Leaving The Country After Divorce novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 1195

Chapter 1195

As Benny wasn’t about to say anything. Lucian turned to look at Roxanne.

Roxanne’s lips thinned as she flashed a smile. “It’s nothing. I promised Ms. Pearson to keep a distance from you. After a near–death experience, I pondered over my decision and realized I had too many reservations earlier. I am concerned about Essie, so I should’ve asked about her despite Ms. Pearson’s warning.”

Her face showed that she was overcome with feelings of regret and guilt.

Lucian gazed at her for a few moments. Noticing no indication of any abnormality, he ceased his inquiry.

He didn’t really trust Roxanne’s words, but he remembered the specialists‘ reminder earlier and decided to question Roxanne about the details after her recovery.

Thus, the topic came to an end.

Roxanne heaved a sigh of relief silently and told the children, “It’s late, so you should head home and get some rest. You can visit me tomorrow.”

Naturally, the children refused to do as told and shook their heads.

Roxanne had to shoot Lucian a pleading look.

Lucian’s brows knitted together. He could understand the children’s feelings.

“It’s late, so I believe it wouldn’t be wise for the kids to travel back home. There’s an unoccupied room adjacent to yours. Why don’t they rest there for the night?”

He then looked at the kids, seeking their opinion on the arrangement.

The three children nodded obediently.

Roxanne relented. “Thank you, Mr. Farwell.”

Lucian inclined his head and led the kids out of her ward.

Cayden was still waiting outside the ward.

Seeing them, he greeted, “Mr. Farwell.”
