Leaving The Country After Divorce Chapter 705

Chapter 705 Cannot Make Decisions On Her Behalf



After cleaning up the coffee table, Roxanne got up to go and throw away some trash when she found Lucian standing in the

doorway, blocking her path. “Could you please let me through, Mr. Farwell?”

Lucian frowned when he heard her voice and turned sideways to let her pass. He watched her walk away and could not stop his

gaze from flicking toward the flowers she had temporarily left on the couch. His eyes flashed with anger.

After returning from throwing the trash, she heard him ask in a low voice, “Didn’t you say you were going to treat me the same as

the others?”

Roxanne halted her footsteps at those words and raised her gaze to meet his with a quizzical expression. Furrowing his brows,

Lucian asked, “Why did you send back all the flowers I sent you previously, yet bring home the flowers other people give you?”

Before Roxanne could respond, she heard him press further. “So who are the flowers from? Larry? Or is it Jack?”

“They’re…” She started to answer his question without even thinking about it. The next moment, however, she noticed his awful

attitude and stopped herself abruptly.

Lucian thought she was about to respond, but to his surprise, she fell silent after beginning her sentence.

After waiting for a while and still not getting an answer from her, Lucian looked even more displeased.

All Roxanne wanted was to ignore the man in front of her. She continued walking further into the house, but he

grabbed her wrist.

“Why aren’t you answering?” Lucian gazed at her darkly, his suspicions about her relationship with Larry and Jack

deepening.

Roxanne stopped walking and glanced back at him. She was also feeling frustrated and furious, and her gaze was

cold.

“I’ve explained to you my relationship with them many a time. If you insist on misunderstanding the matter, there’s

nothing I can do about that. Also, what you said earlier was something you came up with yourself. I never agreed to

it.”

Lucian’s gaze grew even more sullen after he heard her reply. After a while, his lips curled with sarcasm as he

remarked, “Indeed, I’ve deluded myself.”

Then he let go of her wrist.

Surprise flashed across Roxanne’s eyes.

It’s the first time he has let me off so easily…

For a moment, the atmosphere between the pair was thick with tension.



“If there’s nothing else, I’ll be going to prepare dinner.” Not wanting to linger around any longer, she withdrew her

gaze first and headed toward the kitchen.

This time, Lucian did not stop her.

Roxanne was at the kitchen doorway when his voice rang out again. “There’s no need to prepare dinner for Essie. I’ll be taking her

home when she comes downstairs.”

His gaze was so dark that it was utterly frightening.

The way I see it, Roxanne’s acceptance of flowers from another man is equivalent to her accepting that man’s pursuit of her.

Naturally, I shouldn’t hang around and get underfoot. Taking care of Essie has probably even turned into a nuisance for her.

Otherwise, why would she have left the three kids at home and let them eat takeaway?

Roxanne turned and cast a glance at him. “It’s something I promised her I’d do. As long as she doesn’t tell me otherwise, I’ll

definitely make dinner for her. Even though you’re her father, you can’t make decisions on her behalf.”

With that, she spun around and went into the kitchen.

When Archie, Benny, and Estella headed downstairs, they saw Lucian standing in the living room expressionlessly.

The trio exchanged glances at the sight of that, picking up on the strange atmosphere in the living room.

It doesn’t take a genius to figure out that the two adults must’ve gotten into an argument, and it was about those flowers.
