The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 819

Chapter 819 Abrupt Question

After the plain cake was completed, the children hastily spread the cream on it. Each child had their own idea, so Roxanne split the cake into three sections to let them decorate in their own way.

The children clearly thought of the task as something important, for they were cautious as they spread the cream.

Roxanne would glance at the time every once in a while. It was almost time for her to meet Jack, but the children were not done decorating yet.

However, she dared not urge them to hurry when she recalled the unhappy moment earlier. “I’m done!” Estella spoke first.

The two boys followed soon after as they cast a look that told Roxanne they were seeking praises from her.

Roxanne tamped down the urgency she felt and flashed them a smile. She then walked over to the table and glanced at the children’s masterpieces.

The boys’ sides were a mess while Estella’s side was not. Yet, the boys were still gleeful about it.

Roxanne had no choice but to compliment them despite what she actually thought about their work. “You’ve done it wonderfully, my darlings.”

The children beamed. Roxanne sneaked a glance at Lucian, who had been silent, before turning back to the children. “I’ll cut the cake now, all right?”

The children nodded fervently.

Roxanne cut the cake into six simple slices, then passed them to the children and kept one for herself. After that, she turned to look at the man beside her, who showed no signs of wanting to join them.

“Mr. Farwell,” Roxanne called out to him with a frown. “The cake is done. Come and give it a try.”

It was only after hearing her voice did Lucian turn to look at her and walk over.
