Chapter 304 The Culprit
When the doorbell rang again, Archie and Benny instinctively turned to look at Estella. They quickly stopped Lysa
from going downstairs to open the door and did it themselves instead.
Only one person will come to our house at this hour, and he must be the one looking for Essie.
Opening the door, Archie and Benny did not seem surprised at the sight of the man dressed crisply in a suit
standing outside. Behind him, there was also a man holding a medical kit. The boys figured from the latter’s
appearance that he was a doctor.
“Where’s Essie?” Seeing that it was Archie and Benny, Lucian felt a headache coming.
The boys’ prejudice toward him, though unfathomable, was deep-rooted. I guess I won’t be able to get in there
easily today.
And as he had expected, the two boys blocked the entire path and stared at him with full alert. “Why are you
here?”
Mommy surely doesn’t want to see him. And now that she is sick, it will only make her more upset if she sees him

Archie’s and Benny’s eyes glistened with conviction.
Lucian could see through Archie’s and Benny’s minds. He scrunched his brows helplessly and uttered, “I heard your
mommy is sick, so I brought a doctor along.”
Finishing his words, he stood aside to make way for Sonny to step forward. “This is Dr. Elswick, the family doctor of
the Farwell family,” Lucian introduced.
Sonny flashed a warm smile and slightly nodded at Archie and Benny.
The two boys exchanged a look and turned back with a suspicious expression. “How did you find out that Mommy is
sick?”
In a deep voice, Lucian responded, “Ms. Ward gave me a call earlier, informing me that Essie came to find your
mommy.”
Archie and Benny appeared a little hesitant.
After all, as much as they did not want to let Lucian step inside, he had brought a doctor along with him.
Seeing that Archie and Benny seemed to have relented, the man continued his persuasion by using Roxanne’s
condition as an excuse this round. “Your mommy only has you guys to take care of her. I’m sure she hasn’t gone to
the hospital yet. Why don’t you let the doctor take a look at her? Perhaps she’ll recover faster too. Dr. Elswick has
impressive medical skills.”
The raging emotions in Archie and Benny began to calm down at the mention of Roxanne’s condition.

From morning till now, they had only acted according to Lysa’s instructions to help Roxanne change the towel on
her forehead frequently. Yet, there was no sign of the fever subsiding.
Moreover, they had no way of taking Roxanne to the hospital since she had no energy and had been lying in bed all
day.
This doctor has a bright smile. He seems to be a friendly and reliable person.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter some hesitation, Archie and Benny decided to put Roxanne’s health first. Though reluctant, they turned and
headed upstairs, leaving the door open for Lucian and Sonny.
Heaving a sigh of relief, Lucian led Sonny and followed behind the two boys.
Upstairs, having not seen Archie and Benny return after a while, Roxanne was about to ask Lysa to head downstairs
to check on them when they appeared by the door.
Noticing the expression on their faces, Roxanne immediately knew who the visitor was.
Other than Lucian, no one can make the kids pull such a long face. But then again, what made him come here at
this hour?
She figured she was running a fever because she was drenched in the rain last night.
And the culprit of her predicament was none other than Lucian.
Wasn’t I clear enough? I hope he can keep his distance from me. Yet now he’s appearing when I’m so weak…
Roxanne could not think of what kind of attitude she should put on in front of Lucian within such a short time. In her
heart, she kept praying hard that he was merely there to fetch Estella home.
