Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 442

Chapter 442

After Roxanne left, Archie and Benny adamantly refused to enter the kindergarten

A headache assailed Pippa as she looked at them. Well, this is the first time they‘re being so stubborn.

“Archie, Benny, why don‘t you both go in first?” She bent down and tried to persuade them.

Archie merely pursed his lips without saying a word.

–

Beside him, Benny blinked his eyes and gazed at Pippa pitifully. “We‘re waiting for Essie, Ms. Ward.”

Upon hearing that, Pippa recalled their relationship with Estella. She patted them on the head, tacitly acquiescing to their request.

Shortly after, Lucian‘s car slowly came to a stop at the kindergarten gates. Then, Estella was carried out of the car by Lucian.

No sooner had she gotten out of the car than she lifted her head and darted her eyes around.

The instant she caught sight of Archie and Benny, she instinctively searched for signs of Roxanne nearby but to no avail.

At that, she hung her head in disappointment.

Lucian inexorably frowned when he noticed that only Archie and Benny were standing beside Pippa.

“Mr. Farwell.” Pippa greeted respectfully as she took Estella from him.

However, Lucian didn‘t leave immediately but lowered his head to gaze at the three children.

Since last night, Essie has been in low spirits, probably because she didn‘t get to see Roxanne. This morning, she also clamored to come earlier, hoping to wait for her at the kindergarten. Unexpectedly, the woman took off again! She must be utterly disappointed.

Likewise, chagrin swamped him.

Previously, Ms. Jarvis always had no time to pick them up when she was busy with work. At times, she even uses work as an excuse to avoid me.

Mommy did say that this morning, but how are we supposed to admit it when Essie is crestfallen now?

Following that, Estella turned to Archie.

Archie nodded solemnly, confirming his brother‘s words.

Only when he had indicated as much that a smile bloomed on Estella‘s face.

I thought Ms. Jarvis was going to go abroad soon, and I wouldn‘t be able to see her again. That was the reason for my sheer disappointment. But if they‘re telling me the truth, I‘ll still have an opportunity to see her as long as she‘s in the country!

At that thought, she was ecstatic, grinning so widely that her eyes became mere slits.

At the side, Lucian overheard the entirety of the three children‘s conversation.

When he heard Benny saying that Roxanne would be busy with work, he quirked an eyebrow thoughtfully.

Sure enough, Jonathan‘s strategy has borne some fruit!
