Mission To Remarry Chapter 54

Given how well-raised the boys were, they shook their heads despite liking the toys, knowing how expensive these things were. “We can’t accept these. They’re too expensive.”

Estella tilted her head in confusion before placing the toys next to them and scribbling on her notebook again: For you. Thank. Help.

Benny peered at her writing in bewilderment.

She can’t write a complete sentence. What is she trying to say?

Archie was initially perplexed as well, but realization quickly dawned on him. “Are you trying to say you’re thanking us for our help that day?”

Nodding fervently, Estella put the book down and held the car figurines in front of them once more.

Roxanne thought back to what her sons’ kindergarten teacher had told her about Archie and Benny having protected Estella.

I remember the teacher mentioning it. What on earth could’ve happened between mere children, though?

But judging from Essie’s behavior, whatever Archie and Benny did for her seems like a really big deal to her.

“What happened that day?” Roxanne couldn’t help but ask.

“Essie got hurt after another student pushed her,” explained Archie. “Benny and I got that student to apologize to Essie, and then we took Essie to the school nurse.”

Roxanne nodded in enlightenment.

“Can we accept these gifts, Mommy?” Archie felt sorry to see the little girl continue to hold the toys in her hand.

Roxanne chuckled. “Okay. Give her something of yours in return.”

The boys finally took the toy cars from Estella, not forgetting to express their gratitude. “Thanks, Essie! Wait for us here, okay? We’ll get you some gifts too!”

Then, they scurried upstairs and began searching their room for something they could give the little girl in return.

Now, only Roxanne and Estella remained inside the living room.

Seeing how obedient the girl looked. Roxanne couldn’t resist showing her concern. “Does your hand still hurt?”
