Chapter 2
Roxanne hurried to Harvey’s office.
After pushing the door open, she spotted the little rascals inside. They were sitting on the couch in the
office and swinging their legs nonchalantly.
The boys lit up at the sight of Roxanne. Scrambling off the couch, they ran toward her excitedly.
“Mommy, you’re finally done! I thought you’d be staying in the laboratory forever!”
“Mommy, you’ve worked hard! Are you tired? Sit down. I’ll give you a massage.”
They led Roxanne to the couch so she could take a seat.
As Roxanne took in their concern, she suddenly felt it was worth it to get yelled at.
“Look at how obedient you are. You weren’t like this when you hacked into my computer earlier!”
Harvey huffed angrily behind his desk.
Archie declared, “It was all your fault, Professor Lambert! You kept asking Mommy to work overtime.
Look, she’s getting malnourished!” Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
“That’s right! Mommy’s an ordinary human being. How could you ask her to work day and night?”
Benny chimed in as he kneaded Roxanne’s shoulder.
His temper spiking, Harvey gave a bark of laughter and responded, “You’re too overprotective of her!
Everyone in the research institute does the same!”
With that said, he shook his head and turned to Roxanne. “How did your research go?”
Roxanne shot him a grin. “It went smoothly. I’ll send the data to you later.”
She paused before asking, “Have you restored the data in your computer?”
Harvey ran a hand through his hair in frustration. “It has been an hour, but I still can’t restore anything.”
Amused, Roxanne patted Benny’s hand. “Benny, go restore Professor Lambert’s computer. Don’t be
naughty. What if he loses some important data?”
Benny immediately replied, “That won’t happen. I prepare a backup and various security levels every
time. He won’t lose a thing!’
As he said that, he trotted over to Harvey and restored the latter’s computer.
The little boy’s fingers typed on the keyboard furiously and produced lines of codes.
A few minutes later, the computer screen blinked and returned to normal.
Harvey took one look at his computer in admiration. He had to admit his mentee’s sons were geniuses.
At a young age, Archie was already a medical genius. He was capable of differentiating thousands of
herbs and showcased his talent in medicine. He also had a sharp eye for investments.
Benny, on the other hand, was interested in programming. He was now a little hacker who was very
sensitive to numbers. Like his brother, he also did great in investments.
Besides, both of them were adorable, mature, and cheeky.
Thus, he couldn’t bring himself to yell at them whenever they kicked up a fuss. Instead, he could only
vent his frustrations on Roxanne.
Roxanne immediately offered an apology. “I’m sorry, Professor Lambert. Please don’t blame the kids
for their naughty acts.”
Please don’t yell at me, too. I can’t always be their scapegoat, can I?
Harvey chuckled at her reaction. “Don’t worry. I didn’t summon you here to yell at you. I have a task for
you. Listen, I’ve been planning on setting up a research institute back in the country. It will be focusing
on traditional medicine. However, I’m still busy here and can’t leave for now. After careful consideration,
I’ve decided to send you back!”
Roxanne had no idea he would say that. She froze and hesitated.
Go back home?
She never thought of going back to that place again after leaving six years ago.
After all, she didn’t have a family or someone she cared about back there.
Besides, she had grown to love Yartran.
Her first reaction was to reject the offer. “Professor Lambert, I—”
Harvey interjected, “Roxanne, I know you don’t want to head back, but I hope you’ll consider my
suggestion. You’ve been my student for years, so I believe you know how wide and profound traditional
medicine is. There aren’t enough herbs here for you to research. In Chanaea, you’ll have all the herbs
you want. You can use and research them freely. Most importantly, many hidden and prestigious
families are in possession of ancient medical skills in Chanaea. I remember you’re interested in that,
right? That was why I made the suggestion for you to return to Chanaea. You have a bright future
ahead of you. Besides, you’re different now. No matter what happens, or who you run into, I believe
you can handle everything calmly, right?”
At his words, Roxanne fell silent.
He’s right. I’ve changed into a completely different person now. I can face all obstacles without fear.
Besides, it has been six years. Perhaps that man is already married to his first crush. Why am I afraid?
With that thought in mind, Roxanne took a deep breath and nodded solemnly. “All right, then. Professor
Lambert, I’ll listen to you and return to Chanaea.”
Harvey beamed. “I’m glad you made up your mind quickly. Don’t worry. I’ll ask Linda to come with you.
I’ll also arrange a team to help you out there.”
“Great. Thank you, Professor Lambert!” Roxanne gave a curt nod.
As they were conversing, Archie and Benny shared a look. They could sense each other’s excitement.
Mommy’s finally returning to Chanaea!
In fact, the two of them had been dying to head back for ages. After all, their father was back there.
They wanted to see him in person. Of course, they also wanted to teach him a lesson for deserting his
wife and children.
Two days later, Roxanne and the boys landed at the international airport in Horington.
Roxanne was finally back in Chanaea after six years.
After disembarking the plane, they walked out of the hallway. Just then, Benny squeezed his legs
together and tugged at the corner of Roxanne’s skirt. “Mommy, I need to pee now.”
Roxanne and Archie giggled at the sight of his urgent expression. “Okay. Let’s go, then.”
She reached out to ruffled Benny’s hair.
At once, Benny trembled violently. “Stop it, Mommy. I’m going to pee my pants!”
With a chuckle, Roxanne led him to the restroom.
Archie then brought him into the restroom while Roxanne waited outside with their luggage. She didn’t
forget to send her professor a text to inform him about their arrival.
Suddenly, a familiar voice rang out.
“Idiots! How could so many of you fail to keep an eye on a little girl? What use are you if you can’t even
complete such a simple task?”
There was a hint of fury in the man’s melodious, deep, and rich voice. It was pleasing to the ears.
Roxanne’s hands, which were initially typing out a message on her phone, froze instantly.
Six years had passed since she last heard this voice, but she still found it eerily familiar.
Looking up, Roxanne spotted the tall figure some distance away.
Standing not far off was a tall man. His black suit accentuated his long legs and added a touch of
elegance to his figure. Even in the crowd, he was eye-catching.
Roxanne could see his perfect side profile from her line of sight.
His tall nose and sculpted features were the envy of many. In fact, he looked so handsome that other
men paled in comparison to him.
Lucian Farwell!
Roxanne’s heart clenched at the sight of him.
She had no idea she’d run into him on the day of her arrival.
The feelings she had buried deep in her heart emerged temporarily, but she quickly put a lid on them.
Her gaze turned frosty.
She could finally appear calm before him.
Right then, the boys emerged from the restroom. “Mommy, we’re done!” they declared cheerfully.
Roxanne snapped out of her reverie and nearly had a heart attack.
The first thought that popped up in her mind was that she needed to leave right away. I can’t let Archie
and Benny see him. They bear a resemblance to him. If they bump into each other, he’ll definitely
realize something’s wrong!
Roxanne refused to get involved with him yet again.
Flustered, she urged, “You’re done? Come, let’s go. You don’t want your godmother to wait, do you?”
Without waiting for a reply, she dragged her luggage away.
Halfway through his phone call, Lucian heard a familiar voice and turned at his shoulder.
From the corner of his eye, he spotted a familiar female figure.
Roxanne Jarvis? Is that her? She’s back?
Lucian ran after her immediately, but her figure had already disappeared into the crowd.
As his gaze turned dark, Lucian was about to explode with rage.
She left the country so resolutely and even Leaving The Country After Divorce Chapter 2abandoned
the kid. There’s no way she’s back!
