Chapter 1287

Roxanne wanted to send them upstairs to rest when the doorbell suddenly rang.

Archie and Benny thought it was Lucian returning with Estella. They ran to open the door excitedly despite Roxanne

stopping them.

When they saw the person standing before them at the door, they were taken aback.

“Where’s Roxanne?”

Sonya glanced at the children in disdain.

Archie and Benny were disappointed when they were suddenly met with their grandmother’s overt dislike after just

having a great time with Lucian. The smile on their faces gradually faded, replaced by a wary expression.

Sonya didn’t expect them to reply. She turned to look at the living room after asking the question and immediately

saw Roxanne, who was walking over.

As soon as Roxanne heard Sonya’s voice inside the house, she hurried outside out of concern for her children.

“Mrs. Farwell, it’s late. Is something the matter?”

She proceeded to shield the kids behind her back calmly before meeting Sonya’s eyes coolly.

Sonya sized her up. “Let’s go in and talk.”

A crease appeared between Roxanne’s brows. After a moment of hesitation, she stood aside for Sonya to come in.

It’s just Sonya by herself. She will, at most, utter a few unpleasant words.

If she were to be with Lucian, she would have to face Sonya sooner or later.

When the kids saw that Roxanne had let Sonya in, they felt slightly nervous and worried that Sonya would bully her,

just like Aubree and Frieda had.

Roxanne watched Sonya sit on the couch and squatted down to look at Archie and Benny. “You guys head on

upstairs and get some rest. I have some words to say to her.”

Archie grabbed his mother’s hand with concern. “We want to accompany you!”

Benny nodded fervently.

Roxanne felt warmth in her heart when she saw how worried the kids were. She gave them reassuring pats on their

heads. “Don’t worry. We’re only talking. Nothing will happen. You guys have played the entire day and must be

tired. Go upstairs and wash up.”

The two boys were still slightly reluctant.

Feeling helpless, Roxanne turned to glance at Sonya.



Seeing that Sonya was not looking at them, she promised the kids, “Even if we fight, she’s no match for me. You

guys know that.”

The boys recalled Roxanne defending herself against two people and finally nodded.

Before they headed upstairs, the kids greeted Sonya politely, “Good night, Mrs. Farwell.”

Sonya snorted and pretended as if she didn’t hear or see them.

The kids felt disappointed but didn’t say anything. They turned around and headed upstairs.

Roxanne walked into the living room after that. She brewed Sonya and herself a cup of coffee and sat on the couch

beside her.

“It’s just the two of us now. You don’t have to pretend anymore. I’m not falling for it!”

Sonya glanced at the cup of coffee Roxanne had placed in front of her. She had no intention of hiding her disdain

for Roxanne.

Roxanne replied calmly, “It’s basic courtesy. Even if it’s Ms. Pearson here, I’ll do the same. If you don’t like it, you

don’t have to drink it.”

Sonya trembled with rage upon seeing Roxanne’s nonchalant demeanor. She pushed the cup of coffee away and

looked at Roxanne coldly. “Tell me, what does it take for you to stay away from my son? Is it money that you’re

after? No matter the request, I’ll satisfy you if I can do it.”
