Dislike Them
The next morning, when Roxanne woke up early, Estella was still asleep. She left the bed gently to
avoid disturbing the girl and went downstairs to prepare the children’s breakfast.
Because of the messy situation last night, she woke up a little later than usual even though she was
awake before the children. She hadn’t even prepared breakfast when the doorbell rang.
Roxanne stopped what she was doing, and her heart sank. Is Lucian that eager to bring Essie back
home? The doorbell rang incessantly, which roused the children from their slumber and prompted them
to descend the stairs.
“Is Mr. Farwell here, Mommy?” Archie frowned at the entrance. Estella’s gleeful countenance from
yesterday had been replaced with a pitiful expression as she stood behind the boys. I want to stay with
Archie and Benny longer!
Seeing that the children had arrived downstairs, Roxanne had no choice but to put the things in her
hands down and open the door.
“Mr. Fair—” Roxanne cut herself off when she realized the visitor wasn’t who she thought it was. “Why
are you here, Mr. Damaris?”
Jack was holding a bouquet of baby’s breath with a warm smile. “I was worried when you didn’t come
yesterday or explain why you couldn’t make it, so I decided to visit early in the morning. I didn’t disturb
your rest, did I?”
As he spoke, he looked inside the living room and saw three children staring at him warily.
He couldn’t help but be taken aback at the sight of the kids. “They are…”
When the children snapped back to reality, they politely but distantly greeted Jack, “Hello, Mr.
Damaris.”
Estella was unfamiliar with Jack, but she still greeted him with the boys.
Jack nodded with a smile. “Good morning to you three.” Then he raised his eyebrow at Roxanne. “The
girl is Mr. Farwell’s daughter, isn’t she?”
Roxanne hesitated for a few seconds before inclining her head. “She came here to play with Archie and
Benny.”
He’s aware the three of them are in the same class, although I don’t know if he’d believe what I just
said. She lowered her eyes guiltily, afraid he would notice anything unusual.
Thankfully, Jack simply nodded meaningfully and sized her up. “I thought you didn’t show up yesterday
because you were sick. It seems that my concern is unfounded.”
“Sorry for worrying you, Mr. Damaris.” Roxanne gave a small smile, then looked at the flowers in his
hand in puzzlement.
Jack handed the flowers to her after detecting her apparent interest in them. “I thought you were feeling
unwell, but I wasn’t sure what to bring when visiting you, so I brought you these flowers. I hope you
don’t dislike them.”
Roxanne was slightly stunned, her heart filled with hesitation. It sounds reasonable, but accepting his
flowers in front of the children is a little… I’m afraid they’ll misunderstand something.
Just as she wondered what to do, Estella trotted toward her and tugged her shirt. “Ms. Jarvis.”
Roxanne lowered her eyes.
Estella rubbed her tummy and whined, “I’m hungry.”
Roxanne smiled apologetically at Estella before turning her attention back to Jack. “Sorry, I woke up a
little late today. I haven’t prepared their breakfasts. Please, come in and sit with us.”
“Sure.”
