The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 1758

Chapter 1758 Rejected Gift

In one day, the Damaris family went from being a prestigious family in medicine to being despised by the general populace.

The matter had come to an end.

Once they got off the ferry, Lucian slowly started the car and turned to look at the person beside him. “Where would you like to go?”

After lying in the hospital for many days, the young woman probably wanted to wander around and clear her mind.

Roxanne pondered for a moment before muttering, “I want to visit Old Mr. Lomax.”

Upon hearing this, Lucian furrowed his brows. "Old Mr. Lomax is staying at a hotel near the hospital and won't be leaving anytime soon. We can go another day.”

Roxanne shook her head and responded, “I was able to wake up thanks to Old Mr. Lomax's help. Besides, there's nowhere else I want to go right now. Let's go see him first.”

After seeing her determination, the man agreed and started the car. They proceeded to make their way to the hotel.

During the ride, Roxanne leaned against the window with a hint of sorrow and exhaustion on her face.

First, she had been poisoned. Then, she witnessed how vicious Jack was. After the past few days, she felt mentally and physically exhausted.

Lucian's heart ached when he noticed her state. He slowed down the car and remained silent, letting her rest.

Even after arriving at the hotel, Roxanne's mood hadn't improved much. However, she tried to lighten her expression as she went to the top floor with Lucian.

Knowing that Peregrine preferred peace and quiet, Lucian had booked a secluded room for him.

When they arrived, the old man was looking out the window, admiring the scenery.

For years, Peregrine had stayed in a secluded town, so it had been a while since he saw the outside world.
