The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 1279

Mission To Remarry Chapter 1279

As Lucian drove back to the Farwell residence, he was still in a foul mood.

Mom really trusts Aubree too much! It’s so bad that she belittled Roxanne in such a manner!

Even until he arrived back at the manor, his expression remained as black as thunder.

Roxanne’s message came in when he alighted from the car.

The moment he saw her name on the screen, his expression eased. He tapped on the notification and took a look at the message.

It read: The kids are clamoring to go to the amusement park to have fun. When are you free?

Through the words alone, Lucian could sense her reluctance when she sent that message.

She probably only sent it because the kids were pestering her, and she had no other choice.

Even so, his mood improved by leaps and bounds. He was even gripped by the urge to tease her.

Lifting his hand, he tapped the screen a few times and replied: Does this count as you asking me out?

Right then, Roxanne was surrounded by Archie, Benny, and Estella.

“Has Mr. Farwell said anything yet, Mommy?”

“Is Mr. Farwell going to the amusement park with us? We want to go with him!”

Archie and Benny gazed at her earnestly.

Estella, on the other hand, had climbed onto the couch. Clinging onto Roxanne’s shoulders, she fixed her eyes on the phone screen in curiosity.

Meanwhile, Roxanne wore a conflicted expression on her face.

Gah! I’ve got no idea what they were thinking to suddenly make a fuss about going to the amusement park. On top of that, they kept saying that they wanted to go with Lucian and bugged me to ask the man. Worse still, they refused to sleep before receiving an answer from him!

Left with no other recourse, she could only text Lucian.

That was the first time she took the initiative to do so after they parted ways on a sour note.

At her reply, Lucian arched a brow and chuckled. He sent her a voice message. “If you’re asking me out, I naturally won’t decline.”

Seeing that it was a voice message, Roxanne felt the onset of a headache as she glanced at the children surrounding her.

A while later, she carefully converted it into text. Skimming her eyes over his reply, she nodded at the children. “He said okay.”

Immediately, all three children jumped for joy.

Forcibly feigning calmness, Roxanne ordered them upstairs to rest while she returned to her room helplessly.

She proceeded to stare at the voice message. In the end, she couldn’t help playing it.

With a tap from the tip of her finger, Lucian’s deep voice rang out in the room.

She merely listened to it once before she tossed her phone to the side, her face flaming.

I’ve already told him that it was the kids’ request! How could he be so shameless?
