Leaving The Country After Divorce novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 181

Chapter 181

As the newscaster’s sound could be heard faintly, Lucian knew Roxanne should’ve heard about his engagement. He studied her carefully but realized she seemed calm.

Shortly after, he broke the silence. “I’m here to pay Essie a visit. How is she doing?”

Roxanne stepped aside to allow him entry. “She’s upstairs. I need to talk to you about her.”

They entered the living room one after another. Roxanne gestured for him to take a seat on the couch while she occupied a single couch aside.

Catalina served them coffee and left after realizing they had something to discuss.“What is it?” Lucian’s heart sank when he noticed her expression.

Roxanne revealed calmly, “I agreed to let Essie stay here temporarily because of her condition. She is doing better these few days. She is also starting to talk. Compared to her past self, she has improved a lot. There is no need for her to remain here.”

She was telling him to bring Estella back home.

Lucian’s expression turned grim. “Since she’s improving a lot here, she might recover completely if she stays here. If it doesn’t trouble you—”

Roxanne interjected swiftly, “I’m sorry. Essie’s your daughter, so I believe she’ll recover faster if she stays with you. I’m just a stranger to her, after all.”
