Chapter 1610 Not As Husband And Wife
Roxanne was annoyed with him leaving the hickey in such a visible spot, but at the same time, she was also grateful that he helped solve the trouble at the research institute. For a moment, she did not know how to respond.
Lucian was unbothered. He walked up to hug her from behind. After glancing at the hickey on her neck, he kissed the same spot again.
Roxanne avoided him, her face red. “You knew about it long ago, did you?”
Lucian looked at the spot with disappointment. “I should have left it on your neck.”
Hearing that, Roxanne got even more frustrated. “I won't be able to conceal it even if I want to!”
Lucian shrugged and responded, “I want everyone to know you're mine.”
Before Roxanne could throw a fit, he rested his head on her shoulder and whispered in her ear, “I have no choice but to resort to this method since you refuse to accept my proposal...”
He sounded quite aggrieved.
Roxanne knitted her brows slightly but was quick to regain her composure. She reached up to pat his head. With a soft voice, she coaxed him, “Does it matter if I agree or not? What difference does it make?”
Lucian caught her hand and kissed it. “It's not the same.”
He gazed into her eyes deeply before releasing her hand from his grip. “We should get ready. It's getting late.”
Roxanne heaved a sigh of relief as she was grateful Lucian did not say anything more after that. Lucian held her hand and walked her out.
“Mommy! Daddy!” The three children had a good night's sleep on the weekend. As they were walking downstairs, they noticed Lucian and Roxanne holding hands.
Roxanne quickly lifted her other hand to cover the hickey on her neck.
Lucian remained calm. “We're going out this afternoon. You guys stay home. Call me if Grandpa and Grandma come over.”
The little ones obediently inclined their heads in acknowledgment.
