Leaving The Country After Divorce novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 304

Chapter 304 The Culprit

When the doorbell rang again, Archie and Benny instinctively turned to look at Estella. They quickly stopped Lysa from going downstairs to open the door and did it themselves instead.

Only one person will come to our house at this hour, and he must be the one looking for Essie.

Opening the door, Archie and Benny did not seem surprised at the sight of the man dressed crisply in a suit standing outside. Behind him, there was also a man holding a medical kit. The boys figured from the latter’s appearance that he was a doctor.

“Where’s Essie?” Seeing that it was Archie and Benny, Lucian felt a headache coming.

The boys’ prejudice toward him, though unfathomable, was deep-rooted. I guess I won’t be able to get in there easily today.

And as he had expected, the two boys blocked the entire path and stared at him with full alert. “Why are you here?”

Mommy surely doesn’t want to see him. And now that she is sick, it will only make her more upset if she sees him now. That might even affect her current condition.

Archie’s and Benny’s eyes glistened with conviction.

Lucian could see through Archie’s and Benny’s minds. He scrunched his brows helplessly and uttered, “I heard your mommy is sick, so I brought a doctor along.”

Finishing his words, he stood aside to make way for Sonny to step forward. “This is Dr. Elswick, the family doctor of the Farwell family,” Lucian introduced.

Sonny flashed a warm smile and slightly nodded at Archie and Benny.

The two boys exchanged a look and turned back with a suspicious expression. “How did you find out that Mommy is sick?”

In a deep voice, Lucian responded, “Ms. Ward gave me a call earlier, informing me that Essie came to find your mommy.”

Archie and Benny appeared a little hesitant.
