Chapter 287 Making It Up
As he kept blaming Aubree, Sonya scowled in displeasure. “Aubree feels guilty over her actions. She came back to apologize to us last night. How could you be this harsh to her?”
She then glanced at Estella, who was hiding behind Lucian.
Estella was sobbing silently.
Feeling bad for her, Sonya urged softly, “Essie, stop crying. Tell me, did you get hurt?”
Estella adored her grandmother, so she nodded wordlessly in response to Sonya’s question.
“If you knew where we found Essie, you wouldn’t have asked her that.” Lucian pinned Sonya with a withering look.
Sonya was baffled.
They only got to talk on the phone hastily yesterday, so she didn’t get to ask about the details.
Lucian shot Aubree an icy look and said, “Essie ran into the mountains near the botanical garden and fell into a hole. There was where we found her. She was there the whole night. Do you seriously think she didn’t get hurt?”
His words were meant for both Sonya and Aubree. He hoped Aubree would leave tactfully after hearing what he had to say.
Sonya blanched in horror after hearing what Estella had gone through. She bent down and pulled Estella into her arms. “Oh, you must’ve suffered a lot, Essie. Let me give you a hug. Don’t wander off in the future, okay?”
