His And Her Marriage (Lucian and Roxanne) novel Chapter 691

Chapter 691

Lucian’s gaze darkened slightly at Archie’s reply.

Treating a child? Roxanne could be with either Jack or Larry.

Lucian clung to the last sliver of hope as he asked Archie and Benny, “Do you remember what the man looked like?”

The boys looked at each other. Benny sensibly remained silent and allowed Archie to take the lead.

The elder twin replied somberly, “The man looked very handsome and seemed to be on good terms with Mommy.”

He hoped it would remind Lucian that their mother had many admirers and spur him to step up his courtship.

Sadly, his plan backfired. He did not know Lucian and Roxanne’s relationship had grown tense because of Larry and Jack.

Archie’s reply only added to Lucian’s suspicions of Roxanne’s relationship with the two men.

He thought of asking the boys for more details but decided against it when he noticed their blank expressions. With his brows still knitted, Lucian asked, “How will you go to school later? Do you need me to give you a lift?”

The boys shook their heads. “Mommy already told the school we’re not coming in today.”

Lucian looked to Estella upon hearing the boys’ reply.

The young girl had been upset after learning that Roxanne had left with another man. In fact, she was taking it out on her father by giving him the cold shoulder.

I told Daddy I wanted to see Ms. Jarvis in the morning! Daddy took his sweet time and made us late. Now, Ms. Jarvis has left with someone else!

Estella even began doubting her father’s ability to woo Roxanne and give her the mother she

wanted.

After hanging up, Lucian instinctively pulled up Roxanne’s number on his phone and hesitated about calling her.

I should at least figure out who she’s with right now.

He quickly squashed the thought before it could take root in his mind.

After all, Roxanne had never appreciated his efforts of snooping around her life, and she had repeatedly explained the innocent nature of her relationship with Larry and Jack to him.

Lucian merely refused to believe her.

His suspicions had riled her up on many occasions.

If he called her now and interrogated her on her whereabouts, he would destroy his previous efforts to improve her impression of him.

Despite his frustration, Lucian reined in his jealousy and kept his phone.
