The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 1517

Chapter 1517

It was past eight in the evening when Roxanne arrived home.

When she entered, she saw the three children sitting on the couch, tuning to the financial news channel. Lucian was sitting cross- legged beside them.

The four of them were focused on the television.

"You're back?”

Lucian was the first to get up when he heard the sound at the door. “There's food on the table. I just heated it. You should change and come down for dinner.”

Only then did the three children shift their focus and run toward her with round bellies. “Mommy, the food that Daddy ordered is delicious!”

Roxanne looked amused when she saw how full they were from eating before she shifted her gaze to the CEO before her who seemed to be asking for credit.

"What did you—”

“I didn't want to make you worry. You should know I can take good care of them.”

Roxanne was taken aback. She looked at how serious Lucian was and felt her heart skip a beat. “I know. That's why I asked you to look after them.”

The three children stared at their parents and slowly backed away in understanding to minimize their presence.

Roxanne noticed the change in the atmosphere and quickly regained her composure. She lowered her head and walked past Lucian.

Lucian did not stop her either.

Roxanne was tired after having dinner. She suggested Lucian take the children home with him.

“It's getting late. You should bring them to the manor.”

Hearing that, the three children stared at them in confusion.
