The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 664

Chapter 664 Matching Dresses

Roxanne did not really buy any new clothes for the children after returning to the country. The clothes that they had were basically bought by Madilyn.
Lucian was even less experienced in buying clothes for children. Looking at the various stores in the children’s clothing section and feeling somewhat overwhelmed, he simply let the children choose what they wanted.
“Ms. Jarvis!” Estella suddenly tugged on Roxanne’s sleeve. Perplexed, Roxanne trailed the girl’s line of sight and saw a store with simple decorations. Many of the clothes inside the store were sets of adult and children’s clothing.
Enter title…
Clearly, the store was selling matching outfits. Because they were in a high-end mall, a lot of the matching outfits inside were formal clothing.
It was the first time Estella had seen similar-looking clothing for adults and children. She was very excited about the prospect of wearing matching dresses with Roxanne. Roxanne, however, was a little hesitant.
She could more or less guess what the girl was thinking. However, she was already making a big concession to help pick the girl’s clothes. If she were to wear matching outfits with the girl, people would undoubtedly misunderstand their relationship.
“You’re a good girl, Essie. How about we look at other stores?” She leaned over and tried to divert Estella’s attention.
However, Estella refused to move her gaze away from that store. Her watery eyes were filled with hope.
It was also the first time Archie and Benny had seen that type of clothing. They glanced at Lucian with slight anticipation, but they didn’t have the courage to say it.
Seeing that the children refused to move, Roxanne looked at Lucian helplessly to seek his help.
Their eyes met for a short moment before he averted his gaze. Clearly, he wanted her to take care of the mess.
Roxanne’s head was starting to hurt.
Before she could say anything, Estella had already pulled her sleeve and led her to the shop.
With no other choice, Roxanne followed the girl inside. I hope she doesn’t make any outrageous requests.
“Welcome!” The employee had been watching them for a long time. Her eyes were filled with excitement when she saw them finally entering the shop.
They were the most good-looking family she had met ever since she started working there. If I can get their approval to take a photo of them together later and hang that picture at the entrance of the shop, our sales will undoubtedly soar!
At the thought of this, the employee became more and more welcoming toward them.
“You kids are so adorable! What type of clothes do you like? I can help you all try them out,” the employee offered as she smiled at the children.
The children were dazzled by the many choices available, as it was their first time picking out clothing for themselves.
Roxanne had wanted to pick the clothes for the children. However, when she thought about how the shop only sold matching outfits, her mind was abuzz with chaos and she lost the mood to shop. She could only leave the children to look around on their own.
Suddenly, Estella tugged her sleeve again.
Upon returning to her senses, Roxanne followed Estella’s line of sight, her nerves stretched taut.
She saw two dresses in front of them. One was a simple fishtail dress, its shoulder straps and hem of the skirt decorated with small diamonds. It looked simple and had an unobtrusive design. The other was a pure white princess dress that came in a smaller size. The hem of the skirt was embellished with pearls, making it look much more charming and adorable.
While there were differences between the two dresses, their overall style was similar enough that people would know that those two belonged to a matching set at a glance.
Estella looked at the dresses, then at Roxanne with anticipation written all over her face
