Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 969

Chapter 969 Too Anxious

Ten minutes ago, Catalina had been instructing the rest of the household staff on their chores when she heard the doorbell ring. The moment she opened the door, she saw that it was Sonya.

Before Catalina could greet her, Sonya questioned her, “Where’s Essie? Tell Essie to come out. Tell her that her grandma is here.” Catalina was put in a difficult position.

Estella had not been in the manor for the past few days. She had thought that the little girl was with Sonya. However, judging from Sonya’s reaction, Catalina knew there and then that Estella was with Roxanne.

It was obvious that Sonya must have discovered that, and that explained her anger. As a servant, Catalina did not know how to answer her question. In the end, she replied, “I will inform Mr. Farwell right away.”

She was about to go and seek help from Lucian when Sonya stopped her in her tracks.

“I want to see Essie. If she doesn’t come down, I will go up myself.”

With that, she began to walk upstairs.

Catalina had no choice but to lie and claim that she would get Estella when, in fact, she went upstairs to look for Lucian.

Sitting next to his mother, Lucian knew he could not hide the truth anymore. He told her honestly, “Essie isn’t here.”

Sonya looked even more upset when she heard that. “What do you mean by that?”

“Essie is not here right now, and you won’t be seeing her,” Lucian repeated calmly.

The moment he stopped talking, Sonya put down her cup. There was a loud sound when the cup hit the table.

“Where is she?”

Sonya had her own conclusion, but she still wanted to hear it from her son.

Lucian merely frowned and said nothing.
