Chapter 923 Pick Me Up
Lucian stared at Roxanne with a grim expression. Even if she did not say it out explicitly, he could tell
that she was still being suspicious of him.
Realizing that, Lucian’s expression darkened terribly, while the tone of his voice became colder. “Since
you are refusing my offer, Ms. Jarvis, I won’t insist upon it anymore.”
With that, he turned around and left the study. As she watched his retreating figure, Roxanne’s eyes
glinted with an unfathomable emotion. Confusion filled her heart at that moment.
Lucian’s words still left her wondering why he had decided to come all the way to see her in the first
place.
She wouldn’t believe his claim that he was merely here to provide the medicinal herbs.
However, Lucian did not mention anything else besides that.
Roxanne mulled over it in the study alone, but she could not find an answer to her doubts.
After quite some time, she finally decided to leave the room.
Meanwhile, the children had finished their dinner and were playing in the living room.
“Ms. Jarvis!”
When Estella noticed Roxanne coming out, she came to her side and clung to the latter’s leg, acting
coyly.
Roxanne was taken aback by Estella’s action. It was surprising for her to see the little girl still there,
which meant Lucian hadn’t left the house yet.
At that thought, she glanced around the living room.
Sure enough, she noticed him sitting on the couch.
He didn’t even bother looking up at her as if he had never heard anything at all.
Frowning slightly, Roxanne lowered her gaze toward Estella as she forced a smile at the little girl while
caressing her hair.
Sensing something was amiss, Estella stared at Roxanne’s face incessantly with her bright, doe-like
eyes.
Roxanne knew the children were sensitive toward her emotions. In an attempt to avoid their sight, she
turned her head, but it was already too late.
“Are you in a bad mood, Ms. Jarvis?” Estella asked, tugging at Roxanne’s dress cautiously.
Upon hearing those words, Archie and Benny came over and stared at their mother.
Seeing the three children staring at her made Roxanne feel a little embarrassed.
As she recalled the conversation between Lucian and her, she felt her current emotion was all his fault.
With that thought in mind, Roxanne could not help but glance at the man who was sitting on the couch.
Lucian’s dark eyes met her gaze instantly, much to her surprise.
As their gazes met, Roxanne somehow felt a sense of guilt within her. She then retracted her gaze
nonchalantly.
Furrowing his brows, Lucian got up and said, “It’s getting late. We should go home now.”
Upon hearing Lucian’s words, Estella tightened her grip on Roxanne’s dress and looked at her father
hesitantly. “B-But…”
It looks like Ms. Jarvis is in a foul mood. I just want to comfort her.
However, Lucian was unfazed by Estella’s reaction, merely looking at them emotionlessly.
Roxanne glanced at the man, who was standing not far away from them, before turning her attention
back to Estella again. Unable to bear hurting the little girl, she ruffled Estella’s hair.
“Be a good girl, Essie. Go home with your Daddy and get some rest. Archie, Benny, and I will come to
pick you up tomorrow.”
The thought of going camping tomorrow with them made Estella feel slightly better.
Suddenly, she thought of something and quickly glanced at Lucian, who still remained expressionless.
However, he did not mention anything about the camping trip.
When Estella saw her father hadn’t refused the trip tomorrow, she breathed a sigh of relief. She then let
go of Roxanne’s dress hem reluctantly.
I thought Daddy and Ms. Jarvis had a fight again, and he won’t allow me to join her camping trip!
“Ms. Jarvis, you’ll come pick me up early tomorrow, right?
Before leaving, Estella reminded Roxanne once again.
Roxanne smiled as she nodded at Estella.
