Chapter 215


    Chapter 215  Roxanne did not know how to face Este due to her unpleasant encounters with Lucian.


    She would even avoid talking about Este whenever Archie and Benny brought her up. It did not take


    long for the two sensitive boys to notice Roxanne‘s strange attitude toward Este. Even though they


    were not avoiding Este in school, their attitude toward thetter had be colder.Este hardly


    spoke since she had just learned to talk. She would only speak a few words when others brought up a


    topic that she was interested in. Este‘s condition gradually returned to its original state when Archie


    and Benny did not take the initiative to talk to her. Furthermore, she had not seen Roxanne for a few


    days. Lucian was the only one who noticed the changes in Este. A few days ago, Lucian could still


    hear Este speak up asionally after bringing her home. Nevertheless, Este had been unwilling to


    talk for the past two days. Lucian was worried that Este might suffer a rpse. However, the only


    person who could improve Este‘s condition had made it clear that she wanted to keep her distance


    from Lucian. The man felt conflicted whenever he thought of Roxanne. After picking Este up from


    school in the evening, Lucian wanted to guide her into speaking by following James‘ method. “Essie,


    how are you doing in thest two days? Are you in a bad mood?” That kind of one–sided conversation


    had been going on for several days. Nevertheless, Este remained silent. Lucian thought it would be


    the same that day. Surprisingly, the moment he finished speaking, a sweet but pitiful voice sounded in


    the car. Pouting, Este said dejectedly, “I didn‘t see…” “What didn‘t you see?” Lucian probed, feeling


    confused. Este mumbled, “Ms. Jarvis.” Then, she carefully counted on her fingers before stretching


    out four fingers. “Four days.” I haven‘t seen Ms. Jarvis for four days. It was Ms. Lane who picked up


    Archie and Benny every day. Even though Ms. Lane was also kind to me, I still miss Ms. Jarvis dearly.


    Waves of emotions surged within Lucian, knowing fully well that Este could not see Roxanne


    because thetter was avoiding him on purpose. Nevertheless, he did not know how to exin the


    situation to Este. Lucian had not seen Roxanne since their argument when he sent her home from


    the bar that night. As Roxanne said, the two of us are merely strangers right now.  As that thought


    urred to him, Lucian felt an inexplicable sense of displeasure deep down. After a while, he slowly


    broke out of his reverie.Seeing how sullen Este was next to him, Lucian suddenly felt that somethingAll text ? N?velD(r)a''ma.Org.


    was amiss. Wait. Didn‘t she talk with me just now?  Realizing that, Lucian knitted his brows in


    amazement. As if nothing had happened, he tried to get Este to talk again. “Essie, what did you just


    say? I didn‘t hear it earlier. Can you repeat it for me?” Este simply kept her head low, revealing the


    round back of her head and her puffed cheeks. She turned a blind ear to his question. Despite theck


    of response, Lucian patiently patted Este‘s head before trying to guide her again. “You said Ms.


    Jarvis didn‘t pick up the boys from school.Then, who was the one who fetched them thesest two


    days?” As soon as he mentioned Roxanne, Este slowly raised her head to look at him. Lucian‘s heart


    raced. He was expecting Este to finally reply to him. Much to his surprise, Este merely nced at


    him before shaking her head silently. Then, she lowered her head again as if she refused to


    communicate with him.
