Roxanne could tell that the children were getting anxious, so she did her best to suppress her emotions. “I'm not mad. In fact, I want to thank you for comforting Essie.”
Even though the kids' actions did cause a misunderstanding with Lucian, Roxanne knew Estella's mood would not have improved had it not been for them.
The children breathed a sigh of relief after hearing their mother but remained somewhat cautious.
“Sorry, Mommy. We won't run off by ourselves again,” promised Archie after crawling into her embrace.
Despite how dim the light in the car was, the exhaustion on Roxanne's face was plain to see.
The boy was convinced that he did not do anything wrong before, but at that moment, he was filled with guilt.
Benny, too, crawled into his mother's arms and apologized.
Then, Roxanne gave her children a big hug before patting them on the head. “I know you were just worried about Essie.”
In response, the kids nodded in agreement because they were indeed concerned about Estella.
However, they also had another reason they dared not tell Roxanne.
On the way home, Roxanne could not help but tense up when she saw from afar that the lights in the mansion were on.
After reaching the door, Roxanne was about to ask the children to stay there while she went inside to have a look when someone suddenly turned the doorknob from the other side.
“You're finally back!” Madilyn felt as if a huge weight had been lifted off her shoulders when she saw the three.
After leaving the Farwell residence, she went straight to Roxanne's house and waited for them to return.
