Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 820

Chapter 820 Console Essie

“You can’t?” Having received no answer from Roxanne, Estella lowered her eyes in disappointment and despair.

Roxanne’s heart ached when she saw the girl’s disappointment, but there was nothing she could do besides giving her a merciless rejection. Patiently, she explained to the girl, “Essie, you’ll have your own mommy, and once you have your mommy, you’ll find out that liking mommy and liking me don’t feel the same.”

“You won’t—” Roxanne said in resignation when she saw Estella’s tears.

However, before she could finish her sentence, the girl gave her a heart wrenching look.

In the next second, Estella let go of her shirt and ran outside.

“Essie!” Roxanne cried out when she returned to her senses. Right as she was about to run after the girl, the man beside her had already sped off after her.

Essie dashed off because of me. If she sees me again, will she feel worse? Should I… not show up around her for a while for now?

When they saw their mother’s pale face, they decided not to go after Estella. Instead, they went to their mother’s side silently and muttered, “Mommy…”

They could see that their mother seemed sad as well, but they did not know how to console her. They held their tongues after that and merely kept her company at the side.

Roxanne gradually came back to her senses a while later. She lowered her gaze to look at the boys and whispered, “Should I not have rejected Essie just now?”
