The Abandoned Wife

Chapter 840 I Know What She Wants To Say

Estella had always kept to a fixed daily routine. While at Roxanne's house, she had started getting drowsy at around nine o'clock in the evening and only became a little more awake while on the way home. Now, she had been sitting on the couch for a long time. Although she dearly wanted to wait for Lucian to return, she could not fight off the sleepiness that washed over her, and her eyes slowly closed. Catalina knew Estella's routine like the back of her hand. Upon seeing Estella's head droop lower and lower, she quickly hurried over to the girl's side, preparing to catch her at any time.

Just as Catalina anticipated, Estella fell fast asleep within a few minutes, and her body tilted to one side.
