Chapter 47
Mission To Remarry
âI remember that you came back from overseas together with Archie and Benny. Considering that they grew up overseas, Iâm surprised at how well they speak Chanaean.â
Since the chat was just an excuse, the teacher talked about trivial matters, as Archie and Bennyâs performances in class were so impressive that there was nothing to complain about.
Roxanne nodded with a smile. âThatâs because there were still many Chanaeans around to converse with them.â
Meanwhile, the boys didnât say a word and merely smiled obediently. They would simply nod at whatever their mother said.
Seeing how well-behaved they were, the teacher couldnât help but gush in admiration. âOther than Chanaean and Ustranasion, they seem to be able to speak Ferropenian too, donât they?â
âMmm-hmm, they probably picked it up from my colleagues overseas.â
Roxanne caressed the boysâ hair.
Impressed, the teacher exclaimed, âI must say, they are exceptionally smart to not only have mastered three languages at such a young age but also the elementary school curriculum too. Coupled with their exquisite features, you really do have exceptional children!â
Roxanne beamed with pride at the praise. âYou flatter us. Theyâre just ordinary children who enjoy learning.â
While they were chatting, Roxanne continued to be vigilant about whether someone was coming to pick Estella up.
Upon checking the time, she realized that a long while had passed.
Filled with sudden concern, she asked, âBy the way, when will the girlâs parents arrive?â
The teacher looked at her watch and answered, âProbably soon.â
After nodding in response, Roxanne lowered her gaze at Estella.
The latter was still standing beside her while maintaining her grip on Roxanneâs sleeve as if sheâ. was fearful of Roxanne leaving.
Resigning herself to the fact that she couldnât leave, Roxanne turned to the boys. âCan you boys go to the car first and wait for me there?â
Nodding obediently, both of them walked to the kindergartenâs entrance.
Once she saw them get into the car, Roxanne recovered her gaze.
It was prudent to keep the boys out of the way since she couldnât avoid meeting those two.
At the kindergarten entrance, Archie and Benny got into the car one after another before looking out the window.
âWhy do you think Mommy asked us to come out here?â Benny wondered while holding his chin.
Archie put their schoolbags away before joining his brother at the window. âBecause Daddy is about to arrive.â
For some strange reason, Mommy doesnât want us to meet Daddy. However, she isnât aware that we have discovered Daddyâs true identity and even know what he looks like.
As the boys continued to stare outside, a Rolls-Royce dramatically pulled up by the street.
A towering man in a long-sleeved shirt and pants alighted from it.
Ever since the car appeared, Benny monitored it closely. When the man came out of the car, he locked his gaze on the man and gave Archie a nudge. âArchie, look. Can that be Daddy?â
After turning his head to glance at the man, Archie nodded with conviction.
Without a doubt, thatâs the man I saw on the internet!
Upon receiving Archieâs confirmation, Benny couldnât help but praise aloud, âDaddy looks a lot more dashing in real life compared to the picture.â
Just as he spoke, Archie shot him a glare.
âDidnât I tell you that youâre not allowed to like him?â
With a sullen expression, Archie glared at the man outside as if he was their mortal enemy.
This is the man who abandoned Mommy and us!
man who After being admonished by his brother, Benny zipped his mouth sheepishly.
