Chapter 209
“Are you in a bad mood, Mommy?” Archie and Benny looked at her with concern.
Roxanne was taken aback. She thought she had hidden her emotions well in front of her kids, but they saw right through her ruse.
“Why did you ask?” she asked nonchalantly, glancing at them in the rearview mirror.
Archie‘s face creased in bewilderment. “You ignored Essie just now. Did Mr. Farwell annoy you?”
The slightly unsettled feeling gnawed at the pit of her stomach at the mention of Lucian.
She must have been really close with him during that period of time for Archie to have misunderstood
Benny added, “Essie almost cried.”
Roxanne drew her brows together in a frown, and her heart wrenched as she could only imagine Estella‘s pitiable face without seeing it for herself.
She wished she could apologize to Estella.
Aubree‘s words further solidified her inclination to cut all ties with Lucian.
She didn‘t want to interfere with the kids‘ friendship, but she really wanted to limit her contact with Lucian.
Roxanne stole a casual peek at them and said, “Come out earlier after your classes end. I‘ll be busy for the time being, so Ms. Lane will pick you up.”
Archie and Benny didn‘t get the desired answer and exchanged puzzled glances before nodding obediently.
The doorbell rang shortly after Roxanne led them inside the house. She froze before turning to answer the door.

GREAT! Chapter 1970 was actually a repeat of Chapter 1770! And the same up to 1976! Now Ive missed 6 chapters and no idea what is happening! Plus all those sections that are badly typed then typed again and then again correctly……what a waste of “chapters”....
Wish there was more to the story, like how the triplets end up and if the twins are as smart as their older siblings. Beautiful story 😊...
Very best book out there, full of surprises and true love. Recommend to all....
