The Abandoned Wife

Chapter 284 I Did Not Take Care Of Her

Roxanne couldn't bear to leave the little girl alone in the ward. Estella was still afraid and refused to release her grip on the corner of Roxanne's clothes. Roxanne felt guilty at the sight of Estella's pale face. She caressed Estella's cheek and apologized, "I shouldn't have rejected you this afternoon. I'm really sorry." Estella shook her head silently.
