Benny was hesitant. “Are we really not going to tell Mommy? What if Essie gets lost?” Archie furrowed his brows and answered, “Mommy hasn’t been in a good mood over the past couple of days. If she finds out about it, she’s going to be even more upset. Let’s not make her worry and go home first!”Upon listening to those words, Benny thought about how Roxanne had been over the past few days and nodded solemnly.The boys held hands and left the amusement park to hail a taxi.The taxi driver felt concerned when he saw two children hailing for a taxi. “Why are you kids on your own? Are you guys lost? Do you need me to call the police?”Archie shook his head. “We came out on our own! Our mommy is waiting for us at home. Please send us back, Sir!”The driver doubted those words, but he couldn’t bear to leave the kids by the side of the road, so he let them get into the car.The driver only felt more at ease and stepped on the gas after the kids told him their address accurately.The Farwell

The looks on the kids’ faces made Roxanne suspect something was amiss. However, she held herself back from investigating more, especially in Lucian’s presence.

How about you call him and find that out?”Upon deliberation, Roxanne decided to prioritize the matter of the medicinal herb supplier and dialed Jonathan’s number.I can still probe the little ones for more information during bedtime.With that, she headed to the study to make the phone call.Jonathan was caught off guard when he received the call, thinking that Lucian wanted Roxanne to urge him to hasten the process. He started giving her a detailed explanation. At the end of the conversation, he asked about her relationship with Lucian, and they chatted for a long while.Meanwhile, the children sensed that something was off and said in the sweetest voice, “Daddy, we’re heading to the garden to play.”A

They fooled around in the bathroom, and when Lucian finally slowed down, Roxanne was so tired that she was about to faint. Lucian carried her to the bed, and they continued going at it until the wee hours of the morning.Roxanne woke up feeling as though her body was on the verge of crumbling down.The space beside her was empty. She had no idea where Lucian had gone to.As she endured the pain and got up, the thought of sleeping in different rooms came to her mind once more.“You’re up?”Lucian suddenly opened the door and came in.That shocked her so much that her waist gave way, and she nearly toppled onto the ground.He strode over and pulled her into his arms before she fell.Roxanne was clad in a low-necked nightgown, which he had helped her change into yesterday.Her movement caused her collar to open slightly, revealing her cleavage along with the marks that Lucian had left the previous night.Just one look was enough to make him react.At first, Roxanne was relieved when he

A hint of amusement flashed across Lucian’s eyes when he saw how Roxanne wanted to deny it but was hesitant to speak. In a deep voice, he instructed the head of Neon Boutique, “Keep it simple. She doesn’t like anything too extravagant.” The person nodded repeatedly and even praised Roxanne, “Mrs. Farwell is a natural beauty. She’s gorgeous even without makeup. You two are simply a perfect match, Mr. Farwell!”Roxanne did not let the remark get to her.
