Chapter 763 That Girl Will Regret It
After Lucian brought Estella to wash her hands, they came out and sat at the dining table.
They sat at the same side of the table, leaving Aubree alone on the opposite side. It was clear as day that they were giving her the cold shoulder.
Feeling their aversion toward herself, Aubree dug her nails into her palm quietly to suppress her boiling rage. “Essie, did you have fun with your daddy today?” she asked with a nonchalant smile.
Let’s see if the father-daughter duo is going to tell me the truth!
Naturally, Estella turned a deaf ear to her question, and Lucian merely glanced at her meaningfully, looking as if he had seen through something.
Aubree shuddered involuntarily and steeled herself to carry on with the one-sided conversation. “I figure Essie probably had nothing to play with when she was staying at the office with you. You’re always busy with work, so I’m worried she might be bored.”
After saying that, she turned to Estella and continued with a smile tugging at her lips, “Let’s play together later, okay? I bought a lot of games for you today.”
Estella pursed her lips and shook her head.
If I hadn’t known the way Estella behaves in front of Roxanne, I would have thought that this girl is a mute. But it turns out that Little Mute has a silver tongue in front of that b*tch, Roxanne!
Waves of exasperation washed over Aubree, but the smile on her lips grew even more genuine as she went on, “What do you want to play, then, Essie? I can play with you.”
Estella lost her appetite after hearing what Aubree said. She put down the fork in her hand and gazed pleadingly at her father, silently asking for his approval.
Lucian knew that Estella wanted to go upstairs to escape Aubree’s ingratiation, but he furrowed his brows and did not agree to her request.
Essie has always been sickly. I won’t let her go without eating.
