Leaving The Country After Divorce novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 1017

Chapter 1017 Petty Tricks

In the meantime, Estella was getting hungry from waiting, so she let herself out the door. As soon as she arrived downstairs, she heard Aubree express her intention to spend the night.

Alarm bells sounded in Estella’s head. She waddled over to her father’s side. Daddy and Ms. Jarvis had not reconciled, and she would be even angrier if she finds out that Ms. Pearson is going to spend the night here!

Even worse, Estella feared her father would have Aubree become her mother. The child gazed at her father with wide, unblinking eyes and conveyed her thoughts without uttering a word.

Lucian met Estella’s eyes and caressed her head comfortingly, then turned his gaze to Aubree. Aubree’s heart thumped audibly at the realization that Lucian’s answer was not what she wanted to hear.

“You should go to a hospital for that. I wouldn’t be able to explain myself to my mother if your condition worsens.” Lucian’s tone was cold.

After he spoke, the man stood up from the couch.

Estella immediately grabbed her father’s trouser leg and followed him closely behind.

Gazing after the departing father and daughter, Aubree glared maliciously at the little figure beside Lucian.

That little b*tch again!

A moment later, Aubree redirected her gaze at Lucian. “Could you come with me to the hospital then, Lucian? I’m a little scared.”

Lucian glanced sideways at her with a jeer but upon considering it, nodded mutely.

As she had fallen in his house, it was only polite that Lucian sent her to get treatment.

“Daddy!” Estella tugged on her father’s trouser leg, looking all reluctant.

Daddy accompanied Ms. Jarvis all night at the hospital when he sent her that time. I’m afraid Daddy would do the same for Ms. Jarvis.
