The Abandoned Wife

Chapter 622

"Yes, I like Essie a lot, but that doesn't mean I'm willing to marry you." Without giving Lucian a chance to answer her, she added, "What happened six years ago is still fresh in my mind. I don't wish to make the same mistakes. You shouldn't trouble yourself anymore, Mr. Farwell."

Roxanne sounded anxious as she spoke. She could sense Lucian's intense gaze on her.

Fortunately for her, she managed to say whatever she wanted to say.

Lucian stared at her for a long time, and he thought of explaining himself. However, he changed his mind when he heard Roxanne's last sentence. I did her wrong six years ago, and I've hurt her. I can't blame her for not trusting me. No matter what I say, I doubt she'll listen to me now. In fact, she might even think I'm making excuses for myself.

At that thought, Lucian said, "I was wrong for using Essie as an excuse. Regarding my feelings for you, I think you'll see my sincerity in due time."

Roxanne had never seen this side of Lucian, so she didn't know how to react at that moment.
