When Lucian heard her straightforward reply, he pondered deeply.
Worried she might be angry, he explained, “I don't think there's a need for it, but my mom's exceptionally stubborn. You can choose not to do the test if you find it offensive.”
While he was saying that, he looked like a frightened child who had made a mistake. Roxanne could not help but smile, for it amused her.
“It's nothing. I just need to collect things like hair and run a test. It doesn't harm the kids, so there's no reason for me to object. Besides, if I object, I'll only be perceived as feeling guilty.”
It was not the time to be concerned about her dignity.
Letting Archie and Benny return to the Farwell family was not a simple matter of reuniting with their father. It also meant that they had the right to be the heir of the Farwell family.
Although Roxanne had zero interest in money, she was determined to fight for her children's rights.
The Farwell family was a huge family. Showing them proof with a paternity test was the best way to silence their doubts.
After agreeing to Lucian's request, Roxanne went downstairs and eyed the two kids for some time. Coincidentally, their hair had gotten long. Roxanne instructed the butler to call in a hairdresser to give the kids' hair a trim. She also instructed the butler to keep some of the hair for the paternity test.
Not long after, the boys each placed some of their hair into a transparent container and labeled them clearly before giving them to Roxanne.
The boys looked refreshed after the haircut. Hence, Estella wanted a haircut too. In fact, she wanted the same one as the boys.
It took a lot of complimenting from the hairdresser to convince Estella that there was no need for it.
When Roxanne handed the containers to Lucian, he observed her reaction cautiously. Sure enough, she was not mad.
