The Abandoned Wife

It was already past nine at night when Roxanne reached home.

As she got out of the car, she felt anxious and guilty for leaving the children alone at home.

Hence, she hurried into the mansion, but as soon as she entered, she was greeted with the lively sounds of the children playing with each other and running around. Roxanne stopped in her tracks and looked inside the living room, surprised.

Initially, she thought Madilyn had come over, but Lucian was sitting on the couch instead.

As if sensing her presence, the man turned around to look.

When their gazes met, Roxanne's shock intensified. "What are you doing here?"

Didn't we agree on meeting some other day?

Upon noticing her return, the children stopped playing and gathered around her, yearning for affection.
