Mission To Remarry Chapter 713 The Man Sleeping Soundly

Chapter 713 The Man Sleeping Soundly

The children weren’t much help in the kitchen, but with them around, Roxanne’s turbulent emotions slowly

subsided. When she came out after cooking dinner, she immediately spotted Lucian sitting on the couch.

He seemed to be rather tired, for he had already dozed off while they were preparing dinner. His head tipped

slightly to the side, and he half-leaned against the couch. Even while asleep, he was still as elegant as ever.

Seeing that, Roxanne instinctively gentled her movements to not make too much noise and made a shushing

gesture at the children.

The children followed her gaze. The instant they laid eyes on the sleeping man, a glimmer of bemusement flashed

across Archie and Benny’s faces.

Daddy would usually settle work matters whenever he was free. But today, he actually fell asleep. Has he been too

exhausted from work recently?

The brothers looked at Estella in confusion. When Estella’s eyes fell on the man asleep on the couch, the smile on

her face gradually faded. Her eyes brimmed with worry.

Meeting the boys’ gazes, she explained softly, “Daddy hasn’t been sleeping well these days. He keeps having

insomnia, but he has a lot of work during the day.

So, things have been pretty bad.”

While Lucian had never mentioned that to her, she overheard his conversation with Catalina. Learning that her

father had been having trouble sleeping, she had been exceedingly worried.

Subsequently, she seemingly remembered something. She whirled around and gazed at Roxanne expectantly.

Roxanne was a tad puzzled upon noticing her gaze.

“Aren’t you an impressive doctor, Ms. Jarvis? Can you please help Daddy?”

Estella cautiously grasped the hem of the woman’s shirt. The worried look on the girl’s face made Roxanne’s heart

ache. If he’s suffering from insomnia due to physical reasons, it’s indeed a piece of cake for me to treat him. But

then, physical contact will be inevitable during the treatment process.

She felt rather conflicted as she recalled what happened when they were playing in the afternoon. “Daddy’s

condition has persisted for several days.”

Estella gave Roxanne’s shirt another tug and looked at her with a beseeching look in her eyes.

In the end, Roxanne couldn’t bring herself to turn Estella down. After wavering for a brief moment, she agreed with

a smile, “Okay. We’ll eat first and let your daddy sleep for a while. When we’ve finished eating, I’ll check him over.”

Upon receiving her agreement, Estella nodded obediently. “Thank you, Ms.

Jarvis.” Beaming, Roxanne stroked her head. Then, she had dinner with the three children while the food was still

hot.

Knowing that Lucian was catching up on sleep, the children were particularly thoughtful. They were extra careful as

they ate, almost making no noise.

After dinner, they all stared at Roxanne in anticipation, hoping she would treat

Lucian as soon as possible. Exasperation flooded Roxanne when she saw the look on their faces. “Go and play first. I

can’t concentrate with you all eyeballing me.”

Despite feeling somewhat reluctant, the children still went to the backyard docilely, thinking that it was indeed

inappropriate for them to be a hindrance at the side while she was treating Lucian.

Roxanne sighed with relief as she watched the kids leave. Considering her level of expertise, she didn’t really need

to concentrate if she was merely treating insomnia.

In truth, she just didn’t want them to see her having any physical contact with the man. With them looking on, she

couldn’t help remembering her various intimate interactions with him previously.



Only when the children had gone so far that their voices couldn’t be heard anymore did she stroll over to the couch

and look down at the man who was still sleeping soundly
