The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 928

Chapter 928 Leaving In A Hurry

The next day, Estella got out of bed and waited outside Lucian’s room. She still wanted to convince him to go camping with them.

When Lucian opened the door and was about to leave the room, he noticed the girl was standing right before him. Needless to say, Lucian knew her motive.

Instead of giving her a chance to speak, he said, “Come. Let’s go and have breakfast. Ms. Jarvis should be arriving shortly.”

The girl shook her head, but before she could say something, Lucian interrupted again. “I need to go to the office now. You must obey Ms. Jarvis, okay? Call me if you need anything.”

Before Estella could open her mouth and speak, he immediately walked past her and went downstairs.

Meanwhile, Catalina was preparing breakfast for them in the dining area.

When she saw him walking to the door, she asked in concern, “Breakfast’s ready, Mr. Farwell. Would you like to eat some before leaving?”

Lucian continued walking. “I have to leave now. Remember to open the door for Ms. Jarvis later. She’ll be picking up Essie.”

Catalina knitted her brows. She wanted him to stay for breakfast, but he had already put on his shoes and seemed in a hurry to leave the house.

She looked at his back and wondered if he was running away from something or someone. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be leaving the house in such a hurry.

While she was still trying to process her thoughts, Estella came downstairs.

Catalina immediately came to her senses. She walked the girl to the dining table and had breakfast with her.

Before they could take more than a couple of bites, the video intercom started ringing.

Catalina remembered what Lucian said earlier and immediately opened the door.

Roxanne and the two boys were standing in front of the entrance.

Catalina greeted her politely, “Good morning, Ms. Jarvis.”

Roxanne nodded in response before taking a sidelong glance at the living hall. It was as if she was looking for someone.
