Leaving The Country After Divorce

Chapter 1618 Waiting For A Suitable Opportunity

After dinner, the three children thoughtfully went aside to play.

Lucian had informed the manager in advance that the children would be coming along, so the latter had set up a play area that was filled with toys and games where the kids had a great time playing.

Meanwhile, Lucian and Roxanne admired the night view from the open-air rooftop.

“Thank you.”

Roxanne turned to Lucian and gave him a grateful look.

He cocked his brow in response, and a mischievous glint flashed across his eyes. “Is that all?”

Roxanne racked her brains for a moment. “We'll have to give Mr. Queen a treat someday. As for you, I have not thought of what to get you as a gift.”

She obviously knew that a word of thanks wouldn't be enough to satisfy him.

Lucian hugged her from behind, trapping her between himself and the railing, before handing her a glass of red wine.

Roxanne proceeded to take it from his hand.

“I don't need any gifts.” Lucian's voice rang out beside her ear. “You have already given me what I wanted a long time ago.” He clinked his glass against hers. “If you really want to thank me...”

He then whispered something into her ear.

Blushing all over, Roxanne turned around and pressed her wineglass against his lips as she protested, “I need to rest!”

If I hadn't known him well, I would have assumed that he spent the last few years gallivanting all over. Otherwise, how did he end up with such a dirty mind?

Having achieved his objective, Lucian took a sip from her wineglass and leaned in to feed her through his lips.

Roxanne was bedazzled by the sudden kiss.

“Go ahead and get some rest today. We have plenty of opportunities in the future.” After giving her a kiss, he brushed his finger across her lips.

Upon regaining her senses, Roxanne wanted to return to their seats so as to put some distance between them.

However, Lucian put on his serious expression again. “That aside, when are you going to fulfill the promise you made to me?”

Roxanne hesitated. After a brief silence, she replied, “I was thinking of waiting for a suitable opportunity.”

Even though the concern on her face was obvious to Lucian, he had no idea what she was worried about.

Unable to bring himself to pressure her, he pulled her into his embrace. “It's fine. I don't mind waiting.”

After all, the air had been cleared after the press conference today.

With a grateful smile, Roxanne wrapped her arms around his waist.

Both of them were subsequently locked in a warm embrace underneath the moonlight.

Only when it was getting late did they head home together with the children.
