After a prolonged moment of silence, Sonya said with a gloomy look on her face, “You’re going to go that far for

her, huh? Fine! I’ll leave so I won’t get in the way of your happy little family!”

She turned around and was about to leave when Lucian called out to her, “You should stay in the manor for today. I

have something to announce once Essie feels better.”

Sonya paused in her tracks and shot him a confused glance. “What is it?”

This is the first time Lucian has asked me to stay over at the manor, so whatever it is he wants to announce must

be very important. Wait a minute… He said he was fine with giving up his position as CEO of Farwell Group earlier…

Is that what he’s going to announce? This is all Roxanne’s fault! Lucian wouldn’t have made such irrational decisions

if it weren’t for her!

Sonya turned toward Roxanne and shot her a vicious glare.

Roxanne simply ignored her gaze and continued comforting Estella.

“You’d better think this through, Lucian. Ask yourself if that woman is worth you giving up Farwell Group!” Sonya

warned Lucian with a furious look in her eyes.

Lucian could tell from Sonya’s behavior that she was starting to get scared.

“Just because I have something to announce doesn’t necessarily mean it’s about Farwell Group, so you have

nothing to worry about.”

Sonya paused and looked suspiciously at them for a few seconds before going up the stairs.

Realizing that Aubree and Sonya were gone from the living room, Estella slowly stopped sobbing and looked up at

Roxanne with tears in her eyes.

Roxanne felt her heart ache when she met Estella’s eyes. “Don’t worry, Essie. I’ll be sure to protect you.”

Essie must’ve suffered a lot while she was under Aubree’s care… Just thinking about what she said earlier makes

me hate her even more! Essie couldn’t even talk at the time! How could she do that to her?

She was snapped out of her train of thought when Lucian whispered in her ear, “I’m sorry.”

Roxanne looked up at him in confusion.

Lucian was plagued with guilt when he looked at them and recalled what Estella had said while she was crying

earlier.

He walked up to Estella and flashed her an apologetic look. “I’m sorry I didn’t take good care of you.”

Estella simply sniffled and shook her head profusely in response.

“You’ve disliked Aubree for the past six years. I can’t believe I never realized the actual reason behind it…” Lucian

continued with a look of regret in his eyes.

Estella reached out and caressed his cheek as she said, “It’s not your fault, Daddy! She’s the bad person here!

She’s the worst!”

I had wanted to tell Daddy about it through text before, but Ms. Pearson lied to me and said Daddy would never kick

her out. She even threatened to hit me even harder if I tried to tell Daddy, so I had no choice but to put up with her.

Now I realize she was lying all along! Not only would Daddy kick her out, but he would also punish her severely!

Lucian gave Estella a kiss on the back of her hand before shifting his gaze toward Roxanne. “I’m sorry,” he said

apologetically.

Roxanne frowned in confusion, as she didn’t know what he was apologizing to her for.

Even so, she couldn’t help but comfort him when she saw how guilty he felt.

“You are indeed at fault for placing Essie in Aubree’s care for six years. However, the fact that Essie likes you so

much indicates that you provide her with a strong sense of security, so you must’ve been a good father. Whatever

happened is in the past. You’ve already punished Aubree for what she did, so that’s enough to make up for your

mistakes.”
