Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 1749

Chapter 1749 It Was My Fault

Roxanne collected her thoughts the moment she sensed the jealousy in Lucian's voice.

Certain that the man was not upset about her keeping the truth from him since he pampered her too much to find fault in her, she turned the tables and argued instead, “Come on. Do you think we would have stayed hidden if we didn't need to? I figured you would recognize them since they look so much like you. That's why we never came back.”

Caught off guard by her questioning, Lucian was suddenly stumped for words.

Now that Roxanne had pointed it out, he realized Archie and Benny did take after him in terms of looks.

"Well, I was so caught up with getting you back I didn't notice that.”

The thought of his oversight suddenly made Lucian feel guilty. “I thought someone else was their father. At that point, I even told myself that I would teach that irresponsible man a lesson if he were to go looking for you guys, but it turns out I am the guy.”

The hatred Lucian felt toward Archie and Benny's unknown father had turned into self-recrimination ever since he learned the truth about the children.

"I'm sorry you had to go through all that. None of this will happen again. I promise I will make it up to you all.”

“It sure was tough back then. I wouldn't have tried so hard to hide their existence if I had known you couldn't tell who they were,” Roxanne complained, trying to pull his leg.

“It's all my fault. I should've found out who they were earlier and spared you all the years of hiding.”
