Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 502

Chapter 502

When Estella heard that Roxanne wanted to switch to another group for the play, she pouted in distress and looked to her daddy for help.

Lucian appeared emotionless, but his mouth was tensely shut. Although he did not say anything, it was obvious he was pissed.

Before he made his way to the kindergarten that morning, he told himself he would avoid getting into a disagreement with Roxanne. However, when he saw she was adamant about switching groups with Cassandra, he couldn’t help but get furious.

Estella suddenly recalled what Lucian had told her the night before. He had told her he would need her help to mend their relationship with Roxanne. .

She turned her gaze from Lucian and looked toward Roxanne. She was sniffling as she looked piteously at Roxanne, and tears were brimming in her reddened eyes.

Her loud sniffling was very conspicuous in the noiseless classroom, and everyone turned to look at her and Roxanne.

“I want Archie and Benny!” Estella cried out, pouting and heaving as she tried to control her tears.

Everyone felt sorry for her and turned to look disapprovingly at Roxanne.

“She’s so blessed to be grouped with Mr. Farwell. Many of us would fight for that chance, and yet she wanted to switch. What’s wrong with her?”

“The kids got along so well with one another, but she insisted on breaking them apart. Can’t she spare a thought for the kids?”

The other parents started whispering in hushed tones at the unexpected turn of the event.

Roxanne was not oblivious to Estella’s anguish and the accusations from the other parents.

For a moment, she nearly decided to take back her word after seeing how sad Estella was. However, she managed to steel herself, look away, and say, “Ms. Ward, if you have no objections, Ms. Clark and I will confirm the switch.”

She didn’t want Sonya to jeopardize her hard-earned opportunity to work with the Damaris family.

Lucian threw a glance in Roxanne’s direction.

When he realized she was not going to change her mind, a displeased look flashed across his face.

He stood up and announced, “I have no issue with the switch since Ms. Jarvis is reluctant to partner with us and insists on that. However, as you can see, Essie will suffer if she cannot be in a group with Archie and Benny. As such, I seek your understanding that we’ll have no choice but to withdraw from this year’s performance.”

Emotionlessly, he gave a slight bow in apology and strode out of the classroom with a reluctant Estella.

Estella was hyperventilating from the weeping and struggling violently against Lucian.

It was a heart-rending sight, and all the parents turned shockingly toward Roxanne, hoping she would step up to salvage the situation.
