Chapter 1065 How Are We Born Roxanne released a sigh of relief in her heart as she stepped into the kitchen alone. Thank goodness Essie cto my rescue. | hope Jack won't think | was being impertinent for not directly accepting his flowers.
Inside the living room, when Jack sat on the couch, he placed the flowers in his hand next to him. The children looked at him from a distance.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUpon sensing their gaze, Jack lifted his eyebrow and faced the boys. “Do you two like the presents | gifted you?” The boys exchanged a glance.
They didn’t open Jack’s gifts because they saw him as a potential love rival to Lucian. Despite their animosity toward him, they felt compelled to answer his question amiably.
Archie smiled at him. “It’s really fun. Thank you, Mr. Damaris.” Hearing that, Estella snorted imperceptibly.
While it was the first tshe had met Jack, the alarm bells in her mind hadn't stopped ringing since he first appeared. This guy is doing the sthing Daddy did when he was courting Ms. Jarvis. He visited Ms. Jarvis early in the morning because he was supposedly concerned about her health. Then, he openly gifted her flowers! He must be pursuing Ms. Jarvis! She was enraged as she thought about how proactive Jack was and how her father was still angry at Roxanne.
Archie and Benny could tell she was furious and why.
“Mr. Damaris, | once saw on the television that flowers are only given to people you like. So why did you buy Mommy flowers?” Benny started.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJack was stunned for a moment. “Friends can give each other flowers too.” Benny ignored his response and continued, “If you like Mommy, | suggest you give up because she already has someone in her heart!” Surprise flashed past the man’s eyes as he stared at the boy with intrigue. “Oh?” Benny met Jack's eyes assertively and proclaimed, “Mommy likes Daddy!” Roxanne’s expression changed when she stepped out of the kitchen and heard that. “What are you talking about, Benny?” The boy pouted and said seriously, “Isn't that true? If you don’t like Daddy, then how are we born?” While the boys did not know who their father was, Roxanne did.
Then, as she related Benny's words to what Estella said last night, she felt a peculiar sensation swelling in her.
As she didn’t feel it was appropriate for her to refute Benny's words, she mentioned breakfast instead. “All right, that’s enough. Essie’s hungry. Let's eat first.” Only then did the children cave in and line up next to the dining table, waiting to be seated.
Roxanne turned to Jack and offered politely, “Have you eaten, Mr. Damaris? Join us if you haven't.” The moment the children heard Roxanne’s invitation, they halted their movements and looked at the man on the couch.
Jack pursed his lips upon spotting the children’s look. “No, thanks. | already ate before | came.” It was only then the children returned to whatever they were doing.
Roxanne nodded at him and enjoyed breakfast with the children.
However, because of Jack’s presence, the children ate inattentively.
