Chapter 707 Let Us Play A Game

Archie held out the flower again hesitantly. “There are plenty of lilies in Mommy’s bouquet. That’s why I dared to

take one of them.” Lucian’s brows furrowed as he finally understood what Archie meant.

Someone obviously sent those flowers that Roxanne brought back as a thankyou gift. I was the one who

misunderstood the whole thing. No wonder she flew into such a rage!

Lucian’s expression relaxed drastically after he realized the truth of the situation. He swept his gaze over to

Roxanne, who was busy in the kitchen, then turned back and took the lily Archie was holding. “I’m sorry. I jumped to

conclusions. Essie and I will stay for dinner.”

With that, he set Estella down. As soon as her feet touched the ground, Estella shot her father a glare before

running off toward the kitchen to look for Roxanne.

In the living room, Lucian held the lily taken from Roxanne’s bouquet of flowers with a frown. He and the boys

stared at each other for some time.

Archie and Benny could see Lucian’s frustration, and they snuck glances at each other with troubled looks in their

eyes. Daddy and Mommy often argue, but it’s clear that Mommy is very angry this time. What can we do to help

them make up?

Over in the kitchen, Estella clung to Roxanne’s leg. Roxanne, still fuming with anger, was perplexed when she saw

Estella running into the kitchen, looking aggrieved. “What’s the matter, Essie? Did the brothers bully you?”

As she spoke, she cast a glance toward the door. That doesn’t make sense.

The boys have always been fond of Essie, so why would they bully her? Apart from the boys, the only other possible

culprit is Lucian.

The next second, Estella’s reply confirmed her suspicions. “It was Daddy! He’s a meanie!” Estella said huffily,

complaining about her father to Roxanne.

Estella’s response did not surprise Roxanne. However, the latter was still curious about what caused Estella to

become so angry. “How was he mean to you?”

Puffing out her cheeks, Estella recounted what had happened angrily. “Daddy wanted to take me home and

wouldn’t let me have dinner with you!”

A look of surprise flashed across Roxanne’s eyes. Lucian did mention taking Essie home just now, but I already shot

him down. I didn’t think he’d still go ahead with it. I wonder how she managed to run in here.

As the thought went through her mind, she subconsciously lifted her gaze, worried that Lucian would suddenly

barge in. Once she looked up, however, she spotted Archie and Benny standing at the kitchen doorway.

“Mommy, let’s play a game together!” Benny said with a bright smile. His words threw Roxanne for a loop. Pursing

his lips, Archie nodded solemnly. “Yes, let’s play a game!”

Seeing that the usually serious Archie was also suggesting they play a game together made Roxanne even more

confused. And for some reason, his cheeks are so flushed.

Estella burrowed into Roxanne’s arms and turned to look at Archie and Benny curiously. They were so anxious when

Daddy nearly took me home, and I’m still mad about it. Yet, they want to play a game now. How strange.

Just as Estella was wondering what was going on, Benny winked at her discreetly and signaled for her to look

through the doorway at Lucian. Getting his hint, she reluctantly glanced at her father.
