Leaving The Country After Divorce (Lucian and Roxanne) novel Chapter 702

Chapter 702 Refrain From Eating That

“Hello, Mr. Farwell,” Archie and Benny greeted when they came to their senses.

Lucian nodded slightly. “Is your mommy not back yet?”

The kids nodded obediently and glanced at each other guiltily. They had thought

that it was Roxanne who had returned and almost screamed when they opened

the door.

Fortunately, Estella had greeted Lucian first, saving them from embarrassing

themselves. Lucian’s frown deepened when he saw their reactions. “What did

you guys have for lunch, then?”

As he asked, he scanned the house and saw the bucket of fried chicken on the

dining table.

“We had drumsticks!” Estella was still reveling in the excitement of eating fast

food for the first time and did not realize the look on Lucian’s face. “It was

delicious!”

Lucian’s eyes darkened when he heard his daughter’s answer. He then lowered

his head and looked at the three children. Not only were their faces covered in

grease, but they were also all smiling in satisfaction.

Evidently, they were extremely happy with what they had for lunch. Lucian

suppressed his anger and asked in a deep voice, “Who sent them?”

Estella turned toward Archie and Benny. Although she knew Madilyn, she didn’t

know how to introduce her to Lucian. Seeing that Estella was keeping mum,

Lucian thought the children had ordered takeout on their own.

Right then, Benny piped up, “It was our godmother! Mommy told her to send us

food.”

Lucian knitted his brows and gave it some thought. I think I know who their

godmother is. Disdain flashed across Lucian’s eyes when he recalled the

previous time he met Madilyn. That woman doesn’t look reliable.

moment she approached him.

Estella felt even more aggrieved when he did that.

“Take off your gloves. They’re dirty,” Lucian said.

Only then did Estella realize what was going on. She slowly took off her pair of

gloves, then returned to stand before Lucian once again after Archie and Benny

brought her away to wash her hands.

This time, Lucian didn’t stop her from approaching him.

Estella tugged at Lucian’s shirt sleeve and uttered in a piping voice, “Why is it

that Archie and Benny are allowed to—”

Hearing that she was asking about the fried chicken again, Lucian interrupted

expressionlessly, “They’ll have to refrain from eating that from now on.”

Archie’s and Benny’s faces fell. Daddy is good in any way, but he abandoned us

in the past, and now, he’s even stopping us from eating fried chicken…
