Chapter 1308 The boys were elated to learn that they would be going over to Lucian's place.
They figured their father was worried about their mother and wanted to care for her there.
But why does he wont Mommy to go over? If he's really worried about her, won't it be easier for him to chere? They emerged from Roxanne's bedroom, puzzled by the arrangement.
Before the boys could cto a conclusion, Cayden was already knocking on their door.
Roxanne, who was ready, went down to get the door.
“Ms. Jarvis, Mr. Farwell has requested that | take you and the children to the manor,” Cayden informed cordially.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRoxanne nodded in acknowledgment. “I know. He calledjust now. The children will be down soon, so please bear with us for a moment.” As soon as she said that, the boys crunning down the stairs.
Cayden ushered all of them into the car.
During the journey, Roxanne couldn't resist asking, “Do you know why Lucian called US over?” Cayden shook his head after a momentary hesitation. “You'll find out when you're there.” Although he was aware of the reason, it would be inappropriate for him to talk about it before his employer did.
Roxanne frowned slightly. The curiosity within her began to swell.
Cayden obviously knows something but refuses to talk.
The more secretive Cayden was, the more Roxanne found it strange.
Archie and Benny were unsettled by the mysterious atmosphere as well.
It wasn't until twenty minutes later that the car gradually stopped in front of the Farwell residence.
When Cayden led the three in, Lucian was already waiting in the living room.
Behind him stood a man with exquisite features and an ordinary build. However, the man seemed to appear ill at ease.
At the sight of Roxanne, the man greeted her sincerely, “How do you do, Ms. Jarvis?” Wondering if it was just her imagination, Roxanne could feel as if the man seemed to need her help.
She gave Lucian a puzzled look. “Who might this be?” The moment she made eye contact with Lucian, Roxanne was stunned a second time. The conflicted look she saw in his eyes somehow overwhelmed her.
“What happened? Why are you—" She wanted to ask Lucian why he was looking at her that way.
“This is Cory Zaythrone. He's a private investigator,” Lucian interrupted her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRoxanne remained as puzzled as before. She had never heard of that name, but the man clearly knew her.
Sensing her confusion, Lucian elaborated, "He's been watching you all this while.” The revelation caused Roxanne's eyes to glisten in shock.
She gave the man another look and felt a sudden chill down her spine.
Someone has been followingall this while, and yet | was oblivious to it! Why is he doing this? What did he do while tailing me? Roxanne wanted to probe further.
Before she could do so, a small figure suddenly ran down from upstairs. “Aunt Roxanne! Archie! Benny!” Estella had been looking for her father upon waking up. Little did she expect to find Roxanne and the boys there too. Visibly delighted, she hurried up to them with a childish skip.
Roxanne had no choice but to swallow her words before flashing a smile at Estella.
“Aunt Roxanne, are you feeling better? What brings you here all of a sudden?” While giving her a concerned look, Estella tiptoed to try to feel Roxanne's forehead.
Roxanne leaned forward so that Estella could reach her. “The fever is gone.” Only after Estella felt it herself did she relax.
Meanwhile, while watching the heartwarming scene of Roxanne interacting with the three children, Lucian was enraged by the thought of what he had learned in the afternoon.
If it weren't forAubree, things would have been like this long ago!
