The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 1418

Despite her reluctance, Frieda had no choice but to go with the flow.

Her priority then was to win Roxanne’s forgiveness so that she could rejoin Queen Group.

“Okay, then.”

Beaming at Roxanne, she pushed the gift back to her. “I bought this for you. It isn’t expensive. Please accept them as a token of my sincerity.”

Jonathan chimed in, “Yes, Frieda put in a lot of effort to pick this gift. Dr. Jarvis, do accept it. If you don’t, she won’t believe that you’ve forgiven her.”

Roxanne glanced at the present and noticed it was indeed an affordable purse.

It was only then that she extended her arm and took it. “Thanks for the gift. This meal is on me,” she offered, nodding at them.

Jonathan readily accepted her offer.

During lunch, the trio chatted about the collaboration between Queen Group and the research institute.

Knowing that his best friend had set his mind on Roxanne and that they were in a committed relationship, Jonathan decided to deepen his involvement with the research institute.

Naturally, Roxanne was more than delighted to have that happen.

That meal was an enjoyable event for them both, save for Frieda.

Nevertheless, she finally got to return to Queen Group. Her wish had come true.

After lunch, Roxanne returned to the research institute to work while Jonathan brought Frieda to Queen Group. With that, they went their separate ways.

Even though Jonathan had agreed to let his sister rejoin the company, he still had some reservations. As a result, he merely gave her a title instead of entrusting her with critical decision-making responsibilities.
