The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 1328

In the meantime, Archie and Benny had switched off the lights and were lying on their beds in the darkness, but they couldn’t fall asleep.

Benny climbed out of bed and crossed the room to Archie’s bedside. “Archie, say. Do you know why Mommy doesn’t want to marry Daddy?” he asked as he shook Archie’s arm.

Archie sat up with a troubled look on his face. “I don’t know either.”

He paused for a beat before the corners of his lips curled into a smile. “But we found our sister! Isn’t that great?” he exclaimed as though to console Benny and himself.

Benny nodded fervently in agreement.

They had always thought Estella was their half-sister who shared a father with them. It was such a pleasant surprise to find out they shared the same parents.

That also meant their father had never cheated on their mother, and they were the ones who misunderstood Lucian from the start.

Their hearts soared with joy at the thought.

“But when will Mommy tell Daddy we’re also his children?”

Recalling how Lucian lifted them into his arms earlier, Benny couldn’t hide his disappointment. “I also want to be like Essie. I want to have a mommy and a daddy. I don’t want to call Daddy ‘Mr. Farwell’ anymore.”

Daddy could lift us up so high into the air.

Archie missed his father’s embrace as well but chose to put himself in his mother’s shoes. “Maybe Mommy has her own plans?”
