The Abandoned Wife novel Chapter 334

Aubree, not daring to look Sonya in the eye, nodded while biting her lip.

Sonya sprang to her feet. “Come, let's get your hand examined.”

Just when she was about to open the door and call for Lucian, Aubree grabbed her hand to stop her. “Mrs. Farwell, it's better to keep this from him. Given how difficult it was for our relationship to finally improve, I'm worried that pressuring him might cause the situation to backfire.”

Sonya, after pondering for a few seconds, nodded in agreement.

Subsequently, Aubree got out of bed with Sonya's help before both of them exited the ward together.

When Lucian got to his feet to follow them, Sonya threw him a glance. “I'm taking Aubree out to get some air. You should carry on with whatever you're doing. I'm not expecting you to care for her that meticulously.”

Lucian had no intention of arguing with his mother over something like that. After all, he saw taking care of Aubree for the past few days as nothing more than his duty. Since his mother had relieved him of the task, he nodded in delighted relief before returning to his seat.

When Sonya arrived at the orthopedic department with Aubree, they went to see the latter's attending physician.

The result of the examination triggered a drastic change in Sonya's expression.

“Ms. Pearson, did something knock onto your injured arm recently? Your injury seems to have worsened.” The doctor furrowed his brows at the X-ray that was taken.

Just when Aubree was about to reply, Sonya preempted her, “Doctor, do you think she could have hurt herself by accident?”

The doctor shook his head. “Based on what I can see, the injury isn't caused by accident. I'm leaning toward the scenario where someone knocked into her instead.”

In other words, Aubree was lying earlier.

Sonya, with a sullen expression, turned toward Aubree. “Aubree, what really happened? Who was it that hurt you?”

It's Roxanne again! On top of seducing my son, she has even aggravated Aubree's existing injury! And yet, Aubree continues to defend her.
