Chapter 668
Chapter 668
The concert hadn’t started when Lucian and Roxanne brought the children inside.
Theirs were VIP seats, and it was a spot with a small, round, exquisite table. There was only one chair on both sides of the table.
Roxanne asked a server to bring three additional chairs for the children to sit between her and Lucian. That way, it would be
easier for them to take care of the children’s needs at all times.
Looking at the seat arrangement, Estella glanced at her father and an idea popped into her mind. She turned around and
carefully tugged Roxanne’s arm.
Roxanne looked at her, confused.
“| can’t see the stage clearly, Ms. Jarvis…” Estella looked at Roxanne pitifully.
Upon hearing that, Roxanne knitted her brows and glanced at everyone’s seats. She had put Estella there because it would be
easier to take care of her, but she had failed to notice how difficult it would be for the girl to see the stage.
Without hesitation, she stood up and switched places with Estella.
Estella secretly grinned when she saw her father and Roxanne getting closer.
Noticing their sister’s intention, Archie and Benny exchanged a glance before looking at their mother in unison.
“Mommy, we want to sit with Essie!” The boys tugged the hem of Roxanne’s dress.
Roxanne was about to agree when she abruptly realized if she did that, she would be sitting very close to Lucian.
She hesitated.
However, the boys were looking at her with such pitiful looks that they looked as though they were about to cry.
Roxanne glanced at Estella, who was sitting next to her, and saw her staring at the boys with the same look of anticipation.
Clearly, they really wanted to sit with each other.
Meanwhile, Lucian seemed completely oblivious to what was going on. He was utterly focused on the stage, waiting for the
performance to start.
Roxanne hesitated for a long while before she eventually decided to switch places with the boys and let them sit next to Estella.
“You three must keep quiet when the performance starts later, okay? And don’t run around,” she reminded the children worriedly.
While she knew they were usually pretty obedient, she was worried that they would get too excited, forget where they were, and
disturb other people. It was a real concern for her since they
had switched places with her and were sitting behind her and Lucian at the moment.
The children nodded seriously.
Only then did Roxanne relax slightly and sit next to Lucian.
The moment she sat down, Lucian, who had been focused on the stage, abruptly turned to look at her.
Roxanne was caught off guard and felt guilty for some reasons. She hastily explained, “The children couldn’t get a better look at
the stage, so…”
Even though the children were the ones who had asked to switch places with her, she was worried he would misunderstand
something since he didn’t seem to know what was going on.
Thankfully, after listening to her explanation, Lucian only glanced at the children behind her with a frown.
Estella stuck her tongue out at him to indicate that it was all her plan.
Lucian raised an eyebrow imperceptibly when he saw that. Then he averted his gaze from his daughter and looked at the woman
in front of him. “I suppose it was difficult for them to see clearly due to their short stature. | wasn’t being considerate enough.”
Hearing that, Roxanne inwardly sighed with relief and gave him a small smile.
The three children, sitting behind and looking at the intimate distance between the adults, exchanged glances and grinned from
ear to ear.
