Mission To Remarry novel Chapter 292

Chapter 292 A Clean Break

“You guys are right. All right, then. I’ll get going first. See you all,” Lucian said after a pause, pursing his lips.

Since he had unilaterally called off his engagement with Aubree, and the news was not made public yet, Lucian thought he should only let them know later.

Archie and Benny were surprised and disappointed when Lucian actually agreed so readily.

So, he’s really getting married to that woman. Does this mean he doesn’t want us anymore?

The disgruntlement evoked by this thought was apparent on the children’s faces, and they replied curtly, “Goodbye, Mr. Farwell.”

Lucian was puzzled by their sudden change of attitude. The man wondered if he had done anything wrong to upset them, aside from his engagement with Aubree.

Earlier on, he had found Archie and Benny strangely distant, so he had decided to leave them alone. Yet when he actually did so, the two boys suddenly seemed disturbed by his departure.

Seriously… What’s the matter? I can’t think of a reason for their behavior.

Lucian eventually gave up on trying to explain their shift in attitude and reached for Estella’s hand instead. But when the girl saw Lucian nearing, she frowned and leaped to the ground from the couch.

The girl had been listening to their conversation all that while, so she knew Lucian was about to bring her home.

The man looked at his daughter, who had just dashed off about three meters away from him, in resignation.

I should’ve expected that. Essie is so clingy to Roxanne, so there’s no way she wants to leave. Besides, she’s still traumatized by what happened. I bet sending the medication here today is just an excuse for her to come see Roxanne.

“Come on, Essie. It’s time to go home. We’ll come to see Ms. Jarvis some other day,” Lucian coaxed with his gaze still pinned on the girl.
