The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 1370

Lucian tapped on the steering wheel and said matter-of-factly, “I’ll drive the car to the service center. It shouldn’t take long.”

Roxanne glanced around them.

They were in a remote area with no visible signs of a rest area or any people around.

In fact, there weren’t any buildings in sight, let alone any service centers.

“Don’t you have any spare tires in the car?” Roxanne asked hopefully.

Lucian furrowed his brows and replied, “I’ve just used it a while ago and forgot to replace it.”

Feeling helpless, Roxanne glanced around at the deserted environment they were in.

If their car were to break down here, no one would discover their whereabouts.

Roxanne felt slightly anxious.

“I wouldn’t suggest taking that chance,” she warned. “We’re still a great distance from the service center, and I doubt the tire will hold up for much longer. Why don’t you give the service center a call and have them come to us? We can stay put until they arrive.”

There were two of them, so they could look after each other.

Lucian glanced at his watch. “Do you want to stay here with me? Aren’t you in a hurry? I think the elderly people at the nursing home need you to be there as soon as possible.”

A hint of hesitation flashed across Roxanne’s eyes when she heard him mention the sick, elderly people.

However, she quickly made up her mind. “It’s fine. Mr. Damaris and the other doctors will be there, so they’ll be fine.”

Lucian nodded and pulled his phone out to call the service center.

They waited patiently in the car for the tow truck to show up and tow the vehicle away.

Roxanne took out her phone and texted Jack to inform him that she would most probably be late.

As they were too far away from the town, the vehicle from the service center only showed up hours later.

Lucian greeted the person and led Roxanne to the vehicle ahead so they could be driven to the nearest town.
