Chapter 1066 A Coworker Sending Flowers After breakfast, Roxanne was afraid the children would say anything inappropriate, so she asked them to play outside. Jack was still waiting in the living room. She cleaned up the dining room, then sat next to him.
“The mother of Mr. Farwell’s daughter has always been mysterious.” Jack’s voice rang out abruptly. Roxanne was stunned. She did not understand why he suddenly brought that topic up.

“You two resemble each other. Or maybe I'm just overthinking it. Good-looking people tend to have similar features, after all.” Jack smiled, his words seemingly ambiguous and implying something.
Furrowing her eyebrows slightly, Roxanne kept her composure and changed the topic. “How did the medical consultation go yesterday, by the way?” Jack sensed her anxiety and gazed at her meaningfully for a few seconds, making her feel uneasy.

As Archie moved closer, she abruptly ran out from behind the car. “Why are you here, Essie?” Archie's eyes lit up. Estella lowered her head guiltily and muttered, “I... | just want to play hide and seek.” Archie took in the girl's expression. While he found her demeanor odd, he didn’t give it too much thought. “If you want to play hide and seek, we can play with you. But you must inform us beforehand if you're going somewhere next time.” Estella nodded obediently.
