Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 186

Chapter 186 The sky had already turned dark when Roxanne left the operating room.

She saw the night sky and suddenly realized that she was late to pick her kids up, so she quickly changed her clothes and rushed to the kindergarten.

At the entrance of the kindergarten, she saw from a distance that a guy with a hand in his pocket was standing beside a bench. The kids were sitting together and eating their burgers with their heads down.

Roxanne couldn‘t help stopping short when she saw that.

It seemed like Lucian could sense her gaze because he looked up and took a glance at her. After that, he shifted his attention to the kids and told them something

All three of them then simultaneously turned to her. Each of them had a half–eaten burger in their hands when they ran to her.

Feeling apologetic, Roxanne crouched down and stroked the kids‘ heads. “I am so sorry for being late.”

Archie and Benny were used to her being late, so they didn’t mind and shook their heads when they heard what she said. They were actually worried about her. “Mommy, have you been working all this time? Are you tired?”

“Not at all,” replied Roxanne while grinning.

Despite her words, her body was actually exhausted.

If it weren‘t for her kids, she wouldn‘t even have the strength to lift her arm.

Years ago, a complication occurred when she gave birth to her kids, and she lost a lot of blood. As a result, she had been frail and weak.

It was also why she would be exhausted every time she operated for an extended period and would need to rest a lot to recuperate.

“Why is Essie...?” asked Roxanne as she stared at Estella in confusion.

Lucian is already here to pick her up, so why hasn‘t she gone home yet? Or... did he stay out of the courtesy to take care of Archie and Benny?

Conflicting emotions welled up in Roxanne when she came to that conclusion

No one knew when Lucian had made his way to them, but when he heard that question, he answered in an even tone, “Essie refused to leave them behind.”
