Estella, Benny, and Archie rejoiced in silence after hearing what Roxanne had to say. They then turned to stare at Lucian.

Lucian smiled. “What a shame. I'll take you guys there to eat next time.” The kids jumped for joy upon hearing that.

Roxanne felt warm and fuzzy as she watched the scene before her. She didn’t say anything anymore and went downstairs to prepare dinner. Next, Lucian took the three kids and followed closely behind.

Estella, Archie, and Benny surrounded Lucian and looked at him with faces full of anticipation in the living room.

“Mr. Farwell, when can you become our daddy?” Benny stared fixedly at Lucian.

Lucian caressed his head gently. “Soon. Don’t worry. | won't let anyone else have the chance to become your father.” Hearing that, Benny gave a small cheer.

Immediately, Estella chipped in, “Daddy, you must keep your promise this time!” Lucian once promised Estella he would make Roxanne her mother, but Lucian had a fallout with Roxanne. In the end, Aubree was the one who ended up looking after her.

The incident had left a lingering fear in her heart.

Lucian turned to face Estella apologetically. “I will. It was all my fault last time. But I've thought things through now, so it won't happen again.” Estella puffed her cheeks and stared at her father with a hint of resentment in her eyes.

“Mr. Farwell.” Archie stood at a corner and spoke in a serious tone. “Ms. Pearson and Ms. Queen will apologize to Mommy, right? Will they come and mess with Mommy again?” In fact, he had wanted to ask when Lucian would call off his engagement with Aubree but decided to hint at it instead.

After all, they were father and son so Lucian caught on to his meaning immediately. He replied grimly, “I won't let them off the hook this time. Don’t worry, guys. I'll take care of things on my end.” Archie nodded and turned to look in the direction of the kitchen.

Lucian followed his gaze to see Roxanne busying herself there. and his gaze softened.

“Go play on your own for a bit. I'll go and help your Mommy prepare dinner.’ With that, Lucian stood up and was about to make his way to the kitchen when he paused in his footsteps. “You guys can stay here. The kitchen is rather smoky.” The kids nodded and gave him a knowing smile, indicating that they would let Lucian spend some alone time with Roxanne this time around.

Lucian then turned around and went into the kitchen.

On the other hand, Roxanne’s mind was occupied with the series of events as she cooked.

Lucian’s words had caught her completely off guard.

She couldn't help but regret her actions now that she thought about it. How can | forgive him so easily? She cut the vegetables angrily and forcefully upon the thought.

Just as she was lost in her thoughts, Lucian’s voice sounded from behind her.

“What are you thinking about?” Lucian stared at her, feeling baffled.

She didn’t even notice | was standing behind her. | wonder what is on her mind right now.

Roxanne’s hands slipped as she was jolted back to her senses.

“Be careful!” Lucian quickly reached out and grabbed her hand, effectively stopping her from accidentally chopping her fingers off. He then guided her hand to put the knife down.

The both of them stood in silence as they recovered from the shock.
