The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 1686

Chapter 1686 A Real Marriage

Looking at Lucian's and Elektra's retreating backs, Jack felt another wave of vexation wash over him.

He furrowed his brows and muttered to himself, “Childhood sweethearts? The Lane family? Isn't that too much of a coincidence?”

Regarding Lucian's love for Roxanne, Jack was not at all doubtful about it. After all, he figured that Lucian would not have agreed to his request if that was not the case.

Jack was particularly suspicious about that.

Kevin recalled his investigation findings and said cautiously, “I didn't discover any reaction from the Lanes to the marriage news while I was investigating. It's almost as if they didn't know about the marriage...”
