The Abandoned Wife

Roxanne wasn't sure what was going on with herself, but she really didn't want to be misunderstood by Lucian, especially regarding her relationship with Jack.

After ending her sentence, she gazed at his expression carefully.

Fearing that she might have misunderstood him, Roxanne held back from further thinking about the matter and nodded. "Then I'll give him a call."

However, he just kept quiet because he believed he should act magnanimously after she explained their relationship voluntarily.
