Mission To Remarry Chapter 1279
As Lucian drove back to the Farwell residence, he was still in a foul mood.
Mom really trusts Aubree too much! It’s so bad that she belittled Roxanne in such a manner!
Even until he arrived back at the manor, his expression remained as black as thunder.
Roxanne’s message came in when he alighted from the car.
The moment he saw her name on the screen, his expression eased. He tapped on the notification and took a look
at the message.
It read: The kids are clamoring to go to the amusement park to have fun. When are you free?
Through the words alone, Lucian could sense her reluctance when she sent that message.
She probably only sent it because the kids were pestering her, and she had no other choice.
Even so, his mood improved by leaps and bounds. He was even gripped by the urge to tease her.

Right then, Roxanne was surrounded by Archie, Benny, and Estella.
“Has Mr. Farwell said anything yet, Mommy?”
“Is Mr. Farwell going to the amusement park with us? We want to go with him!”
Archie and Benny gazed at her earnestly.
Estella, on the other hand, had climbed onto the couch. Clinging onto Roxanne’s shoulders, she fixed her eyes on
the phone screen in curiosity.
Meanwhile, Roxanne wore a conflicted expression on her face.
Gah! I’ve got no idea what they were thinking to suddenly make a fuss about going to the amusement park. On top
of that, they kept saying that they wanted to go with Lucian and bugged me to ask the man. Worse still, they
refused to sleep before receiving an answer from him!
Left with no other recourse, she could only text Lucian.
That was the first time she took the initiative to do so after they parted ways on a sour note.
For a moment, she felt very much uneasy, and anxiety lingered within her.
They waited for an indeterminate time before her phone finally lit up with a reply from Lucian.
All three children’s eyes likewise lit up. They all crowded over to have a look at the message.
Without giving it much thought, Roxanne tapped on the chat interface.
The instant she saw Lucian’s reply, her face flushed bright red even as she frantically locked her phone screen.
The children were distinctly disappointed that they didn’t get to read their father’s answer.
“What did Mr. Farwell say, Mommy? Why can’t we have a look?” Benny couldn’t resist asking.
Roxanne guiltily flashed them all a smile. “It’s nothing…”
“Is Daddy going with us, then?” Estella pressed in a sweet voice.
Roxanne mulled over Lucian’s reply, the blush on her face intensifying. “He… Well, I’ll ask him again.”
After saying that, she turned away from the children and texted the man where they couldn’t see: The kids had me

At her reply, Lucian arched a brow and chuckled. He sent her a voice message. “If you’re asking me out, I naturally
won’t decline.”
Seeing that it was a voice message, Roxanne felt the onset of a headache as she glanced at the children
surrounding her.
A while later, she carefully converted it into text. Skimming her eyes over his reply, she nodded at the children. “He
said okay.”
Immediately, all three children jumped for joy.
Forcibly feigning calmness, Roxanne ordered them upstairs to rest while she returned to her room helplessly.
She proceeded to stare at the voice message. In the end, she couldn’t help playing it.
With a tap from the tip of her finger, Lucian’s deep voice rang out in the room.
She merely listened to it once before she tossed her phone to the side, her face flaming.
I’ve already told him that it was the kids’ request! How could he be so shameless?
