The Abandoned Wife novel Chapter 414

“Why don't you ask them? There is no woman in Summerbank who would dare to disrespect me,” Joseph said as he inched closer to Roxanne.

There was a look of disdain in his eyes as he stared at the woman in front of him. “You should feel honored that I'm talking to you, but yet here you are, trying to brush me off. Do you really think that you can get away with it just because you have a pretty face? Don't forget that you are now in Summerbank.”

Roxanne willed herself to calm down. After glancing at the men behind Joseph, who were all staring at her, she decided to swallow her pride. “That was not what I meant. However, if you want to be friends, you can just tell me directly. I wouldn't dare to be friends with you if you bring so many people along. I'll be afraid.”

Joseph thought that Roxanne finally got the hint for he turned around to shoot his friends a look.

The group of men instantly retreated. However, they still looked at Joseph and Roxanne with a look of anticipation.

Soon enough, only Roxanne and Joseph were left standing face-to-face.

Joseph's gaze shamelessly wandered around Roxanne's body.

Roxanne curled her fingers into a tight fist as she resisted the urge to vomit. She forced a smile onto her face while walking backward calmly. She was trying to lure Joseph away from the others' line of vision.

Once she managed to get Joseph alone, she would be able to take a chance and strike him. If Roxanne could strike him on his acupuncture points, Joseph would not have any energy to retaliate. With that, she could escape.

It would have been hard for her to attack him when there were so many people around.

Just as she was about to turn the corner, a wail sounded from the crowd standing outside.

Everyone was stunned at the sudden shout and turned around to look in the direction of the sound.

All that could be seen was a young man, who had been standing at the edge of the group, soaring through the air and falling down to the floor in front of the crowd.

When the crowd noticed what had happened, they moved aside to make way.

Roxanne's gaze instantly landed on the man who was walking through the crowd. Her eyebrows furrowed slightly.

He had once again caught her at her worst.

“Who is it!” Joseph roared, wanting to get revenge on behalf of one of his friends who had been attacked.
