The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 1259

“Lucian, what are you talking about—” Of course, Aubree would never admit to what she did, so she had no choice but to continue playing coy.

However, Lucian did not let her finish her sentence. “We’re both at fault for letting our joke of an engagement drag on for six years. Now, it’s time to end it! After you get discharged, I’ll announce the end of the relationship between our families. I’m only doing this for Old Mr. Pearson’s sake, so play along if you know what’s good for you!”

We’re calling it off? Aubree widened her eyes in shock and took quite a while before regaining her senses. It took me six years to finally get Lucian to give me another chance. I can’t believe my dream shattered when I’m this close to realizing it! How can he be so cruel to me? No! I won’t allow this to happen! I’ve worked so hard for six years, so there’s no way I’m going to let him get his way!

Ignoring the injury on her arm, Aubree gritted her teeth and reached out to grab the hem of Lucian’s shirt. Her arm trembled uncontrollably in pain as she begged, “Lucian, give me another chance. I know I was wrong; I won’t make the same mistake again!”

Lucian simply looked coldly at Aubree as she continued pitifully, “I promise I’ll do whatever you want. You can ask me to do anything! I won’t see Ms. Jarvis! Just please forgive me! I’ve waited so many years for you, Lucian. Does that mean nothing to you?”

“If you really cared about the engagement, you wouldn’t have been foolish enough to cross the line time and again!” stated Lucian impatiently.

Aubree’s eyes turned red as she explained, “I was just… I was just jealous! She went away for six years, but you were still so good to her when she returned. I waited six years for you, yet you couldn’t even spare me a glance—”

Before Aubree could finish her sentence, Lucian coldly shook off the hand clinging to the hem of his shirt.

After crying out in pain, Aubree tried to keep Lucian by her side even though she was already breaking out in a cold sweat.
