The Abandoned Wife

Chapter 1079 I Must Stop Crying

"Why are you upset? Did I say something wrong?" Roxanne forced herself to stay calm and looked at him.

She did want to break off ties with the Farwell family, but this wasn't how she expected it to happen. If I do nothing to stop him from bringing Essie away, no one knows what he'll tell her back home.

Seeing that she didn't seem to know her mistake, Lucian frowned angrily. "How are you wrong? Didn't Essie make it clear? It was my fault."

With that, he turned to leave. Roxanne gritted her teeth. It was obvious he said that out of anger, so she couldn't let him leave in this state. Lucian was already downstairs when Roxanne finally made up her mind. She quickened her steps and grabbed his sleeves.

As she approached, Estella's cries grew quieter.

Lucian glanced at her hand gripping his sleeve with his dark and inscrutable gaze.

I wonder what she will say.

Roxanne's instincts acted faster than her mind. She stopped him but could not find the words to make him stay.
