Even though Roxanne and Estella had been by each other's side a lot recently, their feelings toward each other were much different from before after the truth was revealed.

Roxanne had so much she wanted to tell her lost daughter. Similarly, Estella had a lot she wanted to say to her mother.

The two lay in bed and chatted endlessly, never running out of topics to talk to each other about.

“I drew a lot of pictures of me and my mommy, but none of those mommies in the pictures were as pretty as you.” Estella looked at Roxanne with glee in her eyes, her smile so sweet and lovely that it softened Roxanne’s heart. “Now that | found you, can you draw pictures with me, Mommy?” Roxanne’s heart nearly melted into a puddle at her question. “Sure. Let's do everything together!” Estella’s eyes sparkled with delight. “Archie and Benny too! | want to do everything with them too!” Roxanne promised with a laugh, “Archie and Benny will be by your side too.” “Mommy,” Estella suddenly whispered into Roxanne’s ear.

Playing along with the little girl, Roxanne put on a curious expression. “What's wrong?” Estella said softly, “Can you tell me who is Archie’s and Benny's daddy?” Even though Mommy and Daddy are already together, | still wish they can progress to the next stage. | know this is something that's been bothering Daddy.

The smile on Roxanne’s face stiffened ever so slightly when she heard Estella’s question.

Archie’s and Benny's father... How am | supposed to tell Essie that she and the boys share the same parents? If | tell her the truth, will she ask why | refused to say yes to Lucian even though we are an actual family in the first place? Despite knowing that Estella wouldn't have thought of that question with her current level of intellect, Roxanne still couldn't help worrying about it.

“Archie’s and Benny’s daddy... You'll know who he is in the future.” Roxanne gently caressed Estella’s head, her tone laced with guilt.

Disappointment crossed Estella’s face when she didn't get the answer she wanted.

But no matter who their father is, we will only share one daddy in the future! With that thought in mind, Estella was once again filled with joy. “Then can they please come over so we could all sleep together?” she pleaded with an adorable voice.

Roxanne was about to decline the little girl's request when the latter burrowed deeper into her embrace. “I feel bad for them. | have a daddy and a mommy, but they only have a mommy.” Roxanne was instantly guilt-ridden when Estella mentioned the absence of the boys’ father.

As penitence got the better of her, she sighed internally and decided to make an exception just this one time.

“Go on. Get your brothers to come over.” Roxanne watched Estella put on her pajama and led her to the boys’ room.

In the boys’ room, Archie and Benny were sitting on Archie’s bed with looks of frustration on their faces.

When they heard the knock on their door, they quickly concealed their troubled expressions before letting Roxanne enter.

“You boys haven't slept yet? Good. Come over to our room, and let's sleep together.” Roxanne was confused when she saw the boys sitting on Archie’s bed but didn’t comment on it. “But you have to put on your pajamas.” Elation immediately replaced the boys’ gloomy mood. They put on cute cow onesies before hopping to Roxanne’s room in excitement.

The three kids got even more worked up than they already were as they gathered together.

Roxanne was already exhausted, but the children were still up and playing.

She regretted her decision of letting the kids sleep in the same room.

But since they're already here, | can’t go back on my word. All | can do is stay up with them.

The children finally fell asleep at midnight.
