Does Not Seem To Know Any Better
Frieda and Hasso followed Roxanne and the others for a while. Watching as they entered the concert
venue, Frieda was so livid that she snapped a few pictures before sending them all to Aubree.
Aubree was already fuming when she saw the previous two photos that her friend had sent. When she
received a few more photos of Lucian and Roxanne entering a very famous auditorium in the city with
three children, her head buzzed as though it was about to explode.
She knew there would be a concert at the auditorium that day because she had asked people to help
her procure two tickets to that concert. The tickets were meant for her and Lucian.
However, Lucian had rejected her invitation without giving her a reason.
Aubree could only convince herself that he must be busy with work, and so she had given those two
tickets to her best friend.
However, little did she expect that the man had rejected her because he wanted to attend the concert
with Roxanne.
Aubree was about to lose her mind as she stared at the pictures when Frieda called.
She answered her phone with a scowl, only to hear the displeasure in Frieda’s voice.
“Did you see the pictures I sent you, Aubree?”
“Where did you see them?” Aubree asked through gritted teeth.
Frieda gave her a brief summary of what she had seen in the afternoon. When she finished, she said
angrily, “Roxanne’s going way overboard! She’s basically ignoring you! Mrs. Farwell has warned her
before, but instead of repenting, she even got closer to Lucian and Essie.”
Upon learning that they even had lunch together, Aubree flew off the handle. “That b*tch!”
I’ve spent much effort to convince Mrs. Farwell to warn Roxanne, yet Roxanne doesn’t seem to know
any better.
“You must be careful, Aubree.” Worried that nothing would come out of her effort, Frieda added,
“Roxanne is Lucian’s ex-wife and Essie’s biological mother. Now that Essie’s so attached to Roxanne,
perhaps…”
She deliberately trailed off to let Aubree realize what she was getting at, and Aubree did get her
message.
Perhaps Roxanne and Essie already know their relationship with each other! And I know Lucian has
been looking into the accident. If he finds out about the truth, then I’ll no doubt lose him!
At the thought of that possibility, Aubree panicked and her voice quavered. “Impossible!”
Frieda was very eager for her friend to teach Roxanne a lesson, so she continued to pour fuel into the
fire. “I hope that’s not the case too. However, seeing how intimate they are right now, it’s not impossible
for Lucian to fall in love with her again, especially when she’s quite a crafty woman. I’m reminding you
of this right now because I want you to prepare in advance. After all, you’re the most suited for Lucian
in my mind! Who does Roxanne think she is?”
Aubree was so angry that her hands were shaking. “Thanks for the reminder. I got it!”
It wasn’t until Frieda said a few more things that she hung up the phone in satisfaction.
Even though Aubree’s phone screen had turned black, she felt as though she could still see those
pictures there. “Roxanne, you b*tch! Just you wait!”
Reflected on the black screen was her contorted face.
