Chapter 555 Estella remained in Roxanne’s arms for a while. When she was finally awake, she pulled herself from Roxanne’s embrace and looked up. Estella frowned when she noticed that Roxanne looked pale. Ms. Jarvis, are you okay? You don’t look so good.

Roxanne touched her face, surprisedly, wondering what the girl spotted as she had not looked at herself in the mirror since she woke up.

She had no idea how bad she looked at that moment. Oh, | drank a lot yesterday, and | even slept late. There's no way | look refreshed after so little sleep. Before Roxanne could reply, the girl wrinkled her nose and sniffed the air. Why do | smell alcohol? Roxanne smiled at her. | went down to have some wine yesterday because | couldnt sleep. That's probably why | look tired. I'm actually having a slight headache too. Upon hearing this, Stella reached out and touched her for it carefully. The smile on rocks.

Ann's face grew wider when she saw how much the child cared for her.

After some time, Estella slowly retracted her hand and glanced at the water and medication on the nightstand. Although she had no idea what those were for, she passed them to Roxanne nonetheless. An inexplicable feeling rose in Roxanne’s heart when she saw that glass of water.

It reminded her of what she had said to Lucian the night before. Seeing that Roxanne did not take the water from her, Estella held it out closer to her, but the woman pushed it away because she did not feel like having it.

Her rejection confused the girl, who then tilted her head. It's cold. I'd like some warm water. Besides, | don’t need that medication anymore, Roxanne said, forcing a smile. Since Roxanne had said so, Estella simply nodded quietly and put the pills back. Then she grabbed the glass carefully and got off the bed to get some warm water for Roxanne.

When she returned, Roxanne took the glass from her, had two sips, and then brought the girl to wash up in the bathroom. By the time they came out, Archie and Benny were already waiting for them in the room. Mommy, did you drink yesterday? The boys asked. They smelled alcohol the moment they entered the room, and the pills on the nightstand confirmed their thought.

Roxanne nodded.

There was no point trying to hide it from the boys. | couldn't sleep because of the bed, so | went down to have some.
