Chapter 261


    Leaving The Country After Divorce chapter 261Chapter 261 The sudden ring of Lucian’s phone broke


    the silence of the room.Roxanne instinctively nced atthe phone screen when it lit up, only to quickly


    retract her gaze when she saw the caller ID.The phone had been ringing for quite a while before Lucian


    turned around to pick it up.Upon seeing the caller ID, he shot Roxanne a nce before answering the


    call by the window, “What is it?” Aubree could be heardiningon the other line.“I heard Essie’s


    kindergarten organized a tree-nting event.Did you attend it with her?” “Yeah,” Lucian replied


    coldly.Aubree’s expression was a little gloomy as she asked, “Essie dislikes crowded ces, doesn’t


    she? She has never attended events like these, so why would she attend this one?” Not wanting to


    waste his time arguing with her, Lucian said, “Essie wanted to attend it, so I brought her over.”


    Naturally, Lucian wasn’t about to exin why Este wanted to attend it.Aubree clenched her fists


    tightly and suppressed her rage as she pressed on, “Why didn’t you invite me? Essie is a girl, so it’d be


    inconvenientfor you to look after her.I could help out if I were there!” Lucian looked at Roxanne, who


    was ying with Este, and snapped back at Aubree impatiently, “Why would l?The school asked


    parents to attend it with their children.Who are you to attend it?” Aubree fell silent for a few seconds


    before replying awkwardly, “E- Everyone knows we’re getting married, right? Besides, I’ve looked after


    Essie for so manyyears—” “Anyway, I’ll be hanging up now,” Lucian cut her off.He then hung up the


    phone before Aubree could say anything.Roxanne was able to hear Lucian’s conversation with Aubree


    due to how silent the room was, and she felt conflicted when she heard whatAubree said.Although


    Lucian didn’t let Aubree finish, Roxanne knew what she was about to say.Aubree was probably going


    to tell him that she’d be Essie’s mother sooner orter.Since everyone knows about them getting


    married, no one would say anything about her attending the event as Essie’s parent.Feeling flustered


    at the thought of that, Roxanne patted Este on the head and said, “It’s gettingte, Essie.You need to


    wake up early to nt trees tomorrow, so you should go to bed now.” Este nodded obediently and


    climbed into bed.Roxanne then nodded at Lucian before tucking Archie and Benny in.Meanwhile, at the


    Pearson residence, Aubree was so stunned by Lucian’s response that she stared at the nk screen


    ofher phone for quite a while beforeingto her senses.Her face was filled with rage as she swept


    everything off the table in frustration.I deliberately asked him why he’d attend the event with Essie.He


    brushed my question off coldly just as I expected, but I know it’s because of that bitch! That event was


    meant to help parents bond with their children, soshe’d definitely attend it with her two little


    basterds.Lucian went all the way to Bellridge because of that bitch, so I wouldn’t be surprised if he


    attended thisevent because of her.There’s no telling what could happen if I let them spend any more


    time with each other! No, Ican’t just sit by and watch as that b*tch gets closer and closer to Lucian!


    Even if he rejects her in the end, I have to be there to witness it! The mere thought of what could


    happen between Lucian and Roxanne was driving Aubree crazy with rage.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!
