Chapter 658
Roxanne chuckled when she heard Madilyn grumbling.
Pulling the children into her embrace, Madilyn said with a sigh, “It’s been such a busy month, but I’m already fecling much better after seeing these two kiddos.”
With that, she forcefully planted kisses on the boys cheeks, only to be shoved away by them in disdain.
“Let’s go out and play tomorrow! We haven’t spent much time together ever since you guys returned. It’s my day off tomorrow. I can take all of you out for the entire day,” Madilyn suggested, looking expectant.
The boys’ eyes lit up at the idea of going out to play. They instantly turned to Roxanne to hear her response.
Roxanne felt conflicted when she was met by the trio’s expectant gazes. “I’m afraid tomorrow is a no-no.”
The moment those words left her mouth, the trio’s faces fell simultaneously.
Madilyn stared at Roxanne with an exaggerated expression. “Don’t tell me you’re working tomorrow.”
Roxanne shook her head. “No,” was all she replied, leaving Madilyn even more confused.
“Then, what? Spit it out. There’s nothing we can’t tell one another.”
There was a slight change in Roxanne’s countenance, and she cast the boys a troubled glance.
The boys looked just as inquisitive as Madilyn.
Seeing that, Roxanne shook her head in exasperation.
The concert was tomorrow, and she had yet to inform the boys about it.
Their expressions told her they would not let her off easily if she did not come up with a valid reason.
Right then. Madilyn’s confused expression returned. “Lucian invited you to a concert? Is he… changing his ways?”
She was well aware of the drama between Roxanne and Lucian that had been going on for six years until now.
Madilyn still could not bring herself to forgive Lucian for treating Roxanne so coldly six years ago.
At first, Madilyn thought Roxanne and Lucian would not be in touch when Roxanne returned. To her surprise, the drama still carried on.
On top of that, she realized Lucian had been the one taking the initiative to contact Roxanne.
At that thought, Madilyn could not help but ask, “What exactly is going on between you two?”
Roxanne’s heart trembled, and she looked troubled. “I don’t know what’s on his mind, either.”
Madilyn was heartbroken when she saw Roxanne’s expression.
