Chapter 1404


    Upon hearing Benny’s words, Roxanne felt embarrassed again after having just regained herposure.


    Echoing through her ear, Lucian’s deep voice carried a hint of amusement. “Take a look. Do you like it? | wasn’t really sure what


    to buy and the sales attendant rmended me another design. However, | think this one suits you better.”


    Roxanne seized upon the opportunity to avert her gaze from his.


    Turning around, she checked the rearview mirror to see how she looked.


    She was greeted by the sight of a tinum ne circling her neck. Hanging between her corbones was a minimalistic


    round pendant that was covered with crushed diamonds. Sitting right in the center, it made her look as if her corbones were


    sparkling. It was a sight that bedazzled her.


    Lucian, who had somehow walked up behind her, asked anxiously, “Do you like it?”


    Upon regaining her senses, Roxanne turned around and smile. “It’s beautiful. | love it, Mr. Far—"


    She almost addressed him as Mr. Farwell out of habit, but the thought of their currently ambiguous rtionship made her change


    her mind. “Thank you. | appreciate it very much.”


    As what she almost called him by didn’t escape his notice, Lucian’s gaze darkened although he refrained frommenting.


    Meanwhile, the children surrounded Roxanne and gasped in awe.


    “Mommy, you’re gorgeous!”


    “The ne really suits you. In fact, it looks even more beautiful on you!”Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g


    “Mr. Farwell has a sharp eye indeed!”


    The praise they showered on her caused Roxanne to blush. Trying hard to hide her emotions, she looked down at the children


    and smiled. “You haven''t opened the presents | bought you, have you? Let’s go inside and do it.”


    ted by the mention of presents, the children followed Roxanne into the mansion.


    After the children settled down on the sofa to open their presents, jubnt cheers echoed in the living room from time to time.


    When she saw how happy the children looked, Roxanne beamed with satisfaction.


    At that moment, a warm and familial atmosphere filled the living room.


    Standing by the side and watching Roxanne interacting happily with the children while wearing the ne he gave her, Lucian


    couldn’t help but imagine it to be a proposal ring that Roxanne was wearing on her finger.


    | wonder how long does Roxanne want me to wait...


    Just as he was lost in his thoughts, the children’s voices suddenly rang out beside his ear.


    “Daddy, look! I’m wearing the same outfit as Archie and Benny!”


    Este’s voice brimmed with excitement.


    When Lucian looked down, he noticed all three of them were wearing the T-shirts and shorts Roxanne bought them.


    She had chosen vibrant colors on purpose so that both boys and girls would look equally good in them.


    Dressed in the same outfits, the children looked up at Lucian.


    In that instant, he suddenly felt as if all three of them resembled each other.


    Nheless, the feeling quickly dissipated when they turned their attention away.


    “Daddy, help us take a picture!”


    Only Este maintained her gaze as she tugged at his sleeve. “I want to take a picture!”


    When Lucian raised Este, he seldom took pictures of her. Hence, the only pictures at home were mostly taken by Sonya when


    she visited.


    However, ever since Este began to spend time with Roxanne, thetter’s habit of taking pictures rubbed off on her. Thus, she


    would often wish to have her picture taken for the sake of memory.


    Since it was a simple task, Lucian had no reason to refuse. Whipping out his phone, he did his duty as the cameraman.
