The Abandoned Wife novel Chapter 276

Pippa sent a message to the parents' group chat to get an update.

Yet every response she received was of no good news.

Everyone knew how precious Estella was to Lucian, so they had gone all out to look for her. Unfortunately, the botanical garden was located near the forest, and no one was dumb enough to go there.

Lucian read everybody's reply, and he looked even more upset knowing that no one found Estella.

He did not get in touch with Roxanne after the two of them parted ways at the botanical garden, so he did not know how she was doing.

It was getting late, and he didn't feel right to have her, a physically weak woman, continue searching.

Thus, he gave her a call.

However, the automated responses told him that she was not in the service area after he made several calls.

Lucian's gaze became even darker.

Cayden arrived with his team at that moment. “Mr. Farwell, we've sent our men to spread out in the forest and commenced the search.”

Lucian nodded and sternly informed, “Search overnight if that is what it takes to find Essie. We must hurry up.”

“Understood.”

Lucian looked at his phone screen which had turned dark. He frowned and said, “I need to drop by the botanical garden. Keep me in the loop about the search.”

After saying that, he made his way toward the botanical garden.

It's late. If that woman still hasn't returned, then there may not be anyone around to take care of the boys. There's no saying how much guilt she will drown in if the boys go missing before Essie is even found.

When he reached the botanical garden, he realized that Archie and Benny weren't there.

Lucian's heart sank. He turned around and went back to the hotel, praying that they were waiting there.

Essie wanted to tag along earlier today, so why did I urge Mommy to hurry up? This is all my fault...
