Leaving The Country After Divorce novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 1031

Chapter 1031 So Mature For Their Age

While Pippa knew nothing about the affairs between their families, Archie and Benny knew exactly what happened. Daddy must’ve transferred Essie because he got into a fight with Mommy! He doesn’t want to let us play with Essie anymore!

Archie’s and Benny’s eyes reddened. They had always been obedient and composed in class, so this was Pippa’s first time seeing them cry. For some reason, she found herself empathizing with them.

Pippa knelt beside them and said gently, “Don’t worry. The three of you are very close, so I’m sure Essie will come to play with you two very often. Besides, I’m sure Essie wouldn’t want to see you two crying like this.”

Although Archie and Benny were still upset, they didn’t want to cause Pippa any trouble. Archie nodded obediently and held Benny’s hand as he said, “Come on, Ms. Ward. Let’s head inside!”

Pippa breathed a sigh of relief when she saw them stop crying, but she still felt bad for what they had to go through. My goodness… These two are so mature for their age!

Apart from being a lot quieter throughout the day, Archie and Benny showed no unusual behavior. It wasn’t until class was over that their eyes turned slightly red.

Pippa could see that they were still upset about Estella leaving, but she didn’t know how to comfort them. She simply held their hands in silence.
