The Abandoned Wife

Chapter 1013 What Had Happened Between Them

Meanwhile, at the research institute, Cayden rambled incessantly about Lucian's merits while helping to transport the medicinal herbs. Regretfully, Roxanne remained unmoved.

At the end of his rope, Cayden took his leave after transporting the medicinal herbs and left. On his way back to Farwell Group, resentment brewed within him.

Even when he went into the CEO's office to report back to Lucian, his face was as black as thunder. "What's with this expression of yours?"

Glimpsing his assistant's expression, Lucian frowned, thinking that Roxanne turned down his help. Only then did Cayden snap back to his senses. He chuckled guiltily. "Nothing."

Seeing that he didn't want to speak of it, Lucian didn't press him for an answer, merely inquiring, "Have you sent the medicinal herbs over?"

Cayden suppressed the grievance within him and replied succinctly, "Yes. Ms. Jarvis received it personally." He initially thought that his employer would have questions since he mentioned Roxanne. Unexpectedly, Lucian acted as though he didn't hear it, nodding expressionlessly. "Got it. You're dismissed." That's all?

Cayden was stunned for a long while, finding it incredulous. When Lucian remained silent, he sheepishly spun on his heel to leave. While he walked out of the office, he wavered about telling the man about Roxanne and Jack riding in the same car.
