Leaving The Country After Divorce novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 1404

Upon hearing Benny's words, Roxanne felt embarrassed again after having just regained her composure.

Echoing through her ear, Lucian's deep voice carried a hint of amusement. “Take a look. Do you like it? I wasn't really sure what to buy and the sales attendant recommended me another design. However, I think this one suits you better.”

Roxanne seized upon the opportunity to avert her gaze from his.

Turning around, she checked the rearview mirror to see how she looked.

She was greeted by the sight of a platinum necklace circling her neck. Hanging between her collarbones was a minimalistic round pendant that was covered with crushed diamonds. Sitting right in the center, it made her look as if her collarbones were sparkling. It was a sight that bedazzled her.

Lucian, who had somehow walked up behind her, asked anxiously, “Do you like it?”

Upon regaining her senses, Roxanne turned around and smile. “It's beautiful. I love it, Mr. Far—”

She almost addressed him as Mr. Farwell out of habit, but the thought of their currently ambiguous relationship made her change her mind. “Thank you. I appreciate it very much.”

As what she almost called him by didn't escape his notice, Lucian's gaze darkened although he refrained from commenting.

Meanwhile, the children surrounded Roxanne and gasped in awe.

“Mommy, you're gorgeous!”

“The necklace really suits you. In fact, it looks even more beautiful on you!”

“Mr. Farwell has a sharp eye indeed!”

The praise they showered on her caused Roxanne to blush. Trying hard to hide her emotions, she looked down at the children and smiled. “You haven't opened the presents I bought you, have you? Let's go inside and do it.”

Elated by the mention of presents, the children followed Roxanne into the mansion.

After the children settled down on the sofa to open their presents, jubilant cheers echoed in the living room from time to time.
