he was gossiping. It was as if

“I would say I’m pretty easy on the eyes. Getting to sleep with me isn’t that much of a loss for you.” He tucked a finger under her chin and lifted it so that she was looking right at him. “You truly are a delicacy. I hope you won’t forget me anytime soon.” As he spoke, his hand began to slide down Aubree’s neck, and he started to bend down until he was hovering right over her.She snapped back to her senses and pushed his hand away with a scowl on her face. “Get out! Don’t make me repeat myself!”The man chuckled amusedly at her angry look and actually began to walk out.Soon enough, Aubree was left alone in the hotel roomShe began to look around her, trying to recall what had happened last night.No matter how much she tried to make sense of her surroundings, she just couldn’t remember what happened.She had a*sumed that someone had been hired to a*sault her.However, that man didn’t look like someone who could be hired.

Cory’s face was clouded over with disdain. “Obviously, I’m taking a picture of my lovely ex-boss. Aubree was the one who made me who I am today. How can I possibly forgive her so easily?” As he spoke, an ominous aura radiated from him as if he were a devil from hell. There was an imminent chill in the air that seemed to come from his sheer hatred toward Aubree.Frieda couldn’t help but shudder at his demeanor.“Have you gone insane? The Pearson family is already in ruins. How are you still not satisfied yet?”Cory snickered. “I won’t be satisfied until she truly gets what she deserves. Besides, she did this to herself!”He narrowed his eyes and began scrutinizing the people in front of him.“You don’t have to play pretend around me, Ms. Queen. Don’t you want to shut her up for good too? In fact, you’re probably still getting threatened by her, right?”Frieda’s eyelids quivered as she forced herself to look away. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”She might have done her best t
