“Aubree!”
Frieda only came back to her senses after Aubree left in a huff.
A loud slam sounded downstairs.
Frieda hurried over to the balcony to see Aubree marching into her car and driving away swiftly.
The sight caused Frieda to ball up her fists in frustration.
I came here today to convince Aubree not to act recklessly! Instead of achieving that, I have actually given her the idea of settling scores with Roxanne. If she heads there alone, she’ll surely cause a commotion!
Frieda quickly ran down the stairs and went after Aubree’s car, which was heading for Roxanne’s house.
…
On the other hand, Roxanne and the children had no idea about what happened back in Aubree’s house.
Roxanne was preparing lunch for the children in the kitchen.
“Mommy, will Mr. Farwell have lunch with us today?” Benny asked eagerly at the door of the kitchen.
The children noticed Lucian’s dedication as he showed up every day, but they still felt uncertain.
Hearing that, Roxanne paused in her tracks. She belatedly became aware that Lucian and the children had grown close recently.
They were so close that the kids assumed that it was normal for Lucian to have dinner there.
“Can you ask Mr. Farwell to bring me a small cake?” Benny changed his question.
Roxanne regained her composure and flashed a smile. “I don’t know. You can call Mr. Farwell and ask him about it.”
Benny’s eyes lit up. He ran away excitedly and got his smartwatch to call Lucian.
Archie and Estella waited aside eagerly.
Before Benny could find Lucian’s phone number, the doorbell rang.
