Chapter 778 So Cruel To Abandon An Adorable Daughter

Frightened, Roxanne truly did as he said and remained still for a long while. After coming back to her senses, she began struggling again. In the next second, Lucian pinned her

beneath him.

“I’ve already warned you, but still, you couldn’t stay still. If you were to wriggle around again this time, I wouldn’t be able to make any promises about what would happen.” He

leaned close to her, his eyes narrowing dangerously.

Roxanne’s heart tightened as she stared at the man’s countenance that was mere inches away from her. She wanted to struggle, but she was worried about his words earlier.

Just as she was at a loss, sudden movement sounded from the children’s room out of the blue. Both their breaths caught.

As the sounds of the footsteps drew increasingly nearer to the door, Lucian’s brows scrunched together. Dropping his hold on the woman in his arms, he resumed a proper

sitting position expressionlessly.

Finally, Roxanne was free of the man’s restraint. Before she could breathe a sigh of relief, she heard the click of the children’s room door opening.

When the thought of the distance between her and Lucian then occurred to her, her heart jolted once more. She hastily sprang up from the couch and stood at the side.

In the next heartbeat, the children’s room door slowly opened. Benny plodded out of the room groggily while muttering, “Mommy…”

He was sick in the first place and wasn’t feeling well, so even his sleep wasn’t that peaceful. He automatically woke up after sleeping for a while and subconsciously wanted to

seek his mother out.

At his juvenile voice, Roxanne swept a gaze over Lucian on the couch before she hastened over to him. “I’m here. What’s wrong?”

Benny burrowed into her embrace. As he sensed the warmth of her hug, drowsiness assailed him again.

“Why are you here, Mommy?” Vaguely making out Lucian’s back on the couch, he sensed something amiss. But he could only mumble that question since he was so sleepy

that he couldn’t keep his eyes open anymore.

Hearing his question, Roxanne couldn’t help recalling her experience a moment ago. She stiffened slightly. “I came out to get some water.”

Benny frowned suspiciously, still finding something off about it all. Nonetheless, he couldn’t be bothered to dwell upon it as drowsiness flooded him. His head tipped to the side,

and he fell asleep in her arms.

Sensing a heaviness on her shoulder, Roxanne breathed a sigh of relief. She lifted her hand and stroked his head. Carrying him in her arms, she went into the room.

Both Archie and Estella were sleeping soundly, their sleep undisrupted by Benny.

Roxanne placed Benny back onto the bed before tucking the blankets around the other two children.

She touched their foreheads, only to discover that their fever had subsided. Relief flashed across her eyes.

As she gazed at their sleeping countenances, the pressure brought by Lucian earlier gradually faded.

Seeing that it was already late, with only an hour left until dawn broke, she decided to stay in their room and keep watch over them.

If I were to return to Lysa’s room, I’d have to go past the living room. In other words, I’d inevitably bump into Lucian again. After what happened just now, I really don’t know

how to face him anymore.

Following that line of thought, Roxanne felt a sense of heaviness within her.

On the bed, Estella suddenly turned over.

The movement snagged her attention, and Roxanne slowly snapped back to her senses, thinking that the little girl was about to rouse.

But in the next second, she heard Estella muttering pitifully, “Mommy…”

At her voice, Roxanne’s heart clenched painfully.

From what Lucian said, she had seemingly never laid eyes on her mother from the moment she was born. I wonder what kind of woman it was who could be so cruel to

abandon such an adorable daughter…
