The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 1325

Lucian suppressed his disappointment and said, “You can take your time to think it over. There’s no rush. I’m willing to wait for as long as you need.”

He then glanced at the diamond ring in Roxanne’s hand. “I hope you can keep the ring. Put it on when you’ve thought it through. I’ll know your answer by then.”

Roxanne was touched when she heard that. The guilt she felt grew more intense as she said, “Thank you.”

She found it difficult to tell Lucian the reason she rejected him.

It wasn’t because she did not believe him but because she felt she had wronged Archie and Benny.

Cayden heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Roxanne keep the ring.

Looks like Mr. Farwell still stands a chance, and a good chance at that!

However, Sonya’s expression darkened.

I knew it! She’s leaving my son hanging! I’d never let someone like her become a part of the Farwell family!

Just as Sonya was thinking about how to make Roxanne give up, the latter suddenly walked toward her.

She scrunched her eyebrows and stared at the younger woman unhappily. “Why did you come over here? So what if Lucian proposed to you? I’d never accept you as part of our family!”

Roxanne grinned. “Mrs. Farwell, I’m not expecting you to change your impression of me so easily either. I just hope you would treat Archie and Benny better for Essie’s sake. After all, they’re just children. If there’s anything, please come after me instead.”

Sonya looked at Roxanne suspiciously when she heard the latter’s words.

What does she mean by that? Why do I have to treat those two b*stards better for Essie’s sake? Just because she gave birth to Estella doesn’t mean she can act all high and mighty before me!

Sonya’s expression turned grim when her train of thought ended there. “I don’t need you to tell me what I should or should not do!”

Helplessness flashed past Roxanne’s eyes, but she did not say anything more as she turned around and entered the mansion.

Lucian followed after her.
