Leaving The Country After Divorce

Upon leaving the research institute, Roxanne and Lucian went to pick up the children from school.

When the school's management saw the two of them, they seized the opportunity to sincerely apologize for what happened.

From their explanation, Lucian and Roxanne learned that the vice principal who was bribed by Dave had been sacked.

Moreover, the four students who bullied Archie and Benny were also asked to leave the school.

On top of that, the school was reevaluating its disciplinary policies to prevent a repeat of similar incidents.

In the end, Lucian and Roxanne accepted their apology begrudgingly. They didn't want to burn any bridges, as the school did provide a conducive learning environment for the children.

Finally, they returned to the manor with the children after declining an invitation to dinner from the school management.

Arriving at the gate, they were greeted by the sight of Grant pacing back and forth.
