Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 805

Chapter 805 How Are You Feeling

Roxanne chatted with her sons as they descended the stairs together.

In the middle of breakfast, they heard the sudden ring of the doorbell.

The boys looked up, their eyes filled with anticipation. Thinking it was their father who had come to see their mother, they snuck a glance at the door.

Roxanne, baffled by the boys’ sudden delight, got up to open the door.

“Roxanne.” Standing at the door was Madilyn, who craned her neck to peek inside as if she was looking for someone when the door opened.

Roxanne was about to check with Madilyn about last night when the boys hurried over and looked up smilingly at their godmother.

“Aunt Madilyn, have you had breakfast? Do you want to join us?”

Madilyn had wanted to ask when Lucian left, but the boys interrupted her. She bent down to tousle their hair and declined with a smile, “I’ll pass. I need to go to work. You boys enjoy yourself.”

She then turned her attention to her best friend. “How do you feel? Are you having a bad hangover? I saw you drinking a lot last night.”

Roxanne reassured her, “I’m fine, other than a minor headache. Anyway, it should be easily cured with a day’s worth of rest.”

Hearing that, Madilyn nodded with relief and did not ask any further question.

Truth be told, she had to work an additional shift that day. With the hospital calling incessantly to pester her, she could only drop by briefly on her way to work.

Upon learning that Roxanne was fine, she said a short goodbye before driving away.

Once their godmother was out of sight, both the boys heaved a sigh of relief.

That was close. Aunt Madilyn almost let it slip.

Estella’s piping voice jolted her back to her senses, and she looked down at the former with a smile.

Estella raised her head and looked at Roxanne with concern. “Ms. Jarvis, how are you feeling?”

Roxanne was thrown into confusion by how abrupt the question was.

“Daddy said that you had a lot to drink last night,” Estella said innocently.

Roxanne looked at Lucian hesitatingly, briefly stunned.

Lucian had on a calm look. “She caught the smell of alcohol on me, so I told her about it.”

Not expecting Lucian to explain himself to her, Roxanne was taken aback for a few seconds. Then she turned to Estella and replied softly, “Thank you for your concern, Essie. I’m feeling a lot better now.”

Relieved, Estella responded with an obedient nod.
