Chapter 1810


    “Lucian, Roxanne, I''ll be heading back first. I''lle back to apany the kids another day.”


    As Lucian was in the study and Roxanne was in the bathroom, Sonya went to the second floor and


    called out to them.


    There was, however, no reply even after a few seconds.


    A bitter smile spread across Sonya''s face. Yeah, I deserved it.


    Surprisingly, Roxanne, who had just finished helping Este wash her hair, rushed to the courtyard


    while drying her hands.


    “Mrs. Farwell, it''ste; drive slower. You can take Archie and Benny out to y when youe over


    next time.” Roxanne''s eyes reflected her sincerity, and it was clear those were not words she said out


    of formalities.


    Sonya was momentarily stunned before she nodded and replied with a smile, “Sure. I''lle over


    again.”


    After sending Sonya off, Roxanne returned to the second floor and took out the bath towels and


    pajamas for Archie and Benny.


    Just then, Lucian walked out from the study and reached out to wipe the sweat away from Roxanne''s


    forehead. “Darling, you''ve worked hard!”


    “I only help Essie get cleaned up. That''s nothing much. Essie won''t let me help her when she grows a


    little older. I don''t have many chances left!”


    “No. I''m talking about Mom. Thank you for being able to treat her so politely.”

    Lucian''s deep gaze resembled the mesmerizing night sky, drawing Roxanne''s attention toward him.


    “Frankly speaking, I still can''t forgive her. It''s just that I ought to set a good example for the kids since


    she treats them well. But there might still be opportunities. Perhaps she''ll be an amazing grandmother


    in the future!”


    Roxanne had finally said her innermost thoughts aloud.


    Lucian wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her into his embrace to hug her tightly.


    “Daddy, Mommy, you two are secretly hugging again. I want one too! I want a hug too!” Este''s baby


    voice suddenly rang out, and she squeezed to fit herself between the two adults.


    Meanwhile, Sonya had just arrived back at the Farwell residence.


    Coincidentally, Elias had also just returned after ying chess with his friends. Upon learning from the


    butler that Sonya went to visit the kids, he felt somewhat relieved.


    To him, he believed that Sonya was not a mean person by nature. Instead, she was merely bad-


    tempered, narrow-minded, and stubborn.


    He deemed that he had to be med for his wife''s shorings. It was because he never openly


    confronted Sonya''s ws that gave rise to her not mending her ways and eventually spiraling out of


    control.


    “Did you see the kids? Have you apologized to them?” Lifting his gaze, Elias noticed that Sonya


    seemed to have calmed down.


    Sonya nodded in response. “I saw them. Archie and Benny love the toys I bought for them, and that''s


    all thanks to Cayden.”


    Sonya briefly shared with Elias about the situation earlier.


    Then, she fell silent and remained seated, waiting for Elias to add fuel to the fire or mock her.


    Surprisingly, instead of doing that, Elias looked at her with a gentle gaze and a faint smile. “I''ll go and


    look for Lucian tomorrow and ask him not to chase you to Epea. But at the same time, you have to


    correct your mistakes from now on. You have done too many hurtful things to Roxanne. I''m afraid it


    won''t be easy for her to forgive you. Do you have the patience?”


    Sonya remained in a daze and did not respond for a long while.


    Momentster, she abruptly broke the silence. “I realized I have a bad temper all these years, but


    you''ve always been tolerant. Thank you so much, Elias.” Her gaze was filled with warmth and


    tenderness as she spoke.


    Without saying a word, Elias reached out his hand and grabbed hers tightly.


    Right then, a car arrived at the courtyard outside. Shortly after the engine was turned off, they heard


    Elektra''s voice.


    “Mr. Farwell, Mrs. Farwell, I''m here. My parents just returned from their hometown. They brought back


    some specialties and said they wanted to give them to you two.” Elektra opened the car trunk, picked


    up many bags, and headed into the house.


    A doubtful look crossed Elias'' face as he stood up and walked over to wee her in.


    It looks like something''s up, huh? Otherwise, she wouldn''t have to make up an excuse toe over


    here thiste at night.


    Worried that Elektra would notice her puffy eyes, Sonya hastily responded with a smile, “It''s not safe to


    drive at this hour. You could''vee over tomorrow. What a coincidence. I was nning to use a facial


    mask.”


    With that said, she turned around and went into her room. When she came out again, the facial mask


    was already on her face to conceal everything.
