Mission To Remarry

Roxanne contemplated her best friend's words and thought it made sense. Thus, she stopped speaking.

Meanwhile, when Madilyn registered the point she made, she believed Lucian hadn't done enough to make up for the fright her best friend and the children endured.

In a concerned tone, she advised, “While the public's focus has been shifted away, it'll still be for the best if all of you stay out of the media's sight for the time being.”

Roxanne nodded in agreement. “I don't think it'll be a problem. In my case, I'll only be either at home or at the research institute, so unless the reporters specifically sought me out—”

“That's what I'm worried about!” Madilyn interrupted. “I'm concerned some reporters won't give up!”

That outburst stunned Roxanne because she had more to say.

Lucian's expression darkened slightly while he gripped Roxanne's hand as though no one was around. “For now, you shouldn't go to the research institute anymore. Just in case.”

Upon detecting his movement, she felt her heart clenching. As she glanced at her friend, she tried pulling her hand away, but he was stronger than her. Hence, she reluctantly and awkwardly allowed him to keep holding her hand.
