Leaving The Country After Divorce novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 134

Chapter 134 To Not Be With Him

In the meantime, at the Farwell residence, Sonya and Elias were about to rest. When they heard the sudden ringing of the doorbell, they hastily opened the door.

Instantly, they were greeted by the apologetic faces of Samuel and Gina. Aubree was behind them, her eyes red.

“What happened?” Sonya asked in confusion when she registered the trio’s expressions.

Gina turned to shoot Aubree a glare.

Aubree’s eyes were bloodshot, and remorse was written all over her face. Even her voice was a little hoarse as she said, “Mrs. Farwell, I’ve come to apologize.”

Sonya became even more puzzled by that response. She then led the three to the couch and had the maid pour them cups of tea before asking, “What happened? Why are you apologizing to me?”Aubree kept her head low, not daring to look at Sonya at all. “You convinced Essie to get into my car yesterday morning, so I thought she’d be quiet while I bring her to the kindergarten. However, she began kicking up a fuss and insisting on getting down from the car midway. She even tried to open the door despite how dangerous it was. I tried to stop her, but she refused to listen to me. In the end, I got too anxious and hit her a few times after I stopped the car.”

The moment Sonya and Elias heard that Sonya had laid a finger on Estella, their expressions darkened.

Aubree continued in a miserable tone, “I really didn’t mean it. I know it’s my fault; I shouldn’t have done anything to a kid. Estella’s so cute, and she’s your precious princess. Even now, I feel like slapping myself for having done that. If only I was more patient at that time.”

At the sight of her remorseful demeanor, Sonya’s dark expression lightened up a little. “If you know that you’ve done wrong, you should know that it’s pointless to come to us. You should be apologizing to Essie instead. You can’t do this anymore in the future.”

A conflicted look crossed Aubree’s face. “Mrs. Farwell, that’s what I thought too, but Lucian found out about this matter. He’s furious…”

“It’s normal for him to be mad. Have a good talk with him.” A line appeared between Sonya’s brows. She felt that Lucian had gone a little overboard with his response.
