The Abandoned Wife

Jonathan chimed in, "Mr. Damaris, I understand that you're worried about Ms. Jarvis, but it's really late right now. Why don't you come again another day?"

Jack frowned, finding something amiss about their responses.

"I'm on my way back too. If you don't mind, why don't we head downstairs together?"

With that, Jonathan rested his arm around Jack's shoulders and quietly led the other man into the elevator. "My grandpa was talking about how he wants to visit your grandpa, so why don't we discuss when a meeting between them would be good?"

The children were around, and even though Jack was upset about the situation, he could not show his displeasure right there and then. Hence, he quietly followed Jonathan into the elevator.

Jonathan then gave Lucian a look before pressing the button to close the elevator doors.

Only when the elevator started going down did Jack realize what seemed amiss.

All of them were telling him that it was too late for him to visit Roxanne, but Lucian was still in her ward.
