His And Her Marriage Novel Chapter 22 – Once the two boys were upstairs, the smile on Roxanne’s face slowly
faded. Madilyn turned off the television and inched over to ask in concern, “What’s the matter? Something on your mind?”
After a moment of hesitation, Roxanne told Madilyn a lighthearted version of what happened earlier. “I met Lucian when I was having dinner just
now.” There was no one but Madilyn who Roxanne could talk to about what happened six years ago.
Upon hearing that, Madilyn froze. Then, she whispered, “What kind of fate is tying you both together? Horington is such a big city, and I thought the
chances of the two of you meeting would be close to zero if you’re not actively seeking each other out.”
Roxanne lowered her eyes, seemingly deep in her thoughts. “So, what are you thinking about after meeting him?” Madilyn continued
querying. The corners of Roxanne’s lip turned down. “What can possibly be on my mind? My relationship with him has ended six years ago.
We’re nothing but strangers now. I won’t be affected by him anymore. All I want to do for the rest of my days is to take care of Archie and Benny and have a good life with them.” It seemed like she had thought things through.
Madilyn sighed in relief before patting her good friend’s shoulders. “That’s good. You’re an excellent woman, and there are plenty of people courting
you. Take your time to make your pick. Let’s leave that douchebag in the past.” Roxanne gave her a slight nod, not wanting to continue with the topic.
She then said, “By the way, I haven’t had the chance to buy a car after coming back here. I had to get rides from my coworkers for the welcome
party today, and it seems rather inconvenient. Are you free next morning to pick a car with me?”
adilyn’s attention was shifted to the next topic, but she was confused as to why Roxanne wanted to buy a car. “Why do you want to buy a car? I have a few in the garage. Just pick one.” Roxanne chuckled as she arched a brow. “Are you really that generous?”
After sharing a look, Madilyn wrapped her arm around Roxanne’s neck and uttered, “Of course. After all, you’re my godsons’ mother! What’s
mine is yours!” “Thank you, then,” Roxanne said to her. The two chatted away for a while longer. When they glanced at the time again,
it was already quite late. It was then Madilyn reluctantly went back to the house next door.
After Roxanne washed up, she lay on the bed. However, she could not sleep.
It took her a long while of tossing and turning before she entered the
dreamlands.
In her dream, she returned to the empty room at The Waterfront.
In the room. Lucian was pinning her against the wall. He was narrowing
his eyes and coming closer and closer to her.
Just as their lips were about to touch, Roxanne jolted awake, completely
drenched in sweat.
After waking from that dream, she could no longer sleep.
Thus, the next morning, Roxanne had obvious dark eye circles as she sat
by her children’s side at the dining table while they were having breakfast.
“Mommy, did you not sleep well last night?” Archie asked in concern as
he stared at his mother’s dark circles.
Roxanne tensed up a little as she thought about that dream. A few
seconds later, she flashed them a leisure smile. “Yes. I lost track of time
reading documents last night.”
Her children were observant individuals, and Roxanne was afraid that
they would prod her for more information. Hence, she quickly lowered her
head and pretended to focus on eating breakfast.
At that, the two boys exchanged a look but asked nothing else. All they
said was, “Don’t tire yourself out too much, Mommy. You have to take
good care of yourself.”
Roxanne’s lips curved as she bobbed her head in agreement.
After breakfast, she brought the boys to Madilyn’s place again.
“Choose anything you like. Don’t worry about anything.” Madilyn brought
them to her garage as she held onto the whole bunch of car keys in her
hands.
The boys were young, but they could recognize quite an amount of luxury
cars. Therefore, once they laid eyes on the cars in the garage, they
applauded and cried out, “Aunt Madilyn, you’re amazing!”
After walking around the garage, Roxanne chose a mid-ranged priced
Mercedes-Benz that was worth over a million.
Madilyn gave her the keys without any trace of hesitance.
Once Roxanne got the car, she drove the two to their kindergarten.
“Bye, Mommy! Don’t overwork yourself!” the two said to her after they
went down from the car.
Roxanne ruffled their hair. “You too. Be good at school. I’ll come and pick
you up at night.”
The two boys nodded obediently and walked into the kindergarten
together.
Roxanne only left after watching the two disappear from her line of sight.
She then started the car and slowly drove away from the kindergarten’s
gate.
‘I wo minutes later, a Rolls-Royce rolled up in front of the kindergarten’s
entrance.
Cayden came down from the car before opening the door to the backseat.
Then, he carefully carried Estella down.
Once Estella’s feet were on the ground, she turned to wave at her father.
“Go in now,” Lucian softly said to her as he patted her head.
Estella nodded in response before turning to leave.
Suspicion crept into Lucian’s eyes as be watched Estella leave the car.
Estella seemed much happier than usual.
Maybe she’s letting down her guard after interacting with the kids in the
kindergarten. It seems like the psychiatrist was right. Her autistic
symptoms will improve if I let her interact more with her peers.
