Chapter 272
Lucian did not hesitate as he made his way to the botanical garden right away.
Estella wanted to hang out with Roxanne, so the only place she would go was to the latter. Besides the botanical garden. there was nowhere else she could go.
Lucian ran all the way to the botanical garden, but Estella was nowhere to be seen.
His heart sank. He fished his phone out of his pocket and called Roxanne.
Roxanne was strolling around the botanical garden with the kids when her phone rang. She couldn‘t help frowning when she saw the caller ID on her screen.
Lucian? Shouldn‘t he be with Aubree? Why is he calling me?
The phone rang for quite some time before Roxanne finally picked it up.
“Have you seen Essie?” Lucian asked in his deep voice the moment the call connected.
He sounds nervous.
Roxanne didn‘t know why, but she had a bad feeling. “No, I haven‘t seen her. What happened?”
Lucian scanned his surroundings. He didn‘t dare to blink because he was worried that he would miss his daughter. “Essie is missing.”
Roxanne‘s heart trembled when she heard that. Panic was written all over her face. “Isn‘t she with you? How did she get lost?”
Thinking about the events that led to Estella going missing made Lucian frown. “It‘s a long story. Let‘s look for her for now. She should be somewhere around the botanical garden.”
Roxanne dared not dawdle. She immediately agreed to his plan. “Okay, I‘ll search around the place with the kids.”
After hanging up, she turned to Archie and Benny, wanting to bring them along to search for Estella.
“Mommy, what‘s wrong?” asked the kids in confusion when they saw the panicked look on Roxanne‘s face.
Archie, however, was calmer. He let go of his mother‘s hand and suggested, “Mommy, let‘s split up. We‘ll have a better chance of finding her that way.”
Roxanne wasn‘t worried about Archie and Benny getting lost, so she simply advised, “Okay, look for ner inside the botanical garden. If you can‘t find her, then go to the entrance and wait for me there.”

GREAT! Chapter 1970 was actually a repeat of Chapter 1770! And the same up to 1976! Now Ive missed 6 chapters and no idea what is happening! Plus all those sections that are badly typed then typed again and then again correctly……what a waste of “chapters”....
Wish there was more to the story, like how the triplets end up and if the twins are as smart as their older siblings. Beautiful story 😊...
Very best book out there, full of surprises and true love. Recommend to all....
How did she leave a child behind with her husband that was same age as her two boys. This makes no sense....
