The group soon left the hotel in the middle of the night and headed back to the city.
It was different from how they arrived. On the way home, Archie sat in the front passenger seat in order to allow Roxanne to sit
comfortably while Este and Benny apanied Roxanne in the back seat.
All three children kept staring at her injured foot, and Roxanne did not know whether to cry at that.

They finally arrived at the entrance of the mansion. With her hand on the car seat to support her, Roxanne carefully tried to get
out of the car. Just as she reached the door, a pair of big hands reached out and were ced on her waist, carrying her up.
Roxanne was stunned for a few seconds. However, after realizing that the kids had already seen this happen many times after
she got injured and probably wouldn''t think much of it, there was no need for her to reject Lucian. Therefore, she allowed him to
carry her into the mansion.
Just as they entered, Lysa walked over to meet them. When she saw that Roxanne was in Lucian‘s arms, her eyes were filled
with surprise. “What''s going on? Are you sick, Ms. Jarvis?”Belongs ? to N?velDrama.Org.
The children rushed to exin, “Mommy hurt her foot.”
Upon hearing that, Lysa looked at Roxanne’s feet with worry evident in her eyes. She noticed that a shoe was dangling off one of
thetter''s feel and there was gauze wrapped around it.
Lysa‘s face was full of worry as she helped Lucian to ce Roxanne down on the couch. “How did you injure yourself so badly?”
she asked in concern.
Roxanne responded with aforting smile. “I identally scraped my foot on a seashell. It''s not a big deal. It''ll heal after
resting at home for two days.”
Regardless, the worried expression on Lysa‘s face did not fade. “It''s fortunate that you were there with Ms. Jarvis, Mr. Farwell.
Thank you for sending her back even though it''s sote,” she thanked Lucian.
Lucian nodded and replied, “Please take good care of her these two days. Try not to let her walk, and keep her wound dry.”
Lysa agreed at once.
Aweird feeling rose in Roxanne’s heart when she noticed that Lucian was acting like the head of the house. “It''s gettingte. You
should take Essie home soon, Mr. Farwell. I''ll thank you properly for everything you did today,” she piped up.
Her words triggered a grim expression on Lucian‘s face.
Even though they had been interacting a lot these two days, Roxanne was still cold to him.
He had already gone to such lengths for her, and yet she was still trying to push him as far away as possible.

Este cast her gaze downward. She carefully tugged onto Roxanne’s shirt and said. “Ms.rvis. | want to stay with you,” she
said with a pleading expression.
She was really worried about Roxanne‘s wound.
Roxanne’s heart softened at the sight, but she still stayed firm on her decision. “Be good, Essie. It''ste. Go home with Daddy.”
“But you''re hurt...” Este looked up at her with tears welling in her eyes.
Roxanne’s heart ached terribly.
She knew that the young girl was incredibly worried for her, but she knew that she had to maintain a distance from both Lucian
and Este.
Before Roxanne could even reply, Este sniffled. She was about to burst into tears soon.
“If you''re worried about me, you cane and visit me another day, Essie.” After a few seconds of silence, Roxanne still caved
in.
Este looked at her with doubtful eyes. “Really? | cane?” she questioned with a sob.
Asorrowful feeling filled Roxanne‘s heart as she patted Este on her head. “Yes,” she said firmly.
Hearing Roxanne''‘s promise, Este longingly nodded and went to hold Lucian‘s hand.
