Leaving The Country After Divorce novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 1516

Chapter 1516

Roxanne had wanted to personally send and pick up the three children to and from the kindergarten. She thought she would be more relieved if she did that.

However, she did not expect to be so busy on the first night and ended up asking Linda to pick them up in her stead.

Half an hour later, she received a call from Archie.

Roxanne thought Linda had not arrived, so she quickly answered the phone.

Roxanne could hear Archie's wary tone from the other end of the call. “Mommy, can we go home with Ms. Linda?”

Roxanne was momentarily stunned when she heard that. However, she quickly returned to her senses and remembered that she had told them not to follow anyone else home.

She did not expect the children to be that vigilant.

“Yes, you can. I was the one who asked Ms. Linda to pick you up. You should head home first,” she replied softly.

Archie agreed in a childish voice and hung up.

Roxanne placed her phone aside and felt guilt well up in her heart.

Something big has happened, and Aubree's whereabouts are still unknown. I should've stayed home and taken care of them.

However, the research for the new medication was an urgent matter. She had no time to lose.

She pondered over it before dialing Lucian's number.

The call connected quickly. “Roxanne, what's wrong?”

Roxanne lowered her head and asked, “Can I ask you for a favor? Can you please take care of the children for a few days?”

Lucian is their father. It makes sense for him to take care of the children if I'm busy. Plus, only Lucian can ensure their safety.

Surprise flashed across Lucian's face. His lips curved upward into a smile as he replied, “Of course. I'm happy that you can trust me.”
