The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 1378

Chapter 1378

Lucian was about to take a shower and get some rest when he heard a knock from the room next to his.

After that, he could hear Jack’s voice. “Have you arrived, Ms. Jarvis?”

Jack had assumed that Roxanne had arrived as he heard the sound of people talking in the corridor above.

Roxanne had just finished showering and was only wearing a robe, so she replied without opening the door, “Yeah, I just got here. I didn’t tell you because I thought you were asleep.”

Jack nodded and asked, “Have you taken your dinner yet? If you haven’t, how about we go outside and grab a bite? We could also discuss the condition of the elderly people while we’re at it.”

Lucian’s face clouded over the moment he heard that.

Knowing Roxanne, there’s no way she’ll be able to say no if he mentions those elderly people!

Roxanne really wanted to speak to Jack face-to-face, but it would be incredibly inconvenient to do so in a robe with her hair still dripping wet.

After hesitating for a bit, Roxanne decided to turn him down. “We’ll discuss this in the car tomorrow. It’s a little late now.”

Jack knew better than to pressure her any further. “All right, then. Rest well. We’ll head out earlier tomorrow morning.”

“Okay!” Roxanne replied with a smile.

The look in Jack’s eyes was gloomy as he stared at her door, which was tightly shut.

All he knew was that Roxanne came here by car, but he didn’t know who she came with.

They rushed over even though it’s so late at night…

Roxanne waited until she heard his footsteps fade into the distance before blow-drying her hair.
