His And Her Marriage (Lucian and Roxanne) novel Chapter 1070

Chapter 1070 Do Not Do Anything Bad

“It’s our fault, Mommy. We didn’t keep a close eye on Essie.” The boys had already guessed the truth when their mother questioned them. Even though Estella had admitted to the offense, they still wanted to take the blame for her mistake. Roxanne did not know what to say as she watched the three of them protect each other.

I would’ve been contended to see them caring for each other in another situation, but they’re covering for each other at the wrong time now. What do I do… Moments later, she suppressed her emotions and placed Estella on her thighs. “Tell me the truth, Essie. Did you do this by yourself or with the boys?”

As Estella had learned that Roxanne disliked dishonest children, she, of course, wasn’t going to lie. Besides, she never wanted to drag the brothers down with her either.

“I-I did it by myself…” she choked out. Roxanne nodded and wiped the girl’s tears away. “Why did you do it?” Even though the girl was crying intensely, she still answered the question, “Because I don’t like Mr. Damaris.”

It was the justification Roxanne expected but didn’t want to hear.

“When Mr. Damaris gifted you flowers, you accepted it. But when Daddy did it, you tried to return it to him. Also, you always argue with Daddy and rarely smile at him. Yet, you keep smiling at Mr. Damaris…” Estella listed everything she despised about Jack.

The more Roxanne listened to the girl, the lower her heart sank. I have no clue Essie is capable of such fierce jealousy at a young age, and it’s all because she’s very attached to me…

Estella tugged at Roxanne’s shirt pitifully and added, “I only want you to be with Daddy and become my mommy! Please don’t hate me, Ms. Jarvis!”
