Ex-Wife Don't Leave, Love Is Coming Again! novel Chapter 885

At that moment, in the Farwell residence, Lucian's phone rang once again.

Frowning when he saw the caller ID, he hesitated for a while before he got up and took the call outside.

It didn't matter which one of the boys was calling him because Lucian had no reason to reject their calls under any circumstances.

In fact, he was afraid something bad would befall them in the event that they were calling him because of an emergency.

It was a slim possibility, but Lucian did not want to leave it up to chance.

“Archie, what's wrong?”

Over the phone, Archie called out to Lucian in a childish voice and turned to look at his mother hesitantly.

Roxanne smiled encouragingly at Archie, gesturing at him to continue speaking. At the same time, she forced herself to ignore the peculiar sensation that had welled up in her heart.

Archie asked, “I heard Mommy say that Essie's crying. How's she doing now?”

He purposely mentioned his mother in hopes that Lucian would realize she was the one who made him ask after Estella.

Lucian's gaze darkened after hearing Archie's words.

I had a feeling Roxanne was the one who made him do this, but I didn't expect him to come out with the truth so easily.

“Is Essie still crying?”

Without waiting for his reply, Archie repeated his question and turned on the speaker.

With that, Roxanne would also be able to hear the conversation when Lucian spoke. However, the other end of the line remained silent for some time.

Lucian was currently debating with himself if he should inform Archie, for Roxanne was bound to find out if he did so.

He wanted to use the opportunity to make Roxanne consider whether work or the children was more important to her.
