The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 730

Chapter 730 What Makes You Say That

As the hubbub got closer, Lucian soon entered Roxanne’s field of vision, spotting a stern expression. Roxanne stared at the man before her in astonishment. “Why are you here?”

His formal outfit suggested that he was just in a meeting, yet his tie appeared loose as though it had been tugged slightly. Upon hearing her query, Lucian’s expression turned icy. “If you can come, why can’t I?”

After saying that, he shot her a look while suppressing his anger before turning to face the reporters behind him, his cold eyes swept across their faces. “If you have any questions, I can answer on her behalf.”

The crowd shuddered at his gaze, and everyone turned to look at one another. No one dared to say a word for some time. Given Lucian’s status, if they said something wrong that day, they might lose their jobs.

No one wanted to face that kind of repercussion. Lucian frowned and grabbed the wrist of the woman behind him before glancing at the crowd in front of him. “If there are no questions, I’m taking her away.”

Without waiting for a reaction, he held Roxanne’s hand and pulled her out of the crowd. The previously clamoring crowd fell silent as the two passed by and was even compelled by Lucian’s powerful aura to make way for them.

Coming out of the crowd, Roxanne had not had time to breathe a sigh of relief when she looked at the person in front of her, and her anxiety only increased further.

“Get in.” Lucian brought her all the way to his car and said in a terrifyingly chilly voice as he opened the passenger door. Roxanne pursed her lips slightly but stood still. “I drove here, so I can just drive myself back in a bit.”

Although flustered, she still kept her composure. The rumors about Jack and me haven’t been clarified and will only become more outrageous if I get into Lucian’s car in front of those reporters.

Her rejection further enraged Lucian. Earlier that day, as soon as he came out of the conference room, he was stopped by Cayden, who stammered out the news about Roxanne and Jack to him.
