The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 197

Chapter 197

That afternoon, Aubree found her employees looking strangely at her when she was doing the rounds at the office.

One of the female employees who are closer to her came over and teased, “Ms. Pearson. Mr. Farwell is so nice to you that we‘re all green with envy!”

Aubree was inexorably stunned to hear that. In the next instant, she forced a casual smile and inquired airily, “Really? How could you tell?”

At the employee‘s question, she fibbed, “Oh, perhaps I ate something bad last night. I‘m fine now. Go back to work.”

The female employee uttered a few more platitudes in feigned concern before going back to her workstation.

Aubree returned to her office with a grim expression on her face. She immediately logged on to Twitter and searched for news related to Lucian.

As soon as she entered his name, a news report popped out. It read: Mr. Farwell accompanies his fiancée to the hospital, proving their relationship intimate.

The news report read: Last night, Mr. Farwell personally drove his fiancée to the hospital and carried her in a bridal carry the entire way. What an attentive boyfriend! At eight o‘clock in the morning today, the two of them got into Mr. Farwell‘s car, accompanied by Mr. Farwell‘s
