    Leaving The Country After Divorce Chapter 235 Chapter 235 The sudden ringing of the phone broke


    the tense atmosphere at the dining table.As Lucian’s mind was preupied with Roxanne’s


    rtionship with Larry, he picked up thecall without looking at the phone.The moment the call went


    through, he heard a female’s concerned voice.“Lucian, I heard you went to Bellridge for a business trip.


    How are things? Have you settled them?” Aubree had gone to the office yesterday to look for


    Lucianand ended up making a wasted trip.She found out that Lucian had gone to Bellridge only after


    she asked Sonya.As such, she had called him early in the morning to show concern toward him.She


    had thought that he would not pick up like all the previous times she called.Yet, little did she expect him


    to pick up the phone so quickly.Aubree thought that Lucian had finally let go of his prejudices against


    her, and her voice was filled with delight.Lucian frowned upon hearing her voice and subconsciously


    looked at Roxanne.As they were quiet, Roxanne and Larry heard the voiceing from the other side


    of the phone even without intending to do so.Roxanne’s gaze darkened the moment she heard the


    voice.She remembered Aubree’s words from theirst encounter – Roxanne was the third party


    between her and Lucian.The call also reminded Roxanne that regardless of Lucian’s attitude on the


    matter, he would beengaged to Aubree soon.It was only fitting that she kept her distance from


    him.As she recalled this, she put down her fork, smiled politely at Lucian, and got up to leave.Upon


    seeing this, Lucian said to Aubree over the phone without a second of hesitation, “I have to attend


    tosomething.I’m hanging up now.” He looked up and wanted to say something to Roxanne.However, he


    saw her get up and stumble with a startled look on her face.Lucian frowned deeply and quickly stood


    up without hanging up the phone.Roxanne was in a hurry to leave and had identally knocked into


    the chair beside her.She let out a short yelp that ended the very next second.“Be careful!” Lucian held


    his phone in one hand and her wrist in the other.Roxanne thought he had ended the call and thanked


    him softly after hearing what he said.All of Aubree’s delight was swept away when Lucian said he was


    going to hang up the call.Just as she was about to say something, she heard the yelp of a woman


    coming from the other sideof the phone.Upici LUUThat voice sounded familiar to her.She eyed the


    screen and did not know why Lucian had yet to hang up.She bit her lip and remained silent.T have to


    find out the identity of the woman!However, little did she expect to hear Roxanne saying thanks thenext


    second.The moment she heard Roxanne’s voice, she gritted her teeth and hung up the call.With a


    grave expression, she threw her phone onto her bed violently.It’s that b*tch Roxanne againH’ve already


    warned her thest time.To think that she has the cheek to appear before Lucian’Also, based on what I


    heard, Lucian hung up thephone because of her! Aubree’s face turned red from anger.She thought that


    Lucian had finally had a change of heart when the call went through.Never did she expect Lucian to


    give her such a big surprise.That b*tch is out to provoke me! Aubree clenched her fists so tightly that


    her fingernails dug into her palm,and her eyes were filled with hatred.All text ? N?velD(r)a''ma.Org.
