Chapter 1097
Jonathan was even more taken aback by that. “She’s all right after such a short period of time? Does that mean she’s doing much better now?”
“She spent a day at Roxanne’s,” Lucian said nonchalantly.
Jonathan could guess what Lucian was trying to say.
It was not because Estella’s condition was getting better for her mood to have improved so quickly; it was because she met Roxanne.
However, Jonathan found the way Lucian mentioned Roxanne strange.
Is he really… planning to cut ties with Roxanne?
Jonathan’s confusion was clearly written on his face.
Noticing that, Lucian said, “I talked to her about it. It’s true that we can’t progress any further in our relationship, so we’ve decided to do as she says-to become strangers.”
“Are you really giving up just like that?” Jonathan could not believe what he had just heard.
Lucian frowned. “What do you think?”
You can’t possibly ask me to cast aside my dignity to beg Roxanne to change her mind. I can’t do that, and she won’t change her mind anyway.
Jonathan drew his brows together. “What about Essie? Dr. Jarvis is her mother, and the girl adores her too.”
The mention of Estella made something flash past Lucian’s eyes. “I’ve talked about this with Aubree. She’ll treat Essie well, and as time passes, I’m sure Essie will slowly accept her.”
Getting Essie to accept Aubree?
Jonathan found that incredulous.
He had invited Lucian out because Frieda had gleefully told him about how Lucian was planning to stay engaged to Aubree.
