The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 1027

Chapter 1027 She Has Given Up On You

The look on Lucian’s face grew solemn the moment he heard that. How does Roxanne feel about me? I’ve never thought about that before…

According to her, she has always treated me like a complete stranger. However, I can tell from her attitude toward me that she sees me as more than a stranger. Could it be that she has started to develop feelings for me after my attempts at wooing her?

Lucian let out a wry chuckle at the irony of that thought. I had assumed Roxanne would feel touched by my efforts, but her response suggested otherwise. In fact, she has been acting as though my actions are causing her a lot of trouble. She probably wished I would just leave her alone, huh?

Jonathan’s heart sank as well when he saw Lucian’s expression grow increasingly cold. After a few minutes of awkward silence, he said, “It’s possible that Dr. Jarvis has completely given up on you.”

Even after racking his brain, Jonathan could not see any issues with his methods. He figured the problem must’ve been with Roxanne’s feelings instead. Jonathan could clearly feel the tension rising in the office, but he decided to continue with his analysis anyway.

“If I were to put myself in her shoes, I wouldn’t be able to forgive you for what happened six years ago either. Dr. Jarvis had been living overseas for the past six years, so why did she return all of a sudden? I believe it’s because she has let go of what happened in the past.”

Now that Jonathan has mentioned it, Roxanne did claim that we’re just strangers when she first returned to the country…

As though Lucian’s icy-cold aura had affected the air around him, Jonathan felt a shiver down his spine when he was done explaining his thoughts.

He quickly corrected himself by saying, “T-This isn’t necessarily a bad thing, though! If Dr. Jarvis has completely given up on you, then the process to win her back will be a lot simpler!”
