Chapter 1914 Slight Anticipation

Six years ago, Grant had not shown up at the wedding ceremony after getting his hands on the money. At that moment, hewanted to attend the wedding ceremony because he was trying to get out of his predicament. Roxanne believed that his motivewas only to get money all along.

Roxanne felt cathartic after dealing with Winnie and letting out the pent-up frustration and anger she had kept bottled in for overa decade.

Once they returned to the mansion, Roxanne made a phone call to Sonya and personally informed the latter that she had utterlycut her ties with Grant and that she did not wish for him to attend the wedding ceremony.

Also, there was no longer any need to entertain Grant and Winnie any further.

Sonya felt relieved after she heard that her daughter-in-law had managed to settle her affairs. She comforted Roxanne, assuringher that she would no longer be bullied now that she had the Farwell family at her back.

The two of them chatted for a while longer. Once again, Sonya apologized profusely for the things that had happened before.Roxanne had long since let the matter go.

“Roxanne, | made countless mistakes because | was a prejudiced and arrogant fool. After the wedding tomorrow, we'll truly be afamily. | hope you'll put the past behind us and give me the opportunity to be a good mother-in-law and a good grandmother forthe kids.”

Roxanne had not expected Sonya to reflect so deeply on her own actions. “Mom, we need to constantly move on in life. | hopeyou'll forgive any mistakes | make in the future.” She believed that Sonya had spoken from the bottom of her heart, so she tootruly meant what she said.

“All right. You should go get some rest as the preparations for a traditional wedding ceremony begins at three to four o'clock inthe morning.”

Roxanne sat on the couch in a daze after hanging up.

Upon seeing her reaction, Lucian asked, “What's on your mind? Are you thinking about your mother?”

He had hit the bullseye.

Roxanne was trying to recall memories of her mother.

She had been very young back then, roughly four to five years old.

In her memories, her mother was always smiling. She wore a sweet expression, and her face was always filled with tenderness.Her mother was a wonderful person, and yet she was utterly destroyed in the end.

Everything happened because Grant betrayed his family. Perhaps Winnie had even incited him on purpose.

Hence, Roxanne's hatred toward Winnie had never abated even after more than ten years.

She decided to study medicine after witnessing how tormented her mother's last moments were.

“Darling, there's something I've never told you,” Lucian suddenly said.

“What is it?” Roxanne snapped out of her thoughts.

Lucian smiled faintly. “I've always gone to your mother's grave to pay my respects to her on the anniversary of her death after wegot married the first time. Though | always went alone and no one else knows about it.”

“| guessed that it was you, but | couldn't believe it.”

Roxanne's mood improved greatly after hearing his confession.

While Roxanne had been at Epea and unable to return, she had entrusted Madilyn to visit her mother's grave on her behalf eachyear and watched the process remotely. Each time, she noticed a bouquet of flowers was already placed at her mother's grave.

Madilyn had suggested that it was the cemetery's caretaker who had arranged for the flowers.Roxanne could hardly believe that her suspicion was finally confirmed.It really was Lucian!

“Indeed, | was the one. | stood there and begged her to let me see you again.” Lucian wore a begrudging expression, likelyfeeling that his actions did not fit with his image as a cold and aloof CEO.

Roxanne's smile deepened. | never expected Lucian to do something like this!

“Mom must've watched over us and let us reunite through the three children. | believe she's always watching over me.” With thisthought in mind, Roxanne felt calmer.

Mom is always supporting me and on my side. Who cares about what Grant and Winnie say?
