The Abandoned Wife

Chapter 775 In His Arms

After having settled the three children, Lucian and Roxanne looked at each other. The second floor had to be left unoccupied, and there was only one guest room on the first floor. The only remaining room was Lysa's room.

While Roxanne was wondering where she should house Lucian, the man offered, "I'll make do on the couch." Having said that, he went over to the spot in question.

Roxanne's brows creased slightly. But on second thought, there are only a few hours until dawn, and he might not necessarily be able to sleep well even if he manages to fall asleep. Besides, I really have no place for him to sleep.

At that thought, she didn't say anything further. She merely took a blanket from the guest room and handed it to the man. Reaching out, Lucian took it from her and urged lowly, "It's late, so you should rest as well."

Roxanne inclined her head imperceptibly. When she recalled Benny's mumbles in his dream earlier, a peculiar feeling surged within her, and she couldn't help explaining, "Just now... Benny must have been having some bizarre dream. Please don't take it to heart, Mr. Farwell."

Her words had Lucian frowning slightly. In consideration that she had worked hard that night, he initially planned to ignore Benny's remark earlier. Yet, she just had to bring it up again.
