Chapter 547
The brilliant lights of the fireworks seemed exceptionally mesmerizing when viewed from the reflections in the kids’
eyes.
Roxanne stood carefully beside Lucian while gazing up at the night sky. Nevertheless, she constantly glanced at
Archie and Estella from the corner of her eye, fearing they might fall from Lucian’s shoulders.
Fortunately, both of them were safe until the end of the fireworks show.
Archie felt slightly reluctant to get down afterward because that was the first time he had sat on his father’s
shoulder. However, he did not reveal his emotions. Instead, he submissively allowed Lucian to put him down on the
floor and thanked the latter politely, “Thank you, Mr. Farwell.”.
Lucian merely nodded in response without saying a word.
The crowd was still immersed in the romantic atmosphere of the fireworks show.

Roxanne had been keeping an eye on Benny’s whereabouts, so she had instantaneously noticed the changes on the
stage and shifted her gaze in that direction.
She saw Benny stepping out from behind the drum set and standing in the middle of the stage while holding a
microphone.
As if to help Benny, the guitarist casually plucked the strings on his guitar to attract everyone’s attention to the
stage.
“Ahem. Everyone, please listen to this little boy. He has a favor to ask from all of you.” The lead singer cleared his
voice and requested for the audience to hear Benny out.
Hearing that, Roxanne and the others could already guess what Benny was about to say.
Staring at his solemn expression onstage, Roxanne felt contented and even teared up a little,
“Hello, everyone. My name is Benny.” The little boy’s childish voice magnified and resonated throughout the venue
as he spoke into the microphone.
Benny did not appear nervous or afraid despite facing the huge crowd.
“I came here to watch the fireworks show with my mommy and brother, but I

accidentally got lost because there were too many people just now. If anyone sees someone looking for a child,
please help me inform my mommy that I’m here. My mommy is very pretty, so it will be easy to identify her!”
Benny contemplated briefly after saying that. Then, he added, “Perhaps there will be an uncle searching for me
too. Everyone can also tell him that I’m here. He’s distinguishable too because he is very tall and handsome. There
are also two children around my age beside them.”
Roxanne was amused by Benny’s description of them.
Even Lucian wore a faint smile as he listened to Benny’s speech.
Perhaps the four of them were too eye-catching. Soon, people were turning their heads in Roxanne, Lucian, and the
two kids’ direction.
Benny also noticed them, and when he spotted Roxanne, he held the microphone and called out in excitement,
“Mommy!”
The crowd made way for Roxanne and the others to reach Benny’s side.

Benny jogged over happily with the microphone in his hand when he saw Roxanne.
She bent down while beaming and pulled Benny into her embrace. “You scared me, Benny. Luckily, you’re so
smart.”
Benny gently patted his mother’s back and said, “I’m sorry, Mommy. But don’t worry about me because I’m very
smart. I will not follow the bad guys.”
When Benny realized he had gotten lost just now, he had immediately run toward the band, following the music,
because he thought he would be safer there. He had planned on borrowing the microphone from the band to find
Roxanne.
Fortunately, the band members were kind and friendly. After they had been made aware of Benny’s situation, they
had agreed to his request with alacrity.
Benny turned on his heels and sensibly expressed his gratitude to the band members. “Thank you all.”
They responded with a smile. “You’re welcome. We’re glad as long as you are safely reunited with your family.”
The band members even added a friendly reminder to Roxanne, “Your son is very gifted in music. If you can afford
it, we suggest you send him to a music academy to receive proper lessons.”
Roxanne grinned in agreement.
