Chapter 1553 Did Daddy Take Care Of You
Roxanne was merely annoyed while watching the film earlier. Now that they exited the movie theater, she thought she was.
blowing things out of proportion earlier.
“No, it’s just that my upational disease is acting up. It’s good enough that the plot of the movie was well-defined. There’s no
need to dwell on such minor details.”
Lucian, however, still seemed a little apologetic. “I thought you''d like such genres. I''ll change to something else next time.”
As if a sudden thought popped into her head, Roxanne teased, “Then let’s watch something rted to trade wars next time. |
look forward to Mr. Farwell giving me a lesson too.”
Lucian’s eyes darkened upon seeing how she had taken the initiative to joke with him. Without hesitation, he agreed, “Sure. I''ll
apany you as long as you want.”
His decisiveness left Roxanne feeling somewhat guilty. “Well, forget it. Once is enough for such an unpleasant experience. Let’s
change to something unrted to our profession next time...”
At that, Lucian lifted his gaze and nced at her through the rearview mirror.
As their eyes met, they shared a smile.
It was already nine at night when they arrived back at the manor.
The two headed inside the mansion with multiple bags in their hands.
Meanwhile, the three kids, who had been home since Cayden sent them back earlier, had their minds focused on their gifts and
waited patiently for the entire night.ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
The moment Lucian and Roxanne stepped into the house, the kids flocked toward them excitedly.
“Daddy! Mommy!”
With Lucian carrying almost all of the bags, Roxanne, with her empty hands, bent down and rubbed the kids’ heads adoringly
with a smile. “Have you all been good at home? Did you all listen to Ms. Catalina?”
The kids eximed in unison, “Of course, we are! We even helped Ms. Catalina prepare meals!”
The smile on Roxanne’s face grew wider when she heard those words.
“Mommy, where are the presents for us?”
Benny stared at Roxanne expectantly, to which she lifted her head and directed her gaze toward Lucian.
In response, he gave Benny’s chubby cheeks a pinch before he gestured with his chin and remarked, “They''re on the couch. Go
and open them yourselves.”
Sounds of cheers erupted among the three kids, and they scampered toward the couch at once.
Within seconds, the stuff on the couch turned into a mess because of the kids’ rummaging.
Roxanne had no choice but to go over and help them out.
“Yay! It’s thetest Apple!”
Benny''s eyes were sparkling as he shared his joy with Archie enthusiastically.
At that point, Archie had also found his present. It was the same as Benny’s but in a different color.
Like Benny, Archie was also immensely thrilled. Not forgetting to express his gratitude, he turned behind to look at Lucian and
said, “Thank you, Daddy and Mommy!”
Lucian nodded lightly. “I’m d that you all like it.”
“Wow! So many dresses! | love them!” Este’s soft and adorable voice rang out from one side.
With an eyebrow quirked, Lucian looked at Este and said, “Mommy specially picked them for you.”
Este endearingly wrapped her arms around Roxanne’s neck and nted her lips on thetter''s cheek. “Thank you, Mommy! |
love Mommy the most!”
Este’s sweet and lovely behavior instantly made Roxanne’s heart melt into mush. “I love you too, Essie.”
“Mommy, did Daddy take good care of you today?” Este asked with a straight face, almost as though she was ready to
reprimand Lucian right away if Roxanne gave no as her answer.
To that, Roxanne and Lucian exchanged nces.
The man was undoubtedly amused. This little girl is now trying to poke her nose in my matters, huh?
Nheless, after thinking carefully about it, Lucian figured that Este was on Roxanne’s side and ultimately did not say
anything. Instead, he even put on a cooperative posture.
“He has been taking great care of me.”
The imposing presence of the father and daughter duo left Roxanne torn between amusement and exasperation. Without a
choice, she could only coax Este first while she reproachfully red at Lucian.
