The Abandoned Wife

Chapter 923 Pick Me Up

Lucian stared at Roxanne with a grim expression. Even if she did not say it out explicitly, he could tell that she was still being suspicious of him.

Realizing that, Lucian's expression darkened terribly, while the tone of his voice became colder. "Since you are refusing my offer, Ms. Jarvis, I won't insist upon it anymore."

Lucian's words still left her wondering why he had decided to come all the way to see her in the first place.
