The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 1466

After getting the doctor’s permission, Roxanne brought the children back.

Meanwhile, Elias and Sonya were waiting outside the kindergarten after school hours, but they saw no signs of Estella.

Soon, most of the children had been picked up, but there were still no signs of their granddaughter.

The two of them wanted to ask the teacher about what was going on, but they belatedly realized that they rarely sent and picked up Estella, so they did not even know which class the girl was in.

“There’s no sign of Essie around. I thought he said we could pick her up,” Sonya grumbled.

Elias had a grimace on his face, and he immediately called Lucian to question, “Did you talk to Roxanne about this? We’re at the kindergarten entrance, but we don’t see Essie anywhere.”

Lucian was confused when he heard that. “Give me a second. I’m going to call Roxanne. She agreed to this yesterday, so maybe something popped up.”

Elias said nothing to that, and Lucian called Roxanne after ending the call with Elias.

Roxanne was treating Benny’s wound, so it took her a while before she could answer the call.

“Where’s Essie?” came Lucian’s voice. “Did something happen?”

It was only then Roxanne recalled that Elias and his wife were supposed to pick Estella up that afternoon.

Lowering her gaze to look at the girl, Roxanne then apologetically said to Lucian, “Something happened on my side, so I picked Essie up first. Please ask if your parents mind picking her up from my place. I can’t leave at the moment.”

Estella seemed to have heard Roxanne’s words, for her already-worried expression became even more obvious.
