Ex-Wife Don't Leave, Love Is Coming Again! novel Chapter 1402

Roxanne could feel the temperature around Lucian dropping rapidly, so she interrupted the old lady. “I'm just here to check up on you all's condition. Since all of you are doing fine, I'll be going home now. I'll visit if I have the time in the future.”

The residents knew her home was in Horington after chatting with her yesterday. Thus, they urged the couple to leave right away to avoid driving at night.

Roxanne didn't feel relieved even after leaving the nursing home because Lucian was still visibly bothered by the old lady's words.

Resignedly, she comforted, “Uhm... Don't take that granny's words to heart, Lucian. There really isn't anything between Mr. Damaris and me.”

He glanced at her. “Do you converse with him often?”

“It's just medical stuff. That's all,” clarified Roxanne seriously. I only got to know Jack because we're in the same field. Aside from matters related to medicine, there isn't anything else for us to talk about, so there's no way I'll have feelings for him.

When Lucian heard that, his expression returned to normal.

When the two of them returned to the car, she still placed the box on her thighs instead of opening it.

“What aren't you opening it? Do you not like it?” He started the engine and glanced at her through the rearview mirror.

Shaking her head, she replied, “No, I just want to open it after we return.”

She was too embarrassed to open his gift in front of him, especially when she didn't know what he had bought.

Disappointment flashed past his eyes when he heard that, though he didn't force her.

By the time they arrive in Horington, the sky had turned dark.
