Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 749

Chapter 749 Fear

When Aubree revealed her true colors and put on a frightening expression, Estella jumped in fear and wanted to go to Lucian. However, her wrist was grabbed by Aubree, and she couldn’t break free.

Staring coldly at the girl, Aubree uttered, “If you don’t want to suffer, you better obey me! Don’t piss me off, do you understand?” Inside the bathroom, Lucian was taking a shower when he called Roxanne.

He knew how much of a workaholic she was, so he was worried Roxanne might not be there when Cayden sent Estella over. The little girl would throw a temper tantrum if she didn’t get to see Roxanne. That was why he was calling her, to make sure she was around.

Thankfully, she picked up the call rather quickly. “What’s the matter, Lucian?” Roxanne sounded groggy. She might have just woken up, or she was woken up by the call.

Amused by her sleepy tone, Lucian apologized softly, “Did I wake you up? Sorry.”

She yawned slightly and sat up in bed. “It’s okay. I should be waking up at this time, anyway. I think I overslept a little. Why are you calling me early in the morning?”

“Essie wants to go to your place. Do you have time during the morning for that? If it’s not convenient for you, I can ask her to stay in the company with me.”

After spending time with Roxanne for a while, Lucian figured out her preferred way of interacting between the two of them. Therefore, he would use a negotiating tone whenever he spoke to her.

Roxanne pondered for a while before agreeing. “Got it. I’ll be at home in the morning.”

He was astounded when he heard her agree to it readily. Raising his eyebrows in surprise, he hummed in response and told her the estimated time that Estella would arrive before ending the call.
