Ex-Wife Don't Leave, Love Is Coming Again! novel Chapter 147

Lucian assumed that Roxanne was angry because the children were upset. Thus, he promised in an apologetic tone, “I didn't know that before. Now that I do, you can rest assured that I won't mention this in front of them again.”

After glancing at the children, who were playing Lego, Roxanne suddenly felt what a close shave it was for Lucian to talk to the boys about their father. With nothing else to say to him, she hinted for him to leave. “It's getting late, Mr. Farwell. Why don't you head home first? Thank you for taking the trouble to pick the kids up on my behalf today.”

After a brief hesitation, Lucian nodded before leaving.

On the journey home, he felt extremely unsettled but couldn't put a finger on what it was.

When he arrived, he removed his tie in frustration and sat on the couch for a while. Even then, he continued to feel disturbed.

Subsequently, he brought out a bottle of wine from the cabinet, sitting by the window to drink alone.

After two glasses, images of what happened at dinner gradually emerged in his mind.

The children were giving him angry yet pitiful looks while demanding to know why he didn't like them.

With their faces and tone in his mind, Lucian couldn't help but feel a piercing pain in his heart.

After Lucian was gone, Roxanne played with the children for a while before sending them to bed.

Having tucked Estella in, Roxanne pondered a moment before knocking on the boys' door.

Meanwhile, both of them were unable to sleep as they were still disturbed by the event earlier.

“Mommy, what is it?” Archie asked curiously when he opened the door and saw her.

Roxanne tousled his hair. “I just want to have a talk with both of you. Let's go inside.”
