Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 621

Chapter 621

After a while, Lucian asked in a deep voice, “I‘m not married, and neither are you. How am I putting you in a tough spot, Ms. Jarvis?”

Roxanne could barely keep her emotion in check when she heard that. She furrowed her brows and said, “If I remember correctly, it was you, Mr. Farwell, who reminded me often to keep the kids in mind.”

Lucian seemed unfazed. “I was just reminding you to stay away from those weird men.”

Roxanne could not wrap her head around the man‘s behavior. “Who do you think you are to me, Mr. Farwell? What makes you think you can interfere with my private life?”

Lucian scrunched up his face.

In the next second, he uttered bluntly, “I‘m telling you as someone who‘s trying to court you. Is that enough?”

Roxanne was taken aback. She thought her ears were playing tricks on him. “What did you say?”

Lucian knitted his brows. Since he had already revealed so much, he didn‘t mind telling her more. “You heard me right, Ms. Jarvis. I like you, and I want to pursue you.”

Roxanne was still confused when she heard him repeating himself. After keeping silent for almost a minute, she shook her head in amusement.

She had heard him clearly, but she found Lucian‘s words ironic.

“Mr. Farwell, don‘t you remember what happened six years ago? Don‘t you think it‘s a bit too late for that?”

Roxanne‘s mind went blank when she heard that. Sir years ago, Lucian was so keen on being with her. Now, she sounds like a problem to him.

She found the situation more and more ironic.

After a long while, she asked calmly, “Are you doing this because Essie doesn‘t like Ms. Pearson?”

Lucian frowned and looked at her confusion

“I know you love Essie deeply, Mr. Farwell. But I didn‘t expect you to make such an enormous sacrifice just so that Essie could have a mother she likes. I‘m surprised you would offer someone the status of being your wife.” Roxanne raised her head and looked at him calmly. “You don‘t have to beat around the bush and say anything that violates your will, Mr. Farwell. You‘ve already made yourself clear last time on the phone. You only choose me because Essie likes me.”

Although it sounded as though she was trying to tell Lucian oil, Roxanne was actually trying to convince herself to stay away from him.

Lucian‘s gaze turned even more solemn as he stared at her.
