The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 815

Chapter 815 Opportunity

Roxanne stood at the doorway after the two guests entered the house, but a look of self-mockery flashed across her face. They had not seen each other for a week, so she should have already known what was on the man’s mind.

When she saw him just now, she unexpectedly had an illusion that the man was using Estella as an excuse to pay her a visit. She had nearly forgotten that whatever was between them had ended after Lucian’s competition with Jack.

Presumably, they were here today because Lucian was pestered by Estella into coming, and therefore had no choice but to agree.

Realizing that she got lost in her thoughts, Roxanne forced herself to focus and closed the door before entering the house.

In the dining room, Archie and Benny noticed that Lucian and Estella have arrived. Their little faces were filled with excitement as they asked out of concern, “Have you eaten yet, Essie?”

Estella merely shook her head.

I’m eager to come here and see Ms. Jarvis. How would I have time to eat? Even Daddy hasn’t eaten yet!

Seeing Estella shaking her head, the boys chorused, “Then join us!”

After saying this, the boys looked expectantly at Roxanne.

Meeting the gazes of the children, Roxanne gave them a smile and turned to look at Lucian. “I assume you’ve not eaten yet, Mr. Farwell. Why don’t you sit down and grab yourself a bite to eat?”

Since their ambiguous relationship had ended, Roxanne could finally treat Lucian like her friend without having any qualms.

A strange feeling rose in Lucian’s heart when he noticed that Roxanne had taken the initiative to invite him to partake in their meal. He tried to perceive what was on her mind through her expression, but she had already entered the kitchen.
