Leaving The Country After Divorce

Chapter 1263

how can his suspicious activities be explained?A long while passed before he corralled his thoughts.Anyway, the most important thing now is to have Colby pay the price for his actions!“Got it. You may be dismissed.”Putting the purchase order away, Lucian got to his feet and headed out.He had figured out a way to have Colby confess to his crime even without solid evidence.However, he needed to seek Roxanne out and discuss it with her.Cayden had no idea what his employer wanted to do, but still, he obediently left the office and watched as Lucian went into the elevator. After stepping out of the office building, Lucian drove straight to Roxanne’s house.It happened to be dinnertime right then.When Lucian arrived, Roxanne was preparing dinner for Archie, Benny, and Estella in the kitchen. As such, it was the children who opened the door for him.“Mr. Farwell!”“Daddy!”At the sight of him, all three children wore expressions of joy.Smiling, Lucian stroked their heads before sweeping his gaze around the living room. “Where’s your mommy?”Archie pointed in the direction of the kitchen. “In the kitchen.”Upon hearing that, Lucian inclined his head a fraction in acknowledgment. He excused himself before heading to the kitchen.The three children looked at each other, but ultimately, they didn’t follow. Nonetheless, they still fixated their gazes on the kitchen in curiosity.When Lucian reached the kitchen door, he didn’t go in directly or say anything. Instead, he merely stood there quietly and watched Roxanne bustle around.As soon as Roxanne whirled around and spotted the man behind her, she inexorably jumped in fright. “When did you come? And why didn’t you inform me beforehand?”Gathering her wits about her, she inwardly breathed a sigh of relief and continued her work at hand.Lucian’s eyes brimmed with tenderness. “Just a while ago. The kids opened the door for me.”After saying that, he glanced at the ingredients she was preparing. “Did you count me in?”Roxanne wanted to deny it, but the portion she prepared was evidently too much for her and the children to finish. Thus, she didn’t answer but asked, “Are you not eating here tonight?”At that, Lucian arched a brow. “From the look of things, you counted me in. How embarrassing that I’ve been eating for free these few days!”Sensing that there was a hidden implication in his words, Roxanne stilled.
