“Okay. I'll wait for you.”
Lucian suppressed his disappointment and said, “You can take your time to think it over. There's no
rush. I'm willing to wait for as long as you need.”
He then glanced at the diamond ring in Roxanne's hand. “I hope you can keep the ring. Put it on when
you've thought it through. I'll know your answer by then.”
Roxanne was touched when she heard that. The guilt she felt grew more intense as she said, “Thank
you.”
She found it difficult to tell Lucian the reason she rejected him.
It wasn't because she did not believe him but because she felt she had wronged Archie and Benny.
Cayden heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Roxanne keep the ring.
Looks like Mr. Farwell still stands a chance, and a good chance at that!
However, Sonya's expression darkened.
I knew it! She's leaving my son hanging! I'd never let someone like her become a part of the Farwell
family!
Just as Sonya was thinking about how to make Roxanne give up, the latter suddenly walked toward
her.
She scrunched her eyebrows and stared at the younger woman unhappily. “Why did you come over
here? So what if Lucian proposed to you? I'd never accept you as part of our family!”
Roxanne grinned. “Mrs. Farwell, I'm not expecting you to change your impression of me so easily
either. I just hope you would treat Archie and Benny better for Essie's sake. After all, they're just
children. If there's anything, please come after me instead.”
Sonya looked at Roxanne suspiciously when she heard the latter's words.
What does she mean by that? Why do I have to treat those two b*stards better for Essie's sake? Just
because she gave birth to Estella doesn't mean she can act all high and mighty before me!
Sonya's expression turned grim when her train of thought ended there. “I don't need you to tell me what
I should or should not do!”
Helplessness flashed past Roxanne's eyes, but she did not say anything more as she turned around
and entered the mansion.
Lucian followed after her.
Meanwhile, the children were worried about the result of their parents' discussion as they sat on the
couch with frowns marring their countenances.
They looked toward Lucian and Roxanne in unison when they saw them walking in.
“Mommy!”
The children jumped down the couch in an orderly manner and ran toward Roxanne excitedly.
The light in their eyes dimmed when they noticed that the ring on Roxanne's finger was gone. They
exchanged glances with each other wordlessly, refusing to be the first to talk.
In the end, Mommy still didn't say yes to Daddy...
Archie and Benny glanced at each other, their eyes filled with disappointment.
When can we change the way we address Mr. Farwell? We really want a daddy...
Taking note of the children's disappointment, Roxanne felt sorry for them but did not know how to
explain it to them.
After a moment of silence, she changed the topic abruptly. “It's getting late. We should go home.”
Initially, if things had gone according to Lucian's plan and the proposal had been a success, Roxanne
would have stayed the night at the manor.
However, since she rejected him, she had no reason to stay any longer.
The children got even more upset when they heard that Roxanne wanted to leave.
Roxanne frowned as she stared at the children's expressions, troubled.
Just as she was wondering how she should persuade the kids, Lucian suddenly spoke up. “Let Essie
go home with you tonight. You've just reunited with each other as mother and daughter, so I'm sure
Essie is reluctant to part with you.”
The children's eyes lit up when they heard that.
Estella looked up at Roxanne with wide eyes that were filled with hope.
Roxanne had the same thought, but she did not expect Lucian to suggest it first.
Smiling, she bent over to pick Estella up. “Of course, you will come home with me, Essie. I promised
you we won't ever be apart again.”
