    Chapter 133 Mother Of Este


    That night, after Roxanne asked Archie and Benny to head to bed, she went back to the room to take


    care of Este.


    Once Catalina learned that Este had recovered, she stuck to the girl’s side like glue.


    In fact, the two women even showered Este together.


    Catalina’s heart ached when she saw the bruise on Este’s bottom. Instantly, she could not help but


    himself to be stern with her…”


    Hearing that, Este blinked at Catalina. Nevertheless, when she thought about Aubree’s warning, she


    mped her mouth shut.


    All of a sudden, Roxanne recalled what Lucian had said back at the haunted house.


    The mystery of Este’s mother’s identity kept swirling in her head.


    Upon thinking about how Catalina had been working in the Farwell residence for all those years and


    about how she might know something, Roxanne asked in a nonchnt tone, “Catalina, why didn’t


    Essie’s mothere and visit her despite how bad her episode was? Did some other emergency


    happen?”


    Hearing that, Catalina visibly stiffened before looking at Roxanne in shock.


    She thought Roxanne had known that Este was her child all along. After all, she gave birth to Este.


    That was why the question startled her that much.


    Ms. Jarvis is subtly asking me who’s Essie’s biological mother? How am I supposed to answer that?


    A moment of hesitationter, Catalina asked, “Did… Mr. Farwell not talk to you about this before?”


    Roxanne thought that her response was strange, but she could not fathom why. Hence, she replied,


    “He only told me that Essie’s biological mother isn’t Aubree.”


    So Mr. Farwell knows about this as well, but he didn’t tell Ms. Jarvis about it.


    Catalina came to a conclusion at that. She then smiled at Roxanne and said, “Did you think that it was


    Ms. Pearson all along? Ms. Este looks nothing like her. I’m not sure why you thought that.”


    Roxanne chuckled. “Then can you tell me who’s Essie’s biological mother?”


    Catalina shook her head. “This is Mr. Farwell’s personal matter. I wouldn’t dare to tell anyone about it.


    It’s best for you to wait until Mr. Farwell tells you about it himself.”


    With that said, Catalina threw herself back into her work. She dared not continue the topic any longer,


    for she was afraid that she might let something slip.


    When Roxanne noticed how Catalina was avoiding the topic, she stopped prodding for more


    information.


    Still, a trace of suspicion lingered in her mind.


    After all, she had seen for herself how obsessed Lucian was with Aubree all those years ago.


    In fact, the man had even dered that Aubree was the only one worthy of being his wife.


    How did he end up having a child with another woman then? What kind of feelings does he have


    toward Aubree? Could it be that their feelings for each other are fading after six years?

    Roxanne simply could not seem to find an answer no matter how hard she tried. Instead, she only


    made herself frustrated.


    After bathing Este, Roxanne brought the girl to bed. Even then, she continued to wonder about the


    subject.


    It seemed like Este could see that Roxanne had something on her mind, for the girl buried herself


    into Roxanne’s arms slowly before looking at the woman with big, concerned eyes.


    As Roxanne looked at the girl’s clear eyes, she recollected herself and hugged her.


    Her heart melted when her arms wrapped around the small and soft body. At the same time, she found


    herself letting go of the niggling question.


    The identity of Este’s biological mother and the current rtionship between Lucian and Aubree had


    nothing to do with her at all.


    She and Lucian should have been strangers. They were only interacting because of Este. That was


    all.


    Overthinking things would only make her feel even more frustrated.
