Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 1231

A few moments later, Roxanne organized her thoughts and explained, “It’s just standard procedure for acupuncture. If he wants to perform it on me, he can’t do it with my clothes on.”

Upon hearing that, Lucian furrowed his eyebrows slightly as a look of dissatisfaction flashed past his eyes. Now that I think about it, Jack did need to remove her clothes to perform acupuncture on her. Still, it was disturbing!

His jealous expression amused her.

“Setting that aside, Jack’s behavior is still very suspicious,” Lucian concluded stubbornly.

That rendered Roxanne speechless.

While she didn’t want to believe Jack was acting maliciously, she had to admit that, from an objective point of view, he was pretty suspicious.

Lucian frowned at her and informed her coldly, “I plan to investigate this matter in the afternoon. Will you join me?”

Nodding, Roxanne was about to accept his invitation when the children pounced into her embrace.

Thus, instead of replying to him, she stared at the children, puzzled.

“Mommy!” Benny peered at his mother caringly. “Are you going out in the afternoon?”

The children overheard the adults’ conversation because they had been somewhat intentionally playing around the two.

When they heard Lucian was about to investigate his love rival, they were enthused to lend a helping hand.

Roxanne smiled at them. “I may need to visit the research institute later. Is it okay if you three are alone at home in the afternoon?”

The moment she ended her sentence, Benny shook his head.

Perplexed, she asked, “What’s the matter?”

He grabbed her hand. “You’ve just recovered, Mommy. Even though you’re not in the hospital right now, you should still rest at home for a couple of days.”
