The Abandoned Wife (Lucian)
Chapter 1313

Chapter 1313

Estella’s cries became sharper, and her eyes were filled with terror as she gripped Roxanne’s shoulder tightly.

Roxanne instinctively pulled Estella into her embrace and turned around, wanting to take the attack on the latter’s behalf.However, only a muffled thud was heard.

The pain that was supposed to follow did not happen.

It took Roxanne several seconds before she slowly lifted her head to glance in the direction where Aubree was coming from.

To Roxanne’s surprise, Aubree’s hand that held the ashtray earlier was held by Lucian while the ashtray had dropped to theground.

Various emotions could be seen flashing across Aubree’s face.

First, there was the mad look on Aubree’s face for the urge to kill Roxanne. Another was her terror for Lucian.“You crazy woman!”

Lucian’s grip on Aubree’s wrist was so tight that it could almost crush her bones.

It was only then that Aubree snapped back to her senses. Suppressing the pain in her wrist, she apologized frantically, “I-| don’tknow what's wrong with me. Forgive me, Lucian. Lucian—”

Before she could even finish, Lucian shoved her away.

Aubree stumbled a few steps back and slumped to the ground pathetically. “I swear | won't do it again. Please forgive me...” shepleaded, ignoring the pain in her body.

“Forgive you? So you can get another chance to attack the people | care about? Aubree Pearson, you deserve to die foreverything you did.” Lucian’s voice was horrifyingly cold.

Shuddering, Aubree backed away with the help of her hands. At the same time, her gaze fell on Sonya. “Mrs. Farwell, pleasehelp me...”

Aubree knew how much Sonya liked her.

Seeing Aubree still had the guts to beg her for help, Sonya rose to her feet and barked, “I don’t know a vicious woman like you!”She cast her granddaughter a worried look before turning back to Aubree. “I always thought Essie didn’t like you because youtwo didn’t spend enough time together. Never did | imagine you to have treated her that way behind our backs. You’reunbelievable, Aubree!”

The thought of how much Estella had suffered over the years made Sonya’s heart ache.How dare this b*tch still beg me for mercy? How shameless!

“From today onward, the marriage contract between the Farwell and Pearson families is off. After all, I've already repaid Old Mr.Pearson’s favor long ago,” announced Lucian. He then cast the Pearsons an icy glance. “In the future, Pearson Group is anenemy of Farwell Group!”

Samuel could not bear it any longer.

He marched forward, wanting to grab Lucian’s arm.

This time, Cayden was quick to react as he blocked Samuel's path.Given no choice, Samuel stood in his spot and looked at Lucian earnestly. “Please don’t do this, Lucian. Back then, my father—”He wanted to try bringing up the favor his father had done for Lucian.

“Old Mr. Pearson's favor had exhausted long ago when Aubree went looking for Roxanne for trouble! | said this before. | won't lether off the hook if she dares to harass my person again.” Lucian cast Samuel a hostile glare.

Samuel's heart sank, and his eyes dimmed with despair.

Lucian turned around to look at Estella, who was still crying, and Roxanne, who was patiently comforting the little girl. The sightonly spiked his anger more.

The nerve of her to hurt the people | care about!

Turning around, he marched over to Aubree and glanced at her condescendingly. “Since you won't apologize to them, I’ve got nochoice but to resolve this with my methods.”
