The boys were exhilarated for nearly the whole day after seeing the announcement in the morning.
When night fell, Roxanne had just stepped into the house when Archie and Benny flung themselves at her in excitement. “Mommy!”
She was slightly perplexed by their gleeful demeanor. “What’s going on? Did something nice happen in the kindergarten?”
As soon as she ended her sentence, she glanced at Estella and was puzzled. If something did happen in the kindergarten, why isn’t Essie acting the same way as them?
Upon detecting his mother’s confusion, Archie said, “Didn’t you see the news on the internet?”
That confounded Roxanne even further. What news on the internet?
Excitedly, Benny added, “Mr. Farwell claimed that we’re his children, just like Essie!”
Did I hear that right? Lucian said Archie and Benny are his children? How’s that possible? Roxanne was stunned.
He could tell his mother was befuddled, so he grabbed the laptop, clicked on a public forum, and showed it to her.
Farwell Group’s announcement was still trending at the top of the website.
Roxanne clicked on the announcement and read its content.
When she finished perusing the announcement, she widened her eyes in shock. Lucian really did say that!
Roxanne had to admit that when Benny asked her that question, she felt the urge to reveal the whole truth to him. However, this matter had stayed hidden as a secret for so many years that she was afraid to tell him the truth. She didn’t know if the boys would blame her when they learned the truth. Also, she had no idea whether Lucian would reprimand her for selfishly keeping this a secret all these years.
“Okay then.” Since his mother didn’t want to talk about the matter, Benny sensibly changed the topic instead of pressing on. “Mr. Farwell’s saying that because he wants to help you, right?”
A wide, innocent smile returned to his face.
When Roxanne met his eyes, she nodded while wearing a complicated expression, for she couldn’t bear to disappoint the boy by shaking her head in denial again.
His smile grew even more sincere. “Mr. Farwell treats you well, Mommy! It will be so nice if he’s our daddy. You should accept his proposal, Mommy!”

The readers' comments on the novel: The Abandoned Wife (Lucian)
GREAT! Chapter 1970 was actually a repeat of Chapter 1770! And the same up to 1976! Now Ive missed 6 chapters and no idea what is happening! Plus all those sections that are badly typed then typed again and then again correctly……what a waste of “chapters”....
Wish there was more to the story, like how the triplets end up and if the twins are as smart as their older siblings. Beautiful story 😊...
Very best book out there, full of surprises and true love. Recommend to all....
