Chapter 746 No One Found Out

Aubree was already waiting at the dining table downstairs. When she saw Lucian and Estella coming downstairs,

she faced the girl apologetically. “I’m sorry, Essie. I think I said the wrong thing again earlier.”

Estella grabbed her father’s hand tightly as she glanced at him, nonverbally asking him if she really could ignore the

woman. He patted her head in consolation and pulled her to his side.

Both of them ignored Aubree. The atmosphere at the dining table was incredibly awkward.

Aubree was enraged when she saw the father-and-daughter duo sit down to eat without paying even a bit of

attention to her as though she wasn’t there. However, she couldn’t vent her anger and even had to try and please

the little girl.

“You’re still growing, Essie. You need to eat more so you’ll grow taller.” Wearing a fake smile, she put a piece of

pork on the girl’s plate.

Estella paused in her tracks as she stared at the pork on her plate. Lucian scrunched his brows as he removed the

pork from his daughter’s plate and explained apathetically, “Essie doesn’t like pork.”

Aubree’s expression shifted slightly. This is the Farwell residence. There’s no way the chef would make something

Essie doesn’t like to eat! This b*tch just doesn’t like the food I took for her!

Even though she realized that, she couldn’t complain, so she just gritted her teeth and apologized, “Is that so? I had

no idea. I’m sorry.”

Lucian nodded expressionlessly. “When I’m not around, Catalina will take care of Essie, so you don’t need to worry

about her. If you have time, spend it talking with your family.”

Pinching her palm, Aubree agreed.

After the awkward dinner was over, Lucian brought Estella back upstairs.

Aubree’s scowl intensified as she watched them leave.

As much as she didn’t want to admit it, his actions so far had clearly shown her that he had no feelings for her.

In fact, it was even possible that he saw her as a liability.

That thought filled her heart with despair.

“Do you still want to eat, Ms. Pearson?” Catalina asked in concern when she saw Aubree remain still at the dining

table for a long while.

Suppressing the rage in her heart, Aubree smiled at her. “I haven’t been able to sleep well for these two days. Can

you bring me a bottle of red wine?”

Catalina didn’t give that request too much thought before grabbing an opened bottle of red wine from a wine

cabinet filled with alcohol meant to serve guests.

After thanking Catalina, Aubree returned to her room with a decanter and the bottle of red wine. Right now, only

wine can lift my spirits and make me temporarily forget about Lucian…

With that thought in mind, she glugged down the bottle of wine like water. She didn’t care how she was supposed to

drink red wine and just gulped it down.

Not long after, the aftereffect of the red wine kicked in.

Aubree’s cheeks turned red, her eyes filled with drunkenness. All she could think of was, ironically, Lucian.

Due to her state of tipsiness, she became even more rash than usual. As she thought about Lucian, she staggered

out of the room in a wobbly manner. He should be in the study right now…

With one hand pressing on the wall to support herself, she stumbled toward the study and muttered, “Lucian…

Lucian…”

Lucian usually had to work even when he was at home, so the second floor usually didn’t have any housekeepers

around. That was why no one noticed Aubree was acting oddly.

She arrived at the door of the study without any trouble and stared at the tightly shut door before knocking on it

amidst her inebriation.
