The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 253

Leaving The Country After Divorce Chapter 253

Chapter 253 When everyone had finally arrived, Pippa asked them to gather around before letting them board the bus according to the list of names compiledthe previous night.

Roxanne, Archie, and Benny were right at the end of the list.

The others in the class did not have siblings, so Roxanne was the only one who had two kids with her.

Hence, the arrangement was for them to sit in the last row.

After calling Archie's and Benny's names, Pippa looked up to confirm their presence when she spotted the personstanding next to Roxanne.

"Mr.Farwell, what are you...Is Estella going as well?"

Lucian nodded indifferently.

"Estella wants to join too." Hearing that, Pippa looked a little uncertain.

"But..." Essie has never joined this activity in the past.

That's why I thought she wouldn't be participating this time and didn't book their seats on the bus or the hotel room.

Lucian frowned.

"Is there a problem?"

Pippa looked at him apologetically.

"Seeing that you have never participated before this, I thought you wouldn't come this time too.

So, you might have to squeeze in with the other parents.

Of course, this is my oversight, and I'll take care of it."

When collecting the list of namesthe other day, he didn't inform me that Estella would be joining.

Neither did he say that she wouldn't be coming.

Well, I should've considered that and set aside two extra seats and a room just in case.

Now that the seating was already planned, she could not think of a way to free up two seats.

Lucian glanced toward the woman next to him.

"Ms.Jarvis has two children with her.

I wonder if she'd be willing to let me and Essie have one of her seats."

Roxanne had been preparing to get onto the bus with Archie and Benny,but when she heard him mention her name, she subconsciously halted her footsteps.

Thanks to Lucian's suggestion, Pippa turned toward Roxanne immediately.

"Ms.Jarvis, Archie and Benny have always gotten along well with Essie.

Do you think..." In other words, she's also hoping that I’ll give up one of my seats tohim.

But if that happens, well end up sitting together.

Roxanne turned and looked at Lucian, then suggested calmly, "Mr.Farwell, your driver should still be waiting outside, am I right? Why don't you get yourdriver to send you and Essie there? It'll also be more comfortable than taking the bus." "I have told the driver to go back first," he replied without batting an eye.

Roxanne pressed her thin lips together slightly at that, unable to come up with any other excuse to refuse.

Meanwhile, Pippa gazed at Roxanne with a pleading look in her eyes.

After a moment's silence, Roxanne finally relented.

"All right.I’ll sit with Mr.Farwell."

With that, she turned and boarded the bus.

Lucian followed her while holding Estella's hand.

There were five seats in the last row.
