Chapter 886 Unease

“If there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up now.”

Lucian waited for a moment before preparing to end the call when the two boys did not speak.

“Mr. Farwell, wait a minute!” The boys hurried to stop Lucian after hearing his words.

Lucian paused, complying with their request.

Cautiously, Benny glanced over at his mother while holding onto Archie’s watch. He said, “Mr. Farwell, are you busy

at work? If so, you can send Essie to us. We’ll take good care of Essie together with Mommy.”

After uttering the words, Benny waited with bated breath for Lucian’s reply.

After all, Lucian had rejected their request to go visit Estella just moments ago. Hence, it would not be a surprise if

this request was rejected as well.

In fact, he’s quite likely to reject it. Still, it was worth a try. Maybe Daddy will even agree to it!

Roxanne had not expected the boys to come out with their request so suddenly, leaving her feeling anxious.

A few moments later, Lucian’s voice sounded from the phone. “There’s no need. I will stay home and take care of

Essie.”

Without waiting for them to speak, Lucian hung up right away.

The boys’ mouths were agape for a moment before awkwardly shutting. Then, they turned to look at their mother

with woeful expressions.

As she was filled with frustration, the light in Roxanne’s eyes slowly dimmed.

However, she forced herself to smile and gently pat their heads when she saw their crestfallen expressions.

“Thank you, my darlings. Don’t worry. At least we found out that Essie’s all right.”

The two boys nodded obediently in response.

Although they were still worried, they knew if they wore their hearts on their sleeves, their mother would only

become sadder.

“Anyway, why do you guys have Lucian’s phone number?” Roxanne looked at Archie and Benny in confusion.

Not only did they somehow have Lucian’s phone number, but the latter also did not inquire who the caller was and

clearly called out to Archie after picking up the phone.

This meant that the three of them had contacted each other before.

However, Roxanne had no recollection of Archie ever using his smartwatch to call Lucian. Thus, she concluded that

they must have done it behind her back.

Suspicion surged within her as the realization hit her.

Right then, guilt flashed across their eyes as Archie and Benny realized their mother had caught wind of what they

had been up to.

Steeling himself, Archie said, “Mr. Farwell gave us his number the day you got drunk. He told us to call him anytime

if we needed anything.”

Roxanne furrowed her brows, trying to recall the time she had gotten drunk and had to be sent home by Lucian.

It makes sense if the boys had gotten Lucian’s phone number back then.

She leaned forward and tousled their hair, chiding them, “Don’t disturb him too much.”

Nodding demurely, Archie and Benny let out sighs of relief inwardly when Roxanne did not pry into the matter

further.

Roxanne sat with the children in the living room for some time before leaving to prepare their afternoon meal when

lunchtime drew near.

In the living room, Archie and Benny whispered among themselves.

“Archie, is Essie really okay?” Benny asked as he fiddled with his fingers to distract himself.

Pressing his lips together, Archie replied solemnly, “I don’t know either.”

Judging from Daddy’s tone, Essie didn’t seem to be okay.

Even if Lucian did not explicitly spell it out for them, they could guess the reason. Estella had likely fallen asleep

after wearing herself out with the crying.
