At that thought, the children finally gave in.
“Okay. | was browsing the stock market just now, though. Givea moment, Mommy,” said Archie nonchalantly.
He then returned to open the laptop and cleared the browsing history before handing it to Roxanne.
Roxanne secretly sighed with relief upon receiving the laptop. “I'll get busy, then. Take care of Essie, okay?” The boys nodded obediently.
