Leaving The Country After Divorce novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 501

Chapter 501

Roxanne immediately refuted that, “I think you got it wrong. We’re mere acquaintances and are not close.”

Cassandra raised an eyebrow and decided to try her luck. “In that case, can we switch our groupings for the play?” she asked, harboring hope that Roxanne would say yes and she could partner with Lucian instead.

Although she hoped to hook up with Lucian, even if she failed, she would still be happy to have a hunk like Lucian as her prince in the play.

Roxanne was excited by Cassandra’s proposal. However, recalling Jeffrey’s words, she had her doubts. “Can we still make a switch now?” she asked, looking uncertain.

Cassandra could tell Roxanne was agreeable, so she nodded her head excitedly and said, “So long as we’re both agreeable, I don’t see why not. All we have to do is inform Ms. Ward about our decision.’

Roxanne was hopeful and nodded in agreement.

Jeffrey could not accommodate her request for a switch earlier as he would have difficulty coordinating the change with other parents. However, since Cassandra initiated the switch and both of them were agreeable, she did not think Jeffrey and Pippa had any reasons to object.

After reaching a consensus with Cassandra, the two ladies went back to their own seats. They planned to inform Pippa of their agreement later.

Archie and Benny led Roxanne to their seats, and her jaws dropped when she saw where their seats were.

She had no idea the boys were seated next to Estella.

That meant she had to take a seat next to Lucian!

“Mommy…” The boys gingerly nudged her when they saw her dazed and rooted to the spot, with no intention of sitting down.

Roxanne snapped out of her shock, gave the boys a forced smile, and sat down awkwardly, her body tensed.
