Chapter 1069 Mischievous Roxanne’s thoughts were in disarray. Still, she defended the children against Jack’s accusation. “You're overthinking it, Mr. Damaris. There's no way these young children can do something like this. Besides, you're assuming they have the strength to pull this off, a strength that they may not possess.” Jack smiled indifferently. “It was just a guess. Besides, as | said, I'm not harboring any animosity toward them.

It'll be great if that’s not the case.” Roxanne forced a smile. After Jack left, she returned to the mansion with a complicated expression.

The children were huddled together, discussing Roxanne’s relationship with Jack and how they could force him to leave far away from her. They dispersed immediately when they saw Roxanne entering.

On her way back, she kept thinking about Jack’s words. Upon closing the door behind her, she sat next to the children.

“Mommy.” “Ms. Jarvis.” The children promptly gathered around her. Instead of responding to or looking at them, Roxanne lowered her eyes and asked, “Did you all know about Mr. Damaris’ punctured tire?” The children nodded innocently because that was the first thing Jack had mentioned when he returned to the house.

Roxanne studied the children’s expressions. “Do you know who did it, then?” The children’s faces stiffened.

Pursing their lips, the boys answered, “We may not like Mr. Damaris, but we wouldn't do something like that.” Suddenly, they recalled something. Their eyes glinted, and they quietly shielded Estella behind them.

“I don't like dishonest children. I'll give you all one more chance. If you don’t tellthe truth, Ill check the surveillance footage. I'll be very upset if | discover you have been lying.” Frowning, Archie grabbed his mother’s shirt. “We really didn’t do it, Mommy. Don’t check the surveillance footage.” Benny chimed in, “The three of us were together. We didn’t do it!” “I'm sorry. Please don’t be upset with me, Ms. Jarvis...” Estella piped up right then.

The girl panicked when she heard the last sentence Roxanne uttered because the only thing she was afraid of was getting resented by Roxanne.

Roxanne was stunned as she looked at Estella.

The girl's cheeks reddened as she teared up. She looked as though she would cry the next moment.

“It's all my fault. Please don’t be mad at Archie and Benny, Ms. Jarvis,” Estella sobbed. “I sneaked out and did it.

They don’t know anything about it. | know what | did wrong now, so please don’t hate me, Ms. Jarvis...” Roxanne was so astonished that she had no idea what to do. | suspected the boys to be behind this after what Jack told me. After all, they tend to be mischievous. | didn’t at all anticipate Essie to be responsible! My initial plan was to punish whoever was the culprit, but seeing how hard Essie is crying right now, | don’t think | can do it. Besides, | don’t have the right to either way.
