Chapter 1067 Only Friends

After Archie found Estella, he summoned Benny. “Let’s head inside and listen to what Mommy is talking about with

Mr. Damaris.” Upon hearing that suggestion, the other two agreed.

They opened the door carefully and saw Roxanne sitting on the single-seat couch and chatting with Jack. Both

adults had a smile on their faces.

The alarm bells in the children’s minds rang loudly the instant they noticed the faint smile on Roxanne’s face.

Estella acted against her usual behavior and sprinted straight to Roxanne’s side.

“Essie?” It was only then Roxanne noticed the children had returned. Jack gave Roxanne and Estella the once-over

and said half-intentionally, “I can see the resemblance even clearer like this.”

That sent Roxanne into a panic. Innocently, Estella asked Roxanne, “What resemblance, Ms. Jarvis?”

Roxanne patted her head, shot a look at Jack, and said, “It’s nothing. It’s just a random comment from Mr.

Damaris.” Then she stood up and faced Jack. “Is there anything else, Mr. Damaris?”

Of course, as a veteran in the business industry, he could tell she was hinting for him to leave. He smiled at the kids

and said, “It’s almost noon. Even though I’ve known the boys for a long while now, I still haven’t had the chance to

treat them to a meal. How about we all have lunch together today?” Then he looked at Estella meaningfully. “It just

so happens that Mr. Farwell’s daughter is here, so consider this my invitation to him for a meal.”

Roxanne felt uncomfortable upon hearing that. Is he implying something? Also, his pretext for inviting the children

to lunch is so strange.

At that thought, she was ready to reject the offer on the children’s behalf.

To her surprise, before she could speak, Estella’s voice rang out. “Thank you, Mr. Damaris, but I much prefer Ms.

Jarvis’ cooking!”

The boys nodded in agreement.

Their rejection was direct, which prompted Jack to raise his eyebrow.

Roxanne was stunned for a few seconds before she returned to her senses and smiled at Jack apologetically. “I’m

sorry. Mr. Farwell will be here soon to pick up Essie, so there’s not enough time for lunch outside. Next time,

perhaps?”

Jack nodded nonchalantly and rose to his feet. “Very well, then. I’ll take my leave now.”

Roxanne proceeded to send him out with the children.

Once Jack’s car was far enough away, the children glanced at Roxanne before returning to the living room in

unison.

The sight of the flowers still lying on the couch made their faces fall.

Roxanne was confounded by their reaction until she realized they were staring at the flowers.

She could tell what the children were thinking. They want me to be with Lucian. While I don’t think of Jack the way

they assume I do, I don’t have a future with Lucian. Yet, I can’t help but feel guilty when I face them.

“Ms. Jarvis…” Estella lowered her eyes with disappointment and tugged at the hem of Roxanne’s shirt.

Squatting down, Roxanne looked at her. “What’s the matter?”

“Is it because you want to be with Mr. Damaris that you can’t be my mommy?” The girl sounded aggrieved.

Roxanne was taken aback by that question. “Mr. Damaris and I are only friends.”

“You accepted Mr. Damaris’ flower but not Daddy’s.” I still remember Ms. Jarvis almost returned the roses Daddy

bought for her when we went to a concert.

For a moment, Roxanne wasn’t sure how to answer that question.

Her conversation about work with Jack and the sudden return of the children had diverted her attention from the

presence of the flowers. She had completely forgotten about it.

If the children hadn’t cared so much about it, she wouldn’t have remembered it.

Roxanne’s silence prompted Estella to tilt her head thoughtfully and question, “Is it because you like baby’s breath

and not roses?”
