As both of them continued to chat, Roxanne gave Madilyn some encouragement upon sensing her lack of confidence.
Nevertheless, Madilyn responded with a wry smile before changing the topic to Roxanne's wedding.
In reality, Madilyn wasn't afraid of Coralie's family background but was instead wary of the latter's vibrant demeanor and the confidence she exuded that stemmed from her prominent identity.
Madilyn, comparatively, had to face life's cruel realities since young as an illegitimate child whose mother was abandoned by her father.
Furthermore, she could sense that Coralie's vigor was exactly what Jonathan needed to cure his depression.
Perhaps she's a lot more suited to him. That thought flashed through her mind unbidden.
Not wanting Roxanne to worry, Madilyn kept such thoughts to herself and focused on discussing the wedding preparations. She even told Roxanne that she would meticulously choose a wonderful gift for the latter.
When Roxanne asked her what it would be, she replied that she had yet to make a decision, eliciting an eye roll from the former.
It wasn't until darkness began to fall that both of them went their separate ways.
Upon returning to the mansion, Roxanne was greeted by the sight of everyone busying themselves in the living room.
As the star of the wedding, Roxanne felt embarrassed for not having to do much.
“Mommy, you had a long day. Here, have a glass of water!” The adorable and attentive Estella was always the first to welcome her mother home.
Archie and Benny were just as enthusiastic as they grabbed one of Roxanne's hands each, showering her with attention.
“What's going on? What do you want from me this time? Spit it out.”

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....
