Chapter 559
Roxanne retracted her hand the moment Estella got up. The warmth on Lucian’s skin was still lingering on the back of her hand after the contact.
When Roxanne regained her cool, she looked at Lucian’s hand hesitantly.
Although Estella was not heavy, the impact was still strong given how fast she was running.
Even Roxanne found it hard to stop her on her own.
On top of that, the edge of the coffee table was sharp.
Is his hand all right?
Roxanne wanted to check if he was injured, but she felt that Lucian was deliberately hiding his hand away, so she could not see anything.
After some time, Lucian put down his phone and glanced at the guilty-looking child beside him. “Let’s go out and play.”
Estella’s eyes glittered with excitement when she heard that.
Then Lucian got up and went over to the entrance to take a tourist map from the shelf. “You guys pick a place.”
The children took the map and started poring over it.
As for Roxanne, she was still thinking about Lucian. “Mr. Farwell, your hand…
“It’s fine,” he answered, looking at her, but Roxanne did not believe him.
“Let me have a look,” she insisted.
Lucian stared at her for a few seconds until he finally budged and showed her his hand.
There was a long and narrow cut on the back of his hand. She noticed traces of blood from the cut, and the area around the wound was red and swollen.
