The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 859

Chapter 859 Would She Feel Guilty

While Roxanne was in two minds over whether or not to hurry to the Farwell residence, Jack strode out with a document in his hand and called out, “Ms. Jarvis.”

She had no choice but to suppress the worry in her heart and quickly walked toward him. “What’s this?”

“You didn’t come in after some time, so I thought I’d bring out the document you needed to go through. You can take a look and sign it if there are no issues.”

Hearing that, she murmured her assent and checked the document carefully. A moment later, she looked up at Jack and nodded. “Everything looks fine.”

“Excellent,” he said with a smile. “You look a little upset. Did something happen?”

Recalling the sound of Estella’s cries, Roxanne fell into a slight daze.

Jack was puzzled when he saw that she did not respond after a long time. “Ms. Jarvis?”

Roxanne jolted to her senses and shot him an apologetic smile. “These are the medicinal herbs we need. Is there anything else you need my help with?”

Jack shook his head.

Seeing that, Roxanne took her leave immediately. “I’ll have to trouble you to take care of the rest, then. I have to attend to some urgent business, so I’ll head off now.”

Observing the expression on her face, Jack agreed in a non-committal way, “Since it’s something urgent, you should get going.”

Roxanne nodded at him gratefully before turning and hurrying away.

Jack watched her leave with a deeply perplexed look in his eyes.
