Chapter 1287


    Roxanne wanted to send them upstairs to rest when the doorbell suddenly rang.


    Archie and Benny thought it was Lucian returning with Este. They ran to open the door excitedly


    despite Roxanne stopping them.


    When they saw the person standing before them at the door, they were taken aback.


    “Where’s Roxanne?”


    Sonya nced at the children in disdain.


    Archie and Benny were disappointed when they were suddenly met with their grandmother’s overt


    dislike after just having a great time with Lucian. The smile on their faces gradually faded, reced by


    a wary expression.

    Sonya didn’t expect them to reply. She turned to look at the living room after asking the question and


    immediately saw Roxanne, who was walking over.


    As soon as Roxanne heard Sonya’s voice inside the house, she hurried outside out of concern for her


    children.


    “Mrs. Farwell, it’ste. Is something the matter?”


    She proceeded to shield the kids behind her back calmly before meeting Sonya’s eyes coolly.


    Sonya sized her up. “Let’s go in and talk.”


    A crease appeared between Roxanne’s brows. After a moment of hesitation, she stood aside for Sonya


    toe in.


    It’s just Sonya by herself. She will, at most, utter a few unpleasant words.


    If she were to be with Lucian, she would have to face Sonya sooner orter.


    When the kids saw that Roxanne had let Sonya in, they felt slightly nervous and worried that Sonya


    would bully her, just like Aubree and Frieda had.


    Roxanne watched Sonya sit on the couch and squatted down to look at Archie and Benny. “You guys


    head on upstairs and get some rest. I have some words to say to her.”


    Archie grabbed his mother’s hand with concern. “We want to apany you!”


    Benny nodded fervently.


    Roxanne felt warmth in her heart when she saw how worried the kids were. She gave them reassuring


    pats on their heads. “Don’t worry. We’re only talking. Nothing will happen. You guys have yed the


    entire day and must be tired. Go upstairs and wash up.”


    The two boys were still slightly reluctant.


    Feeling helpless, Roxanne turned to nce at Sonya.


    Seeing that Sonya was not looking at them, she promised the kids, “Even if we fight, she’s no match for


    me. You guys know that.”


    The boys recalled Roxanne defending herself against two people and finally nodded.


    Before they headed upstairs, the kids greeted Sonya politely, “Good night, Mrs. Farwell.”


    Sonya snorted and pretended as if she didn’t hear or see them.


    The kids felt disappointed but didn’t say anything. They turned around and headed upstairs.


    Roxanne walked into the living room after that. She brewed Sonya and herself a cup of coffee and sat


    on the couch beside her.


    “It’s just the two of us now. You don’t have to pretend anymore. I’m not falling for it!”


    Sonya nced at the cup of coffee Roxanne had ced in front of her. She had no intention of hiding


    her disdain for Roxanne.


    Roxanne replied calmly, “It’s basic courtesy. Even if it’s Ms. Pearson here, I’ll do the same. If you don’t


    like it, you don’t have to drink it.”


    Sonya trembled with rage upon seeing Roxanne’s nonchnt demeanor. She pushed the cup of coffee


    away and looked at Roxanne coldly. “Tell me, what does it take for you to stay away from my son? Is it


    money that you’re after? No matter the request, I’ll satisfy you if I can do it.”
