Chapter 900 Do Not Need To Do So
Lifting her eyes, Roxanne glanced at Archie and Benny. Sensing her stare, Archie and Benny raised their eyes guiltily and flashed her a smile before averting their gazes nonchalantly.
A strange feeling welled within Roxanne. Gradually, realization dawned upon her. No wonder Lucian asked me such a question earlier. It turned out that they used my name to come and visit Essie.
That understanding had a sense of exasperation inundating her. But ultimately, she didn’t say anything.
Well, they only did so because they really wanted to come here and visit Essie. Besides, I’m pretty sure Essie’s mood only lifted because they came.
“Are you still feeling unwell anywhere now?” Roxanne regarded Estella in concern.
In response, Estella shook her head docilely and replied in a cute voice, “Archie and Benny played with me!”
At that, Roxanne knew that her conjecture was right. Relief suffused her.
“Why did you come so late, Ms. Jarvis? Have you just finished your work?” Estella inquired, concerned about her instead.
Hearing that, Roxanne abruptly recalled Lucian’s question when they were downstairs just now.
For a moment, she didn’t quite know how to answer Estella.
Fortunately, Estella didn’t really need an answer from her. She merely urged thoughtfully, “Don’t tire yourself out, Ms. Jarvis. You’ve got to take good care of yourself!”
Touched by her innocence, Roxanne nodded emotionally and her eyes moved.
“Okay, I will. Won’t you allow me to check you over?”
Following that, Estella obediently stretched her hand out.
Taking her wrist, Roxanne took her pulse.
While she couldn’t diagnose Estella’s mental condition, she could still check her physical condition. Only then, she would be at ease.
