The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 289

Chapter 289 I Will Take You There

Lucian was resolute. Aubree had no choice but to leave with her head hung low.

Elias and Sonya stayed back for a while to spend time with Estella.

No matter how hard they tried, Estella remained disinterested. The little girl refused to write any words even though Sonya gave her a pen and paper. She would only nod or shake her head at any questions they posed.

Lucian rejected her offer outright. “No, thanks.”

After what happened last night, he refused to let Estella go anywhere.

After they left, Lucian redressed Estella’s wound and led her upstairs so she could go to bed.

Estella stared at her wound silently and showed no response to his words.

Her action tugged at Lucian’s heartstrings. “Do you want to give the medicine to Ms. Jarvis?”
