    Chapter 223


    In Horington, Lucian sent Este to kindergarten earlier than usual the next morning after the unpleasa


    nt conversation with Roxanne the previous day.


    When he arrived at the kindergarten, there were only a few parents around the area.


    However, Roxanne was nowhere to be found.

    Este obviously wanted to see her. She held on tightly to Lucian‘s hand, refusing to go into the kinderg


    arten.


    Lucian frowned at her stubbornness. Even so, he could only stand outside the kindergarten together wit


    h her.


    It was after a long time that Archie and Benny showed up. This time, however, Roxanne was not the on


    e who came with them.


    When Lucian noticed that, his eyebrows furrowed even more as he walked up to Lysa while holding Est


    e‘s hand. “Where‘s Ms. Jarvis? Doesn‘t she usually drop Archie and Benny off at school?”


    Ever since they parted ways at the hospital, Lysa had


    never met Lucian again. She did not know that Roxanne and Lucian had got into an argument.


    Therefore, with the thought of them still having a good rtionship with


    each other, Lysa smiled and answered, “Ms. Jarvis has work today, so I came to drop them off.”


    Lucian‘s gaze darkened as he heard that.


    What a coincidence. We just met yesterday, and she has work today.Is she trying to avoid me?


    As Este did not get to see Roxanne, she was a little dejected. She tugged on Lucian‘s finger as she l


    ooked at him in worry.


    Lucian patted her on the head before looking back at Lysa. “Where did she go? When is sheing ba


    ck?”


    “I think she went to Bellridge. About her return… I‘m not sure when she wille back. But I don‘t think


    she will be away for long.”


    Bellridge?


    “Why did she go there?” Lucian asked in confusion.


    Archie and Benny, who were still holding onto Lysa, felt angry at how Lucian was interrogating them ab


    out their mother. He was about to marry someone else anyway.


    There was no reason for him to care so much about Roxanne.


    With that thought in their minds, Archie and Benny replied with straight faces, “Ir you want to know that


    badly, call Mommy and ask her yourself! We don‘t know either.”


    Even if they did know, they would never tell him.


    Lucian frowned as he looked down at Archie and Benny. He was confused by their furious expressions.


    Even after thinking for a long time, he could not figure out what he had done wrong to anger the twins s


    o much for them to have such prejudice against him.


    Or did Roxanne say something to them?


    Lucian‘s eyes darkened when he thought of that possibility.


    Although Lysa knew what Roxanne was doing, she hesitated when she noticed the twins‘ behavior. Afte


    they went there together.”


    Lucian‘s expression hardened. “Do you know that man?”


    Lysa shook her head. She only worked for Roxanne for a short time and had only seen a few of her frien


    educated gentleman. I think Ms. Jarvis addressed him as ‘Larry. They should have known each other fro


    Just as she finished speaking, Lysa suddenly felt a little pressured.


    Lucian‘s eyes had darkened suddenly as he thought about the call history on Roxanne‘s phone.


    There was only one Larry that he knew of–Larry Morrison. Moreover, Roxanne had given him a call


    yesterday morning.


    It could only be him.


    Once he realized that Roxanne had had a meal


    alone with Larry and had gone to Bellridge together with him, Lucian felt extremely displeased. He then
