Chapter 289


    Chapter 289 I Will Take You There


    Lucian was resolute. Aubree had no choice but to leave with her head hung low.


    Elias and Sonya stayed back for a while to spend time with Este.


    No matter how hard they tried, Este remained disinterested. The little girl refused to write any words


    even though Sonya gave her a pen and paper. She would only nod or shake her head at any questions


    they posed.


    Sonya felt bad for Este, as she knew the little girl was traumatized byst night’s events.


    The only thing she could do was to spend more time with Este.


    When night arrived, Sonya got to her feet reluctantly. “Should I bring Essie back so I can take care of


    her? You’re busy, and I’m afraid you can’t take care of her well.”


    Lucian rejected her offer outright. “No, thanks.”


    After what happenedst night, he refused to let Este go anywhere.


    As he refused to give in, Sonya said nothing else. She talked to Este briefly before leaving with her


    husband.


    After they left, Lucian redressed Este’s wound and led her upstairs so she could go to bed.


    Este stared at her wound silently and showed no response to his words.


    Frowning, Lucas asked, “Does your wound hurt?”


    Este lifted her head and shook her head.


    “What’s wrong? Tell me,” Lucian said patiently.


    Pursing her lips, Este pointed at the medicine on the table and took the pen to write “Ms. Jarvis” on


    the paper.


    Her action tugged at Lucian’s heartstrings. “Do you want to give the medicine to Ms. Jarvis?”


    Este bobbed her head firmly.

    The medicine in our house is efficient. Ms. Jarvis suffers from the same injury as mine, so she should


    be able to use the same medicine I just used! I miss her so much.


    Lucian nced at the time and ruffled her hair. “It’ste. Ms. Jarvis must be asleep. We’ll pay her a visit


    tomorrow, okay?”


    Este hesitated before nodding obediently.


    Ms. Jarvis must be tired, as she had to search for me. She needs to rest.


    Seeing that Este didn’t press on, Lucian heaved a sigh of relief and led her upstairs so she could go


    to bed.


    Lucian still remembered how afraid she was this morning. Thus, he decided to spend the night with her.


    He was exhausted from staying up all night and promptly fell asleep after coaxing Este to sleep.


    The next morning, Este woke him up by shaking his body repeatedly.


    Opening his eyes groggily, he saw that Este had already changed her outfit and was waiting for him


    to leave.


    It took him a while before he realized Este wanted to leave right away to give Roxanne the medicine.


    “Okay. I’ll take you there,” Lucian promised her solemnly.


    Climbing out of bed, he washed up and brought her downstairs.


    Downstairs, Este ran to the medical kit and found the medicine she had usedst night. She ced


    the medicine beside her when she was having breakfast so they could leave after breakfast.


    Lucian sighed when he saw her action.


    Perhaps this is their mother-and-daughter bond. They are both worried about each other. I’m worried


    about Roxanne, too. Those who had no idea what happened to her might think she was seriously


    wounded judging from Essie’s reaction.
