Chapter 1064 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.
