The abandoned Wife Entwined Path
At the sight of Estella throwing herself into Lucian’s arms, Roxanne stopped awkwardly and held back the two boys running behind her.“Daddy!” Unaware of the change in Roxanne’s mood, Estella tugged ecstatically at Lucian’s sleeve. “Let’s play hide and seek for a while before going home!”Lowering his head to gaze at Estella, Lucian then shifted his attention to Roxanne with an indiscernible look in his eyes.When she met his gaze, Roxanne felt a sudden sense of guilt.She had just reprimanded the brothers for running wildly with Estella. But now, she was the one doing it instead.After an awkward silence, Lucian remarked in a deep voice, “It’s getting late. I’ll be taking Essie home now.”He had barely finished when he turned toward Estella and said, “We have to go now, but we’ll come back again tomorrow.”Despite puffing her cheeks up to express her unwillingness, Estella recognized that she had had a lot of fun that evening already. After a brief hesitation, she demonstrated her ac
The abandoned Wife Rekindling Heart
Having heard Lucian’s words, the frowning Roxanne felt a strong sense of resistance within her.Lucian’s deep voice rang out again. “If we don’t rehearse it, please don’t accuse me of taking advantage of you when I kiss you by mistake.”In that moment, Roxanne couldn’t believe her ears.Nevertheless, she did find the scenario Lucian had conjured up to be entirely possible.“Besides, neither of us are actors by profession. If we don’t practice, how would we know where we should stand to make the kiss realistic?” Lucian, who could sense her wavering, pressed on calmly, causing her to feel ambivalent about the matter.She admitted that he had a point. However, given that the anniversary celebration was still a few days away, she would have to be in close proximity to him for consecutive days if they were to rehearse the scene.In the midst of her hesitation, Estella’s squeaky voice piped up, “Why are we rehearsing everything but this scene?”She proceeded to give Roxanne a quizzical yet
The abandoned Wife Costumes and Unspoken Questions
After several days of rehearsal, it was finally Friday.When Roxanne went to pick the little ones up in the evening, she saw the children carrying a pile of clothes in their arms. Excitement was written all over their faces.“Look, Mommy! These are our costumes!” Benny showed her the costumes as Roxanne walked toward him.Roxanne nodded gently in response and took over the outfits from the boys.Meanwhile, Estella was also waiting at one side while carrying two pairs of costumes—one for her and one for Lucian.Estella had always been physically weak. That was why she seemed to have difficulties carrying the costumes and a bag on her back.Once Roxanne took over the costumes from Benny and Archie, the boys ran to her and helped her with the clothes.Estella gratefully pa*sed the garments to the boys and thanked them.The three children then lined up in front of Roxanne, waiting for her to lead them to the car.In the last couple of days, Roxanne would always take them back together.

Estella was going to say something else, but Roxanne interrupted her, “It’s late. We have to get up early tomorrow. Let’s hurry up and wash up and go to bed.”It was obvious that Roxanne didn’t want to continue with the topic.Estella’s eyes turned dark, but she listened to Roxanne obediently and said nothing else.She slept with Roxanne. As she rarely had the chance to sleep with Roxanne, she slept soundly that night.Roxanne, however, couldn’t help but recall Estella’s innocent question.What did Lucian do wrong?There was only one answer that she could think of to that question. Other than the fact that he didn’t like her, he didn’t seem to have done anything else to hurt her.However, that alone was enough to make Roxanne keep a distance from him.Besides, Sonya and Aubree had also been keeping an eye on her.Roxanne did not sleep well that night as thoughts flooded her mind, and she woke up very early the next day.Meanwhile, Estella was still snuggled next to Roxanne, sleeping s
The abandoned Wife Enchanted Performances and Childhood Wonder
Chloe, who was holding onto Ca*sandra’s hand, suddenly saw that Archie and Benny were eating something. She asked curiously, “Archie, Benny, what are you two eating?”“Candy.” Archie and Benny opened their mouths to show her.After that, they touched their pockets and looked at Chloe apologetically. “We’ve finished ours. Otherwise, we could have shared two with you.”The disappointment was written all over Chloe’s face when she heard that.Roxanne’s heart softened when she saw how sad Chloe looked. She remembered the candies inside Estella’s pocket and called out to Estella, “Essie, can you give two candies to Chloe?”Estella turned at the sound of Roxanne’s voice and nodded, trying to take a few candies from her pocket.However, as she was being carried by Lucian, she couldn’t move her hands much. Besides, the pocket of the witch costume was deep. After trying for a long time and still couldn’t reach the candies, she looked at Lucian for help.Lucian did not seem to notice Estella’s
The abandoned Wife Unscripted Enchantment
It was dimly lit below the stage.Lucian could feel the children smiling beside him. Feeling curious, he gazed in their direction. The three children were whispering to each other about who-knows-what with secretive looks on their faces. Every so often, they would cover their mouths to muffle out their soft giggles.From beside them, Roxanne was looking at the children with a gentle smile on her face.It was quite a tender moment.However, the moment her eyes met Lucian’s, her loving smile turned stiff ever so slightly.Roxanne lowered her gaze and composed herself before turning her face away so that Lucian could only see her side profile.Lucian’s gaze darkened. With his brows knitted tightly together, he, too, turned his gaze away.They were the last ones to perform.When the second-last performance was about to come to an end, Lucian and Roxanne directed the children backstage and got ready to perform.They had thought the children would feel at least a little nervous, as it was t
The abandoned Wife Unexpected Rewards
Lucian stood behind Roxanne and stared at her silhouette for a long time.What is she thinking about? She didn’t even notice I was here. She didn’t even move an inch the entire time I was here.After a long while, Lucian raised his feet at walked toward her with a frown on his face.Only when a shadow cast on her did Roxanne realize that she was not alone. Snapping out of her daze, Roxanne lifted her head to look at the person standing in front of her.As their gazes met, Roxanne immediately knitted her brows and stood up with solemn guardedness. She took a few steps back, increasing the distance between them.“What are you thinking about, Ms. Jarvis? Why did you leave Archie and Benny behind and come out here alone?” Lucian asked in concern as though nothing had happened.Roxanne looked at the man standing before her and retorted, “Didn’t you leave Essie behind and come out here as well, Mr. Farwell?”Lucian’s expression sank momentarily, but quickly, he flashed a smile at Roxanne. “

“Put your hands together as we invite the champion to receive the prize on stage!” The host smiled and looked toward Roxanne and the others. Roxanne glanced at Lucian, hoping he would go up.However, Lucian remained seated calmly and showed no intention of standing up.Roxanne had no choice but to get up on stage to receive the vouchers for a hot spring vacation from Jeffrey.As she walked up the stage, everyone shot her envious looks.Thinking that the people might have seen their kiss, Roxanne couldn’t wait to get off the stage. She hurriedly took the vouchers, thanked the presenter, and turned to step down from the stage.The three children looked at the vouchers in her hand with faces full of excitement.Roxanne, however, was distracted.The long wait for the event to end was exhausting. And as soon as it ended, Roxanne immediately got up, wanting to leave with the children.As they walked out of the hall, Estella said gingerly, “Ms. Jarvis, let’s go together!”Roxanne was shocke
