Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 1531

After finishing his breakfast, Elias smiled at them before getting up to leave, probably to meet Sonya.

The three children were not done eating. Hence, Roxanne stayed back and accompanied them.

Roxanne attempted to communicate with her kids and said, “In the future, try your best not to argue with Mrs. Farwell and do your best to make her like you.”

However, she soon realized that she might be asking too much of her children.

After all, even she couldn't bear listening to Sonya's overbearing remarks sometimes. How could she expect her children to put up with it?

“We understand.” Archie nodded. “Don't worry, Mommy. Benny just thought that Mrs. Farwell had gone overboard just now and couldn't help himself. Besides, he was right.”

Benny nodded matter-of-factly when he saw that Archie was siding with him. “Since Mrs. Farwell doesn't like us addressing her as Grandma, we won't do it!”

Estella nodded seriously as well, showing her support for her brothers.

Seeing how determined her children were, Roxanne couldn't help but smile before turning to look at Estella seriously.

“Essie, your brothers are allowed to not address her like that, but not you.”

The little girl nodded obediently.

Roxanne knew that her boys had done nothing wrong. So, she said nothing and continued to have breakfast with them.

Lucian's call came in right then.

Roxanne took out her phone and looked at the caller ID before instinctively glancing at her children.

The three of them knew what Roxanne was getting at and continued to eat breakfast silently as if they could hear nothing.

Roxanne immediately lowered the volume of her speaker and steered the topic. “If you have nothing else, I think that's it for now. The kids are not done eating yet.”

Roxanne immediately lowered the volume of her speaker and steered the topic. “If you have nothing else, I think that's it for now. The kids are not done eating yet.”

Sensing her undertones, Lucian let out a chortle. “I just want to know what you think after last night, and I'm wondering if you will run back home when I'm not around.”

Last night, he restrained himself in every possible way because he was afraid of scaring Roxanne and making her retreat into her shell.

He continued to worry after arriving at the office this morning. Hence, he quickly called her after the meeting was done.

Roxanne appeared hesitant when answering him. “I... I do want to go back, but it's not because of what happened last night.”

The first part of her reply made him furrow his brows. However, he was relieved after hearing that it was not because of last night. Perplexed, he asked, “Why, then?”

Roxanne cast a glance at Archie and Benny. She got up and headed toward the living room. In a low voice, she explained, “Mrs. Farwell doesn't like Archie and Benny, and my presence is only going to make matters worse. I just hope that they can get along well. So, I don't think it's appropriate for me to continue staying at the manor.”
