Chapter 196 

While holding Estella‘s hand, Lucian stared at the woman, who had an indifferent expression on her face at a near distance away. In a slightly sarcastic voice, he retorted, “Even if we‘re strangers. vou don‘t need to avoid me like the plague, Ms. Jarvis. I‘m going to send Essie to the kindergarten anyway, and I‘ll drive past your research institute from the kindergarten to Farwell Group. That‘s the reason I offered to give you a ride. What‘s your concern, Ms. Jarvis?” 

In other words, he was implying that Roxanne was overthinking things. 

Estella wanted to be with Roxanne for a while longer, so she gazed at the latter pitifully upon hearing that, “Ms. Jarvis.” 

Unbidden, Roxanne‘s heart melted. 

Furthermore, she had no refutation to Lucian‘s words. 

They merely had nothing to do with each other, so her repeated demurral of such innocuous things made her appear rather petty. 

At that thought, she relented and said to Lysa, “You may go back first. I‘ll take them to kindergarten.” 

Lysa murmured in acknowledgment and handed Archie and Benny to Roxanne. 

Archie and Benny were still prejudiced against Lucian, so they were a touch hesitant, knowing that they were riding with the man again. 

Estella, on the other hand, had already dropped her father‘s hand and went over to clutch Roxanne‘s dress. It was clear that she wanted to sit with Roxanne.
