Chapter 952 We Looked Like A Family
After hearing Lucian’s explanation, Estella finally understood the situation and responded with an obedient nod.
“Did you have fun today?” Lucian stopped asking about her sickness and began talking about the camping trip in an
attempt to divert her attention.
As expected, the mention of the camping trip diverted Estella’s attention instantly. “I had tons of fun!”
Then, she curled up her fingers one by one, counting the events that happened that day, as if she was worried that
her father wouldn’t believe her simple remark. “Ms. Jarvis gifted me a lovely flower wreath, and we had a delicious
barbecue. Also, Benny and Archie gifted me some beautiful pebbles!”
It seemed like Estella had encountered endless joyful events that day. After recalling all the happy occasions she
had experienced that day, her stomachache didn’t seem to be so serious anymore.

Roxanne did a body check-up on the children again.
She had done some research on this bacterium before. Therefore, the traditional medicine she made was the right
treatment for the sickness, and the effect of the medicine was immediate.
After checking the children over and confirming that they had been cured, Roxanne finally felt a sense of relief. She
turned around and looked at the man next to her. “It’s late. Let’s go back now.”
Lucian nodded casually. Just when he was about to get up, Archie spoke sweetly while staring at the adults with
anticipation. “Mommy, can we not go home so soon? We haven’t stayed overnight in the tent yet!”
With that, he tugged on the corner of Roxanne’s clothing with one hand and pointed at the night sky with another.
“Look! The sky is so beautiful tonight!”
Upon facing her son’s hopeful gaze, Roxanne hesitated for a split second before becoming adamant again. “No, we
can’t stay here. Benny and Essie just recovered from their illness, so they must go home and rest. I’ll bring you
here again next time.”
Roxanne didn’t want to stay, not only because the children had just recovered from their sickness but also because
she didn’t want to face Lucian for an entire night.
Upon being rejected by Roxanne, Archie looked disappointed. He then turned around and shot Benny and Estella a
look.
Benny and Estella instantly understood Archie’s signal.
With a pitiful look, Estella tugged at Lucian’s expensive shirt. “Daddy, I’m so tired.”
Meanwhile, Benny frowned and pressed his palm on his stomach. “Mommy, I think my stomach still aches a little…”
The children had always been good at acting. Moreover, after all the incidents that happened that day, Roxanne
naturally wouldn’t overthink their remarks.

Roxanne wavered upon hearing that Benny’s stomach was still aching. Benny has been sick for the entire
afternoon. Now that he’s finally feeling better, it won’t be worth it if we travel on the bumpy mountain road and
make him ill again.
Bearing that thought in mind, she gave up on her initial decision and changed her mind. “If that’s the case, we shall
rest here for the night.”
Upon gaining her agreement, the children shifted their gazes to Lucian at the side.
Naturally, Lucian prioritized the children’s health and agreed to the suggestion nonchalantly.
Then, the two adults settled the three children in the tent.
Looking at the space that had just been emptied, a hint of hesitation appeared on Roxanne’s face. Besides the tent,
there seemed to be no other areas suitable for resting.
Yet, when she imagined Lucian sleeping next to her and the children, she felt slightly weirded out by the thought.
That will make us look like an actual family…
While she was contemplating what to do, Lucian’s deep voice sounded beside her ears. “You should get some rest.
I’ll go sleep in the car.” With that, he got up and left the tent.
