The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 1244

“You ask for it!” Aubree snapped back to her senses and lunged at Roxanne.

Roxanne firmly grasped an acupuncture point on Aubree’s arm, causing the latter to experience discomfort and become feeble.

“I’m not only going to slap you. I also want to remind you that you’re the real homewrecker!”

Roxanne inched nearer to Aubree. In a voice that only the both of them could hear, she whispered, “You merely got engaged to Lucian, but I was his wife back then. If it wasn’t for you, we wouldn’t have gotten divorced!”

That was the first time Aubree heard of that. Cold sweat beaded on her forehead as she gritted her teeth against the pain. “That’s because Lucian loves me! He wouldn’t have married you if it weren’t for his grandpa!”

Roxanne’s eyelashes quivered. Her heart started wavering, but she quickly tamped her emotions down.

Aubree’s actions are too outrageous. I need to solve the problem!

With that thought in mind, Roxanne spoke with a chill in her voice. “Regardless, we were married. If you hate homewreckers, then you should have kept your distance from him instead of becoming one yourself!”

Aubree paled visibly. “You’re being unreasonable!”

“You know well if I’m being unreasonable or not.”

Roxanne applied pressure to an acupuncture point on Aubree’s arm. After making sure that Aubree was too weak to resist, she pushed her away.

Aubree sucked in a deep breath as it felt like her arm was going numb from the pain.

However, she mustered her courage to avenge herself as she could not tolerate the insults she had previously earlier.

Frieda’s heart pounded as she felt fear grip her throat when she saw the look on Roxanne’s face. She held Aubree tightly and backed away, her movements slow and cautious.

After taking two steps back, she thought she looked like a coward and forced herself to come to a stop. “What do you want to do?”

Roxanne glanced at her needles and replied calmly, “What else can I do? I’m sure you know the answer. Ms. Pearson needs to be taught a lesson, and I’m not going to let you off the hook. You’re going to ask Lucian to take action against me, so why should I let you go so easily?”

A menacing look flashed across her face. “Archie, Benny, take Essie upstairs.”

The children had no idea what she wanted to do, but it was obvious she wasn’t getting bullied anymore. They agreed obediently and led Estella upstairs.

They were still climbing the stairs when an anguished scream sounded behind them.
