Leaving The Country After Divorce Chapter 691

Chapter 691 Who Is She With

Lucian’s gaze darkened slightly at Archie’s reply. Treating a child? Roxanne could be with either Jack or Larry. Lucian

clung to the last sliver of hope as he asked Archie and Benny, “Do you remember what the man looked like?”

The boys looked at each other. Benny sensibly remained silent and allowed Archie to take the lead. The elder twin

replied somberly, “The man looked very handsome and seemed to be on good terms with Mommy.”

He hoped it would remind Lucian that their mother had many admirers and spur him to step up his courtship. Sadly,

his plan backfired. He did not know Lucian and Roxanne’s relationship had grown tense because of Larry and Jack.

Archie’s reply only added to Lucian’s suspicions of Roxanne’s relationship with the two men.

He thought of asking the boys for more details but decided against it when he noticed their blank expressions. With

his brows still knitted, Lucian asked, “How will you go to school later? Do you need me to give you a lift?”

The boys shook their heads. “Mommy already told the school we’re not coming in today.”

Lucian looked to Estella upon hearing the boys’ reply.

The young girl had been upset after learning that Roxanne had left with another man. In fact, she was taking it out

on her father by giving him the cold shoulder.

I told Daddy I wanted to see Ms. Jarvis in the morning! Daddy took his sweet time and made us late. Now, Ms. Jarvis

has left with someone else!

Estella even began doubting her father’s ability to woo Roxanne and give her the mother she wanted.

Lucian sensed his daughter’s discontent and massaged his temples in frustration. Then, he asked Archie and Benny,

“Can I leave Essie with you two? I have to get to work, so I won’t take a detour to her kindergarten. Do you promise

to take care of yourselves?”

The boys immediately jumped at the opportunity to spend time with their sister. “Of course! We’ll take good care of

Essie!”

Lucian turned to Estella next, relieved to notice the hint of a smile curving her mouth.

Despite her earlier displeasure, she evidently cheered up at the thought of spending time with Archie and Benny.

He knew his daughter best. If he insisted on sending her to kindergarten, she would be mad at him for the rest of

the day until she met Roxanne.

It was better to leave her at Roxanne’s house and allow her to play with the boys. Her mood would certainly

improve.

After leaving Estella in Archie and Benny’s care, Lucian waved goodbye to the children and got into his car.

Still, he felt insecure about leaving the children at home alone and called Cayden, instructing him to arrange for

some men to watch the house and keep the children safe.

Cayden quickly agreed to his orders.

After hanging up, Lucian instinctively pulled up Roxanne’s number on his phone and hesitated about calling her.

I should at least figure out who she’s with right now.

He quickly squashed the thought before it could take root in his mind.

After all, Roxanne had never appreciated his efforts of snooping around her life, and she had repeatedly explained

the innocent nature of her relationship with Larry and Jack to him.

Lucian merely refused to believe her.

His suspicions had riled her up on many occasions.

If he called her now and interrogated her on her whereabouts, he would destroy his previous efforts to improve her

impression of him.

Despite his frustration, Lucian reined in his jealousy and kept his phone.
