The Abandoned Wife (Lucian)
Chapter 1359

Chapter 1359

Samuel was so infuriated that he lost his composure.

“You imbecile! Didn't | tell you not to mess with Roxanne? Why didn’t you listen? Do you want our entire family to pay the pricewith our lives?” Samuel tightened his grip with each second.

Aubree was losing her breath as she struggled, causing her to knock something off the floor, which produced a loud sound.Upon hearing the sound, Gina hurriedly went over to comfort Aubree as she thought the latter was throwing things out of anger.However, the sight of Samuel strangling Aubree was what greeted her right after she went through the door.

“Samuel, what are you doing?”

Gina’s knees went weak for a while before she rushed to them and pried Samuel off of Aubree.

Falling to the floor, Aubree held her neck while panting heavily.

“What happened? Wasn't everything fine earlier? Sonya has even agreed to ask Lucian for forgiveness on our behalf. Why didyou lose your temper again?” Gina questioned in dissatisfaction as her heart broke for her daughter.

“What did | lose my temper again, you ask? Why don’t you ask this imbecile of yours about what she did? Because of her,Lucian’s outraged once again! Not to mention Sonya, even Mr. Elias can’t save us this time!”

As Gina heard that, her hand on Aubree’s back froze as she stared at the latter in disbelief. “What did you do this time?”

In a state of frenzy, Aubree shouted, “I didn’t do anything wrong! That b*tch asked for it! She was the one who messed with mefirst!”

When her words fell, Samuel slapped her so hard she fell to the floor again. “You still show no remorse, huh? You’re groundedfrom now on! Don’t even think of stepping foot outside of this house!”

Wearing a gloomy look, Aubree held her cheek.Roxanne, that b*tch! | will never forgive her!Lucian kept his word. He showed Pearson Group no mercy.

In just a short period of time, nearly all business partners of Pearson Group put their termination contracts forward on thegrounds that the Pearsons might ruin their reputation.

Not only could Pearson Group not afford to pay a single penny of the liquidated damages, but they could possibly face a hugesum of compensation as well.

That night, the Pearson family members gathered in Samuel's living room.

“What exactly did Aubree do to get Farwell Group to target us like this, Samuel?” asked someone who could remain calm, tryingto clarify with Samuel to see if there was a way to make things right.

However, Samuel was too embarrassed to speak.

The members of the Pearson family had not been that supportive of the marriage contract between Aubree and Lucian.

Initially, they welcomed the idea, as they could gain Farwell Group's support, but after observing Lucian’s attitude in the past fewyears, they suggested dissolving the marriage contract. After all, they were certain Lucian would not stop supporting thembecause of the favor he owed Old Mr. Pearson. If they delayed further, Lucian’s patience might run thin.

Even so, Samuel and his family did not believe it as they clung to hope, only to backfire when the prophecy came true—FarwellGroup ruthlessly oppressed Pearson Group as a result of a falling out.

“This is all your fault!” someone scolded. “What do you plan to do now?”Forcing a smile, Samuel replied, “I'll ask Aubree to come here now so she can apologize to all of you.”

As his words fell, Gina quickly had someone call Aubree to the living room.
