Leaving The Country After Divorce novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 758

Chapter 758 Impasse

Noticing that the two did not enter the room even after some time, the three children couldn’t resist coming outside to check. As soon as they reached the door, they felt the tension between the two adults.

“Mommy?” Benny tugged at Roxanne’s clothes cautiously and asked with concern, “Did you get into a fight with Mr. Farwell?”

His voice brought Roxanne back to her senses. She composed herself and gave him a faint smile. “No. We just have a disagreement on some things.”

After saying that, she threw Lucian a look in hopes that he would keep his composure in front of the children. Fortunately, Lucian cared about the kids enough to soften his expression.

He looked down at Estella and said, “Essie, it’s late. It’s time to go home.” Sensing the chilling aura around her father, Estella pouted and shook her head. “No.”

Lucian knitted his brows. Before he could say anything, Estella announced, “I want to be with Ms. Jarvis! I don’t want to go home!” She had already made up her mind while she was playing with Archie and Benny earlier.

Since Ms. Jarvis, Archie, and Benny can’t stay in our house, I can stay here with them instead! I don’t want to go home and see scary Ms. Pearson. Plus, Daddy looks scary now too. That means he won’t spend much time with me when we’re home.
