Leaving The Country After Divorce

Chapter 1298

Lucian said nothing and merely stared at her darkly.
Suddenly, he bent down and swooped her up.
Shocked, Roxanne instinctively clung to his neck, afraid she would fall to the ground.
Her actions happened to play in Lucian’s favor.
The violence in his gaze faded a little as he strode to the shore.
Roxanne’s cheeks were flushed as she said, “Put me down.I can walk by myself now.”
She knew she had scared him.
He scooped her up in his arms because he was fearful that something similar would happen once more.
Ignoring her protests, Lucian carried her to his car and helped her settle into the passenger seat.
He retrieved his suit jacket from the backseat and draped it over her shoulders before taking his place behind the wheel.
Noticing he was still mad at her, Roxanne felt utterly helpless.

“Didn’t we come here to relax? That was just a tiny accident.”
Lucian’’s brows were still knitted together.
Deep down, she let out a sigh and said coyly, “You promised to give me a handmade shell bracelet.Don’t forget about it.”
Lucian turned over to look at her.
“I won’t go back on my word.I’ll come back another day to find the shells.As for you…”
He trailed off and gazed at her darkly for a few moments.
“Go back and get some rest.You don’t want to catch a cold.”
Roxanne was relieved.She pursed her lips and gave him a smile.
Lucian started the engine and drove away.
At the same time, Cory emerged from the bushes and patted the leaves away from his body.He lowered his head to check the photos he had taken earlier.
Cory was pleased to discover he was still a good photographer as the photos turned out nicely.
He transferred the photos to his phone and picked a few to send to Aubree.
Aubree had been in a daze these few days after getting rejected by Lucian.She didn’t even step out of her bedroom.
“Aubree, come out and have something to eat.Perhaps there is still a chance to turn things around.Lucian won’t be that cruel,”
Gina coaxed outside.She couldn’t bear to see her daughter torturing herself.
Aubree ignored her outright.
Upon discovering that Lucian intended to annul their engagement, Frieda had vanished without a trace, and Aubrec had not heard from her since.
Similarly, Cory had disappeared after Roxanne’s hospital discharge, leaving Aubree clueless as to his whereabouts.
