The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 1450

Meanwhile, Roxanne and her family were having a wonderful time in Miralaea.

The boys clung to Lucian for practically their entire stay, but he didn’t mind. In fact, he brought them to experience plenty of exciting activities.

As for Estella, Roxanne and Madilyn brought her along while they took plenty of pictures of the ocean view. They even helped her dress up like a cute mermaid.

They had a lot of fun during that week of vacation.

While the children wanted to stay for a couple more days, Roxanne had to return home for work.

Madilyn and Lucian couldn’t stay for long as well.

Therefore, they all returned to their country when the week was up.

After a week, the public had forgotten all about Farwell Group’s incident, and Roxanne was free of the reporters.

However, Lucian was still worried about his family, so he ordered a few bodyguards to watch over her and the children in secret.

The morning after they returned to the country, Roxanne sent the children to the kindergarten before heading to the research institute. I wonder how much the project has progressed during my week of absence.

Just as she stepped into her office, Linda approached her. “Dr. Jarvis.”

Roxanne nodded. “Did the research institute face any troubles over the past week?”

She had been under Madilyn and Lucian’s surveillance during the past week, so she had minimal opportunities to contact the research institute. Her concern that the reporters would visit the research institute and negatively affect the researchers’ work never left her mind.

If the reporters did that, she’d have no idea how to face the employees because she ran away after causing such a big mess and left the staff to fend for themselves.

Still, she called him out of courtesy.

The phone rang for a while before Jack answered the call.

“I didn’t expect you to have the time to call me, Ms. Jarvis, since you’re such a busy woman.” Mockery was obvious in his tone.

It was the first time she heard him use that tone, so she was stunned for a few seconds before she apologized, “I’m sorry. I wasn’t in the country during the past week. Linda just told me you visited the research institute to meet me. Is there a problem with the project?”

The mockery didn’t subside from his tone as he spoke again. “Is that so? I wonder what you were doing overseas last week.”

Of course, he knew why she was in another country and that she had gone there with Lucian.
