Leaving The Country After Divorce novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 506

Chapter 506

The next day, Roxanne was so busy working at the research institute that it was already seven in the evening when she got home.

Upon entering the house, she froze in surprise when she saw Lucian standing in the living room

I remember agreeing to rehearse the stage play after the kids got off school, but I didn’t think he’d just let himself in without informing me beforehand…

“Mommy!” Archie and Benny called out to her excitedly when they realized she was home. They then gave Estella’s hand a gentle tug, prompting her to turn around.

Estella had a disappointed expression on her face at first, but her eyes lit up the moment she saw Roxanne:

“Ms. Jarvis!” Estella shouted as she ran over and threw herself at Roxanne before Archie and Benny could.

Suppressing her discomfort, Roxanne patted Estella on the head and asked, “When did you come over, Essie?”

“She came home together with us!” Archie and Benny replied before Estella could.

Noticing the frown on Roxanne’s face, they continued explaining, “Essie really wanted to see you, so we let her come home with us, but she got a little unhappy because of how late you came home, Mommy.”.

Estella was so happy to see her that she didn’t even hear what Archie and Benny were saying

Roxanne’s heart softened up when she saw Estella staring at her like that. “I’m sorry to have kept you waiting because of work, Essie.”

Estella shook her head.

She was happy as long as she got to see Roxanne.

She only got unhappy earlier because she thought Roxanne was avoiding her again.
