Aubree wanted to say something, but Roxanne was already bidding her goodbye. “I still need to bring my children to meet with the doctor. Take care, Mr. Farwell, Ms. Pearson.”
She nodded at the couple coldly and left.
Aubree's mouth opened as she stared at Roxanne's figure. Then she closed it up in frustration. Her fingers dug into her palm while she tried to suppress her displeasure. I wanted to show off my status to this b*tch, yet it's as though she didn't notice it at all! Still, based on her reaction earlier, I'm pretty sure she has no feeling left for Lucian.
When her train of thought ended there, she felt better. She turned to her man and said, “Let's leave too, Lucian.”
Then she swept her gaze past the direction Roxanne left and complained, “Ms. Jarvis is quite ill-mannered. We were just expressing our concern for her sick kid, yet she gave us that attitude. It made me think I said something wrong.”
Lucian didn't reply.
Aubree turned to him with a confused look.
His eyebrows remained tightly furrowed as he kept staring at the leaving family. It was as if he didn't hear her at all.
A wretched expression flashed past her face. What's so good about that b*tch? Despite her sh*tty attitude, he still cares so much about her!
She suppressed her envious rage and carefully tugged his sleeve. “Lucian? What are you thinking about? If you're worried about the child, I can accompany you to visit him.”
Since things had turned out that way, she had to continue playing a gentle character to make Lucian think highly of her.
No words left her lips as she was flabbergasted. Is he telling me to meet the doctor myself?
