Leaving The Country After Divorce novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 112

Chapter 112 I Will Not Keep Annoying You

After learning the truth, the two of them bid goodbye to Madilyn and trotted home sadly.

Madilyn didn’t know she could be won over so easily. When she saw how disappointed the two kids were, she hurriedly applied for a leave from work and went over to accompany them.

Archie and Benny were completely down.

All this time, they had been under the impression that their father probably didn’t really hate them.

Now that they knew he had expelled them from school, they realized that he did actually hate their guts.

Benny couldn’t help but tear up at the thought, and his small hands clutched at the couch cover nervously, his small mouth pressed into a straight line.

Archie was also extremely disappointed, but he was slightly calmer compared to his brother.

When he saw the tears in Benny’s eyes, he began to comfort his brother. “Don’t cry over that bad man. If he doesn’t like us, then we shouldn’t like him either. Besides, Mommy doesn’t seem like she wants us to know about it, so let’s pretend like we don’t know, okay? Let’s not make her worry.”Benny sniffed and nodded silently.

Meanwhile, Roxanne had just finished up at the kindergarten when she bumped into Lucian, who was sending Estella to school.

Estella looked as if she was in another mood and was pouting, barely letting her father drag her to school.

When their eyes met, Estella’s gaze lit up as if she were excited about something.

Roxanne’s heart lifted for a second but dropped again at the sight of the man next to the child.

The two of them quickly approached her.

Estella tugged at Roxanne’s skirt lightly as she looked up at the latter with watery eyes, as if waiting for her to say something.

Roxanne fell silent before stepping back slightly, removing her skirt from Estella’s grip. “Archie and Benny won’t be coming here anymore, so you should take care of yourself, okay? You can make friends with the other kids.”

She saw the light in Estella’s eyes slowly fading off as she spoke and Roxanne looked away, trying her best to sound calm. “I have to go to work. Goodbye.”
