The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 1457

Elias frowned, and when he spoke, his voice was tinged with a hint of exasperation.

“I’ve long since told you to let Lucian make the decisions himself when it comes to his marriage. Everyone is free to live their own lives. Why must we meddle so much?”

Disapproval was written all over Sonya’s face. “How could I possibly allow that? Is Lucian’s marriage his business alone? Never mind if he wants to marry some other woman, but why must it be that woman?”

Why must it be Roxanne? Worse still, she comes with two little bastards!

Seeing that she was still dissatisfied with Roxanne, Elias patiently cajoled, “No matter who he wants to be with, that’s his business. He matured into an adult ages ago. We can’t interfere in everything.”

But still, Sonya remained obstinate and griped, “If he had finalized his marriage with Aubree earlier, all this wouldn’t have happened.”

After saying that, she shot the man beside her a chagrined look. “You’re no better. It’s because you allowed him free rein in everything that he delayed the marriage until now.”

“Reality has proven that Aubree is indeed unsuited to be the mistress of the Farwell family.”

On the contrary, Elias felt that Lucian hadn’t done anything wrong.

“Aubree only did something wrong out of her anxiety to get engaged with Lucian. If he had settled down with her earlier, she wouldn’t have done all those foolish things,” Sonya riposted.

Upon hearing that, Elias stared at her in vexation, his gaze probing.

Feeling a tad guilty from the way he was scrutinizing her, Sonya muttered, “I’m not saying she was right in doing all that. I merely feel that she’s sincere in her feelings toward Lucian.”

As she finished saying that, the wretched state of the Pearson family at present flashed across her mind. Melancholic, she heaved a sigh. “Ultimately, the Pearson family has been friends with us for many years, but they’ve now been reduced to a miserable existence by the Farwell family. It makes it appear as though we’re too ruthless.”
