    Chapter 1793 Can You Afford The Compensation


    After getting ashore, Lucian and Roxanne hurried to Este to check on her condition.


    Este had sipped some water and gradually began to calm down. “Daddy, Mommy, I''m fine! When | fell into the pool, the baby


    dolphin also jumped in after me. | saw that. I''m sure it was trying to save me!”


    Lucian and Roxanne could barely hide their surprise to hear that. She''s practically friends with that baby dolphin!


    Due to the urgency of the situation, they hadn''t seen that with their own eyes. They also knew they couldn''t rely on others to


    save their daughter.


    “Did you choke and swallow the pool water?” Roxanne asked.


    Este furrowed her brows before nodding. “I think | drank two mouthfuls of the water. | feel a bit ufortable. Will | have a


    tummy acheter?”


    Roxanne gave her head a reassuring pat. “No, of course not. I''m a doctor, so trust me. You''ll just have to take a few pills to kill


    the bacteria, that''s all.”N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner.


    Archie and Benny hung their heads, ready to be reprimanded for their actions.


    “Daddy, Mommy, we''re sorry for failing to protect Essie!”


    Lucian got to his knees and hugged them. “No, that wasn''t your fault. It was a sudden situation, and you did a good job pinning


    that boy down. Had you not been able to do that, he would''ve pushed you both, too. If that were to happen, we wouldn''t be able


    to save you all.”


    Roxanne felt bad for them and quicklyforted them, “That''s right. Archie, Benny, you did nothing wrong. Even if you jumped


    into the water, you wouldn''t be able to save Essie. Saving her is our responsibility as adults. We won''t me you for this.”


    The keepers and visitors gathered to inquire about their well-being.


    Lucian and Roxanne felt a surge of anger when they recalled who the culprit was.


    “Where is the plump kid?” Roxanne demanded. It was the first time in her life that she had ever despised a child this much.


    Lucian''s expression was as dark as thunder. “What a ruthless boy! How could he put someone else''s life at stake?”


    The overweight man and his son were currently surrounded by an angry crowd, who hurled insults and curses at them.


    As Lucian and Roxanne approached, the crowd parted.


    Roxanne immediately discovered that the boy wasn''t repentant at all as there was a smug look in his gaze.


    Nevertheless, she also noticed that his nose was bleeding.


    “Daddy, Mommy, Benny and | hit him,” Archie admitted.


    To his surprise, Lucian praised him. “Good job! Someone like him deserves to be punished. You did the right thing by hitting him.


    It''s fine.”


    The overweight man had no idea his son would cause trouble for him. When he saw Roxanne and Lucian approaching him, he


    apologized readily. “It waspletely my son''s fault, and I''m sorry for that. Please, let me make it up to you in any way | can. I''m


    willing topensate you with any amount you deem necessary.”


    Before he could add more, Lucian delivered a vicious kick to the man, sending him tumbling to the ground.


    “Compensate? Can you afford topensate us?” Lucian''s gaze sent a chill down the man''s spine.


    Roxanne''s face hardened as she gritted her teeth and spoke in a toneced with frost. “Look how smug your son is. It''s a


    wonder how you were able to raise such aplete piece of trash.”


    She couldn''t control her feelings as it was her first time seeing such an evil kid.


    If they weren''t in public, she would''ve given the boy two forceful ps without hesitation.
