Chapter 627
When Lucian heard Estella mention Aubree, his gaze darkened. No wonder Roxanne still wouldn’t accept me! Even Essie knows about the entanglement I have with Aubree. Surely, Roxanne is still bothered by it. No matter what, I must pick up my pace and get Mom to forget about Aubree.
Lucian pulled himself out of his reverie and asked in a deep voice, “Do you like Ms. Pearson?”
Estella shook her head vigorously. Why on. earth would I like that evil woman? She’s only nice to me when Daddy is present. Whenever he wasn’t around, she would pinch my arms and spank me!
Lucian nodded and made a promise to Estella. “I won’t marry someone you don’t like.”
Estella’s eyes lit up once again.
“But if you want Ms. Jarvis to be your mommy, I’m going to need your help, Essie.” Lucian shot Estella a meaningful look. Perplexed, Estella tilted her head. Daddy is already sa catable. Why does he need my help?
Seeing that Estella was confused, Lucian helplessly patted her head and explained, “There’s some misunderstanding between Ms. Jarvis and me. Essie, help me clear up the misunderstanding.. okay?”
Knowing that she could make Roxanne her mother, Estella agreed to his suggestion at once. “Okay!”
After that, Estella looked at Lucian in confusion. “But what do I need to do to help?”
