Ex-Wife Don't Leave, Love Is Coming Again! novel Chapter 126

She even tried turning on the waterworks as she pleaded with him, but Lucian did not loosen his grip in the slightest.

It took Aubree every ounce of energy she had just to get a breath of air in, but she still stubbornly refused to admit to what she had done.

If Lucian is being so vicious toward me simply because he suspects me, then there's no telling what he'd do to me if I admit to it!

Cayden was shocked when he came in after Lucian and saw Aubree's face turning purple. Fearing that Lucian would accidentally kill her, he quickly ran forward to stop him. “Let go of her, Mr. Farwell! She'll die if you don't!”

Instead of letting go, Lucian simply tightened his grip on her neck even further.

In that very moment, Aubree had no doubt that he would actually strangle her to death.

Eventually, Cayden had no choice but to step in and forcefully pry her out of his grip.

Having been drained of all her energy, Aubree slumped to the floor immediately after being released and panted heavily.

After taking a moment to regain his composure, Lucian glared at her as he said, “Fine, you can keep that act up for as long as you like. I'll ask Essie about it when she gets better, and I will come for you if you really are the one behind this!”

He then stormed out of the house with Cayden following closely behind, leaving Aubree on the floor with a mix of anger and fear all over her face.

D*mn it! Why won't that little b*stard just die? Now I have to live in fear of her telling on me!

The mere thought of what Lucian would do to her terrified her to no end.

Lucian had been completely silent after getting into the car with Cayden.

“Mr. Farwell, would you like to go check on Ms. Estella?” Cayden asked cautiously after a while.

“Take us back to the manor,” Lucian replied while suppressing his anger.
