The group soon left the hotel in the middle of the night and headed back to the city.

It was different from how they arrived. On the way home, Archie sat in the front passenger seat in order to allow

Roxanne to sit comfortably while Estella and Benny accompanied Roxanne in the back seat.

All three children kept staring at her injured foot, and Roxanne did not know whether to cry at that.

They finally arrived at the entrance of the mansion. With her hand on the car seat to support her, Roxanne carefully

tried to get out of the car. Just as she reached the door, a pair of big hands reached out and were placed on her

waist, carrying her up.

Roxanne was stunned for a few seconds. However, after realizing that the kids had already seen this happen many

times after she got injured and probably wouldn‘t think much of it, there was no need for her to reject Lucian.

Therefore, she allowed him to carry her into the mansion.

Just as they entered, Lysa walked over to meet them. When she saw that Roxanne was in Lucian‘s arms, her eyes

were filled with surprise. “What‘s going on? Are you sick, Ms. Jarvis?”

The children rushed to explain, “Mommy hurt her foot.”





Upon hearing that, Lysa looked at Roxanne‘s feet with worry evident in her eyes. She noticed that a shoe was

dangling off one of the latter‘s feel and there was gauze wrapped around it.

Lysa‘s face was full of worry as she helped Lucian to place Roxanne down on the couch. “How did you injure

yourself so badly?” she asked in concern.

Roxanne responded with a comforting smile. “I accidentally scraped my foot on a seashell. It‘s not a big deal. It‘ll

heal after resting at home for two days.”

Regardless, the worried expression on Lysa‘s face did not fade. “It‘s fortunate that you were there with Ms. Jarvis,

Mr. Farwell. Thank you for sending her back even though it‘s so late,” she thanked Lucian.

Lucian nodded and replied, “Please take good care of her these two days. Try not to let her walk, and keep her

wound dry.”

Lysa agreed at once.

A weird feeling rose in Roxanne‘s heart when she noticed that Lucian was acting like the head of the house. “It‘s

getting late. You should take Essie home soon, Mr. Farwell. I‘ll thank you properly for everything you did today,” she

piped up.

Her words triggered a grim expression on Lucian‘s face.

Even though they had been interacting a lot these two days, Roxanne was still cold to him.

He had already gone to such lengths for her, and yet she was still trying to push him as far away as possible.

Estella cast her gaze downward. She carefully tugged onto Roxanne‘s shirt and said. “Ms. larvis. I want to stay with

you,” she said with a pleading expression.

She was really worried about Roxanne‘s wound.

Roxanne‘s heart softened at the sight, but she still stayed firm on her decision. “Be good, Essie. It‘s late. Go home

with Daddy.”

“But you‘re hurt...” Estella looked up at her with tears welling in her eyes.

Roxanne‘s heart ached terribly.

She knew that the young girl was incredibly worried for her, but she knew that she had to maintain a distance from

both Lucian and Estella.

Before Roxanne could even reply, Estella sniffled. She was about to burst into tears soon.



“If you‘re worried about me, you can come and visit me another day, Essie.” After a few seconds of silence,

Roxanne still caved in.

Estella looked at her with doubtful eyes. “Really? I can come?” she questioned with a sob.

A sorrowful feeling filled Roxanne‘s heart as she patted Estella on her head. “Yes,” she said firmly.

Hearing Roxanne‘s promise, Estella longingly nodded and went to hold Lucian‘s hand.
