Roxanne was getting too drained to move. However, she didn’t want to wait at her spot because her current location was still quite far away from the parking lot, and waiting for Lucian’s was equally tiring.
Hence, she continued to advance slowly with the bags in her hands.
However, it had been a long while since she was in Jadeborough, and there had been many significant changes in the city, especially in the commercial district. The many intersections were also challenging to identify.
After she passed through an intersection, she couldn’t recall where the parking lot was.
She hesitated briefly before sitting on a bench at the side of the road and putting the bags down. It’s hard to say if I’ll find the parking lot if I keep going. Even worse, Lucian may not be able to locate me…
After a while, she received a call from Lucian.
Promptly, Roxanne picked up the phone.
“Where are you?” He sounded tense.
She guiltily surveyed her surrounding and answered, “In front of a Starbucks.”
Then, fearing he couldn’t find her, she added, “I only passed by an intersection. It should be easy for you to find me. “
“Got it. Stay where you are. I’ll be right there.” Lucian furrowed his eyebrows resignedly. I asked her to stay because I was worried she’d grow tired and lose her way. It’s very easy for someone unfamiliar with the intersections in the commercial district to get lost. I didn’t expect she would disobey me. Thank goodness I know where the Starbucks is.
Soon, he spotted Roxanne sitting on a bench, looking like a child who felt guilty for losing the way after running around.
The guilty expression on her countenance intensified when she saw him. Upon rubbing her nose, she stood and picked up the bags.
“Didn’t I ask you to stay there?” Lucian promptly lent a helping hand.
Roxanne reflexively defended herself, “I thought I could walk further, but…”
As she spoke, she saw him grabbing half of the bags on the ground.
Lucian stopped when one of his hands was full and watched Roxanne take the rest with one hand as well.

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....
