Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 218

Chapter 218

“Mr. Farwell, is there anything I can help you with?” Roxanne halted in her tracks and turned around to look at Lucian as if he was just a stranger.

Upon meeting her gaze, Lucian furrowed his eyebrows.

The attitude Roxanne had now was as distant as the time when they first got divorced. It was the same attitude that had caused Lucian to perform unexpected acts.

Back then, Lucian thought Roxanne would really disappear from his life if he did not attract her attention.

As Lucian did not answer, Roxanne tugged her wrist back with a frown. “If there‘s nothing much, please let go of me. I still need to go to work.”

Both their outstanding looks quickly garnered attention. After all, not only were they attractive, but the parents of the kindergarten were not ordinary people. Thus, most of them knew who Lucian was.

Many of them had already turned around to look in their direction.

Roxanne feared it would be too scandalous if they continued to be seen with each other for another second longer.

If that happened, she would soon be facing a lot of trouble.

Lucian finally snapped to his senses when he noticed her struggle. While loosening the grip on her hands, he spoke with a complicated expression. “After talking with Estella yesterday, I realized that her speedy recovery was mostly because of your efforts. Thus, it‘s only right for me to show you my appreciation.”

Not only was that an excuse to ask Roxanne to stay behind, but it was also something he meant from the bottom of his heart after his experience the day before.

At first, Lucian thought Roxanne was just someone to cheer Estella up by staying by her side. Thus, he did not expect Roxanne to bring such a significant impact on Estella.

It must have taken Roxanne a great deal of effort to make Estella talk again.

Upon hearing that, Roxanne replied blandly, “That‘s all right. You have helped me quite a lot recently. Besides, I‘ve told you that we don‘t owe each other anything, so there‘s no need for that.”

After saying that, Roxanne nodded before making her way past him and into the car.
