The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 483

Chapter 483

There was still some work to be done, so Jack stayed back and bade the two of them farewell.

Both Larry and Roxanne left the orphanage.

Larry looked at her and smiled. “So, what do you think of the medical consultation today? Judging from Mr. Damaris’ reaction, you should have attained your objective.”

It was only then realization dawned on Roxanne.

She had placed all her focus on the children and forgot she was there to gain the support of the Damaris family.

To her, the children were more important.

As it turned out, she had helped the children and won Jack over at the same time.

His behavior earlier on was proof enough of her success.

Roxanne’s eyes sparkled with excitement when she realized that. She turned and thanked Larry, “Thank you for helping me today, Larry.”

Larry raised his brows and said, “I don’t recall helping you with anything at all.”

Roxanne then started to list the things he had helped her with. “In the morning, you must have told Mr. Damaris lots of good things about me. With you around, I was also not that nervous. Furthermore, when Dr. Hopp made things difficult for me, you stood up for me,”

Seeing the exaggerated manner she was listing the ways he had helped her, Larry stopped her from counting and said, “I only told Mr. Damaris that you were a student of Professor Lambert and nothing else. As for the rest, that wasn’t why Jack noticed your medical skill. There’s no need to thank me.”
