Chapter 563
“Mommy!”
“Ms. Jarvis!”
The children let out sighs of relief as they cast exciting looks at the duo on the surface of the sea.
Meanwhile, Roxanne waved happily at the children.
Quickly, the staff put down the steps and let them onto the yacht.
Though Roxanne enjoyed her time diving, she used up a lot of energy. Hence, it took a lot of strength for her to
climb up the steps.
The instructor, who was waiting below her, wanted to give her a push to lend her some strength.
However, he felt a murderous gaze fixed on himself, causing him to shudder subconsciously.
When the instructor looked up, he saw Lucian, who suddenly appeared by the steps. The latter swept his gaze on
the instructor before finally fixing it on Roxanne.
The instructor’s hand froze in the air for a few seconds, and he withdrew it quietly.

When Roxanne was having difficulty climbing up the steps, she instinctively turned back, wanting to ask the
instructor to give her a push. To her dismay, the instructor was casually looking at his surroundings but never
casting her a glance.
Seeing that, Roxanne had no choice but to retract her gaze. Just as she was about to rely on her own strength, a
huge arm appeared before her eyes.
Immediately after that, Lucian’s low voice rang out. “Take my hand.”
Upon hearing that, Roxanne looked up mindlessly and met Lucian’s eyes, which had an unfathomable gaze,
For some reason, Roxanne’s heart tensed when their eyes met.
The children, on the other hand, were safely buckled to their seats. Hence, they could not go over to help her. All
they could do was look over in her direction concernedly.
Roxanne hesitated for a moment. Not wanting to make the children wait, she finally grabbed Lucian’s hand and
slowly climbed up the steps with Lucian’s support.
The moment she got onto the yacht, she quickly let go of his hand.
Her actions clearly showed she was avoiding him. A grim look appeared in Lucian’s eyes, but he said nothing.
Instead, he stared at her,
“Thank you,” Roxanne thanked him softly before walking off to get changed.
However, her legs gave way as she took her first step.
Before she could even react, she started falling forward.

The children were shocked, and they wanted to crawl out of the safety buckles to help Roxanne.
Thankfully, Lucian reached out just in time and grabbed her waist, pulling her into his embrace.
Roxanne was still in shock. Thus, she leaned on him to let herself calm down.
“It’s your first time diving, and you were underwater for quite a long time. It’s normal for your legs to not get used
to it. You’ll be fine after some rest,” explained the staff.

Town.
Roxanne finally came to her senses. It was at that moment when she realized she was leaning in Lucian’s embrace,
and many people were watching them.
Even the children were watching them with their widened eyes.
Realizing that, Roxanne frowned and scrambled up, wanting to escape Lucian’s embrace.
However, Lucian seemed to have sensed her intentions. He wrapped his arms tighter around her waist, informing
her, “I’ll take you to the side to have a seat.”
Roxanne frowned, wanting to refuse him in case the children misunderstood things.
Unfortunately, Lucian held her tightly, giving her no room to say anything. Just like that, they walked toward the
children.
Roxanne had no choice but to swallow the words she wanted to say.
Upon arriving where the children were, Lucian bent over and helped her to sit down. The children, loo, quickly
reached out to help.
