The Abandoned Wife

Chapter 517

Meanwhile, before Roxanne had the opportunity to answer, Lucian furrowed his brows and added grimly, "If it's not convenient, I'll send Cayden over."

Before Roxanne could even react, Lucian ended the call.

All she could hear was the call-end tone.

After spacing out for a few seconds, Roxanne put her phone aside. Nonetheless, Lucian's voice continued to reverberate in her mind.

She was unsure if she was overthinking it, but it felt as if he was warming up to her after spending the last two days rehearsing together.
