Mission To Remarry novel Chapter 653

Chapter 653 Misunderstand

Pin-drop silence ensued in the car once again. Suddenly, Roxanne’s phone lit up. It was a message from Larry, asking her if she had arrived home. Even though Larry was not physically in front of her at that moment, a courteous smile still spread across her face when she saw him showing concern for her. She replied: I’m still on the way back.

A second later, he responded back: Let me know when you’re home. Roxanne agreed while beaming. Lucian noticed the illuminated screen of her phone and turned to glance in her direction. Then, he caught sight of the faint smile on her face.

Following her line of vision, he saw Larry’s name on the top of her screen. Evidently, she was texting Larry. Lucian’s mood, which had just slightly improved, plummeted again following the observation.

In what way am I lacking? Roxanne grins so happily even when replying to Larry’s message, yet whenever she’s around me, she always behaves warily.

At that thought, the temperature around Lucian dropped gradually. By the time Roxanne was done responding to her messages and kept her phone, she sensitively detected the tense atmosphere inside the car. Just as she recalled what she could have possibly done to offend Lucian, his voice rang out beside her.

“It seems you’re still maintaining a close relationship with Mr. Morrison, Ms. Jarvis.” Roxanne was stunned after hearing that.

She swiftly realized Lucian must have seen her texting Larry. Her expression abruptly turned gloomy.

“Mr. Farwell, isn’t it inappropriate for you to peek while I’m using my phone?”

An unfathomable look gleamed in his eyes.

“I don’t need you to cooperate with me, but you’ll have to keep a distance from other men for the time being.” His ridiculous request amused her.

“As you’ve mentioned, you’re my suitor, so what right do you have to restrict me from associating with other men? I don’t think there’s any problem even if I wish to accept the courtships from a few men at the same time.”

Lucian furrowed his brows. When he heard Roxanne announcing her hypothetical wish to accept the courtships from a few men, his temper instinctively flared but he managed to contain his anger at the last minute.
