Leaving The Country After Divorce novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 1279

Chapter 1279

As Lucian drove back to the Farwell residence, he was still in a foul mood.

Mom really trusts Aubree too much! It’s so bad that she belittled Roxanne in such a manner!

Even until he arrived back at the manor, his expression remained as black as thunder.

Roxanne’s message came in when he alighted from the car.

The moment he saw her name on the screen, his expression eased. He tapped on the notification and took a look at the message.

It read: The kids are clamoring to go to the amusement park to have fun. When are you free?

Through the words alone, Lucian could sense her reluctance when she sent that message.

She probably only sent it because the kids were pestering her, and she had no other choice.

Even so, his mood improved by leaps and bounds. He was even gripped by the urge to tease her.

Lifting his hand, he tapped the screen a few times and replied: Does this count as you asking me out?

Right then, Roxanne was surrounded by Archie, Benny, and Estella.

“Has Mr. Farwell said anything yet, Mommy?”

“Is Mr. Farwell going to the amusement park with us? We want to go with him!”

Archie and Benny gazed at her earnestly.

Estella, on the other hand, had climbed onto the couch. Clinging onto Roxanne’s shoulders, she fixed her eyes on the phone screen in curiosity.

Meanwhile, Roxanne wore a conflicted expression on her face.

Gah! I’ve got no idea what they were thinking to suddenly make a fuss about going to the amusement park. On top of that, they kept saying that they wanted to go with Lucian and bugged me to ask the man. Worse still, they refused to sleep before receiving an answer from him!

Left with no other recourse, she could only text Lucian.

That was the first time she took the initiative to do so after they parted ways on a sour note.
