Chapter 1507

Roxanne had a hesitant look in her eyes as she asked, “I want to know what you think of Archie and Benny. Tell me honestly, didyou only choose to accept them because of me?”

“You know me. Except for Essie, | have no patience for kids in general. But things are different with Archie and Benny. I'm notsure if it's because they have your blood running through their veins, but | felt an odd sense of closeness with them the moment |first saw them,” Lucian replied without any hesitation.

He then released his grip on Roxanne as he continued, “I was prepared to accept them the moment | first saw them. It's just as |said in the announcement. From now on, | will treat them as our children, which is no different from how | treat Essie.”

Roxanne felt a wave of melancholy sweep over her when she heard that.

Lucian said he felt a sense of closeness with them because they're my children, but in reality, they're his children too... Whowould've thought being related by blood would have such a strong effect on people? Lucian has been proving his words with theway he treats Archie and Benny. If Sonya can genuinely accept Archie and Benny into the family, then | will tell Lucian the truthabout their identities. | will let him know that Archie and Benny are our children!

Lucian had his arm around her waist as he observed the changes in her expression.

While he couldn't tell what she was thinking, the firm yet gentle look in her eyes caused his heart to skip a beat.

As Lucian slowly moved his hand up to her face, Roxanne went along with his movement and got closer to him.

The sexual tension between them increased as the two of them got closer to each other.

Their lips were about to touch when a childish voice called out to Roxanne from above.

“Mommy! You're back—”

Archie quickly held a hand over Benny's mouth to stop him from interrupting the kiss.

He then grabbed Benny by the arm and tried to sneak back into the room so they could pretend nothing had ever happened.However, Roxanne had heard him and tensed up all of a sudden.

Lucian frowned slightly as he tried to move in for a kiss, but Roxanne turned to the side at the last second, so he only managedto kiss her on the cheek.

She then pushed him aside and shot him a glare in response.

Lucian looked up at the balcony on the second floor and called out to the three kids who were about to sneak away, “It's reallylate. Why are you three still awake at this hour?”

Roxanne had wanted to stop him, but it was too late.

The kids stopped in their tracks when they heard his voice.

After exchanging glances with each other, Benny decided to step forward and wave at them from the balcony.

“| didn't mean to stay up, Daddy! | just thought I'd greet Mommy since | heard her coming home. | didn't know you two came backtogether!”

| would've hidden in my room and pretended to be asleep if | had known!

Of course, Lucian wasn't going to punish Benny or anything. He just wanted to show Roxanne that the kids knew everything.
