The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 1503

Chapter 1503

Sonya fixed Roxanne with a cold-eyed stare, clearly suspecting that Lucian had caused a commotion because of her.

Lucian stepped between his mother and Roxanne protectively, then led the latter downstairs and made her sit in the armchair while he stood beside her.

“I wouldn't have bothered the police at such a late hour, but I caught a woman named Ophelia Smith trying to pour lubricant over the brakes on Roxanne's car this afternoon. Had I not discovered what she was doing, I'm afraid Roxanne and the children could be dead by now.”

Sonya's expression changed. “What? Didn't that person know Estella would be riding in that car too?”

Lucian's tone turned grave as he replied, “She knew, of course. After all, the mastermind behind it all is Aubree.”

“What did you say?” Sonya was so enraged that she lost her balance and staggered backward into Elias.

He immediately helped her to the couch, then asked, “What's going on? How can you be sure that it was Aubree's doing? Hasn't she learned her lesson after her family's fall from grace?”

Lucian nodded indifferently. “I'm also curious why she's still so incorrigible after her family's downfall and keeps pestering Roxanne and the children.”

His response confirmed to his parents that Aubree had orchestrated the whole thing.

Nodding, Elias said, “If that's the case, she deserves to be arrested. In fact, she should've been arrested after what happened previously.”
