The Abandoned Wife Lucian Pdf Novels & Stories

My face was pale as I turned to leave. The abortion medicine slid down my throat and into my stomach. The pain in my abdomen was excruciating. I could clearly feel the warm blood streaming down my legs. I took out my phone with trembling hands. Just as I was about to call an ambulance, Alana suddenly appeared and slapped the phone to the ground. "You want to go to the hospital? In your dreams! I won't allow a wretch like you to ruin the Greenwood family's bloodline! You can forget about ever giving birth to a child!"

The memory clawed its way up—filthy words, cruel laughter, hands reaching— He squeezed his eyes shut. Lucian’s grip on his shoulder gentled. "You think running from me will save you?" Lucian murmured. "You’re alone now. No family. No friends. No home." Elias’s throat closed. He forced himself to look up, defiant despite the terror clawing at him. "You don't know anything about me." Lucian’s silver eyes gleamed. "I know enough," he said, voice like smoke. "I know the Everstones cast you out like trash. I know their precious heir cried wolf and you took the fall."

“My daughter, Layla! And we’ve been living under the same roof all this time!” Layla froze. So he’d finally found out. “Your daughter?” she echoed with a bitter laugh. “You abandoned me after that night like the heartless man you are! I had no one, Lucian…no one! I didn’t even know your name back then. Do you have any idea what I went through?” “I... I—she’s still my daughter,” Lucian said hoarsely, guilt flickering in his eyes. Layla’s lips trembled, but she held her ground. “She’s mine to protect. And if you try to take her from me, Lucian Hilton, I swear….I’ll ruin you.”

Luci was not interested in his games. “Unfortunately, I don’t, but I will advise you to change your view, because soon, you will find that you have no choice.” He said this so seriously, Lucianda’s gaze went to him, surprised by the swift change in his person. “What are you talking about?” She asked in an anxious tone. “It is true I crushed your husband but what you don’t know is that, before he escaped through death, I promised him I was going to take over everything that belonged to him...” He enlightened her.

“I know I look like a ghost from her nightmares. I know I have no right to suddenly appear. But Elena didn’t imagine me—I was real. I am real.” Holden’s lips twisted. “Real fathers don’t abandon their children. Especially not in a burning building.” Lucian visibly flinched. And Elena felt something twist in her own chest. Because the accusation wasn’t entirely wrong. Lucian inhaled shakily. “I didn’t abandon her.” “Then where were you when she woke up alone?” Holden shot back. “Where were you when she cried at night, asking for a face she couldn’t remember? Where were you when the Xia family—”

"Your wife? What the fuck?" Jasper snapped and immediately turned towards Lucian. "Yeah, we married each other yesterday," Lucian proudly boasted. As Lucian did that, Nina tried to hide herself behind Jasper due to fear and both the brothers noticed that. Lucian immediately held Nina's hands and pulled her to face him. She hissed in pain as his grip was way too tight. "You woman, what are you doing behind his back? You shouldn't be touching another man now that you are my wife. But you, you spent the entire night in another man's room, what kind of woman you are?" Lucian spat.

Lucian calling him to ask such a foolish question only added fuel to the fire. "I don't have a surveillance camera planted in your home. How would I know whether you were a good man to her?" "We've been friends for years. Haven't I brought her to dine with us when we hang out?" Lucian's civil approach to the matter awakened a sliver of pity in Cade. "Why worry about the past? Whether or not you were a good man, she's now your wife. Just be a good husband to her from now on." Lucian's first marriage was filled with so much turmoil that it took a remarriage to fix things. As his friend, Cade couldn't, in good conscience, say Lucian was a good man.

“You were my best friend. You lied to Lucian about the medical report. You called me an adulteress.” “So what?” Lydia said, shrugging dismissively. “You’re not worthy of Lucian. You’re just a pathetic, useless housewife. So what if I lied. It doesn’t matter. Lucian was never going to let you give birth, his child or not. It’s my child he wants. Because it’s me he wants. Haven’t you figured that out yet?” Her tone was so complacent, so matter-of-fact, it caught me off guard. Was Lydia right? Was it always Lucian’s intention to kick me to the curb? He’d forced me to have an abortion without even verifying whether the baby was his or not. Sitting there, in that hospital bed, I saw the full exte
