Jonathan held his forehead in exasperation.
Is he seriously thinking of helping out at the nursing home tomorrow?
The man let out a long sigh in his heart before replying patiently, “From what you’re telling me, Roxanne and Jack are staying in the same hotel now. Aren’t you worried at all? You know Jack has ulterior motives toward Roxanne…”
The crease between Lucian’s brows grew deeper.
He looked up at Roxanne’s room and saw that the lights had already been turned on.
Recalling Jonathan’s words, Lucian could no longer sit still. Immediately, he opened the door and got out of the car.
Jonathan was still blabbering nonstop over the phone.
After heading into the hotel, Lucian made a reservation for the room next to Roxanne’s.
It was already almost ten at night when Roxanne entered her room.
She hesitated for a few seconds when she walked past Jack’s room but decided not to disturb him and proceeded straight to her own room.
After a long day, Roxanne was drained. The first thing she did was take a shower.
When she emerged from the bathroom, she noticed that her phone was ringing.
She cast a glance at the screen and saw Lucian’s name flashing on the caller ID.
Assuming that he was calling to tell her he had reached back safely, Roxanne answered the phone while drying her hair. “Are you back already?”
She heard a beeping sound on the other end of the line, which sounded like someone opening a door using a key card.
“I am. I just found out that the branch office had booked the same hotel for me. If I had known earlier, we could have walked together. Where’s your room?” he asked with a straight face.
A look of surprise and confusion flashed across Roxanne’s face when she heard that.
She could not help but find it strange that the branch office did not inform Lucian of the arrangement earlier.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Abandoned Wife (Lucian)
GREAT! Chapter 1970 was actually a repeat of Chapter 1770! And the same up to 1976! Now Ive missed 6 chapters and no idea what is happening! Plus all those sections that are badly typed then typed again and then again correctly……what a waste of “chapters”....
Wish there was more to the story, like how the triplets end up and if the twins are as smart as their older siblings. Beautiful story 😊...
Very best book out there, full of surprises and true love. Recommend to all....
How did she leave a child behind with her husband that was same age as her two boys. This makes no sense....
