The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 636

Chapter 636

“If you’re fine with it, can we join you?” Jessica slowly looked away from Roxanne and smiled at the others.

Upon hearing that, the people shared a look with each other. They were already done talking about the main topic, and the woman was close to Jack, so they could not possibly reject her.

The people nodded at Jack to gesture to him that they did not mind. Seeing that, Jack had no choice but to agree to it. “Join us, then.”

He then asked the server to add another seat.

Jessica headed straight for the space that Jack had made. Then, as if finally seeing Roxanne, she glanced at Roxanne with a shocked expression before turning to look at Jack in confusion. “Is this lady with you?”

Jack nodded in affirmation. “This is Dr. Jarvis.”

Roxanne did not know what Jessica was thinking about; she thought Jessica was doubting her abilities like the other doctors, so she smiled and greeted, “You can just call me Dr. Jarvis.”

Jessica gave her a once-over. When she noticed Roxanne’s exceptional appearance and thought about how Roxanne was in the same industry as Jack, as well as how Jack was friendly with her, a hint of animosity flashed past Jessica’s eyes.

Still, she gave Roxanne a faint smile and said, “You’re impressive, Dr. Jarvis. You’re young, but you’re already working with the big shots in the medical world.”

Roxanne pressed her lips together and flashed Jessica a humble smile. “I’m just lucky.”

When the server brought a chair over. Jessica did not budge from between Roxanne’s and Jack’s seats. There was no telling if she was doing that intentionally or not.

Roxanne did not think much about it as she stood up and moved her chair to give space for Jessica.
