Chapter 402 

It was already late in the night when Lucian returned to the Farwell residence 

Estella had already failen asleep a long while ago. 

Lucian‘s heart ached when he was reminded of how Roxanne had completely avoided mentioning Estella just now. He went upstairs to Estella‘s room. 

The liule girl had a serene sleeping posture. She lay on her side with half her face covered with blanket, seemingly sound asleep. 

 

Lucian‘s gaze softened at the sight of his daughter. He lifted his arm and patted her head. Then, he tucked her in before getting up and left. 

Just when he reached the door, he suddenly heard a sound behind him as if Estella was sobbing. 

He stopped abruptly in his tracks, turned on his heels, and returned to her bedside. Lucian gently pulled away the blanket covering Estella‘s face and saw her brows furrowed, eyes shut, and beads of tears staining her long eyelashes. 

He wondered what kind of nightmare she was experiencing 

Lucian felt sorrowful when he saw her daughter in that state. He raised his hand, wanting to wipe the tears off Estella‘s face.
