Leaving The Country After Divorce

Chapter 770 I Will Not Be Infected

At the sight of Lucian’s condition, Roxanne couldn’t help frowning. Conversely, Estella merely heard that her condition was contagious but didn’t see the red spots on Lucian’s body. She shrunk to the side pitifully, refusing to allow the two adults to touch her further.

Gathering her wits about her, Roxanne dipped her eyes. When she saw Estella curled up in a ball, her heart clenched painfully. “Come over here, Essie. Let me have a look at you.”

Estella shook her head, replying timidly, “No, it’s okay. I’ll infect you, Ms. Jarvis.”

Her words had Roxanne’s eyes stinging. Smiling, she coaxed, “I’m not afraid. I’ve treated patients with similar conditions in the past and have suffered from this condition previously. Therefore, I won’t be infected anymore.”

Even Lucian was momentarily stupefied to hear that, mistakenly assuming that she was speaking the truth.

Estella scrutinized Roxanne suspiciously for a long time. Only when she had ascertained that the latter didn’t seem to be lying, and she was indeed feeling so awful that she couldn’t put up with it any longer did she slowly inch over to Roxanne and stretch her hand out.
