The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 1741

Chapter 1741 Paying The Price

Jonathan beamed in response. “She's awake, and she even asked where you were.”

Lucian furrowed his brows. “Did you tell her?”

Jonathan quickly shook his head. “No. I said that something came up and you had to leave for the office.”

Lucian nodded in silence.

“Are you going to see Roxanne now?” Jonathan asked.

Lucian pondered a moment and said, “Maybe later. All that matters is that she's safe now.” He narrowed his eyes. “I want Jack to suffer the consequences of harming her first!”

Jonathan, who had grown up with Lucian, couldn't help but be shocked. He was relieved that he never had to go against Lucian.

Otherwise, a miserable death would be the only fate awaiting him.

Meanwhile, Jack was sent to the hospital by Kevin.

After a calm journey, Jack finally regained his senses.

“What is this place?”

Jack's expression turned grim when he saw the name of the hospital.

Kevin replied in a quivering tone, “It's a hospital owned by Damaris Group. I figured it would be more convenient—”

Before he could finish, Jack chided, “You fool! Are you trying to tell the whole world that I got beaten up? Take me to a different hospital right away!”

Kevin had no choice but to do as he was told.

Upon arriving at the hospital, he hurriedly helped Jack to get treated.

The sting of alcohol on his wound brought Jack's mind to full attention.

“Find out what Roxanne's current condition is right now! Has she really woken up?”

Jack wanted to know the answer as soon as possible, for he refused to believe that someone could neutralize his poison in such a short time.
