Leaving The Country After Divorce chapter 259


    Chapter 259 The woman who had osted Roxanne earlier quickly tamped down her rage when she saw Lucian. She sputtered, "Mr. Farwell."


    Lucian nodded coollyat her before approaching Roxanne.


    Softly, he asked, "What happened?" Roxanne''s gaze swept over the contrite woman.


    She thought of their conversation earlier and decided not to cause more trouble by telling thetruth.


    Instead, Roxanne shook her head and said, "Nothing.


    She came to say hi, but Essie doesn''t like strangers, so she was scared."


    After hearing herwords, Lucian stared at the unfamiliar woman suspiciously andmented, "Essie isn''t usually this timid." His imposing demeanor unsettled the woman, who lowered her head guiltily and replied, "I just thought Ms.


    Este looked adorable and wanted to stroke her hair.


    I didn''t think I would scare her.


    Please ept my deepest apologies." Lucian stared at the young girl in his arms, who was pouting silently while staring straight atRoxanne.


    Things obviously were not as simple as the woman had described.


    It was also clear that Roxanne would not tell him the truth.


    As he thought of how Roxanne was keeping her distance from him, Lucian''s displeasure grew, and it showed in his darkening gaze.


    He dered coldly, "I thought the parents of Essie''s ssmates should know about her condition.


    Since you seem utterly clueless, I hope you stay away from my daughter for the nexttwo days.


    Don''t frighten her again." The woman bit her lip in resentment.


    She wanted to use the next two days to grow closer to Lucian and Este, building a good rtionship with the Farwell family.


    Lucian''s hostile words had put a swift end to her n.This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    Nheless, she dared not voice her objections before a frosty-looking Lucian.


    Instead, she promised to heed his words before leaving with her child in tow.


    Este sniffled as the nasty woman departed.


    She broke free from her father''s arms and walked toward Roxanne, grabbing thetter''s skirt.


    Recalling how Este had rushed forward to protect her earlier, Roxanne was moved, and she stroked the young girl''s head fondly.


    Then, she held Este''s hand and asked, "I still don''t know where the boys are.


    Let''s look for them together, okay?" Este''s eyes lit up when she realized that they could still y hide-and-seek.


    She nodded her head in excitement, which brought a smile to Roxanne''s face.


    Roxanne led Este around the botanical garden to look for her sons.


    Archie and Benny had been raised overseas, and thanks to Roxanne''s busy lifestyle, the boys had grown up with a lot of freedom.


    Thus, they were more daringpared to most children their age and had run off to a much further ce to hide.


    However, Roxanne was not worried because she knew they would take care of their safety.


    Meanwhile, Lucian trailed Roxanne and Este.


    His gaze softened as he watched the two walking hand-in-hand.


    "Archie! Benny!" Este called out as she walked.


    It reminded Roxanne of how Este had replied to her question earlier, and she could not help but smile at the child''s cuteness.


    Suddenly, Este tugged on Roxanne''s hand and said, "Over here!"


    Roxanne followed Este through aplicated route and was surprised to see the boys hiding behind amanmade hill.


    "How did you know Archie and Benny were hiding here, Essie?" asked a surprised Roxanne.


    The boys always hid in the most creative ces, and Roxanne had always struggled to find them during their hide-and seek sessions.


    She never imagined Este would find them so easily.


    Este tilted her head and replied, "I don''t know.


    It was a guess." Roxanne did not think much of Este''s response and promptly believed her.
