Ex-Wife Don't Leave, Love Is Coming Again! novel Chapter 1218

In a deep voice, Lucian uttered, “They're in the room next to this. Since you've woken up, I'll let them have a look at you before asking Cayden to send them back.”

Roxanne agreed to it without hesitation since she did not want the kids to stay in the hospital for too long.

However, Lucian made no moves even after a long while.

Roxanne felt her heart lurch as the scenes of how Lucian showered her with care and concern last night filled her mind.

She initially thought Lucian would head next door to bring the kids over, and she could use the time alone to cool herself down.

Seeing how he remained seated in the room, Roxanne had no idea how to respond.

“Put the needles away,” Lucian said suddenly, with his eyes fixed on the silver needles on the side of her bed that she had yet kept.

Those words left Roxanne frozen in shock.

Then, Lucian's gaze landed on her face, and in an unhurried tone, he added, “Those needles will scare the kids.”

Roxanne immediately explained with her instincts, “They won't. Archie and Benny are used to it.”

Sometimes, the two boys would even help with the disinfection and cleaning.

To them, the needles used for acupuncture were actually no different from the forks used for dining.

Lucian's gaze darkened. “But Essie will be scared. They already got freaked out by the way you looked yesterday.”

Roxanne was promptly taken aback. She almost forgot that Estella was around too.

Noticing how Lucian's face clouded over, Roxanne cast her eyes downward apologetically. “I'm sorry. I forgot about that.”

Lucian frowned. “I don't mean it that way. You don't have to apologize to me.”

In truth, he merely wanted to remind Roxanne that the kids were terrified by what happened the day before, and the sight of those needles might spook them out again.
