Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 215

Chapter 215

Roxanne did not know how to face Estella due to her unpleasant encounters with Lucian.

She would even avoid talking about Estella whenever Archie and Benny brought her up.

It did not take long for the two sensitive boys to notice Roxanne‘s strange attitude toward Estella. Even though they were not avoiding Estella in school, their attitude toward the latter had become colder.

Estella hardly spoke since she had just learned to talk. She would only speak a few words when others brought up a topic that she was interested in. Estella‘s condition gradually returned to its original state when Archie and Benny did not take the initiative to talk to her. Furthermore, she had not seen Roxanne for a few days.

Lucian was the only one who noticed the changes in Estella.

A few days ago, Lucian could still hear Estella speak up occasionally after bringing her home. Nevertheless, Estella had been unwilling to talk for the past two days.

Lucian was worried that Estella might suffer a relapse. However, the only person who could improve Estella‘s condition had made it clear that she wanted to keep her distance from Lucian.

The man felt conflicted whenever he thought of Roxanne.

After picking Estella up from school in the evening, Lucian wanted to guide her into speaking by following James‘ method. “Essie, how are you doing in the last two days? Are you in a bad mood?”

That kind of one–sided conversation had been going on for several days. Nevertheless, Estella remained silent.

Lucian thought it would be the same that day. Surprisingly, the moment he finished speaking, a sweet but pitiful voice sounded in the car.

Pouting, Estella said dejectedly, “I didn‘t see...”

“What didn‘t you see?” Lucian probed, feeling confused.

Estella mumbled, “Ms. Jarvis.”

Then, she carefully counted on her fingers before stretching out four fingers. “Four days.”

I haven‘t seen Ms. Jarvis for four days. It was Ms. Lane who picked up Archie and Benny every day. Even though Ms. Lane was also kind to me, I still miss Ms. Jarvis dearly.

Waves of emotions surged within Lucian, knowing fully well that Estella could not see Roxanne because the latter was avoiding him on purpose.

As Roxanne said, the two of us are merely strangers right now.

Wait. Didn‘t she talk with me just now?
