    Chapter 201


    Colby noticed that Roxanne was scrolling through her Twitter feed for a while and asked out of


    curiosity, “Are there any hot topics that are worth keeping up with?”


    Hearing that, Roxanne gathered her thoughts and gave him a nonchnt smile. “Nothing much. I‘m


    just looking at some gossip.”


    Based on her current rtionship with Lucian, his news could only be taken as gossip.


    Colby wanted to strike up a casual conversation with her and continued asking, “What is the gossip


    about? Did something happen to a celebrity recently?”


    Roxanne didn‘t expect that he would probe further. She was momentarily stunned and answered


    vaguely, “It‘s not a celebrity. I forgot their names and just clicked on it casually.”


    Once she finished speaking, she then changed the topic as if nothing had happened and didn‘t wait for


    Colby‘s reply. “The recent project is quite demanding, isn‘t it? I‘m already feeling tired from it.”


    Colby raised his brows subtly and went along with her change in topic.


    Roxanne got off work early that day, and as Colby sent her there, she reached the kindergarten just


    when they were done for the day. Archie and Benny scrambled out of the doors.


    Têxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    At a nce, Roxanne immediately found Archie and Benny among the swarm of children and went


    over to bring them back.


    In the crowd, Este looked at her pitifully.


    When Roxanne met her gaze, she felt a pang of inexplicable guilt in her heart.


    However, when she recalled the news that she had just seen, she genuinely didn‘t want to face Lucian


    again.


    Thus, she could only harden her heart and bend down to touch Este‘s head, saying, “Essie, can you


    wait for Daddy with Ms. Ward? I sull have some things to do, so I have to go back quickly.”


    Once she finished her words, she didn‘t dare to look into Este‘s eyes again. She hurriedly got up as if


    she was running away and brought Archie and Benny into Colby‘s car.


    Archie and Benny sull had some impression of Colby, and they greeted him politely when they got into


    the car, “Hello, Mr. Galloway.”


    Colby gave them a warm smile. He started the car and slowly headed toward Roxanne‘s house.


    As Archie and Benny sat in the back row, they looked at Colby‘s face through the rearview mirror and


    fell into deep thought.


    Previously, they thought that Lucian wasn‘t bad and made Roxanne choose again.


    But now that Lucian was getting married to someone else, they thought that Colby wasn‘t bad


    too.


    On the other hand, when Cayden saw the news, he recognized the woman in the photo at first nce.


    After he saw the headlines, he immediately contacted Lucian.


    “Mr. Farwell, this news… Do you want us to make a rification on it?”


    At that moment, Lucian was busy with his work. Hearing Cayden‘s words, he looked up at the phone


    that Cayden passed to him.


    When he saw the contents on the screen, his brows furrowed slightly.


    He didn‘t even realize that they had been photographed.


    In the picture, the two of them indeed seemed like a loving couple.


    When he saw thements below it, Lucian bit his lower lip.


    After not receiving a reply for some time, Cayden was puzzled and urged him, “Mr. Farwell?”


    Lucian retracted his gaze from the phone and returned Cayden his phone indifferently. “There‘s no


    need for that. Just leave it.”


    If he made a rification, it would inevitably drag Roxanne into the mess.


    Recently, Roxanne had been wanting to cut all ties with him. Therefore, she certainly would not want to


    be involved in such a scandal.


    Hearing that, Cayden hesitated for a moment before agreeing to it. Seeing that Lucian had no other


    orders after waiting for a while, he quietly retreated from the otlice,


    When he heard the door to the oflice being gradually closed, Lucian paused his work, got up, and


    headed to the floor–to–ceiling window.


    By then, Roxanne should have seen the news as well. However, he didn‘t know how she would react to


    it.
