His And Her Marriage (Lucian and Roxanne) novel Chapter 861

Chapter 861 Daddy Is Lying

Soon, Lucian stopped his car in front of James’ psychiatric clinic. As Lucian had made the call while he was on the way, James was already waiting at the door.

After getting out of the car, Lucian walked over to the other side to carry Estella, who was still crying. Upon seeing his outstretched hands, she dodged to the side.

“Let me do it,” James offered as he stepped forward. He reached out to Estella and said gently, “Essie, good girl. Let me carry you.”

Estella shook her head and choked out, “I want Ms. Jarvis…”

James couldn’t help but frown in confusion and glance at Lucian.

Lucian had mentioned that Estella wouldn’t stop crying on the phone earlier, but he did not get the chance to explain what had happened in detail.

Meeting James’ eyes, Lucian furrowed his brows and said, “Let’s talk inside.”

James gave him a nod before turning around to coax the girl again. “Ms. Jarvis will be here soon. Come with me first and let’s wait for her inside, all right?”

Estella stared at James doubtfully for quite a while upon hearing that.

James’ face gave nothing away. After all, he was a professional psychiatrist.

Having detected no flaws in his expression, Estella finally stretched her arms toward him and allowed him to carry her out of the car. All the time, she continued to sniffle.

At the sight of her father standing beside them, she whimpered and hid her face in James’ chest. It was clear that she did not want to see Lucian.

Lucian’s eyes darkened when he saw his daughter’s attitude toward him. Nevertheless, he stayed quiet and followed James into the clinic.

James’ confusion grew as he looked at the little girl in his arms.
