They wanted to give Lucian a present, but their expression seemed nervous.After a long while, Roxanne reminded, “Mr. Farwell, please accept it, seeing that it’s the boys’ sweet thought.”Roxanne cast a complex gaze at the boys.She was beginning to suspect if the boys had found out about their identities.Lucian finally snapped out of his thoughts and took the shell from the boy’s hand at Roxanne’s reminder.He opened the shell and saw a pair of exquisite-looking cuff links made of tiny shells sitting in the middle.So they worked so hard earlier to make this pair of cuff links for me?A pang hit Lucian’s heart, and he asked, “Why would you give me a present?”The boys exchanged a glance, and Benny dropped his head shyly while Archie answered, “This is our gratitude for your help in finding Benny yesterday and stopping him from doing something dangerous on the yacht today.”Understanding dawned on Lucian, and a smile tugged at the corners of his lips. “I’ll accept this gift, then. Th

Hearing Archie’s words, Lucian’s face instantly darkened. “Where is she? Take us there!” Archie instantly ran toward the beach.With Estella in his arms, Lucian followed in long strides behind the boy.Roxanne was still worried about Archie, who had run off alone. After a while, she gently said to Benny, “Help me up, Benny. Let’s go look for Archie.”However, the latter shook his head without hesitation. “You’re hurt, Mommy. You can’t move. Archie will bring someone over soon.”Roxanne’s eyebrows furrowed slightly at Benny’s reaction. “I’m worried for Archie. Although I know that both of you are more than capable to take care of yourselves, I’ll still be worried,” she patiently tried to convince him.Listening to his mother’s words, Benny seemed to hesitate.He did not want Roxanne’s injury to worsen, but he also did not want her to worry for them.Just as Benny was contemplating listening to his mother and helping her up, Archie’s voice could be heard from afar.“Mommy! Mommy! I’ve

The group soon left the hotel in the middle of the night and headed back to the city. It was different from how they arrived. On the way home, Archie sat in the front pa*senger seat in order to allow Roxanne to sit comfortably while Estella and Benny accompanied Roxanne in the back seat.All three children kept staring at her injured foot, and Roxanne did not know whether to laugh or cry at that.They finally arrived at the entrance of the mansion. With her hand on the car seat to support her, Roxanne carefully tried to get out of the car. Just as she reached the door, a pair of big hands reached out and were placed on her waist, carrying her up.Roxanne was stunned for a few seconds. However, after realizing that the kids had already seen this happen many times after she got injured and probably wouldn’t think much of it, there was no need for her to reject Lucian. Therefore, she allowed him to carry her into the mansion.Just as they entered, Lysa walked over to meet them. When she

The atmosphere in the car was tense.No one said anything for the rest of the journey back to the Farwell residence.Estella was in a gloomy mood the entire time. She did not even wait for Lucian to carry her into the house. The young girl had gotten out of the car and walked to the mansion alone.Staring at her tiny silhouette, Lucian frowned. It seemed that Estella’s condition was worsening.Upon realizing that, Lucian’s heart fell.Roxanne’s attitude to Estella had a huge impact on Estella’s mental health.Lucian was not going to let Roxanne become distant from them because of Estella.Lucian followed Estella into the house. Just as he entered, Estella was already sitting on the couch with her head hung low. Catalina comforted her with a worried look on her face, but Estella refused to speak.When Catalina noticed Lucian walking, she looked at him and asked, “What’s with Ms. Estella, Mr. Farwell?”Just as she spoke, she realized that Lucian had a similar expression on his face.Cat

After lunch, Roxanne freshened up and requested Lysa to accompany her to the meeting. When they arrived, they noticed Jack was already waiting for them by a table next to a window.When he saw Roxanne had to walk with the support of another person, he went up to her. “Are you injured? Why didn’t you tell me in the morning?”Roxanne responded with a faint smile. “It’s just a minor injury. I can still walk.”Jack frowned after taking a glance at the leg that was hanging mid-air. He then helped her to her seat.Lysa sat outside and waited by the door.After taking her seat, Roxanne noticed the stack of documents in front of her. Her tone instantly got serious. “I believe we have a lot of things to go through today, so let’s not waste time anymore and dive right in.”Jack nodded in agreement. He was a big fan of a career woman like Roxanne.“We have long finalized the details of the collaboration between the two research institutes. We had to delay the process because of the Damaris fami
