Leaving The Country After Divorce

Chapter 690

Archie and Benny were fairly independent boys, having gotten used to Roxanne’s long work hours.

After a short discussion about Jack and Lucian, the boys quickly washed up and warmed some milk and bread for breakfast.

The doorbell suddenly rang just as they finished eating.

Archie and Benny exchanged a wary glance. When they switched on the video intercom, they saw Estella waving sweetly at the camera.

The boys instantly smiled and opened the door for their precious Essie.

Outside, Lucian stood beside Estella and held her hand.

Benny could not help but feel sheepish when he spotted the subject of his discussion.

To his credit, Archie remained calm and greeted Lucian politely. “Good morning, Mr. Farwell and Essie.”

“Good morning, Archie and Benny!” Estella was thrilled to meet the boys early in the morning, and she had a radiant smile to show for it.
