He tugged her sleeve obediently. “I don’t blyou, Mommy!” Roxanne forced a smile, but she still felt remorseful. Benny tilted his head and blurted out his thoughts, “If you really feel sorry, make Mr. Farwell our daddy! Archie and I like him a lot!” Roxanne’s heart clenched when she heard that.

“Mr. Farwell is going to marry someone else in the future, and there's nothing | can do about it.” She patted his head comfortingly. “However, | can promise you that your future daddy will be someone you and your brother will like!” Naturally, Benny was disappointed when his proposal was rejected by his mother.

While Estella didn’t think much about her lie, Archie had a good guess why his mother had asked his brother for help. He was slightly worried as he wondered how Benny had answered her questions.
He noticed his little brother's expression appeared a bit odd. He didn’t spill the beans, did he? He couldn’t help but panic.
