The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 918

Chapter 918 Let The Matter Drop

That night, Lucian went to the kindergarten to pick Estella up. It was already late by the time he arrived, so Estella was the only kid left at the kindergarten.

“Daddy,” Estella greeted him aggrievedly after noticing his arrival. He patted her head apologetically. “I’m sorry that I’m late.” Then, he looked up and nodded at Pippa.

Pippa had waited with Estella the whole night. Now that Lucian had finally shown up, she could rest assured and let him take the little girl home.

After bringing Estella into the car, Lucian sat idly for some time instead of starting the vehicle. Estella urged him in puzzlement, “Daddy?” Her voice pulled him back to reality.

He glanced at the little girl through the rearview mirror and saw a bewildered expression spread across her face.

“Have you seen Ms. Jarvis in the past few days?” he asked.

Estella became crestfallen upon listening to his question and shook her head dejectedly.

However, she quickly turned delighted. “Archie and Benny said I’ll be able to meet with Ms. Jarvis tomorrow during the camping trip!”

If it weren’t because of the fact that she had been looking forward to the weekend camping trip, Estella would’ve been utterly depressed in the past few days.

She wondered if Roxanne was getting busy with work again because she hadn’t seen the latter for so many days.

Lucian nodded and piped up, “What do you say if I bring you to meet with Ms. Jarvis?”

Estella’s eyes lit up at once. “Really?”

Taking in her expression, he gradually realized what he had just said and couldn’t help but regret his impulsive suggestion.

After all, he was still mad at Roxanne.

Still, Jonathan’s advice in the morning lingered in his mind the whole time.

I didn’t know anything about this significant incident where her research institute caught fire. I wonder if she’s injured.
