Chapter 630
As soon as Estella heard that, she lifted her hands aggrievedly to wipe off the tears on her face before raising her head with a smile.
Roxanne was shocked to find that the young girl had really burst into tears. “I’m sorry for making you sad.” She bent down and caressed the girl’s cheeks.
Shaking her head earnestly, Estella then ran up to Lucian, pulled out the tickets from her school bag, and passed them to Roxanne.
The woman, despite feeling conflicted, eventually accepted the tickets. Before she could utter a word, Estella’s voice rang out again.
“Goodbye, Ms. Jarvis!” The young girl was afraid that Roxanne would change her mind, and thus she quickly waved goodbye and headed into the kindergarten after passing her the tickets. “See you at the concert!”
In response, Roxanne swallowed her words back down and gave Estella a slight nod.
With that, the three children held hands and entered the kindergarten together. leaving Roxanne and Lucian alone at the entrance.
As she lowered her eyes to look at the tickets in her grip, she could vividly feel the man’s intense yet indiscernible gaze directed toward her from behind. A turmoil of emotions surged within her almost instantaneously.
Agreeing to watch the concert with Essie means I’ll have to spend time with Lucian again.
Had it been the old Roxanne, she might have been able to persuade herself that she would only have to spend a little time with him.
But frankly, she was a little scared after yesterday’s incident. After all, she had no idea what Lucian would do or say at the concert.
“Ms. Jarvis.” While she was lost in her thoughts, Lucian’s voice sounded from behind her.
