NovelEnglishChapter 1617 Jealous Of Your Own Daughter After the press conference, Jonathan tactfully took his leave, for he didn't want to get in the way of the loving couple.
Lucian had planned to take Roxanne out to celebrate, but both of them decided to pick the children up from home instead.
After all, it had been a long time since the children had gone out with them due to their busy schedules.
“Daddy! Mommy!” The moment they walked through the door, the children welcomed them excitedly.
Roxanne, in a good mood after resolving the matter, spread her arms with a smile but only ended up hugging Estella.

As the two brothers were lifted into the air, they screamed in between their laughter, “We can fly!” Lucian played along by swinging them through the air by their collar, while the brothers spread their arms to mimic the wings of a plane.
The three of them were enjoying themselves, but Roxanne was given a scare by the sight.
“Put them down. It's dangerous.” Lucian naturally did as he was told. Even though Archie and Benny didn't have enough, they ran up to Roxanne's side obediently, not wanting her to worry.
“We watched TV today! You looked so handsome, Daddy! Mommy, you looked gorgeous too!” Benny complimented them.
In response, Roxanne gave his hair a tousle.
Lucian suggested in a deep voice, “Come, let's all go for a night out.” The three of them jumped for joy at the news.
Roxanne and Lucian got the children changed into casual clothing before leaving home.
Lucian had made reservations at a high-end restaurant that was located on the top floor of the tallest building in the city center.
The entire place was booked for their family alone.
As the five of them sat on the open-air rooftop, they listened to the soothing music in the background while admiring the city lights that looked like meteor showers raining on the ground.
“It's been a while since we last saw you, Mr. Farwell.” The manager served them personally, after which, he made light conversation with his guests. “This must be Ms. Jarvis. She's really beautiful. No wonder you always come here alone despite our establishment being the best place for a date. With such a pretty partner, I'm sure no one else will ever catch your eye.” Roxanne, in a wonderful mood that day, couldn't help but tease Lucian by asking the manager, “Didn't he come here with Ms.

She had started out wanting to tease Lucian, but from the manager's reply, it seemed that she might end up embarrassing herself.
The manager added, “Mr. Farwell would always come with Ms. Farwell, who loves the desserts here. I'll bring you two more portions of it later. I'm sure the boys would enjoy them too.” The moment the manager finished, Roxanne's smile grew more awkward as she thanked him.
In an attempt to avoid eye contact with Lucian, she lowered her head to cut the children’s steak for them.
Once the manager left, it was Lucian's turn to pull her leg in return. “What is it, Ms. Jarvis? Are you jealous of your own daughter?” Roxanne stomped at his feet under the table.
“What does jealous mean, Mommy?” Estella gave Roxanne an innocent look.
Archie and Benny swiftly stuffed their sister's mouth with some salad so that she would keep her mouth shut.
Staring at how hard Roxanne was blushing, Lucian let out a soft chuckle.
