Chapter 429
Roxanne felt a lot better when she woke up the next morning. Recalling that she was to send the children to the kindergarten, she got up and washed up before opening the door to head downstairs.
Just as she did, she was greeted by the sight of the two boys at the door.
Looking forward to their mother sending them to kindergarten, the excited Archie and Benny had woken up early to wait at Roxanne‘s door.
Their initial plan was to knock and wake her up, but they decided against it, as she wasn‘t feeling well. Not wanting to disturb her rest, they resigned themselves to waiting outside.
When Roxanne came out of her room, the boys‘ eyes lit up. “Mommy!”
Roxanne stroked their heads. “Come along now. Let‘s have breakfast before I send you to the kindergarten.”
Both of them nodded as they held Roxanne‘s hand, one on each side of her. Every now and then, they would look up at her to ascertain if she had fully recovered.
When they arrived downstairs, Lysa had already prepared breakfast. Madilyn, too, was already seated at the table.
At the sight of them, Madilyn got to her feet and looked at Roxanne. “How are you feeling?”
“A lot better.” Roxanne smiled. “I‘ll send them to the kindergarten later.”
Madilyn nodded in relief. “I‘ll head out first, then.”
She had dropped by first thing in the morning because of her concern for Roxanne‘s health.
Roxanne was about to invite her to stay for breakfast when Madilyn said, “I‘ve already eaten. You guys enjoy your breakfast. I‘ll take my leave now.”
Roxanne didn‘t insist upon hearing Madilyn‘s words.
After bidding the boys goodbye, Madilyn turned and left.
