The Abandoned Wife novel Chapter 251

It was weekend soon.

Roxanne brought the kids to the kindergarten early in the morning.

That was the first time Archie and Benny attended a group activity. Holding Roxanne's hands, the two kids could not contain their curiosity as they continuously took in their surroundings eagerly.

Many children walked over and greeted Archie and Benny one after the other, and the siblings responded in kind.

Only then did Roxanne realize how popular Archie and Benny were at the kindergarten.

“Ms. Jarvis!”

Suddenly, a childish voice sounded from behind her.

Roxanne had not met Estella for a long time, so she also missed the latter dearly. When she heard the little girl's voice, Roxanne grinned out of habit and turned around to hug Estella.

However, when she turned on her heels, Roxanne was instead met with Lucian's gaze. Her expression stiffened as the smile on her face gradually dissipated. She merely lifted her arm and patted Estella's head. “Good morning, Essie.”

Then, she looked up indifferently at the man standing before her. “Good morning, Mr. Farwell.”

As they were participating in an outdoor activity, Lucian was dressed in casual attire. The dark-colored lightweight windbreaker that wrapped around his body accentuated his tall and broad figure. His fringe hung loosely over his forehead, giving him a younger look.

Lucian's eyes darkened when he held Roxanne's gaze. The next moment, he flashed an impassive smile as well. “I thought you would not come today, Ms. Jarvis.”

Roxanne was stunned upon hearing that.

Naturally, she fathomed he was hinting at the way she had been avoiding him lately.

At that thought, she could not help but feel the sarcasm.

Shouldn't he know better why I'm avoiding him? Who gives him the right to criticize me, then?
