The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 498

Chapter 499

Pippa was already waiting by the gate when Roxanne arrived with her boys. She smiled and grected them.

“Hi, Ms. Jarvis. It has been a long time!” Pippa said.

Roxanne politely smiled and replied, “I’ve been busy at work lately. Did Archie and Benny give you any trouble?”

Roxanne suspected the boys might have done something wrong in school, resulting in their strange behavior that morning.

Surprisingly, Pippa shook her head and said, “Not at all! Archie and Benny are really good boys. Sometimes, they even help me look after other kids. I have to thank you for bringing up such sensible boys!”

Roxanne lowered her eyes and looked at the two boys that were standing by her side. They looked up to her with wide-eyed innocence, leaving her perplexed.

Seeing that they were not going to let her in on their secret, she gave up and looked away.

“Ms. Jarvis!”

A sweet, child-like voice rang out from behind Roxanne.

Roxanne turned around and saw Estella running toward her as fast as her tiny legs could take her. Her chubby little face was turning red from the exertion. The little girl was dressed in an adorable dress and had a head full of curly hair.

Roxanne was stunned by the sight of Estella’s curly hair. She bent over and hesitantly asked, “What happened to your hair, Essie?”.

She remembered Estella had naturally straight hair and wondered who styled her hair.
