Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 679

Chapter 679

Roxanne had only snapped out of her own thoughts and took over the bouquet of flowers because of the girl’s voice She glanced at the man before her and muttered softly, “Thank you”

The little girl beamed sweetly when Roxanne accepted the flowers

Nevertheless, Lucian remained impassive and urged Estella, “Close the door We should head back now”

Estella nodded and reached out to close the door

“Mr Farwell, Essie is still a child Please be more gentle when you talk to her” Roxanne could not stop herself from reminding Lucian again

After spending more time with the father and daughter duo, Roxanne realized that even though Lucian was meticulous in caring for the little girl, his tone was sometimes too harsh on her

Roxanne’s boys would even get startled by his stern tone sometimes, not to mention Estella, who needed more attentive care

She had only reminded him out of goodwill Yet, she got a rather ambiguous reply from the man “Essie doesn’t need me to be more gentle. She needs a mother If you’re truly worried about her, why don’t you reconsider what I’ve said?”

Roxanne’s face st.ffened slightly. She cast a glance at Estella, who had overheard their conversation

The little girl cocked her head to one side and blinked in confusion, pretending as if she did not understand a single thing.

Roxanne breathed a sigh of relief. Nonetheless, she still did not know how to reply to him.

“Essie, close the door” Lucian did not expect her to reply and asked the little girl to close the door.

Roxanne took a step backward with Archie and Benny. After the door was closed, Lucian slowly drove away

He said he wouldn’t force me against my will, yet he said something like that right in front of Estella Roxanne reckoned that he was still mad about her and Jack’s relationship.

Lucian could feel Estella’s burning gaze on the back of his head. He furrowed his brows and asked, “What’s wrong? Weren’t you all right just now?”

Noticing that her father was finally talking to her, Estella said in a huff, “Why were you so stern toward Ms. Jarvis? She’s going to run away if you keep doing that!”

Lucian frowned in response. He could not help but notice how much Estella resembled Roxanne in her

mannerism. After all, Roxanne had also reminded him to be more gentle toward Estella.

This mother–and–daughter duo really does have each other’s backs, huh?

“No. I just want her to reconsider my offer. I’ve only said it like that so that she’ll take it seriously,” Lucian explained. He was feeling rather exasperated with himself.
