Chapter 1344
Upon seeing the scene before her, Estella knew she couldn’t help and went to call for her mother instead.
When Roxanne returned to her senses and turned to the sea, she saw the boys approaching the ocean.
She saw Benny frowning while looking as though he had lost his soul.
“Archie! Benny!” Furrowing her eyebrows, she chased after them.
She wouldn’t have panicked if they were in a different place because the boys knew how to swim.
However, she had tripped there two days ago, so she knew there were rocks hiding in the water. She couldn’t help but worry.
Estella followed behind her.
Right then, a huge wave rushed straight toward the boys. Roxanne felt her heart tighten. She increased her pace and grabbed the boys in time.
The three of them were drenched in seawater, but not Estella because she was too far behind.
When Benny snapped back to reality, he lowered his head guiltily to avoid looking at Roxanne.
Roxanne tossed the boys to the beach.
In one smooth motion, Benny sat on the ground and flashed a pleasing smile at his mother.
Those not in the know would think they were just playing around.
Lowering his head, Archie apologized, “I’m sorry for not keeping a close eye on Benny, Mommy.”
Roxanne couldn’t help but feel guilty as she met his eyes. “I thought you were busy working today…” It’s also because I need time to calm down after I rejected his proposal last night.
However, he didn’t give her a chance to breathe. “As busy as I may be, I still have time to spend with you all.” Then he examined her and the boys because they were wet before speaking meaningfully. “Besides, I can’t help but worry when you bring the children to the beach.”
Roxanne blushed as she recalled the kiss they had after she fell that day.
“Mommy’s very good at swimming!” Benny defended. She even went diving when we went on vacation last time!
Just as he ended his sentence, he heard his father chuckle for no apparent reason.
Meanwhile, Roxanne’s face was getting even redder.
When the children saw how their parents were acting, they knew for sure something had happened and that it very likely involved their father bullying their mother.
