Chapter 1531 The Reason

After finishing his breakfast, Elias smiled at them before getting up to leave, probably to meet Sonya.

The three children were not done eating. Hence, Roxanne stayed back and accompanied them.

Roxanne attempted to communicate with her kids and said, “In the future, try your best not to argue with Mrs.

Farwell and do your best to make her like you.”

However, she soon realized that she might be asking too much of her children.

After all, even she couldn’t bear listening to Sonya’s overbearing remarks sometimes. How could she expect her

children to put up with it?

“We understand.” Archie nodded. “Don’t worry, Mommy. Benny just thought that Mrs. Farwell had gone overboard

just now and couldn’t help himself. Besides, he was right.”

Benny nodded matter-of-factly when he saw that Archie was siding with him. “Since Mrs. Farwell doesn’t like us

addressing her as Grandma, we won’t do it!”

Estella nodded seriously as well, showing her support for her brothers.

Seeing how determined her children were, Roxanne couldn’t help but smile before turning to look at Estella

seriously.

“Essie, your brothers are allowed to not address her like that, but not you.”

The little girl nodded obediently.

Roxanne knew that her boys had done nothing wrong. So, she said nothing and continued to have breakfast with

them.

Lucian’s call came in right then.

Roxanne took out her phone and looked at the caller ID before instinctively glancing at her children.

The three of them knew what Roxanne was getting at and continued to eat breakfast silently as if they could hear

nothing.

Noticing their reaction, Roxanne didn’t have the heart to keep it from them and took the call right before them.

“You’re up?”

Lucian’s voice was laced with concern and a hint of a smile.

Roxanne’s face went crimson. However, realizing that her children were right in front of her, she tried to stay cool

and said, “We’re having our breakfast.”

Lucian let out a soft sigh. “I’m sorry. I had wanted to accompany you in the morning, but there’s an urgent task at

work, and I had no other choice but to come over here first.”

Afterward, he shifted his attention to Roxanne’s health and asked, “How are you feeling? Do you feel unwell

anywhere?”

Roxanne decided to keep her condition from him and begrudgingly said, “No. I’m all right.”

How could she say that her back almost broke in front of her children?

Lucian appeared to be quite disappointed by the answer. “Really? It seems like I’ve got to work harder.”

Roxanne immediately lowered the volume of her speaker and steered the topic. “If you have nothing else, I think

that’s it for now. The kids are not done eating yet.”

Sensing her undertones, Lucian let out a chortle. “I just want to know what you think after last night, and I’m

wondering if you will run back home when I’m not around.”

Last night, he restrained himself in every possible way because he was afraid of scaring Roxanne and making her

retreat into her shell.

He continued to worry after arriving at the office this morning. Hence, he quickly called her after the meeting was

done.

Roxanne appeared hesitant when answering him. “I… I do want to go back, but it’s not because of what happened

last night.”

The first part of her reply made him furrow his brows. However, he was relieved after hearing that it was not

because of last night. Perplexed, he asked, “Why, then?”

Roxanne cast a glance at Archie and Benny. She got up and headed toward the living room. In a low voice, she

explained, “Mrs. Farwell doesn’t like Archie and Benny, and my presence is only going to make matters worse. I just

hope that they can get along well. So, I don’t think it’s appropriate for me to continue staying at the manor.”
