Chapter 1350


    At those words, Roxanne looked at the children in the distance who were having the time of their lives.


    I wonder if it''s the feeling of security Lucian brings that makes the children appear much happier than


    they used to be.

    She could not bear to spoil their mood, seeing as the children did not have many outings.


    Roxanne steeled herself to reject Lucian''s suggestion. “I''m not unwell. My clothes just aren''t the best fit


    to get physical in.”


    Lucian merely fixed her with a prating gaze. “Where? Are they too loose?”


    Seizing the opportunity, Roxanne nodded.


    His voice, carrying hints of displeasure, sounded a momentter. “It shouldn''t preclude you from


    ying with the children if it is loose fitting. I felt it when I hugged you earlier, and it fits you just fine.”


    Roxanne''s cheeks grew redder than ever. She red helplessly up at him.


    My words could not be clearer, yet he still doubts me. Does he want me to spell it out?


    Noticing the fury in the woman''s gaze, Lucian gave her an inscrutable smile and leaned in close to her.


    Before she could retreat, he was already in front of her. “Did I buy the undergarments in the wrong


    size?” he asked softly, sweeping his gaze over her bust.


    Instinctively, Roxanne covered them with her hands.


    His low chuckle sounded again.


    “I bought this ording to an order you ced six years ago, but I''d forgotten you bore children. My


    mistake.”


    Roxanne felt her ears scorch. She turned her head silently away from his hot breath at her ear.


    Lucian''s voice still found its mark. “I can''t take all the me. After all, you never gave me a chance to


    take the measurements. I would remember it after measuring it once, and I won''t buy the wrong size


    again.”


    Roxanne was outraged by his shameless words.


    After six years apart, he has be more shameless. This isn''t the Lucian I know.


    Her heartbeat quickened in her consternation. She was so nervous that she dared not examine


    Lucian''s expression.


    To her relief, he did not press her.


    Seeing her panic, he averted his gaze with augh and reached for his phone from his pocket. “Since


    you''re restricted from running around, do you want to take a look at the pictures I took?”


    Like a startled rabbit, Roxanne was looking around for a ce to hide in embarrassment. As a result,


    she did not hear what he said.


    Lucian frowned slightly but remained patient with her. “The kids enjoy having you around.”


    The resolve in Roxanne''s gaze wavered at the mention of the children.


    “Essie looks like you when she smiles. Here.”


    Lucian scrolled through the photographs, making brief remarks about each while observing Roxanne''s


    expression.


    At every mention of the children, her gaze would shift over slightly.


    “Let me see.”


    Atst, Roxanne gave in to the temptation of seeing the photograph where Este''s smile resembled


    hers and leaned closer to Lucian.


    Basking in the satisfaction of gaining her trust, Lucian did notplicate matters for her any further


    and ced the phone in her hand.


    Roxanne took it eagerly, fixing her eyes on the group photo with the children, and she felt a surge of


    gratitude.
