The Abandoned Wife

The two were busy until eight at night.

After exiting the laboratory, Jack checked the time and suggested, "It's late now. Let's have a meal together. We haven't seen each other in a while."

However, Roxanne declined apologetically as she was a little worn out, "Let's do that some other day. I'm too tired today."

"I'll send you back, then," he persisted.

At his words, she could not help but recall her previous speculation and felt a bit concerned. "I appreciate your offer, Mr. Damaris, but I drove here. I'll have problems getting to work tomorrow if you send me back, so it's best not to."

After saying that, she continued without giving him a chance to reply, "It's indeed a little late. Let's head out early."

Jack frowned in displeasure when he saw her turning on her heels and followed her to the entrance of the research institute.
