The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 532

Chapter 532

When Estella saw Roxanne confirming a date with Lucian, she knew that Roxanne had agreed to go together, and her face lit up with excitement. Although there were still some tears in her eyes, she was smiling brightly.

Seeing that the children were so excited, Roxanne felt relieved and looked at Lucian indifferently.

Lucian said in a deep voice, “How about next weekend? Will you be free, Ms. Jarvis?”

Roxanne nodded, and the two didn’t say anything more.

After bidding Estella goodbye, Roxanne took Archie and Benny back home.

On the way home, the children called out to Roxanne, “Mommy.”

Roxanne had yet to get over the incident during the play. When she heard the children’s voices, she took a few seconds to respond. “What’s wrong?”

Benny was about to speak, but feeling a little timid, he looked at Archie.

Meeting Benny’s eyes, Archie nodded and asked, “Mommy, do you not want to go on

a vacation with Mr. Farwell?”

Having witnessed the kiss and noticed Roxanne’s hesitation, they could more or less guess her thoughts.

Roxanne didn’t know how to respond. Hence, she asked in return, “Why would you

say so?”

Archie and Benny looked at each other, and Archie answered, “You’ve been avoiding Mr. Farwell, and you promised to only chauffeur us until the end of the anniversary celebration. Is that not because you want to stay away from Mr. Farwell? When Essie invited us, you were hesitant as well.”

Roxanne looked at the children in the backseat through the rearview mirror and felt distressed.

Lysa welcomed their return with a smile. “How was the play today?”

Roxanne, who had finally put the play behind her, became moody again when Lysa brought up the topic.

Archie and Benny glanced at Roxanne cautiously, knowing that she was disturbed by the kiss on the stage.

Seeing that they did not answer for a long time, Lysa asked in concern, “What’s wrong? Did it not go well?”

With that, she noticed the contorted expression on their faces. Just as she wanted to comfort them, the boys beamed. “We won the first prize!”

Lysa couldn’t help but feel puzzled when she heard the children.

They won the first prize, but what’s with their expressions?Roxanne, especially, seemed a little unhappy.

Afraid that Lysa would ask about the play again, the children quickly pushed her to the living room. “Ms. Lane, we’re hungry!”

Lysa quickly nodded and led them to the dining room.
