Leaving The Country After Divorce Chapter 1255

“Trust me.”

Following Lucian’s gentle murmur, a soft kiss fell on Roxanne’s lips.

Roxanne instinctively held her breath and gazed at the man before her dazedly.

Her eyes flickered when she thought of his words earlier, and she finally let down her guard.

Although Lucian wanted to deepen the kiss, he could only test the waters carefully as he wasn’t sure about

Roxanne’s feelings. Sensing that, Roxanne slowly closed her eyes.

The next second, Lucian pulled her into his arms and engulfed her in a heated kiss.

After a long time, Roxanne began to run out of breath. She pushed at Lucian’s chest, and only then did he let go of

her reluctantly.

Lucian panted heavily with furrowed brows, his eyes as deep as the ocean. As he stared at Roxanne, it seemed as if

he was going to devour her.

Upon meeting his eyes, Roxanne felt her heart skip a beat. She averted her gaze in a panic and forced herself to

stay calm. “Let’s eat. The kids must be starving.”

Then, she dished up the food nonchalantly to bring them to the dining table and, at the same time, escape from

Lucian.

The emotions churning in Lucian’s eyes were so passionate that she somehow felt scared.

Just as Roxanne passed by Lucian, his low, hoarse voice sounded beside her ear. “This time, don’t try to pretend as

if nothing happened. It’s been so long since Essie wanted you to be her mommy. Don’t you think of running away.”

Roxanne paused for a millisecond, but she quickened her footsteps the next moment and left the kitchen.

There was no one in the living room.

Archie, Benny, and Estella had tactfully gone to the courtyard to avoid disturbing their parents.

After placing the dishes on the table, Roxanne stood in place for a while to calm herself down before walking to the

door to call the kids.

“Mommy, where’s Mr. Farwell?”

The trio sat by the dining table and looked around curiously. Lucian’s plate and cutlery were set on the table, but

the man was nowhere to be seen.

Roxanne glanced at the kitchen out of reflex and flashed them a sheepish smile. “He’s still in the kitchen. He’ll be

here soon.”

As if hearing their conversation, Lucian came out of the kitchen right after Roxanne’s words fell.



Hearing footsteps behind her, Roxanne turned around.

When she saw Lucian’s unkempt shirt, the feelings she had barely managed to suppress were stirred up again.

Even her face started to flush uncontrollably.

On the other hand, Lucian strolled over with an unbothered expression even under their stares.

“Sorry to keep you waiting.”

Lucian sat across Roxanne and smiled apologetically at the kids.

In return, the trio exchanged glances before telling Lucian it was okay.

Except for Roxanne, everyone at the table was in a great mood.

During the meal, they kept placing food on each other’s plates.

Roxanne did that repeatedly for the three children out of habit. When she finally turned her attention back to her

own plate, she discovered it was full of her favorite food.

Across her, Lucian retracted his hand leisurely. From the looks of it, he was going to get her more.

Roxanne felt her heart flutter, but she immediately stopped him. “That’s enough. I can’t eat so much.”

Lucian listened to her and finally halted his actions.

Meanwhile, Archie, Benny, and Estella stared at the two adults.

As Roxanne was still not used to this kind of atmosphere, she looked a little helpless.

“How is your mommy’s cooking? Is it good?”

Lucian’s cheerful voice broke the awkwardness.

The kids instantly understood what he meant and looked away from Roxanne. “Yes!” they answered sweetly.

Taking that opportunity, Lucian began chatting with them.

Roxanne heaved a silent sigh of relief. At the sight of the pile of food on her plate, she was suddenly overcome with

a bittersweet feeling.
