Chapter 1041 Too Late
“Mommy…” The kids leaned on Roxanne’s knee anxiously as they said, “We’re fine, Mommy! Don’t
worry about us.” Roxanne’s expression darkened as she examined the wounds on their arms.
“I know you’re all missing Essie, and I don’t blame you. But take a look at your injuries! Why did you lie
to me?” She could tell that the injuries weren’t the result of a simple fall. Furthermore, it was unlikely for
both kids to fall at the same time.
Noticing their mother on the verge of tears, Benny glanced at Archie guiltily and muttered in a low
voice, “We bumped into a few older kids along the way, and they chased after us.”
He then explained further, “Thank goodness Archie was there to defend me, and we were able to return
home!”
Seeing that Benny finally told the truth, Archie decided to shoulder the blame himself. “If anyone is to
blame for this, it’s me, Mommy. I was the one who wanted to bring Benny out.”
Roxanne’s gaze darkened. “Why would they chase after you? Were they trying to rob you?”
Just when Archie was about to speak, Benny blurted out, “No. Archie wanted to give them some
money, but they declined. They even claimed to have already received their payment…”
Upon hearing those words, Archie quickly shot Benny a look that made the latter shut his mouth
meekly.
“I suppose it was just an accident.”
Archie added nonchalantly, “Maybe they mistook us for someone else. We didn’t know them at all.”
Still, Roxanne had already thought of something. Forcing a smile at the boys, she said, “Okay. Come
here and let me bandage your wounds. After that, I’ll take you both out to dinner.”
Archie and Benny dared not to say anything further as they let Roxanne dress their wounds.
After she was done, Roxanne reminded the kids to be careful with the injuries before heading upstairs
to call Lucian.
Meanwhile, in the Farwell residence, Lucian felt exasperated as he watched Estella, who was having
another autistic episode.
In front of him, Sonya patiently held Estella in her arms as she tried to coax her to speak by offering her
snacks and toys.
Nonetheless, Estella didn’t even bother looking at them. She simply lowered her head and fiddled with
her fingers.
“Essie, are you happy that you’re attending a new school next week?” Sonya asked, grinning widely at
Estella.
Estella had a reaction right after her new school was mentioned. She merely pouted in reluctance.
Lucian frowned, wanting to persuade his mother. “Since Essie isn’t willing to attend school, let’s just
homeschool her instead.”
Sonya shot him a glare and said, “I have already found a good school for Essie. If she continues to
behave like this, she will need to interact with people more often.”
With that, she continued playing with Estella, who was still in her embrace.
Sonya was not discouraged at all despite Estella ignoring her.
She was content as long as Estella was away from Roxanne, Archie, and Benny.
Lucian was about to say something further when the phone on the table suddenly rang.
After seeing the caller ID on the phone, his eyebrows furrowed. Immediately, he grabbed the phone
before Sonya could notice the name.
“Let me take this call outside.”
Sonya gave him a dubious look as she watched him leave the room.
I wonder who’s calling him. Why is he acting so mysterious?
As he stood in the courtyard after emerging from the mansion, Lucian frowned heavily while he stared
at the phone, which was still vibrating in his hand.
The only reason she’s calling at this hour is to check on Essie’s condition.
At that thought, Lucian’s lips curled into a wry smile.
Isn’t it a bit too late for her to be concerned about Essie now?
