If Mommy finds out that we knew about our father a long tago and were just hiding it from her, would she be upset? In reality, Roxanne had not even considered this possibility.

“You can pass Benny to me. He must be frightened.” Roxanne moved closer to Lucian and passed Estella to him. “Estella must miss her father too.” Lucian furrowed his brows at Roxanne. She seems to be acting strangely today.
However, he did not think much of it as he passed Benny to her. Estella seemed to realize she had left Roxanne’s embrace and murmured in dissatisfaction.
Benny also frowned in disappointment upon leaving Lucian’s embrace. Roxanne glanced at Lucian’s chest, which was where Benny had been grabbing onto a moment ago.

Benny was—" Lucian’s clothes were expensive, so Roxanne subconsciously tried to apologize on Benny's behalf. Before she could finish her sentence, Lucian interrupted, “Why are you two fine?” Especially Archie. They must have eaten and drunk the sthings, so why are Estella and Benny in so much pain while Archie seems fine? Roxanne was stunned by the sudden change in subject. Archie was the first to react. He answered in an adorable voice, “Benny and Essie finished all the water in their cups. | only drank a sip!” Lucian was baffled as he did not know what water Archie was talking about.
Roxanne jolted back to her senses and explained, “The water was prepared beforehand, and they all drank it during lunch. There was no problem then. However, they suddenly got a stomachache when they drank it again in the afternoon.” Roxanne was filled with remorse thinking about it. “It's my fault. Archie toldthe water tasted funny when he drank it, but I didn’t think much of it.” If only | had been more careful and checked all their cups, Benny and Estella wouldn't be sick now. Lucian’s gaze darkened as he glanced at Estella.
Under the moonlight, Estella’s face was extremely pale, and there was no color in her lips. She was clearly in much agony. He would have flown into a rage if someone else had put Estella in such a situation.
However, Lucian only frowned at Roxanne and comforted her in his deep voice, “It’s not your fault. It's as you said. They all drank it during lunch, and the water was fine then.” They should be more concerned with what happened after. Archie chimed in, “Mommy, don’t blyourself, or Benny and Essie will be sad when they find out.” Roxanne was touched, and sof her guilt abated when she heard their comforting words. As tticked away, the medicine was finally ready.
Roxanne placed Benny down at the side and took out the cups to pour the medicine for Estella and Benny.
