Chapter 1054 Mindful of Your Words Upon realizing Roxanne didn’t feel any animosity towards her, Estella leaped into her arms happily. Smiling, Roxanne wrapped her arms around Estella and asked gently, “Why are you with Archie and Benny?” Hearing her question, Archie and Benny exchanged a sheepish glance before directing their gaze toward Estella.

Should we let Essie tell Mommy we sneaked her out, or should we tell her ourselves? It has been a while since Mommy and Essie last met. She won't get mad at Essie! Estella didn’t disappoint them, for she quickly revealed, “Archie and Benny cto visit me. | wanted to visit you, so | asked them to bringhere!” Her voice sounded smug.

Luckily, I followed them back. Otherwise, there is no telling when I'll get to meet Ms. Jarvis! Roxanne stiffened when she heard Estella’s answer.

Essie ran away from hwith Archie and Benny. If Lucian finds out about it, how should | explain it to him? He'll most probably assthe boys persuaded Essie to follow them back to my house.

Playvolume00:00/00:00TruvidfullScreen With that thought in mind, she released her hold on Estella slowly. Panic flashed across Estella’s face. “Ms. Jarvis, don’t get mad!” Roxanne patted her head comfortingly and explained, “I have to inform your dad that you're here. Otherwise, he’ll be concerned.” Estella muttered reluctantly, “I don’t want Daddy...” Daddy was the one who refused to letsee Ms. Jarvis, Archie, and Benny! Upon seeing Estella’s reaction at the mention of her dad, Roxanne felt troubled.

She could finally understand Sonya and Aubree’s feelings. Estella had a much stronger attachment to her than she did to Lucian. Therefore, it was understandable that they did not want the little girl to continue getting in touch with Roxanne.

Roxanne even cto the conclusion that they were correct, as Estella would soon be someone else’s daughter.

As a mother herself, she wouldn't want her child to have a close relationship with another woman.

However, Roxanne couldn't bring herself to ignore Estella, especially when the latter was pouting pitifully. “Be good. I'll talk to your daddy nicely,” she said and forced out a smile.

Roxanne stood up to make a call to Lucian.

She had just scrolled through her contacts and found Lucian’s number when the doorbell rang.

Hearing that, Roxanne paused in her tracks.

Estella clung to Roxanne’s leg like a frightened little animal and hid behind her.

She thought Lucian was here to bring her back home.

Roxanne gave her head a reassuring pat and went to answer the door.

The sight of the newcomer caused them to blanch in shock.

Estella was so flustered that she grasped the edge of Roxanne’s clothes tightly, desperately wanting to conceal herself completely behind Roxanne.

Archie and Benny pursed their lips and went to join Roxanne at the door.

Sonya’s lips twisted mockingly as she observed their actions. She then directed her gaze toward Roxanne.

“Catalina informedthat your boys had sneaked Essie out of the house, so | chere to verify if it was true.

Turns out Essie is indeed at your house.” Roxanne furrowed her brows and refuted, “Archie and Benny simply brought Essie back here so that they could play together. They are just children, so please be mindful of your words.” Claiming that the kids “sneaked” Estella out of her house was too serious an accusation.

Sonya pinned her with a withering stare. “Why? Did | say anything wrong?”
