Leaving The Country After Divorce novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 1895

Chapter 1895 Freedom Even Death Cannot Grant

“Jump then, Elektra! That is if you think doing so can truly grant you freedom.”

Roxanne walked onto the rooftop. She felt much more at ease at the sight of her husband sitting calmly aside.

She believed Elektra's attempt at seeking death to gain sympathy would not work on her husband.

Seeing that Roxanne had arrived, Elektra guiltily avoided meeting the former's gaze.

She'd assumed Roxanne would try convincing her not to end her own life. However, to her surprise, Roxanne's eyes were filled with nothing but icy contempt.

Elektra couldn't come up with a response to Roxanne's statement.

She's right. I did have a chance to redeem myself. Unfortunately, I was possessed by the devil in me and lost my rationality.

“Elektra, I have no idea why you summoned me here. You could have done away with your life privately without causing Lucian and me any more stress. Am I right?” asked Roxanne.

She's seeking death now that everything is exposed. What a joke! I don't believe whatever guilt or regret she has.

The last thing Roxanne wanted was for Lucian to be guilt-tripped by Elektra into thinking that he'd been the cause of her death.

“Roxanne, I—”
