The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 1036

Chapter 1036 Her Friends

Archie and Benny hailed a taxi as soon as they successfully snuck out of the mansion. Initially, the driver was hesitant to drive both children upon seeing them.

However, he glanced at the residential area where they came running out from and started the engine immediately after they informed him of their destination.

This will earn me a lot, given how rich their parents are! All the while, neither of the boys was aware of the driver’s thoughts as they focused on coming up with excuses for when they met their father.

After a while, the car stopped in front of the Farwell residence. The driver looked at the entrance of the house while waiting eagerly for someone to come out and pay him.

Archie took out a hundred from his small backpack and handed it over to the driver. “You can keep the change.”

The price meter indicated that the trip would cost them sixty, but the kids didn’t feel like getting their change back in their eagerness to meet up with Estella.

Meanwhile, the driver was startled by the relatively small amount he got. The children had gotten out of the taxi by the time he snapped back to his senses.

Despite Archie being the taller of the two, he could only reach the doorbell while standing on his toes given their height. Someone answered the intercom as soon as it rang.

“Who’s there?” Catalina was stunned for a moment as she stared at the screen, on which nobody was visible.

After a moment, she heard the childish voices of Archie and Benny. “It’s us, Ms. Catalina! We would like to visit Essie!”

Catalina felt for the children upon hearing that. Estella must’ve wanted to meet with them two, seeing how she spent the night before weeping.

However, Lucian had left with her early that morning. Moreover, he made a point to instruct her to deny the boys entry if they happened to drop by.

Upon recalling that, Catalina had no choice but to steel herself and inform the boys, “Ms. Estella isn’t home. You should leave.”

She averted her gaze and hung up immediately after, unable to face them. Meanwhile, the boys exchanged looks of suspicion while still standing at the entrance to the manor.
