Mission To Remarry

Chapter 733 Waiting For Her Response

Jonathan smiled meaningfully when he heard his friend’s words. “You can’t come alone. The person my grandpa is helping is Dr. Jarvis, so you must bring her along.”

Lucian responded with a light chuckle, “I plan on doing that.” After engaging in small talk for a while longer, the two hung up. Lucian turned around and went back into the living room.

By then, Roxanne was done making dinner and was sitting at the dining table with the children, waiting for him to go over and eat together.

A hint of warmth flitted across Lucian’s eyes when he saw the scene before him. He walked over and—upon noticing the extra plate and cutlery on the table—asked knowingly, “Did you prepare this for me, Ms. Jarvis?”

Roxanne nodded gently in response. “Since I’m troubling you to ferry Archie and Benny to and fro from school for the next few days, Mr. Farwell, you can have dinner at my place.”

Before Lucian could respond, Estella threw up her hands joyfully. “Thank you, Ms. Jarvis!”

Roxanne smiled, feeling much more relaxed than before, as she watched the young girl’s delight.
