Chapter 320 Children
Roxanne didn’t know her falling ill affected Archie and Benny that much. For a few moments, she was at a loss for words. Thinking back, these two have been with me ever since they were born. In their eyes, I’m probably a superhero who always takes care of them and protects them. They had never seen me being that sick twice before. I suppose it’s only natural that they are spooked.
The silence lasted for a while before she patted their heads with a complicated feeling. “I’m glad you two are concerned about me. Since both of you are afraid I’ll catch a cold, I can just stay on land and watch you swim.”
The boys glanced at each other, hesitated for a few seconds, and nodded obediently.
Roxanne smiled with relief. After she packed things up with the children, they went to the swimming pool by car.
Thinking that they might visit often, she registered to be a member there.
It was a swimming pool in the mansion district, so the environment inside was serene. The area was pretty big, too.
Because it was the weekend, there were a lot of people inside. Nevertheless, it wasn’t overly cramped, and the pool water was so clean that one could see the bottom.
The pool was split into two areas, the adult area and the children’s area. Archie and Benny were pretty skilled at swimming, and there wasn’t that kind of distinction overseas, so she let the boys swim with the adults.
The crowd’s attention was immediately drawn to the two cute children swimming in the pool.
They were amazed by how well the boys could swim.
Roxanne sat at the side, eating snacks and drinking. She kept her eyes on the children as she snacked.
While she didn’t plan to swim, she was at a swimming pool, so she still changed into a swimsuit. It wasn’t very revealing, but it definitely did show her figure well.
She sat cross-legged, relaxed. A smile was seen on her face as she watched her boys swimming in the pool.
Her focus was placed entirely on the children. Suddenly, the voice of a greasy man entered her ears. “Hello, gorgeous. May I ask what’s your name?”
When Roxanne returned to her senses, she subconsciously studied the man.
The man only wore a pair of swimming pants. He had an acceptable figure, but his expression was unsettling.
Sensing Roxanne’s line of sight, the man narcissistically posed in different ways and introduced himself, “I’m the fitness instructor of a nearby gym. If you’re interested, I can teach you a thing or two.”
She smiled distantly. “Thanks, but I’m not interested.”
The man stared at her white, slender legs greedily and stubbornly continued, “If you’re not interested in fitness, there’s something else—”
Before he could finish, a child’s voice rang in his ears.
“Leave my mommy alone!”
When the boys saw a man suddenly standing next to their mother, they immediately got out of the swimming pool and ran toward her. Then they glared fiercely at the man, who was much taller and stronger than them.
The man’s expression changed upon seeing the children. “You have children?”
Roxanne instinctively protected Archie and Benny, yet they insisted on standing in front of her.
The man studied the children for a while before staring at her again. “I don’t mind that. Well, if you’re interested…”
Her eyebrows furrowed when she heard that.
