The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 1372

Roxanne looked away from Lucian and tried to explain to the owner.

The owner flatly rejected her explanation, saying, “It’s impossible. I saw the two of you holding hands when you walked in. To be honest, you both are quite attractive. I’ve noticed the two of you since you arrived on our street!” To prove himself, the owner tapped Roxanne’s suitcase. “This belongs to you, right? I saw this man taking it from you! He acted as though he had done this so many times.”

He then proceeded to reveal their interaction along the way.

The customers in the restaurant couldn’t help but sneak glances at Roxanne and Lucian as they entered.

The owner’s words only added to their curiosity, causing them to stare at the couple openly.

Some got curious and asked, “Are you guys celebrities here to film something?”

Knowing she couldn’t persuade the owner to think otherwise, Roxanne explained in exasperation, “We’re not celebrities. We were passing by, and our car broke down.”

The owner finally stopped talking.

Relieved, Roxanne quickly ordered, “I’ll have squid ink pasta and a salad, please.”

She then glanced at Lucian, afraid he couldn’t accept these dishes.

Lucian turned to the owner. “I’ll have the same.”

The owner nodded and left to prepare their food.

Lucian swept his gaze across the crowd, and they looked away guiltily.

“They don’t have any ill intentions. Don’t behave like this,” Roxanne advised helplessly.
