“Ms. Jarvis.” Estella spoke, gingerly tugging on Roxanne’s outfit. 

Roxanne dropped her gaze and saw the little girl piteously looking at her with her big round eyes. She seemed to be asking why Roxanne was ignoring her. 

Roxame was ruffled by her puppy-dog eyes, but she could only return a forced smile. 

Lucian noticed her uneasiness with Estella. His brows furrowed, but he quickly hid his emotions and said, “We are counting on your support to make the play a success, Ms. Jarvis.
