The Abandoned Wife novel Chapter 422

The airplane slowly regained control, but Roxanne's mind was still as blank as an empty piece of paper.

It wasn't until the plane had safely landed that Roxanne slowly came to her senses. She was still fearful of whatever had happened just now.

“I told you we would land safely.” Lucian's words seemed to have hidden meaning in them. “Since we've finally touched down, you can let go of me now, right, Ms. Jarvis?”

Roxanne was surprised.

She had been so terrorized by what had happened just now that she had totally forgotten about the man sitting next to her.

Wait, let him go? What is he talking about?

Just as she was in a dazed, something moved in her left hand.

Roxanne looked down and saw that her hand was intertwined with Lucian's on the armrest.

To be more accurate, it was her latching onto Lucian's hand for dear life. There were even marks of her fingernails embedded on his skin. As she had been gripping his hand so tightly that her hand had gone stiff, she did not even realize that she was holding his hand.

Looking at their interlocked hands, Roxanne remained in shock for a few seconds before snapping back to reality. She instantly let go of Lucian's hand as if it burned her.

Lucian chuckled lightly at her reaction, not at all surprised by it.

It was after Roxanne retracted her hand that she realized that her body was drenched in a cold sweat. Her palms were also just as sweaty.

At that realization, she looked at the man next to her, only to see that he had gotten a tissue and was wiping his own palm slowly.

It was obvious that his palm was full of her sweat as well.

A wave of embarrassment washed over Roxanne.
