The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 1059

Chapter 1059 Please Let Estella Stay

“Ms. Jarvis has a lot on her hands, so don’t cause her any more trouble.” Lucian bent down to grab Estella’s unoccupied hand.

Estella’s strength was drained after bawling for a long time, so she let go of Roxanne’s hand the moment Lucian took her in his arms.

The woman instinctively tightened her grip but eventually let the girl go when she remembered the man’s harsh words. With Estella in his arms, Lucian patted her comfortingly on the back before turning around to leave.

“Daddy!” Suddenly, a childish voice cried out from behind and caused Lucian to stop dead in his tracks. Roxanne’s expression changed as she regarded her son.

Benny’s voice was loud when he called Lucian that, and his face had turned bright red, probably due to anxiety. The moment the word left his mouth, Benny regretted his action.

He knew he shouldn’t have done that, but he had no idea how else to stop Lucian from leaving.

At that moment, Benny did not have to lift his head to look at his mother because he could already sense her shocked gaze.

Panicking, the boy then turned to his brother for help.

Archie, knitting his eyebrows, pretended to be calm even though he was flustered as well. “Mr. Farwell, you’re Essie’s father, yet you don’t know what she needs? If a psychologist can actually help her, then why was she mute before she met us?”

Benny quickly chimed in, “If we had a daddy, we wouldn’t like it if he forced us to do things we don’t want to do!”

The boys’ words were enough to make the two adults waver once again, and Lucian began pondering. Benny’s not wrong. If a psychologist were the solution, Essie wouldn’t have refused to talk. However, how can I allow Essie to continue relying on Roxanne since she wanted nothing more than to cut ties with me?
