Chapter 110 Drawing Clear Boundaries
Estella was still playing with her doll on the carpet and couldn’t help but glance at Roxanne every now and then.
She managed to hear their conversation loud and clear.
When she heard Roxanne asking her father why he expelled the two nice older boys, Estella frowned in confusion. She expected to hear her father explain that he had already gotten rid of that idea, but he didn’t speak for a long time.
Estella pouted angrily.
Daddy’s a liar and a bad guy! He promised me not to expel Archie and Benny but still ended up doing it!
With that thought in mind, Estella tossed her toy onto the floor angrily and ran upstairs without looking back.
I’ll never trust Daddy again!Lucian heard Estella running upstairs and felt an oncoming headache at the sight of her.
It was easy to figure out that she had overheard their conversation and misunderstood him again, causing her to throw another one of her little temper tantrums.
If he didn’t explain, she would probably get even angrier.
Lucian massaged his temples and said in a deep voice, “I did talk to the head of kindergarten before, but after Estella was done throwing her tantrum, I told him not to expel the two of them. I really have no clue what you’re talking about. If you want, I can ask him for you.”
Roxanne felt like he was simply faking it and said calmly, “Why should I believe you? It’s already happened, and the head of kindergarten is under you. Naturally, he would stand with you no matter what you say. Lucian, do you really think I’m an idiot?”
She wasn’t completely wrong.
Lucian could actually feel a headache beginning to clench in his skull, and he wanted to explain further, but the person in front of him had already stood up.
“I wish I never met you.” Her tone was calm, and she enunciated each word clearly. As soon as the words left her lips, she turned around and left.
