Noticing that Lucian still had a look of guilt in his eyes, Roxanne pursed her lips and held his hand as she added,

“Nothing like that will happen to Essie ever again.”

“We’ll do our best to protect Essie too!” Archie and Benny chimed in.

The look in Lucian’s eyes softened up a little after he heard that, much to Roxanne’s relief.

“Maybe I should bring Essie over to my place for the day. She has been through quite a lot today,” she suggested.

Roxanne could tell that Estella was still unable to accept Sonya, so she was worried that Lucian’s decision to have

Sonya stay over at the manor would affect Estella’s emotional state.

Estella wrapped her arms tightly around Roxanne’s neck upon hearing that as she wanted to stay with her.

However, Lucian did not approve of Roxanne’s suggestion. “Take her to the bedroom and get some rest. Essie won’t

pay too much attention to anything else with you around.”

Roxanne was a little hesitant to do so, but Estella nodded profusely in agreement.

I’m not afraid of anyone as long as Aunt Roxanne is with me!

Roxanne couldn’t bring herself to say no when she saw the expectant look in Estella’s eyes. Eventually, she gave in

and brought the three kids over to Estella’s bedroom.

Lucian, Cayden, and Cory were the only ones remaining in the living room.

Having witnessed Lucian unleash his wrath upon Aubree earlier, Cory was exceptionally cautious when approaching

Lucian. “M-Mr. Farwell…”

Whatever warmth Lucian had in his eyes had disappeared when he turned around and asked, “How much do you

want?”

“T-Thirty million will suffice!” Cory replied nervously while holding up three fingers.

Lucian turned around and instructed Cayden, “Go ahead and pay him three hundred thousand. I do not want to

hear anything about him in Chanaea starting tomorrow!”

Cory was frozen in shock when he heard that.

Wait a minute… Did I hear that right? Three hundred thousand? That’s a hundred times lesser than what I asked

for! Paying thirty million is a piece of cake for someone as wealthy as Lucian, so why isn’t he willing to pay me the

full amount?

Cayden then stuffed a check worth three hundred thousand into Cory’s coat pocket.

“You nearly helped Aubree get rid of Ms. Estella, so be grateful that you’re even getting paid at all. In fact, you

should consider yourself lucky that Mr. Farwell didn’t have you killed. Now, take this money and get lost!”

Having snapped out of his dazed state, Cory shifted his gaze between the check and Lucian’s icy-cold expression.

“P-Please forgive me, Mr. Farwell! I have a huge gambling debt! They’ll kill me if I don’t pay up! Please help me!”

As though he didn’t hear a word Cory said, Lucian simply stared silently at him with no emotion whatsoever.

Cayden grabbed Cory by the arm and began dragging him toward the door. “Shut up, or I’ll take this check back as

well!”

Cory struggled with all of his might, but he couldn’t break free from Cayden’s vice-like grip. Cayden opened the

front door and tossed him out like a bag of trash.

Cory’s face went completely pale as he watched the mansion door close in front of him.

This is all Aubree’s fault! I wouldn’t be in this position if it weren’t for her!

“I’ve taken care of him, Mr. Farwell. The guys from Marsingfill will be informed of his location tomorrow,” Cayden

said as he made his way over to Lucian.

Lucian simply nodded without saying anything.

Cayden glanced at the back garden as he continued cautiously, “Mr. Farwell, about the decorations in the back

garden…”

The look on Lucian’s face changed slightly when he heard Cayden mention the back garden. After a brief pause, he

turned around and made his way toward the back garden.
