Chapter 670
When she turned back, Roxanne saw Lucian pouring two cups of water and putting one each in front of Archie and Benny.
She was puzzled. Is he doing that because they asked for it, or is it because he wants to relieve the awkwardness from earlier?
Just as her mind was still in a chaotic mess, a cup of water suddenly appeared in front of her.
Roxanne came back to her senses and glanced at the person next to her.
Lucian smiled at her mysteriously, then retracted his hand from the cup and turned his attention back to the stage.
After staring at the cup with mixed emotions for a long while, Roxanne thanked him in a small voice. She felt apologetic because she believed she had misunderstood him earlier.
In order to show him that she didn’t hold a grudge, she took a sip of water from the cup he had given her.
The children’s lips quirked up when they saw how the adults interacted. They thought Roxanne had lowered her guard.
When the concert ended, Lucian and Roxanne left the auditorium with the children.
The darkness of night had descended upon the world when they stepped out of the building. Lights of various colors lit up around them, and the square was bustling with people. It was a lively sight.
“Mommy!” Benny pulled his mother’s hand.
Roxanne lowered her head and followed the direction he was pointing at with her eyes. There was a musical fountain not too far from them in the square. It was spraying water to the music, and plenty of children and adults were playing in the water.
Roxanne rarely took the children out at night, so it was their first time seeing that kind of fountain, and they were excited to play with it.
