Chapter 1003 Mention Daddy More Often
Jack accepted her words of gratitude. With that, Roxanne bid him goodbye and prepared to step out of the car. To her surprise, she bumped into Lysa and the boys as soon as she opened the car door.
“Mommy!” Archie and Benny had just returned from their kindergarten, so they were excited to see Roxanne. In the meantime, they also noticed Roxanne did not drive home with her car.
If I remember it correctly, this is the one Mr. Damaris drove this morning.
Just as the boys were guessing who the owner of the car was, Jack’s head popped out from behind Roxanne, and he smiled at them. “Did you two just come home from your kindergarten?”
The children nodded slowly, feeling a little upset. Mommy said they were only going to work, but why is she home so late? And why is Mr. Damaris sending her home?
No matter how hard they looked, there seemed to be some intimacy between the adults. Immediately, the imaginary alarm in the children’s minds went off.
No way. We must help Daddy look after Mommy before they make up with each other.
Meanwhile, Roxanne knew what was on their minds the moment she saw their expressions. She could not help but feel exasperated.
Regardless, she turned around and said, “I’ll take them home first. Please let me know when you’ve reached home, Mr. Damaris.”
Jack gave a brief answer and drove off.
Once the car was out of sight, Roxanne spun around to explain, “My car wasn’t repaired completely, so I couldn’t start it. That’s why Mr. Damaris sent me home today.”
She was sure the kids’ imaginations would be running wild if she did not clear things up right there and then.
Obviously unsatisfied with her explanation, the kids asked, “Were you two working together the entire day?”
Roxanne nodded. “Mr. Galloway was there, too.”
Of course, the kids knew who Colby was. They felt that he was also one of Lucian’s love rivals, too.
Hearing that, the boys grew more worried.
