Chapter 703 On A Date
Just as the children were about to bargain their way out, they heard someone’s
footsteps coming from the entrance. They held their tongues and turned toward
the door, only to see Roxanne holding a bouquet of flowers in her hands,
looking puzzled.
“Mommy!” Archie and Benny dashed toward her in excitement, seeing that she
had returned. Roxanne, however, was looking at the man in her living room with
a frown on her face. Lucian? What is he doing here?
She glanced at the flowers in her hands and felt somewhat guilty. Lucian had
noticed the flowers as well, and a wave of annoyance washed over him once
more. She’s rejected all my flowers before this. But now, she’s holding a
bouquet someone has gifted her. It’s most probably from either Larry or Jack.
What does she take me for?
“Mommy?” Getting no response from Roxanne, Benny tugged at the corner of
Roxanne’s shirt. I need Mommy to convince Daddy to let us eat fried chicken in
the future!
Only then did Roxanne regain her senses and glance at Benny. He looks
anxious.
Roxanne suppressed the strange feeling in her heart and reached out to ruffle
Benny’s hair. “What is it?”
“We had fried chicken for lunch,” Benny said in a piping voice.
Roxanne was slightly baffled when she heard that. Why is he telling me that?
When we were abroad, I would always make lunch for them. But whenever I
was busy, I would have no choice but to order takeouts for them. Those
takeouts were mostly fast foods. They should be used to it by now.
Benny noticed her confusion, so he added, “Mr. Farwell said the food isn’t
healthy, and we shouldn’t eat too much of it.”
Hearing that, Roxanne could roughly guess what was on his mind.
Just as she was about to console Benny, she remembered the fact that Estella
was with the boys during lunch. Although Archie and Benny are used to it, Essie
may not be. Lucian probably said that to Essie.
Roxanne caressed Benny’s head before raising her own to look in Lucian’s
direction.
Lucian was still standing in the same place, while Estella was standing right
beside him, looking aggrieved. At that moment, he was gripping her little hand.
When Estella met Roxanne’s gaze, she greeted softly, “Ms. Jarvis…”
She had wanted to dash toward Roxanne along with Archie and Benny.
However, Lucian had held onto her hand before she could do so, and she had
no idea why.
Roxanne smiled at Estella before looking up to meet Lucian’s gaze. “Mr.
Farwell.”
Lucian was exasperated when he looked at the flowers in her hands. Coldly, he
said, “You’re an interesting woman, Ms. Jarvis. How could you go on a date
when your children were here having fast food for lunch?”
Feeling guilty, Roxanne said, “I’m sorry. I forgot Roxanne was here, and I forgot
to remind my friend about it. Archie and Benny are used to eating these when
we were abroad. My friend might have—”
Before she could finish her sentence, Lucian interrupted, “Ms. Jarvis, you were
busy dating. How could you have remembered anything?”
