The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 505

Chapter 505

The two kids were waiting for Roxanne by the time she got home that night.

They ran up to her and stared cautiously at her face the moment she came in through the door.

“What’s the matter?” Roxanne asked with a confused frown.

Benny exchanged glances with Archie as he asked in his usual adorable voice, “Are you unhappy, Mommy?”

Roxanne felt confused. “What makes you say that?”

“You requested for a change in teams earlier at school, but it didn’t happen…” Benny replied nervously with his lips pursed.

Roxanne felt a little stressed when she recalled the stage play that she would be in. “I’m not upset, Benny. Now, be a good boy and go get ready for dinner.”

Still worried about her, the kids waited until she had taken her coat off before sitting down at the dining table.

Roxanne saw a mountain of food on her plate when she came back from washing her hands. Archie and Benny were still topping her plate up with food like worker ants feeding their queen.

“All right, that’s enough. I’m not angry or anything, you two. I really do feel bad for Essie,” she said with a chuckle as she ran forward to stop them.

Seeing as the kids were still a little unconvinced, Roxanne flashed them a reassuring smile as she put some of the food back. “I can’t finish all of this by myself, you know?”

The kids stopped trying to top her plate up, but still glanced at her worriedly from time to time.

Not only did Roxanne fail to change teams, but Pippa had also stated that there would be no change in the plot of the stage play.

They knew how much Roxanne wanted to stay away from Lucian, so they were worried that she only agreed to attend the activity because of them.
