The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 2023

Chapter 2023 Making Arrangements

Jonathan and Madilyn were completely clueless about Lucian's harsh punishments against Norton.

The sun was already setting. A Rolls-Royce was on the road, heading to Horington from Xandenia.

More specifically, Jonathan had slowed down the car after they had passed the outskirts of the city to enjoy the beautiful and unique scenery.

“Where do you get this car, Jonathan? Doesn't this car belong to the person in charge of the hotel?” Lorraine was overjoyed to see how much in love Madilyn and Jonathan were.

Jonathan shook his head in response. “Mdm. Xander, this car doesn't belong to the person in charge. The car is specially provided by the company for the hotel to welcome distinguished guests. Thus, I've requested to borrow it for a few days. Once we arrive at Horington, I'll ask someone to return the car!”

“I see. Well, that's splendid! This car can make Mildred know her place in an instant! I assume the car is extremely expensive!” Lorraine had never sat in a Rolls-Royce before, even though Norton had one in the past. Despite that, Lorraine had always refused to sit in it. After all, she knew the car was Mildred's dowry.

“Mom, this car is, in fact, expensive. The price can go up to a few million. However, it wouldn't be difficult for Jonathan to buy one if he wanted to, but there's no need for that at the moment.” Madilyn sighed inwardly. It looks like Mom knows nothing about the assets of the Queen family.

Jonathan merely smiled as he explained, "Mdm. Xander, you can find cars like this in my house too. In fact, some of them cost more than the one I'm driving now! I've driven them when I was younger, but I don't drive as much anymore. If you like this car, I can assign a driver to drive the one at home and make it your personal transport!”

Jonathan's words made Lorraine beam in excitement. She was feeling utterly spoiled.

Meanwhile, Madilyn looked at Jonathan from the corner of her eyes, impressed by his tactics to win his future mother-in-law over. Warmth filled her heart as she smiled.

The car came to a stop at a rest area. Stepping out of the car, Jonathan went in search of some food and warm water for the mother-daughter pair to have on the road. Seeing that, both Lorraine and Madilyn were touched by his thoughtfulness.

When Jonathan returned to the car, Lorraine began discussing the matters of marriage. She wanted to know if the Queen family had any other requests from her end.

“Mom, don't you think you're thinking too far ahead? Jonathan and I have just started dating a few days ago. We just want to go dating and have fun now!” Madilyn rolled her eyes at Lorraine as a blush crept up her face.
