Chapter 1610 Not As Husband And Wife
Roxanne was annoyed with him leaving the hickey in such a visible spot, but at the same time, she was also grateful
that he helped solve the trouble at the research institute. For a moment, she did not know how to respond.
Lucian was unbothered. He walked up to hug her from behind. After glancing at the hickey on her neck, he kissed
the same spot again.
Roxanne avoided him, her face red. “You knew about it long ago, did you?”
Lucian looked at the spot with disappointment. “I should have left it on your neck.”
Hearing that, Roxanne got even more frustrated. “I won’t be able to conceal it even if I want to!”
Lucian shrugged and responded, “I want everyone to know you’re mine.”
Before Roxanne could throw a fit, he rested his head on her shoulder and whispered in her ear, “I have no choice
but to resort to this method since you refuse to accept my proposal…”
He sounded quite aggrieved.
Roxanne knitted her brows slightly but was quick to regain her composure. She reached up to pat his head. With a
soft voice, she coaxed him, “Does it matter if I agree or not? What difference does it make?”
Lucian caught her hand and kissed it. “It’s not the same.”
He gazed into her eyes deeply before releasing her hand from his grip. “We should get ready. It’s getting late.”

that he helped solve the trouble at the research institute. For a moment, she did not know how to respond.
Roxanne heaved a sigh of relief as she was grateful Lucian did not say anything more after that. Lucian held her
hand and walked her out.
“Mommy! Daddy!” The three children had a good night’s sleep on the weekend. As they were walking downstairs,
they noticed Lucian and Roxanne holding hands.
Roxanne quickly lifted her other hand to cover the hickey on her neck.
Lucian remained calm. “We’re going out this afternoon. You guys stay home. Call me if Grandpa and Grandma
come over.”
The little ones obediently inclined their heads in acknowledgment.
Lucian went out with Roxanne and headed straight to Neon Boutique.
It took Roxanne a while to realize Lucian had brought her there for a makeover.
“Do we really need to make such a big deal out of this?”
The press conference in the afternoon only required them to sign a contract in front of reporters. All Lucian needed
to do was put on a suit for the occasion.
Yet, he clearly had a different idea in mind.
Instead of loosening his grip on her hand, Lucian led her into the store upon hearing her words. “I’m not just doing
this for you. I need to prepare too.”
Roxanne looked at his back, wondering what else the man needed to prepare for. He’s already looking like Prince

Charming.
“This is the first time we will officially appear together in front of the media. Though we’re not appearing as
husband and wife, it’s still worth paying attention to.” Lucian meant every word he said.
To him, the press conference in the afternoon was not just about the contract. It was also an opportunity to
announce their relationship to the world!
Every time he thought of how Jack had been eyeing her with obvious interest, Lucian felt a twinge of jealousy.
Knowing what Lucian had in mind, Roxanne decided to do as he said.
The Farwells had long been loyal customers of Neon Boutique, and that was why they could enjoy VIP privileges in
the store. The head of Neon Boutique headquarters in Horington even took the trouble to style them personally.
“Mr. Farwell, you…” While styling, the person in charge chatted with Lucian as he was familiar with Lucian. He would
occasionally turn his attention to Roxanne as he spoke.
Roxanne and Lucian knew what he wanted to ask even before he finished his sentence. It was obvious he was
eager to find out if they were ready to go public.
Lucian glanced at him and asked, “What do you think?”
The ambiguous answer he gave made the person in charge think he had misunderstood them. “I see. Got it. I’ll
make you guys look good. Don’t worry!”
