The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 1330

When Roxanne woke up the next morning, the kids were huddled together in a tangle of limbs, hugging each other as they slept soundly. She had no idea how they ended up like that, but they showed no signs of waking up.

Warmth spread in Roxanne’s chest as she watched them sleep like babies.

Essie, my baby girl. I’m not dreaming. My daughter is really back!

Roxanne planted a kiss on each of their foreheads before heading downstairs to prepare breakfast for them.

As her tumultuous emotions began to calm, she belatedly recalled something important.

Estella was born with Archie and Benny, but why was she sent to Lucian? Yet I was completely clueless about the whole incident. Also, it was evident from Lucian and Sonya’s attitudes that they didn’t know what happened either.

The possible reason behind it sent chills down Roxanne’s spine.

Who could’ve done such a thing? What was that person’s motive for doing so?

In the meantime, chaos erupted all over Horington when the news was revealed.

As one of the prestigious families in Horington, the Pearson family was prominent and capable. Coupled with the marriage contract they shared with the Farwell family, their status in society had always been stable.

However, the shares of one of the Pearson family’s branch companies’ plummeted overnight. Numerous comments and discussions regarding the incident flooded the internet.

One netizen commented: I heard the Pearson family has offended the Farwell family. This is the consequence of their action.

Another refuted: No way! The Farwell family and the Pearson family have a marriage contract with each other. They’re basically one big family. Why would the Farwell family go up against the Pearson family?

One supplemented: You guys haven’t heard about it? I heard through the grapevine that the Farwell family has long since planned to annul the marriage, and the Pearson family has been begging them not to.

That comment attracted more attention from the public.

Meanwhile, Archie and Benny had just woken up in Roxanne’s place.

Archie habitually glimpsed at the stock market news to check the latest rise and fall of shares. As he flipped through the articles, he accidentally noticed the plummeting of shares of a Pearson family-affiliated corporation.
