Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 10

Chapter 10 He Might Have Recognized You

The four of them then returned to the mansion.

Roxanne and the two children were so hungry that they gobbled up all the leftovers Madilyn brought from the restaurant.

After dinner, the children went upstairs to take a shower.

Madilyn cast a doubtful look at her best friend. “Why are you running away from him? I don’t get it. I thought you two had a divorce agreement? Why are you so afraid of him? And you didn’t tell me why you divorced him. What exactly happened in the last few years?”

After meeting her gaze, Roxanne lowered her eyes and hesitated for a moment. She decided to roughly tell Madilyn the story.

“Oh, my God! No, you didn’t!”

Never in a million years did Madilyn think Roxanne would drug Lucian and give birth to his children.

So that’s why she ran away when she heard his name!

Roxanne bit her lower lip and looked agonized. “I don’t want him to know about Benny and Archie. Besides, I’m still worried that he would still hold grudges against me for drugging him. People with an identity like his can easily take revenge against me as long as he wants to. I wouldn’t be afraid of facing the consequences if I were alone. But now that I have two kids, I have to act responsibly.”

She flashed a self-deprecating smile and continued, “Maybe it’s just me overthinking. He might not even give a damn about it. I’m just a nobody anyway.”

“That’s what you thought!” Madilyn knitted her brows. “I think he recognized your voice. When he went in just now, he asked where you were. It seems he was coming after you!”

Roxanne was stunned for a bit upon hearing that. She felt a prickly pain in her heart.

He must have hated me for what I did that night. I bet that’s the only feeling he has for me.

Upon seeing how upset her best friend was, Madilyn consoled her. “Don’t worry, Roxanne. I’m sure you won’t bump into him so easily since Horington is a big city, and your jobs aren’t really related either.”

Roxanne nodded, hoping luck would be on her side.
