The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 785

Chapter 785 Eat With Us

Aubree scrunched up her eyebrows upon hearing Sonya agree to Lucian’s arrangement. She wanted to say something, but the older woman was not looking at her.

“Sit down and eat with us,” Sonya said to Lucian. Aubree’s eyes sparkled when she heard that. She thought Sonya would use the opportunity to speak good things about her.

Holding that thought, she looked at Lucian with anticipation. “You’ve been busy for the whole morning, Lucian. I bet you’re tired. Come over here and have a little something.”

Lucian looked at the two women expressionlessly and said, “No, thanks. I still need to pick up Essie. You two enjoy.” Then he turned around with the intention of leaving.

The moment he did that, Sonya called out to him and stopped him.

“You should visit Aubree when you have the time and help put in a good word for her in front of Mr. Pearson if you can,” Sonya said.

Lucian, with his back facing the women, frowned with annoyance, replied with a deep grunt, and strode away.

In the car, he hesitated for a while before driving to Roxanne’s place.

Roxanne was having lunch with the children.

Because of what Benny had said earlier, the children had been staring at her inquisitively the whole morning and would follow her wherever she went.

Fearing that they would bring up the incident last night again, Roxanne could only try her best to find them something to do.

She felt mentally and physically exhausted.

It was the first time she had felt so tired of taking care of the children, thanks to Lucian.
