Roxanne felt Lucian’s arms wrapped tightly around her, and her voice gradually grew weaker until only faint sobs
were heard from her.
“Why… Why did you…”
Lucian was a man who had dominated the business world for many years, but in the face of Roxanne’s tears and
questioning, he had no idea how to respond. All he could do was apologize repeatedly.
“We want hugs too!” Archie and Benny exclaimed as they hopped around with joy.
Happiness was the only emotion left within them after all the crying.
To them, the hug they shared was a hug of joy and excitement.
Roxanne slowly recollected herself and felt slightly embarrassed when she heard the children’s voices.
I can’t believe I cried so hard in front of the kids…

smile.

Roxanne swore to herself that she would never abandon Estella ever again.
The grim look in Lucian’s eyes eased away when he saw Roxanne smiling.
Noticing Archie and Benny’s eagerness to give them a hug, Lucian bent over and embraced the two little boys as a
look of tenderness surfaced in his eyes.
At that moment, Archie and Benny were filled with joy, for they found their sister and were hugged by their father.
All of a sudden, Lucian let go of them.
Just as the two boys were confused as to what was going on, a shiny thing appeared in their line of sight.
Upon taking a closer look, they realized it was the ring that Lucian had used to propose moments ago.
“Can you please do me a favor and put this ring on your Mommy’s finger?”
Lucian’s tone carried an unprecedented gentleness that Archie and Benny had never heard before.
The boys exchanged glances. Of course, they would be happy to help Lucian.
Since Estella could already change the way she addressed Roxanne, the boys wanted to address Lucian as “Daddy”
too.
Benny carefully took his mother’s hand while Archie slowly slid the ring through her finger.
When their mission was completed, they looked up at Roxanne in anticipation.
However, Roxanne was busy trying to comfort Estella at the moment. Her mind was in such a mess that she didn’t
have the time to pay attention to what the boys were doing though she had sensed something.
“Please stop crying, Essie. I will never leave you again. I promise,” said Roxanne, assuring the little girl. “From now
on, I’ll protect you. I won’t let anyone bully our Essie. You’re my precious little baby.”
The woman patted Estella’s back as she spoke.
Estella was struggling to keep her emotions in check after going through such an eventful day.
When she heard Roxanne’s promise to her, she asked through sobs, “R-Really? You won’t leave me, Mommy?”
Roxanne felt her heart clench when she saw how red Estella’s eyes were from all the crying. She held out her hand
without hesitation and said, “Let’s make a pinky promise! From now on, I promise to take you wherever I go!”
Archie and Benny’s eyes were filled with anticipation when they saw their mother’s action.

Roxanne caught sight of something shiny out of the corner of her eyes, but she did not pay much attention to it.
She was focusing on Estella.
However, Estella fixed her gaze on Roxanne’s hand.
A few seconds later, she smiled through her tears and exclaimed excitedly, “Mommy, did you say yes to Daddy?
Then we’re going to be a family! Mommy, you won’t leave anymore!”
Overjoyed, she wrapped her arms around Roxanne’s neck and hugged the woman tightly.
Roxanne froze in shock.
When did I say yes?
As she glanced in the direction where the little girl was staring just now, she noticed the diamond ring that Lucian
was holding was currently on her finger.
Roxanne remembered the strange sensation she had felt earlier and looked down at Archie and Benny, who were
standing by her side.
The boys were smiling adorably.
