Chapter 726
Chapter 726 I Cannot Forgive You
The next morning, while Roxanne was having breakfast with the children before sending them to
school, the doorbell suddenly rang.
The ring caused Roxanne and the boys to exchange nces as the same thought popped into their
minds—Lucian and Este were there.
After all, both of them usually dropped by at that hour. Without a second thought, Roxanne got up and
opened the door. She was subsequently greeted by the sight of her best friend looking all anxious.
“Did something happen?” A sinking feeling crept into her heart. The frowning Madilyn stretched her
head to look at the children—who were busy eating—before pulling Roxanne out the door.
Cognizant that it was something the children weren’t supposed to know, Roxanne followed the former
to the yard. “What’s wrong?”
“Did you see the news in the morning?” Madilyn sounded exceptionally grim. Hearing that, Roxanne
shook her head in response as she was clueless.
As Lysa was held back by something at home and couldn’te to work for the week, she had woken
up early in the morning to prepare breakfast and watch the children eat.
Consequently, she didn’t have time to read the morning news at all. Nevertheless, Roxanne could tell
from Madilyn’s expression that something grave had happened.
Knitting her brows, Madilyn didn’t even know how to break the news. “What on earth happened?”
Madilyn’s reaction told Roxanne that it was something rted to her. She repeated with a frown, “If you
don’t tell me, I’ll go in and read it myself.”
Just when she turned around to go back in, Madilyn grabbed her hand to stop her.
“News of you going on a datete at night with Jack has sshed across the headlines. They use
both of you of being close and suspect that strings were pulled for you to be included as one of the
Damaris family’s partners.”
Madilyn—who greatly resented the news—spoke in a swift but incoherent manner. In spite of that,
Roxanne face darkened, as she had caught the gist of it.
My date with Jack…
The only thing that came to mind was the dinner the night before. However, there were three of us.
How did it end up bing a date?
In the midst of racking her brain, an image suddenly shed across her mind. Last night, Jessica didn’t
show up for a long time even though both of us had arrived…
“Whatever it is, you had better not send the boys to school. I’ll take them instead, as I’m worried that
you would be swarmed by reporters there. Also, don’t leave home as far as possible,” Madilyn
instructed with a solemn expression on her face. Roxanne was well aware of the gravity of the
situation.
Even though she was certain of her innocence, the media wasn’t going to let her off the hook easily. In
addition, Roxanne didn’t want her affairs to burden her children, causing them an unnecessary
emotional burden.
With that in mind, she nodded without hesitation before expressing her gratitude. “Thank God you
came all the way here to tell me.”
However, Madilyn ranted, “Why are they ndering such a good doctor like you? Once I find out who’s
responsible, I’ll definitely give them a piece of my mind!”
While Roxanne was trying to calm Madilyn down with a smile, Jessica’s face emerged again in her
mind, for she couldn’t think of anyone else.
However, Roxanne had no clue whether someone else was behind Jessica. Realizing it was getting
As for the boys, their faces drooped in disappointment upon learning that Madilyn was taking them to
school.
Since telling them the truth wasn’t an option, Roxanne apologized, “I’m sorry. There’s just something I

need to deal with urgently. Once I’m done, I’ll definitely send you to school every day.”
Noticing the gloomy look on Roxanne’s face, the brothers—in spite of their dejection—acknowledged
her promise obediently.
