The Abandoned Wife

Roxanne felt her heart start to waver after hearing Lucian's words. However, she couldn't help but think that his tone sounded rather odd.

He is indeed suspecting Jack to be the culprit, but why does his last sentence...

Roxanne mulled over it for a moment when she suddenly thought of something, and a touch of surprise flashed across her eyes.

Before this, Lucian kept losing his temper with me because I was getting too close to Jack. Naturally, he's pissed off about the same thing this time as well. He's probably angry that I'm defending Jack. Wait... Could he be... jealous of Jack?

Just as that thought flashed into her mind, Roxanne snapped back to her senses and glanced at Lucian uneasily before retracting her gaze.

Somehow, I can't associate the word jealous with the man before me. It's simply impossible for Lucian to feel jealousy.

Nonetheless, now that the thought was in Roxanne's mind, it was like it had taken root and she couldn't get rid of it. As a result, she no longer dared to meet Lucian's eyes.
