Chapter 924 Preparations
Roxanne led Archie and Benny back into the living room after watching Lucian’s car leave. Both boys
looked at Roxanne with concerned expressions on their faces.
Mommy has been in a bad mood for the past few days. She was in an even fouler mood right after she
came out of the study. I’m curious about what Daddy said to Mommy just now.
Benny had never been good at hiding his emotions, so he immediately asked, “Mommy, what did you
say to Mr. Farwell?”
Upon hearing his question, Roxanne’s eyes darkened as she lowered her gaze toward him.
Both Archie and Benny merely stared at her, as if they were hinting at the fact that she couldn’t fool
them.
As she met their gazes, Roxanne could only sigh helplessly and replied evasively, “We talked about
some work stuff.”
However, Benny continued to probe relentlessly, “But you seemed really upset, Mommy.”
In the past, they had never seen Roxanne acting like that because of work-rted matters.

It was as if she was being cautious of something.
Archie and Benny exchanged nces, their eyes filled with confusion.
What did Daddy actually do to make Mommy so wary of him?
Roxanne knew her exnation wouldn’t fool those two, so she could only exin the matter to them
briefly, “Mr. Farwell wanted to work with me, but I refused his offer.”
Both boys still didn’t get the answer they wanted to hear. Instead, they furrowed their brows and
wanted to probe further.
However, Roxanne wasn’t keen on exining further. She simply added, “It’s inevitable to have
conflicts regarding work-rted matters. This is perfectly normal. You don’t have to worry too much.”
It sounded like the same thing Lucian had told Este.
Even if they didn’t believe her words, both Archie and Benny had to admit that what Roxanne said was
the truth.
Nevertheless, the boys had no idea whether it was simply work-rted or not.
Knowing their mother was unwilling to say anything further, Archie and Benny kept quiet obediently.
Roxanne patted their heads and changed the topic immediately. “We’re going camping tomorrow, but
we haven’t prepared much yet. Let’s hurry up and get ready for our trip tomorrow, okay?”
Fortunately, the mention of their camping trip immediately diverted Archie and Benny’s attention.
They hadn’t been camping outside ever since they returned from abroad. Furthermore, with Este
joining them, the boys were very much looking forward to it.
After Roxanne brought Archie and Benny upstairs, they began packing their own stuff for the trip.
Since the boys had gone on camping trips with Roxanne when they were abroad, they knew exactly
what to bring.
Soon, all three of them were finally done packing up.
After carefully going through everything they packed, Roxanne kept having the feeling that something
was missing.
“I wonder if Essie prepared everything yet…” Archie mumbled to himself.
Roxanne snapped back to her senses and realized what she had forgotten.
If I’m not mistaken, this should be the very first time Este’s going on a camping trip. Judging by
Lucian’s personality, he probably doesn’t know much about camping. I don’t know if he will prepare
anything for Este. I should prepare more for her in case that happens.
With that thought in mind, Roxanne started putting away some of the things they had already packed,
leaving some empty space in their storage box.
“Mommy?” Benny looked at Roxanne with a puzzled expression.
Roxanne smiled as she asked, “Why don’t we prepare some stuff for Essie too?”
Hearing that, Archie and Benny did not have any objections and proceeded to pack some stuff.
As Este had stayed at their ce for some time, the boys seemed to know her preferences well.
It wasn’t long before they had filled the empty space with snacks and toys that Este liked.
It was then Roxanne finally felt they had finished packing. With Lysa’s help, she packed everything into
the trunk before heading upstairs and urging the boys to get some rest.
