Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 430

Chapter 430

Roxanne‘s words caused Lucian to cock his brow as he looked down at Estella, whose hand he was holding.

Estella, visibly nervous, was hanging her head in dejection as she tightened her grip on his hand.

Trailing his gaze and noticing the disappointment on Estella‘s face, Roxanne felt her heart melt.

In the past, Estella would have jumped with joy at the sight of her. But on that day, she looked apprehensive and was wary of getting close.

It must be because I told her to keep her distance before I went overseas the last time. Archie and Benny have been talking about her when they are home. She must be missing me.

Roxanne sighed in her heart. She leaned closer to stroke Estella‘s hair before consoling her, “I‘m all right. I just didn‘t want you to worry. Look, don‘t I look fine to you?”

Estella, feeling the warmth from Roxanne‘s palm, briefly hesitated before pursing her lips and raising her head to stare at the latter.

The moment their eyes met, Roxanne‘s tender smile brimmed with affection.

Only then did Estella gradually curl her lips, albeit lacking in courage to approach Roxanne still.

Seeing that Roxanne didn‘t return after a long while, the curious Archie and Benny went to the door to check.

When they saw the two visitors at the door, both of them exchange hesitant glances.

They were delighted to see Essie but were reluctant to let Lucian come in.

They felt conflicted and didn‘t know how to face the visitors.

“Mommy.” After a moment‘s hesitation, they finally came up to Roxanne.
