Lucian looked at the woman sitting on the couch.
Although he was displeased with her words, he didn't say anything more.
After bidding them a simple goodbye, he left with Estella.
As Roxanne was injured, she remained sitting on the couch.It was until the door of the mansion was
closed that Roxanne could finally heave a sigh of relief.She was still in a daze after what
happened.She recalled the events from these two days.
It felt as if everything was a dream.
After six years apart, she found herself living under the same roof with Lucian again.She had even told
him of her feelings from six years ago.
Moreover, Lucian’'s attitude toward her confused her sometimes.It was as if...he liked her.
Snapping back to reality, Roxanne could not help but laugh at herself for having such thoughts.
"Mommy." Archie cautiously tugged on her clothes.
Roxanne returned to her senses and tiredly looked at her children.Archie had a worried expression on
his face when he noticed how pale his mother looked.
"Are you tired? We'll help you to your room to rest." Roxanne nodded.
"Actually, I am quite tired."
As she had been stuck with Lucian for two days, she had constantly been in a tense state.
After getting injured, Roxanne felt even more exhausted.
Now that Lucian had left, there was no need for her to put up a front anymore.Lysa, who was standing
by the side, walked up to Roxanne when she heard her.
"I'll help you up the stairs," she said as she reached out to support Roxanne.
Roxanne smiled gratefully at her as she pushed on the couch to get up.
After she had gotten wounded, Lucian had been carrying her everywhere.It was only when she had to
walk by herself that she realized how troublesome it was.
Even though Lysa was supporting her, it was hard for her to walk when she could not put any pressure
on one of her feet.
After Roxanne slowly made her way to the stairs, she looked up at the many steps and laughed
helplessly.
"I just stay down here for the moment." Lysa then brought her to the guest room on the lower floor.Her
heart ached for Roxanne.It was fortunate that she was there to take care of the latter.
Lysa had no idea how Roxanne took care of two kids all alone.She could not imagine how hard things
must have been whenever Roxanne fell sick and still had to care for her two sons.
Archie and Benny trailed behind their mother and Lysa.
Roxanne sat down on the side of the bed and said to her twins in a soft voice, "It's late.You two should
head to bed now."
However, the boys pursed their lips and shook their heads.
"We want to be with you, Mommy!"
If Roxanne needed water in the middle of the night, they would be able to help her.
"There's no need for that.I can take care of myself?" Roxanne chuckled.
Lysa piped up, "I'll stay here tonight and take care of Ms.Jarvis.All you two need to do is to take good
care of yourselves."
Archie and Benny hesitated for a long while before slowly nodding.
Lysa brought them upstairs to rest and came down after a while.She then helped Roxanne to wash up
and brought over a mattress next to the bed.
After turning off the lights, Lysa suddenly asked, "What's going on between you and Mr.Farwell,
Ms.Jarvis? He seems to care for you a lot."
Roxanne was already pretty unsettled due to the events that had happened, so when she heard Lysa’s
question, the sleepiness in her instantly flew out the window.
She forced a smile and replied, "We're only acquaintances.It was just a coincidence that Estella is
friends with Archie and Benny."
Although Lysa was still suspicious about the situation, she knew better than to continue questioning
Roxanne.Silence soon filled the house.
Roxanne's eyes were wide open as she looked at the ceiling above her.
Multiple images flashed across her mind.It mostly consisted of times when people had misunderstood
her relationship with Lucian these two days.
Even Lysa was suspicious of them.It seems like I have to maintain a distance from him.
