The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 447

Chapter 447

Roxanne knew absolutely nothing about the two men‘s thoughts.

During the drive to the restaurant, she smilingly asked Larry, “Why did you suddenly decide to ask me out for lunch today? And did you just return from Summerbank?”

Larry nodded nonchalantly. “I just returned last night. I only boarded the flight after secing Mr. Lynch off. It was already midnight by the time I landed.”

Recalling the time he sent her the message, Roxanne surmised that he had texted her mere moments after disembarking the plane.

I wonder what important matter he has to tell me.

“Mr. Lynch told me to convey his regards to you and asked whether the issue at the research institute has been resolved,” Larry stated.

The smile on Roxanne‘s face widened when she heard that Gerald remembered her. “It‘s all thanks to you and Mr. Lynch that night. Those medicinal herb suppliers were initially hesitant, but they respected Mr. Lynch, so they readily agreed after he said a few words.”

Larry inclined his head a fraction. “I‘m glad to hear that the matter has been resolved. I‘m just worried that Mrs. Farwell will make things difficult for you again in the future.”

Throughout it all, he had found things very much unfair on her behalf.

He could somewhat guess the reason Sonya was targeting Roxanne, reckoning that she resented the latter for leaving without a word back then and getting so familiar with Lucian at present.

In his opinion, however, Roxanne was the victim. Furthermore, she wasn‘t the one who wanted to have so much contact with the man right then.

Rather than wasting her time on Roxanne, he felt that Sonya would be better served

to keep a closer eye on Lucian.

It‘s particularly true at present when I‘ve got a rare chance to attend a medical consultation with the Damaris family. Later, I still want to compete for the opportunity to collaborate with them. If I were to lose the chance because of her interference, I really wouldn‘t know what I‘d do in retaliation.
