Chapter 424
Lucian could tell at one glance that Roxanne was putting up a tough act. When he saw that she almost fell, he stretched out his arm to catch her.
And coincidentally, Roxanne‘s hand grabbed his,
Both of them stopped and did not move an inch more.
Knowing that she had accidentally exposed herself, Roxanne held Lucian‘s arm stiffly and calmed herself down. Then she slowly straightened her back and apologized as if nothing had happened. “I‘m sorry. I… I missed a step.”
Having said that, she wanted to withdraw her hand.
Lucian‘s eye darkened when he knew what she wanted to do. Before she could do so, he authoritatively pressed her hand on his shoulder.
Roxanne was slightly taken aback by his gesture.
“You‘re already in a bad shape. Stop acting tough in front of me.” Frowning, Lucian wrapped his arm around her waist to support her.

Instantly, Roxanne felt much better.
Shortly after, she tried to keep her distance from him because there were too many people at the airport. She thought that their actions might cause others to misunderstand their relationship.
“I do think that carrying you is easier,” he muttered.
When Roxanne heard that, she widened her eyes in disbelief and met his gaze.
Lucian stared at her indifferently as if he was threatening her to oblige. Go ahead and try escaping my embrace. There‘s only one way to find out if I‘ll make a huge ruckus and carry you out of the airport,
The both of them were at a stalemate for several seconds. Roxanne clenched her teeth and averted her gaze. Subsequently, she relaxed her body and leaned against his arm.
Cautiously and slowly, Lucian helped her toward the exit.
Exiting the airport, Roxanne struggled a few times. “Thank you, Mr. Farwell. I‘m fine. You can let go of me now.”
Lucian continued to support her and insisted, “I‘ll take you home.”
It‘s no wonder Mr. Farwell went there personally even though it was just a petty matter. He even stayed there for so long. I guess I‘ve got my answer now.

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 😊...
