The next day, Lucian accompanied Roxanne to the cemetery where she paid respects to her mother.
As it suddenly began to drizzle, the cemetery was quickly covered in mist.
With an umbrella in his hand, Lucian made sure Roxanne was fully covered even if it meant that half of his body would get wet.
Roxanne looked at the tombstone where a picture of her mother was embedded. It captured the first time she smiled vibrantly ever since she got seriously sick.
She could still remember how she rushed back home from school back then and saw how neatly her mother was dressed when she returned from a photography studio.
The beaming expression and the reluctance in her mother's eyes filled Roxanne with a sense of dread.
True enough, her mother met her untimely end not long after that.
Back then, Roxanne felt as if her world had collapsed. Her mind drew a blank, as the pillar of support in her life was now gone.
She couldn't even recall how many days she went without food and water. In the end, she held a simple funeral for her together with Grant in a detached state of mind.
Ever since the tragedy, Roxanne kept all her emotions to herself.
Regardless of the problems she faced in life, she would quietly hide away and let her wounds heal by themselves.
She also swore that she would never forgive Grant for his unconscionable deeds.
Soon after her mother's death, Grant married Winnie and brought along Yosef and Yuliana into her life.
That was when all her troubles started.
Back then, Lucian wasn't aware that he was the beacon of light in the darkness that engulfed Roxanne's life. He had become the very reason she continued to live on.
After all, she was nothing but a lovestruck lass. Therefore, when coincidence somehow delivered her to the Farwell family where she married Lucian, she couldn't be any happier.

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 😊...
