Once Roxanne ended her sentence, she hung up, denying Jonathan a chance to refuse.
Worried that Lucian would be dissatisfied, she explained, “I'm content with the scheme you've devised for me. Lucian. However, if the Queen family bears the losses, it'll be the same as you do it. This whole scheme will be meaningless in that case.”
However, Lucian chuckled. “Your methods are very befitting of a businessman's now!”
“Really? That's great! As long as Jonathan can control the prices, he'll help me save a lot of money. I'd say two hundred million is a fitting price to pay to settle this matter.”
Then Roxanne turned around to boil water and prepare Lucian's favorite coffee.
The fragrance of coffee filled the air.
As she enjoyed the coffee, he carefully observed her expression and said, “Accompany me to the middle school tomorrow, Roxanne. I promised Elektra to visit our old principal since he's sick.”
She grinned. “Since this is a promise between you and Ms. Lane, I don't think it's a good idea for me to join you two. It's fine. I won't get jealous. I know you two are only former classmates.”
The current Roxanne was a lot franker and better at expressing her thoughts. I don't need to be jealous since he has done so much to prove his love for me. Besides, I'm sure he mentioned he would bring me along when he talked to Elektra. In that case, I don't have anything to be upset about.
“That's not exactly why I'm asking you to join me. Did you forget you're the legendary Dr. Jarvis? I want you to come along because you may be able to treat his condition.”
“I see. In that case, I'll gladly join you. When the time comes, pick me up at the research institute. I need to be there very early in the morning tomorrow.”
Elektra was groggily woken up by her alarm clock at nine in the morning.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Abandoned Wife (Lucian)
GREAT! Chapter 1970 was actually a repeat of Chapter 1770! And the same up to 1976! Now Ive missed 6 chapters and no idea what is happening! Plus all those sections that are badly typed then typed again and then again correctly……what a waste of “chapters”....
Wish there was more to the story, like how the triplets end up and if the twins are as smart as their older siblings. Beautiful story 😊...
Very best book out there, full of surprises and true love. Recommend to all....
How did she leave a child behind with her husband that was same age as her two boys. This makes no sense....
