At night, when Lucian returned to the mansion, Roxanne shot him a meaningful look to stop him from mentioning Sonya's accident in front of the children.
“Daddy, Mommy, I've signed up for a computing competition, and it's an international competition too!” said Benny eagerly.
Lucian immediately rubbed the child's head and praised, “That's great, but remember to have mercy on the other children, okay?”
Benny's hacking skills had currently reached a level of expertise that shocked even Lucian.
Archie, who also wanted his father's affection, hurriedly announced his news next, “Daddy, I joined a variety show called Mega Brain and came in first in the qualifying round. The production team invited me to the final round. May I go?”
Roxanne could not help but feel rather astonished as well. These children! What have they been up to when we weren't noticing?
Lucian picked Archie up in his arms at once and planted a huge kiss on the child's face as he complimented, “Your memory is even better than a computer's. You should go ahead and join the finals if you want. I promise to be there with you.”
Estella began to feel desperate. After some thought, she quickly chimed in as well, “Daddy, Mommy, I sent a famous designer from Epea a copy of my design. He offered to accept me as his apprentice, but I'm still young and don't want to go abroad yet.”
Both Lucian and Roxanne were struck dumb by this news.
“Which famous designer is that? Is he a legitimate designer?” asked Lucian in a serious tone. He could not help but be worried that Estella might have fallen for a scam.
Right then, Archie and Benny both helped to explain.
“I was the one who helped Essie find the designer. He's really a renowned designer ranked third worldwide. It's Bernard Brown, the designer behind many famous brands!”
“Yes, since Essie isn't very proficient in sending emails in Ustranasion yet, I helped her with the translation. The replies that came from his end are still in my inbox, and they're really from Mr. Brown's work email.”
Roxanne and Lucian exchanged looks.
Are our genes really so powerful? Our children are practically geniuses!
