Mission To Remarry

Chapter 59

Chapter 59
Given that it was Catalina who always tended to Estella, Lucian didn’t have much experience dealing with children and thought his daughter was throwing a fit.
A look of panic flashed in the man’s eyes as he saw the little girl weep, but ultimately, he glared at her sternly.
“Stop crying,” he ordered, thinking he didn’t sound harsh at all.
Yet, he sounded especially fierce in the child’s ears.
With that, Estella began to cry harder. Tears gushed down her ashen cheeks like a river escaping a dam as she broke into an uncontrollable sob.
Lucian’s brows creased at the sight. He didn’t know how to react.

Meanwhile, Roxanne couldn’t watch how cold the man was toward his weeping daughter any further.
“Is that how you treat a child? She’s already in tears, and you’re still talking to her like this? Can’t you just talk to her nicely?”
Lucian froze at the woman’s sudden admonition.
Roxanne quickly strode over to Estella and knelt down to pull the little girl into her arms. “There, there, Essie. Don’t cry! You can come over to play whenever you like, okay? I’ll give you my number, so just let me know whenever you’re thinking of dropping by,” she assured tenderly. “Don’t cry anymore, okay? You won’t look pretty if you do.”
Meanwhile, Archie and Benny stood next to them with tissues in their hands. While coaxing Estella, Roxanne reached out for a piece of tissue and wiped the child’s tears.
IS.
The little girl slowly stopped crying and buried herself in Roxanne’s embrace.

Feeling her heart wrench, Roxanne held the child tightly and patted her on the back.
Archie and Benny were livid to see Estella having burst into tears like that, and they turned to Lucian indignantly.
“Why won’t you let Essie be friends with us?” Archie couldn’t help but question. “We’ve never been mean to her! For the past two times she ran away from home, my mommy’s the one who took care of her really well, and we’d play with her too. She has fun playing with us, and she likes us a lot, so why can’t she be friends with us? It’s not like we’re bad guys!”
