His And Her Marriage (Lucian and Roxanne) novel Chapter 977

Chapter 977 Guilty

“Be good, Essie. Let me carry you. Don’t cry,” Sonya comforted patiently. Unexpectedly, the more Sonya consoled Estella, the harder Estella cried. Estella was crying so hard that she could barely catch her breath.

Upon noticing that things had gotten out of hand, Sonya reluctantly passed Estella to Lucian. Estella’s wails soon grew weaker again and gradually turned into whimpers after she got into Lucian’s embrace.

The moment Lucian noticed how aggrieved Estella looked, he knew exactly what had happened. I wonder what ruthless things my mother did in order to bring Essie out of Roxanne’s house.

“You’ve spoiled her.” Sonya was dissatisfied. “Don’t you remember how heartless that woman was back then? Why do you still want Essie to get near her? I told you countless times to stay away from her! Why wouldn’t you listen? Are you happy now? Essie doesn’t even want to return to her own home anymore!”

Estella didn’t know what Sonya meant, but she could feel that Sonya was badmouthing Roxanne to Lucian.

Knowing that, Estella tugged at Lucian’s shirt and whined, “I want Ms. Jarvis…”

Sonya was infuriated when she heard that. “Why would you want her? She didn’t even want—”

Before Sonya could finish her sentence, Lucian interrupted, “Catalina, bring Essie upstairs.”

Catalina hurried toward Lucian and reached out to carry Estella.

Considering how hard Estella had been crying earlier on, Catalina didn’t know if Estella would allow being carried away.
