Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 551

Chapter 551

Roxanne was stunned as she instinctively recalled the sudden kiss on the stage at the mention of Sleeping Beauty.

“Ms. Jarvis?” Jerking out of her reverie, Roxanne forced a smile at Estella before telling her the tale of Sleeping Beauty.

The child paid close attention and fell asleep shortly after Roxanne finished.

Covering the child with the quilt, Roxanne lay down beside her.

Although she felt physically tired after running around an entire day, her mind was still in restless turmoil when she closed her eyes.

She couldn‘t help blaming herself despite having found Benny.

Aside from that, Estella‘s mention of Sleeping Beauty kept reminding her of the kiss during the play, and she couldn‘t seem to shake it off her mind.

Despite lying in bed for an indeterminate amount of time, Roxanne could not fall asleep.

Looking at the time and seeing that it was almost midnight, Roxanne promptly got out of bed and went downstairs.

If I‘m right, there are a few red wine bottles at the bar. Maybe I‘ll sleep better after having some red wine.

Emerging from her room, she frowned slightly when she saw that it was brightly lit downstairs.

Lucian is alone downstairs. Could he be awake as well?

Roxanne slowed down.

She did not want to go down and face the man alone at that hour.

As she was debating with herself whether or not to return to her room, Lucian‘s voice sounded. “Can‘t sleep, Ms. Jarvis?”

Roxanne paused in her steps. After a long hesitation, she decided to go down.

“How did you know it was me?”
