The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 934

Chapter 934 What She Was Capable Of

Looking at the figures, Aubree narrowed her eyes as she subconsciously tightened her grip around the vial she’d gotten from the man. Meanwhile, Roxanne remained oblivious of Aubree’s presence.

Just after lunch, the afternoon sun bathed the land in its warm light. The kids didn’t feel sleepy at all. Quite the opposite, they felt hot due to the rising temperature.

Roxanne scanned her surroundings before bringing them toward the waterfall, where the group was instantly greeted by a pleasantly cool breeze. Even Roxanne couldn’t help but let out a satisfied sigh.

“Ah!” All of a sudden, Estella ran and hid behind the woman’s back. Roxanne lowered her head, confused.

All she could see was Archie and Benny, both barefooted in the stream, splashing water toward the little girl.

When they noticed Estella was hiding behind their mother, the two little boys instantly stopped what they were doing, feeling a tad guilty over their actions.

Roxanne had observed the topography earlier. Although they were at a waterfall, the flow of the water—which only reached the boy’s calves—was slow.

Since the kids knew how to swim, she wasn’t too concerned about an accident happening. For that reason, Roxanne didn’t say anything else and merely directed Estella to stand next to her.

“You’re doomed for splashing water on Essie!” She then squatted down and began splashing water at the two boys.

Seeing that their mother wasn’t angry, they regained their enthusiasm and began to play. Estella was soon influenced by them and participated in the fun.

Alas, Roxanne’s energy was limited. After playing with them for a while, she retreated to the side and watched over the kids while taking pictures of them.

The atmosphere was lively and cheerful. Estella had a smile on her face the entire time, and the children’s tinkling laughter echoed throughout the waterfall.

The sound of it made Roxanne smile as well. Over on the road, Aubree had been hiding in wait all the while.

Seeing that they weren’t going to return to the tent anytime soon, she got out of her car and inched closer toward the tent, being extremely careful not to make any noise.
