Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 761

Chapter 761 Worsen Her Condition

“Why shouldn’t I?” Lucian asked after a moment of silence.

“Because you’re courting Ms. Jarvis! So you have to make her happy!” Estella replied matter-of-factly.

Lucian furrowed his brows at her answer, and his gaze darkened.

Even Essie knows that. How could I have forgotten about it?

At the thought of Roxanne’s angry face, Lucian chuckled to himself self-deprecatingly.

No wonder there is no progress between us even though I’ve been pursuing her for so long.

Coming back to his senses, he apologized to Estella, “Sorry, I was wrong.”

Estella hummed in satisfaction. Then, she crossed her arms and demanded, “What did you do wrong, Daddy?”

Lucian glimpsed at her again through the rearview mirror and answered, “I shouldn’t have made Ms. Jarvis angry. I was too reckless.”

Estella was contented to hear her father admit his fault. She nodded before probing, “Why did you argue with Ms. Jarvis?”

Upon hearing that, Lucian shook his head in amusement.

This little brat! I already admitted to my mistake, yet she still wants to get to the bottom of the matter! Well, since she asked, I don’t mind telling her. I will need lots of help from her in the future, after all.

With that thought in mind, Lucian confessed, “There is some misunderstanding between us. I’m sure you’ve seen all the things I’ve been doing for Ms. Jarvis recently, but she just won’t accept me. So I felt anxious and wanted an explanation from her.”

All right, that’s all I will tell her. There’s no need to tell her about my rival. A child doesn’t need to know so much.

When he thought of the woman in his house, he felt troubled.

While he was talking to Roxanne earlier, the only thing on his mind was her relationship with Jack.

Now that he thought about it, Roxanne was right.

With Estella’s aversion to Aubree, the former’s condition would likely worsen if he continued to let Aubree stay.

However, with Sonya meddling in their matters, he would need to find an appropriate reason to make Aubree leave.

In the end, Lucian could only give Estella a vague answer. “If you don’t like her, I’ll make her leave as soon as possible.”

Estella bobbed her head in response, albeit reluctantly.
