Mission To Remarry novel Chapter 1351

It was her first photograph with the three children.

More importantly, it was after learning that Estella was the baby whom she had thought died prematurely.

“Thank you,” she said gratefully.

Looking at her trembling hands, Lucian pulled her into his arms. “If you want to thank me, then reconsider my proposal. I was lying to you. I can't wait much longer. Six years is long enough. I don't want to keep waiting.”

Roxanne lowered her head without answering. Her eyes brimmed with guilt.

Having detected something in her silence, Lucian released her with a sigh and gave her a kind smile. “It's all right. I can wait a little longer. Besides, I'm sure you wouldn't bear to keep me waiting too long.”

Roxanne looked away, not knowing what to say.

“Mommy, what were you looking at earlier?”

Benny could tell that something was wrong between their parents, so he hurriedly tried to change the subject. Clutching Roxanne's arm, he asked to see the phone in her hand.

Heaving a sigh of relief, she crouched beside him to show him the photographs.

Initially only intending to help his father out of the predicament, Benny was pleasantly surprised to learn how nice the photographs his father had taken looked and was momentarily mesmerized.

“Wow, Mommy! You and Essie look so much alike when you smile!” He found the photograph of his mother and sister smiling. “We've never noticed this!”

Having also just seen that photograph, Roxanne felt emotional.

Estella leaned closer curiously to Benny and gazed at the photograph.

A moment later, she arrived at a verdict. “Mommy is pretty!”
