Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 1015

Chapter 1015 Without A Hint Of Concern

Lucian merely tilted his head at Aubree apathetically before bringing Estella into the mansion. Behind them, as Aubree eyeballed their backs, a flash of something flittered across her eyes.

From what I know, Roxanne and Lucian hadn’t met ever since that night. Hah! It’s evident that the b*tch knew her place and gave up. With that being the case, I’ve got to seize this opportunity all the more and secure my position as the future mistress of the Farwell family!

Although Lucian remained indifferent to her as usual, she wasn’t deterred in the least. Upon seeing that they had gone into the mansion, she hurriedly followed suit. “Is something the matter?”

Lucian had already seen Estella back to her room and was descending the stairs. He pinned a detached look on the woman at the door.

Halting in her steps, Aubree answered smilingly, “Mrs. Farwell told me to come and see how you’re doing.” By then, Lucian had already retracted his gaze on her. “I’ve already recovered, so tell her not to worry.”

Aubree wanted to speak further, but he had promptly dismissed her, adding, “If there’s nothing else, you may leave.” At that, Aubree abruptly froze. “But—”

How could I possibly leave when I haven’t even got the time to do anything?

Lucian swept his gaze over her. “Wasn’t it my mother who asked you to come and look in on me? You’ve seen me now, so it’s best that you go over quickly and tell her how I’m doing so that she won’t worry.”

After saying that, he withdrew his gaze, unwilling to lay eyes on her any longer than necessary. His insouciance had Aubree gritting her teeth hard. Even so, I must think of a way to draw close to him!

With that in mind, she cast a glance at the stairs at the door. A second later, she retracted her gaze and flashed the man a smile. “You’re right. I’ll leave you to it, then. Please excuse me.”

In response, Lucian nodded noncomittally. Pursing her lips, Aubree smiled before whirling around and walking toward the door. Unexpectedly, her foot slipped just as she reached the stairs.

“Ahh!” A shriek echoed in the mansion. Startled, Catalina hastily ran out to see what had happened.

She was greeted by the sight of Aubree sitting on the ground pathetically, curled into a ball while cradling her ankle with both hands and hissing her breaths perpetually.
