The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 1285

Lucian, Roxanne, and the three children had fun at the amusement park for the rest of the day.

For dinner, Lucian brought them to a nearby high-end restaurant.

“I want to sit with Aunt Roxanne!”

When they were about to be seated, Estella held onto Roxanne’s blouse tightly while wearing a prideful expression.

Upon hearing how Estella addressed Roxanne, Lucian, Archie, and Benny were taken aback and instinctively glanced at Roxanne.

Roxanne was hesitant to meet Lucian’s gaze as she said, “Essie wanted to call me that, so I agreed to it. If you don’t like it, then—”

Before she could finish her sentence, Lucian cut in with raised eyebrows, “Personally, I feel there’s a much closer term of address, but if that’s what you want, let her address you that way for now.”

Lucian then ushered Archie and Benny to their seats.

Since Estella wanted to sit with Roxanne, Archie and Benny expressed through their actions that they wanted to sit with Lucian.

In the end, Roxanne and Lucian sat opposite each other, with the children by their sides.

The three children were happy with the arrangement. Lucian glanced up and felt satisfied when he noticed that he could look at Roxanne with this seating.

Lucian had called ahead to order their meal, which consisted of the restaurant’s signature dishes.

In a thoughtful gesture, he even ordered ice cream for the children.

The design of the ice cream was unique. The waiter did a little magic, and the ice cream turned different in a blink of an eye.

The children clapped their hands in surprise and excitement.

It was a habit for Roxanne to put the children’s plates in front of her and cut their steaks into bite-sized pieces.

Unexpectedly, when she looked up, she saw Lucian was already doing that job for her.
