Chapter 624 After Jack left, Roxanne got up to look for a vase for the roses. When she saw the roses, the emotions she had worked so hard to suppress came flooding back again.

With a slight frown, she went back to her desk with her mind in a mess. She then forced herself to focus on the information shown on the computer screen.

However, she couldn't retain much information even after staring at the screen for a long time. When it was time to get off work, Roxanne went home right away as she didn’t need to work overtime.

At the office, she couldn't keep her mind off the roses on her desk. The more she looked at them, the more messed up her mind was.

Upon arriving home and seeing that Lysa, Archie, and Benny weren't home yet, Roxanne decided to make dinner to clear her mind.

The moment she was done making dinner, the door to the mansion opened. Roxanne put the dishes on the dining table and looked at the door with a smile. “Darlings!” Happiness shone in Archie’s and Benny’s eyes when they saw that she was home.. “Mommy!” Lysa was surprised as well. “Why are your home so early today, Ms. Jarvis?” In the past, whenever Roxanne went to work, she would only reach home after the others. That day, however, not only did Roxannel get home earlier than them, but she had even made dinner.

Roxanne smiled nonchalantly and said, “I was free today, so | came back first.. Dinner is ready! Wash your hands and dig in while everything's still hot!” “Okay!” Archie and Benny ran to the bathroom to wash their hands. After that, they ran back to the dining table and took their seats.

While eating, Archie and Benny thought about Roxanne’s injury. “Mommy, how's your injury?” Roxanne smiled gently and answered, “I don't feel pain anymore. Once the scab is gone, I'll be good as new.” Archie and Benny nodded in relief. A few seconds later, the boys asked, “Mommy, since you got off work so early, why didn’t you go and fetch us?” Roxanne was taken aback. Her mind was filled with what Lucian had told her at noon. Hence, she didn't even think about fetching them.

Besides, she had been trying to avoid Lucian and Estella. However, she couldn't possibly tell the boys that.

After keeping mum for a few seconds, she came up with an excuse and said, “I haven't been to work in a long while, so | was rather drained after working for the whole day. That's why | didn’t fetch you guys. You guys don’t blame me, right?” Archie and Benny immediately shook their heads. “It's all right, Mommy. You should come home and rest if you're tired.” Roxanne heaved a sigh of relief and smiled at them.

Awhile later, the boys cast her a cautious glance and asked, “Mommy, could you send us tomorrow morning, then?” It had been a long while since Roxanne had picked up or dropped off the boys. Hence, they were slightly saddened when. they saw everyone else getting picked up and dropped off by their parents.

Roxanne had thought that it was because of Estella that they asked that question. After seeing their expressions, however, she knew it was something else. “Could you guys tell me why?” Archie and Benny exchanged glances and uttered softly, “The other kids have their daddy and mommy to them up...” The boys looked at Roxanne aggrievedly. Roxanne’s heart broke, and she felt a lump in her throat. | didn’t expect them to be so sensitive! She composed herself and answered, “Okay. I'll send you guys tomorrow.” Previous Chapter Next Chapter
