Mission To Remarry

Chapter 216 

Lucian furrowed his brows. He could not help thinking of Roxanne. 

How did she manage to make Essie speak gradually?

Noticing that Estella only seemed to respond to the mention of Roxanne‘s name, Lucian inquired again, “Essie, did you want to see Ms. Jarvis that much?” 

Estella nodded vigorously and gazed at Lucian expectantly. She seemed to think that he had a way to let her meet Roxanne. 

When Lucian saw Estella‘s hopeful expression, his gaze darkened slightly. He silently averted his gaze. “She likes you very much, Essie. Maybe she‘s been busy with work lately. Hence, she didn‘t have time to pick up the boys. Don‘t worry.” 

Not receiving the answer she had hoped for, Estella cast her eyes downward dejectedly. She nodded weakly in response. 

No matter what Lucian said, Estella only responded by either nodding or shaking her head. She also fumbled around her bag for a notebook, intending to write down her reply for him.
