The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 1068

Chapter 1068 Overthinking

“Yes,” Roxanne blurted out. That answer brought a smile to Estella’s face again. However, she still found the sight of the flowers to be an eyesore.

The boys also detested the flower, so they put it in a corner. “This is taking up space. Let’s put it here first!” Roxanne was aware of her sons’ intentions, but she didn’t comment on it. Suddenly, the doorbell rang again.

The brothers tensed up as they subconsciously protected Estella behind them. If Mr. Damaris was the one who pressed the doorbell earlier, then this must be Mr. Farwell! We still haven’t played hide and seek with Essie yet!

Roxanne thought the same, but despite her unwillingness to let Estella leave, she still opened the door. When she saw the person at the door, she was puzzled. “Mr. Damaris? Why are you back here? Is there anything else?”

Jack smiled helplessly. “I may need to stay at your place for a while because someone punctured my tire with a nail. It went flat after I drove for a while.”

As he spoke, he glanced at the children somewhat intentionally.

Without hesitation, Roxanne let him in.

Jack wondered out loud, “It’s strange. The tire was fine when I came by in the morning. I don’t know when it was punctured by a nail.”

Upon detecting his stare, the boys looked back at him confidently. Why is he looking at us? We didn’t do anything! Is he trying to sow discord between Mommy and us?

A second later, Jack looked away.

Standing behind the boys, Estella hid her hands behind her back guiltily and played with her fingers.

“What are you going to do now, Mr. Damaris? How about I send you back home?” Roxanne suggested.

“No need. I’ve already contacted the towing company. The driver will pick me up once they arrive, so I’ll be staying here until then.”
