The Abandoned Wife novel Chapter 369

“So what if he doesn't know about it? All the medicinal herb suppliers in Horington listened to Farwell Group and stopped working with Roxanne. We're just following suit,” the person replied matter-of-factly after a brief silence.

Rex belatedly realized he had been tricked, and his heart sank. Alas, it was too late to do anything.

“What if Mr. Queen asks about it?” he asked carefully.

The person fell silent for a few moments before brushing him off. “Just tell him the truth. It's obvious that he doesn't know about Farwell Group as he demands to see you. Tell him everything.”

The call was then ended.

Cold sweat had drenched Rex's back by the time the call ended.

The person didn't reveal anything, but he wasn't a fool. It was clear that Jonathan knew nothing about the matter.

I was dragged into the mess, but I dare not offend any of them...

Rex still hadn't figured out an excuse to justify his actions when his car rolled to a stop outside the Queen residence. However, he had no choice but to knock on the door.

Soon, the butler answered the door. “Mr. Tanner, welcome. Mr. Queen and Old Mr. Queen are waiting for you inside.”

Rex was drenched in cold sweat and could not bring himself to walk in.

He assumed Jonathan wanted to question him, so he had no idea that Alfred was informed about the matter.

This is far worse than I imagined it to be.

At that point, he had no other options but to face the matter.

With his head hung low, Rex followed the butler to the living room.

No one spoke for some time.
