The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 993

Chapter 993 Grim Expression

At the Farwell residence, Aubree was having dinner with Lucian and Estella. While they were eating, Aubree tried her best to engage in a conversation with the two, but she received no response.

This angered her. Indeed, Lucian did not kick her out this time. However, he was acting as though she did not exist, as he had never looked at her once.

They finally finished dinner. Aubree stood up first and turned to Catalina. She kindly said, “Catalina, let me help you clean up.” Catalina was surprised and wondered why Aubree had a sudden change in attitude.

Before she could say anything, Aubree had started cleaning the table. Since Lucian would not accept her affection, she could only swallow her pride and try to impress him by doing little things. “Daddy…”

Estella carefully tugged on her father’s sleeve. Lucian looked down at her. “I want to see the flowers.” She glanced at Aubree as she spoke.

She did not want to stay with Aubree. If Aubree were to stay at their place, then Estella would rather go out to play. Lucian knew what Estella was thinking. He gently patted her head and said, “I’ll accompany you.”

Upon hearing that, Estella hurriedly shook her head. “I can go by myself. I’ll just be in the garden. Daddy, you shouldn’t go outside since you’re sick.”

Lucian smiled and calmly replied, “It’s just a cold. I can still see the flowers with you.”

After saying that, he stood up and held out a hand to Estella.

Estella’s eyes lit up.

Although she said she wanted to see the flowers because she was trying to hide from Aubree, she did not expect Lucian to want to follow along.

This is my first time seeing the flowers with Daddy!

A huge smile tugged at Estella’s lips as the thought crossed her mind.

On the other hand, an icy glint flashed across Aubree’s eyes as she watched the two leave. She put the plates in her hands back on the table.

“Ms. Pearson?”
