When Lucian saw that Roxanne was going to retreat, his gaze swept across Estella. “Do you really have the heart to decline? Essie dreams about having a mother. Could you bear to keep her waiting? You’ve already been absent from her life for six long years!”His words left Roxanne totally baffled.She looked down at Estella in shock, wondering what Lucian meant.Is it what I think it is?The two kids had yet to realize what Lucian was talking about and simply looked at the two adults innocently.Roxanne took a deep breath and forced herself to stay calm. Then, she turned to Lucian and asked, “What are you talking about? What do you mean when you said I’ve been absent from Essie’s life for six long years? I’m just…”I was just an outsider to Essie. Why did he say that? The person who has missed out on watching Essie grow up should be her biological mother, no?“Lucian, what has gotten into you?”Sonya never wanted Roxanne to be a part of the Farwell family.Furthermore, since Estella h

“Okay. I’ll wait for you.” Lucian suppressed his disappointment and said, “You can take your time to think it over. There’s no rush. I’m willing to wait for as long as you need.”He then glanced at the diamond ring in Roxanne’s hand. “I hope you can keep the ring. Put it on when you’ve thought it through. I’ll know your answer by then.”Roxanne was touched when she heard that. The guilt she felt grew more intense as she said, “Thank you.”She found it difficult to tell Lucian the reason she rejected him.It wasn’t because she did not believe him but because she felt she had wronged Archie and Benny.Cayden heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Roxanne keep the ring.Looks like Mr. Farwell still stands a chance, and a good chance at that!However, Sonya’s expression darkened.I knew it! She’s leaving my son hanging! I’d never let someone like her become a part of the Farwell family!Just as Sonya was thinking about how to make Roxanne give up, the latter suddenly walked toward her.She

In the meantime, Lucian was driving Roxanne and the kids back to Roxanne’s place. Roxanne felt uneasy throughout the whole ride, for she a*sumed the man had something to say because he was driving unusually slowly. However, as the car slowly came to a stop in front of the mansion, Lucian still remained silent. The woman’s anxiousness was replaced with confusion.In contrast, the kids were chattering and having fun at the back. When the car stopped, they didn’t cease playing as they hopped off the vehicle and chased each other around in the yard.As soon as the kids were out of hearing range, Roxanne asked, “Do you have something to say to me?”She thought Lucian felt uncomfortable talking to her in front of the children.Yet, the man merely smiled at her. “I just wanted to stay with you guys for a little longer, that’s all.”He gazed at Roxanne and continued with a sigh, “I don’t know when you’ll give me an answer, and I’m worried that you’ll run away again. You won’t run away again,

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 I 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! I 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 Ro

“Mr. Farwell!” At Farwell Group, the staff in charge of publishing comments on the internet noticed a shift in the trend of the public’s opinion, so he hurriedly went to seek further instruction from Lucian.Lucian glanced at the screen and furrowed his brows.He saw the internet was flooded with speculations about his relationship with Roxanne and criticisms toward Aubree.“We didn’t do this. We merely released some news about the Pearson family. This statement mentioning the original spouse came out of nowhere. Should we attempt to sway the public opinion again?” the employee hurriedly explained.Lucian rejected the suggestion. “That’s not needed. Just let it be. Find out where the statement about the original spouse stemmed from.”The employee replied guiltily, “I investigated the source, but the information was leaked from a virtual IP address that does not correspond to a physical network interface…”Hearing that, Lucian narrowed his eyes and was immediately reminded of the prev

“Ah!” cried out Aubree as she violently threw the phone in her hand away. “I’ll ensure that b*tch, Roxanne, regrets the day she was born! She must be the one responsible. She has to be!” With that, Aubree was about to rush out when Samuel stopped her in her tracks.“Idiot! Have you forgotten about what happened at the Farwell residence yesterday? Do you actually think it’s a good idea to confront Roxanne now?” rebuked Samuel.Aubree seemed even madder after listening to that. “You’re my father! Can you really sit by and do nothing while those people cursed at me online? Since our family has nothing left to lose, I’m going to drag that b*tch down to the abyss with me!”At that point, Samuel could no longer hold his anger in, so he slapped his daughter so hard that she fell into her bed. “You’re the reason our family is ruined, yet you show no remorse! In fact, you seem more than ready to repeat your mistakes. Now you listen to me well. I don’t care if you have to kneel before Lucian o

Frieda could just imagine Aubree’s face after the latter read the comments even though they were only speaking over the phone. She said dryly, “You should take a look for yourself, Aubree…”Aubree turned on the speakerphone and opened her social media app grimly.Someone commented: Aubree is shameless. How dare she claim to be Mr. Farwell’s first crush when she’s really just a homewrecker? If he truly had feelings for her, why would he have married his original spouse?Another seconded: That’s right. Whatever feelings Mr. Farwell had for his first crush would have been gone by now after six long years. Moreover, Mr. Farwell acts as if he doesn’t even know her. If you ask me, his original spouse is his first crush. Aubree is just a nobody.The comments were scathing and merciless, leaving no room for doubt about the netizens’ disdain toward Aubree.Aubree had to muster up all her energy to resist the urge to throw her phone across the room.“Roxanne, that b*tch!” she cursed through gr

Aubree chuckled in delight as the public showed disdain for Roxanne. “Roxanne, you b*tch, I’m going to let you get a taste of your own medicine.”Early in the morning that day, Sonya read the comments on the internet.She was furious when she found out that Lucian had sent Roxanne to the hospital and had even spent the night there taking care of her.She could still recall the incident vividly. Roxanne had just returned to the country not long ago, and Lucian had insisted on taking care of her.Sonya read through the comments furiously.Everyone had different opinions regarding the matter. Public opinion was swayed.Sonya’s face darkened when she saw a comment about how well Lucian and Roxanne complimented each other.They’re a good match? Since when has she ever been worthy of my son? On what grounds? Certainly not her looks, nor her two illegitimate children. Speaking of which, I’ve yet to find out who fathered those two children.Just as she was about to blow up, the public’s view

Coming down the stairs, Aubree spotted her father surrounded by the other relatives pointing their fingers at him and questioning him. “What are you guys doing?” Aubree asked after seeing the scene.In the entire Pearson family, their family was the superior one; they had never received such treatment.Hearing her voice, everyone turned to look at her.“You still have the guts to question us, huh? You know, had you not offended Lucian, our family would not have been like this right now. Old Mr. Pearson established Pearson Group all by himself. It’s not something you can toy with! You’re the one who messed up, but why do we have to bear the consequences as well?”Aubree appeared in a wretched state as her cheek was still swollen, and Samuel’s handprint did not fade.Aubree was so infuriated that her hand started trembling. “Oh, we’re talking about that now, are we? Didn’t all of you also bask in the glory when Pearson Group was at its peak?”If not for the marriage contract between Lu

Her face contorted with anger when she saw Farwell Group’s new announcement trending. On top of that, the announcement clearly stated it was Aubree’s personality that caused the annulment of the engagement.How could Lucian do this to me?A netizen commented: I’ve met Aubree before. Sure enough, she’s not all that great. She always looks down on others as if we’re inferior to her.Another comment read: I heard Aubree even scolded the daughter of the Farwell family and called her Little Mute. Back then, I thought I’d gotten the wrong person because they hadn’t called off their engagement yet. Now that I see it, it’s definitely Aubree. No wonder Mr. Farwell wants to renounce the engagement.The more Aubree read, the darker her expression grew.Everyone, no matter their identity, was stepping out to criticize her.Hmph! What do they know? It’s all Roxanne’s doing! Who knows what she said to Lucian? It’s clearly that b*tch’s fault. What right do they have to criticize me?Aubree was seei

Aubree’s joy did not last long, for the tables had turned that evening. Farwell Group made an announcement again, clearly stating the reason for the annulment of the engagement between the Farwell and the Pearson family. At the same time, it also contained a warning for the people who contributed to the discussions on the internet.One specific line in the announcement caused an uproar on the internet. It read: The Farwell and the Pearson family have annulled their engagement due to Aubree’s personality that is unfit for the role of Mr. Lucian Farwell’s wife.Someone wrote: The Farwell family must’ve toned down their words. They’re a big family, after all. I bet Aubree has done something disgusting behind their backs. Farwell Group is already sparing her dignity by saying it’s a personality problem.Another wrote: So, who’s the problem now? Aubree or Roxanne?Someone replied: Do you still need to ask that? Didn’t Farwell Group explain everything clearly in the announcement? It’s Aubr

Lucian narrowed his eyes dangerously as he scanned the inside of the restaurant. When the others saw Lucian had gone looking for the man to settle the scores, they retracted their gazes guiltily.Meanwhile, the man was so scared he did not dare breathe loudly in front of Lucian.Truth was, the man had no ill intentions.He had only read the discussion on the internet and gotten curious about their relationship.In fact, when the man saw Roxanne bringing along two sons of unknown origins, he figured Lucian would have some grudge against her.To the man’s astonishment, Lucian seemed to be truly in love with Roxanne.Moreover, Roxanne did not look like a crafty person as described in the rumors.Lucian suddenly thought of something and warned the man, “I don’t care what you think, but you’d better keep your eyes to yourself and not interrupt our meal.” After that, he instructed the waiter to move them to a different private room.“What happened?”Uneasiness swirled within Roxanne’s hear

It was her first photograph with the three children. More importantly, it was after learning that Estella was the baby whom she had thought died prematurely.“Thank you,” she said gratefully.Looking at her trembling hands, Lucian pulled her into his arms. “If you want to thank me, then reconsider my proposal. I was lying to you. I can’t wait much longer. Six years is long enough. I don’t want to keep waiting.”Roxanne lowered her head without answering. Her eyes brimmed with guilt.Having detected something in her silence, Lucian released her with a sigh and gave her a kind smile. “It’s all right. I can wait a little longer. Besides, I’m sure you wouldn’t bear to keep me waiting too long.”Roxanne looked away, not knowing what to say.Meanwhile, having tired themselves out, the children came running over to the adults.“Mommy, what were you looking at earlier?”Benny could tell that something was wrong between their parents, so he hurriedly tried to change the subject.

Lucian watched as she gazed at the sea silently. His eyes grew dark as guilt rose in his heart. She must’ve stood here alone six years ago. What could she be thinking of? Was she blaming me?He slowly approached her, his eyes revealing the guilt and affection that had been building up inside of him for the past six years.Roxanne turned over her shoulder to realize that there was someone standing beside her. She was suddenly transported back in time, and the man’s presence filled the void that had been left in her life.“A penny for your thoughts.” Lucian suddenly spoke when he noticed the change in her expression.Roxanne snapped out of her reverie and flashed a nonchalant smile. “It’s nothing. The ocean looks somewhat different today, that’s all.”That would explain why she felt different when she had been here before.Lucian looked at her silently before suddenly reaching out to pull her into his arms.Behind him, the children were taken aback.They quickly recalled how they had i

Roxanne and Estella waited at the beach for some time before Lucian and the boys climbed out of the car. The sight of the boys wearing rainbow-colored T-shirts surprised Roxanne to no end.Lucian preferred wearing plain-colored clothes, so she had a*sumed he’d buy monochrome clothes without any pattern for the boys.She had no idea he’d buy them such vibrant-looking clothes.I wonder when he bought these clothes. They seem to fit the boys well.“When did you buy the clothes?” Roxanne asked when they came over to join her.Recalling Benny’s earlier comment that she was in a foul mood, Lucian regarded her silently for a moment before responding, “I actually bought them on my way here. I’ve been planning to bring you here one day, and I thought it best to be prepared, and it seems I made the right choice as they came in handy.”His words merely served to fuel Roxanne’s suspicion.Never mind if Lucian showed up suddenly. I can’t believe he even prepared clothes for them.She looked down

“Because…” Archie and Benny couldn’t just ignore their sister’s pleading look. In the end, Benny made up a reason. “Maybe it’s because Mommy wants to test Mr. Farwell further! After all, they didn’t seem happy when they separated back then.”Estella furrowed her eyebrows, perplexed. I know I don’t know about Daddy and Mommy’s matters as much as they do, but I think that’s the case based on what Daddy said when he proposed to Mommy. What happened when they initially separated? Why did Mommy abandon me?When Benny saw that his answer removed the smile on his sister’s face after he ruined his mother’s mood, he was in full panic mode. “I-It’s going to be fine! As long as Mr. Farwell performs well, Mommy will forgive him eventually and accept his proposal!”Still, Estella remained worried. “But what if Daddy feels he has lost all hope after Mommy rejects him this time? What do we do, then?”I helped Daddy chase after Mommy, so I know he’ll overthink things. He would get angry and stop pur

“Be careful!” Roxanne’s cheeks tinged pink when she thought about the accident she had had the last time she was here.The three children waved their hands at her without looking back and dashed toward the waves.Roxanne quickened her pace and kept up with her children.“Mommy, you’re so pretty!”Estella grabbed Roxanne’s hand and snuggled up to her. Her little face lit up in awe.There had been a firework event during their last vacation to the hot spring resort. As a result, the beach was overcrowded with people, and the children didn’t get the chance to experience playing on the beach.It was quiet all around at that moment, save for the sounds of waves crashing against the beach.Despite their young age and high energy levels, the children couldn’t help but want to quiet down and relax in the face of the calming waves.Roxanne patted their heads and said, “There are not many people here, and it’s really quiet. That’s why I come here quite often.” Then she took a glance at the sur
