Mission To Remarry

The two of them had been apart for six years. After bumping into each other again, Roxanne had been averse to Lucian's touch.

Since she had finally accepted him, Lucian naturally yearned to make up for the past six years all at once.

He initially planned on giving her two days to recover, but he hadn't expected her to be so enthralling that day.

Both her seriousness when she negotiated with Jack and the expression of her love for him while shopping tested his restraint tremendously.

The moment he saw her wearing the dress he personally picked earlier, his control slipped further.

The kiss lasted for so long that Roxanne was close to suffocating. That aside, she was afraid Catalina and the children would return without warning. Thus, she lifted her hands and shoved at him.

It wasn't until then that Lucian dropped his hand from the back of her head and brushed his fingers across her lips.

Roxanne backed away slightly. “What's with you?”

Clocking the intense love in his eyes, she inexorably recalled their passionate interlude the night before. Her heart immediately skipped a beat.

“Since Mr. and Mrs. Farwell have moved out, the guest room should be vacant today. I'll go and change the sheets. I'll take the guest room tonight!” she murmured guiltily.

After saying that, she spun around to make a run for it.
