The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 685

Chapter 685

On the other end, Lucian and Aubree left the Pearson residence together.

As Aubree sat in the passenger seat, she did not stop putting on an elaborate show of sobbing and wiping her tears away in hopes of getting Lucian’s attention.

While Lucian did notice the weeping woman next to him, he had no intention of saying anything.

After all, he already knew the reason why Aubree fought with Samuel. If he were to say anything more, he was worried about making Aubree cry harder.

It wasn’t long before Aubree noticed that all her weeping and sobbing had no effect on Lucian, who did not even have any kind words to offer to her. She gradually calmed down and stopped sobbing, turning away to look out the window in disappointment.

Upon noticing the scenery outside, Aubree’s expression changed abruptly. Her voice still thick from crying, she turned around and asked, “Lucian, it’s already so late. Aren’t we going back home?”

Lucian merely sat there impassively as he replied, “I’ve booked you a room for two nights.”

He was implying that he had no intention of bringing her back to the Farwell residence at all.

Having heard this, Aubree suddenly felt as though a bucket of cold water had been dumped over her. Determined to stand up for herself, she queried, “Will I be staying there alone?”

Lucian merely raised a brow and grunted in response.

According to Gina, Aubree only needed to stay away for a brief period of time. Him arranging a hotel stay for her was effectively a nod to the Pearson family’s kindness to him in days past.

At his affirmation, Aubree’s expression froze. She was unable to say anything for a while.

When she left the Pearson residence earlier, she and her parents had thought that things were going according to plan.

Alas, she had made an error. While Lucian had agreed to take her away, he never promised to bring her to the Farwell residence. She did not expect him to have booked a hotel room for her, though.

What on earth is this? Am I somehow unable to book a hotel room for myself if I wanted?
