Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 696

Chapter 696 You Still Remember Me

When Roxanne checked her phone and saw that it was noon, she realized she had forgotten to discuss lunch with Archie and Benny when she left earlier.

“Excuse me, I need to make a phone call,” Roxanne said apologetically as she stood up.

Jack wasn’t sure what she was up to, but he didn’t bother to ask her about it. He simply nodded in response and watched as she made her way to a quiet corner of the restaurant.

Archie and Benny were watching TV with Estella at home when they heard the phone ringing.

Knowing that their mother was the only one who would call that landline, they immediately rushed over to answer the phone.

“When are you coming back, Mommy? Essie came over to play! We’re keeping her company right now!” Benny asked while glancing at Estella.

He then passed the phone over to Estella and motioned at her to say something.

“Hi, Ms. Jarvis!” Estella called out with a wide grin on her face.

Roxanne’s heart melted when she heard Estella’s adorable voice. “Hi, Essie! What brings you here today?”

“You were drenched in the rain yesterday. I was worried that you might get sick, so I came over to check on you!” Estella replied.

“I’m sorry, Essie, but I probably won’t be back for a while. I’ll have someone else bring you some food, okay?” Roxanne said apologetically.

“Okay!” Estella answered with a nod.

Roxanne then told Archie and Benny to take good care of Estella before hanging up the phone. After that, she prayed that Madilyn wouldn’t be too busy as she dialed her number.

“What’s up, Roxanne?” Madilyn answered the phone rather quickly.

Sure enough, those happened to be Benny’s favorites.

“Your mommy couldn’t make it home in time, so she had me bring you kids lunch. You are allowed to have deep-fried stuff, right?” Madilyn said as she placed the food on the dining table.

Her gaze soon fell upon Estella, who was sitting in a corner of the living room.

As she had only seen Estella once, she didn’t remember much about the little girl.

Huh? Is it just me, or does this girl kind of resemble Roxanne in some way?

“You’re Estella, right? Do you remember me?” Madilyn asked as she stepped forward to take a closer look at her.

Estella blinked a couple of times before nodding and replying, “Yes, I do! It’s nice to see you again!”
