Sonya gazed at Roxanne, finding the latter different from usual. She seems... fiercer.
Realizing that, Sonya scowled. “How dare you talk to me like that? Do you really think you've become Lucian's wife just because he posted that statement on the internet today?”
Roxanne responded curtly, “I never thought that way. I'm just telling you the truth. If you think my words are too harsh, why didn't you wonder if you've gone a little too far?”
There was nothing wrong with her words, but her tone was sharp.
Sonya's face contorted with anger, and she lowered her head to glance at Archie and Benny, who eyed her with hostile gazes.
The boys truly hoped Sonya could accept them, but they were displeased to hear the way she talked about them.
Moreover, it was obvious that Sonya was bullying Roxanne—all the more reason for them to glower at her.
However, Sonya's anger only spiked further when she met the boys' gazes. “Did I say something wrong? I really don't understand what's wrong with Lucian. How could he make an announcement saying these two are his?”
Now that Sonya had directed her malice at them, both Archie and Benny's blood boiled, so much so that they almost pounced on her and attacked her.
Regardless, their expressions only made Sonya dislike them more. “How could these uneducated children be part of the Farwell family? Who knows? They might be products of your entanglement with another random man. The audacity of you to even attempt to make them heirs of the Farwell family? You're delusional!”

At that point, Roxanne had forgotten all about being polite. “Mrs. Farwell! Essie, Archie, and Benny are my children. Even if they don't get to live in the Farwell residence, I'll still provide them with a comfortable life. Don't worry. We don't want a single cent from the Farwell family!”
