    Chapter 1055 Rude


    Sonya turned her attention to Este, who was hiding behind Roxanne. “Essie,e on. I’ll bring you


    home.” Este had a firm grip on the edge of Roxanne’s clothing. When she heard Sonya’s words, she


    recoiled in fear.


    I’ve just met Ms. Jarvis, so I don’t want to go home yet. Besides, Grandma looks really scary. I just


    didn’t want to attend the new kindergarten, that’s all, but she wants to discipline me like the cruel Ms.


    Pearson!


    Este was overwhelmed by fear as she remembered Sonya’s expression from that day.


    Sonya realized that Este was frightened of her, so she apologized softly, “I’m here to apologize,


    Essie. I must have scared you that day, haven’t I? I promise it won’t happen again. You’re my precious


    princess, Essie.”


    She reached out and tried to pry away Este’s hand that was gripping Roxanne’s clothes. It was


    frustrating to see her granddaughter preferring another woman over her.


    At once, Archie and Benny dashed forward to stand in front of Roxanne and protect Este. This time,


    they wouldn’t let Sonya bring Este away no matter what.


    “Won’t you control your kids?” Sonya shot an irritated re at Roxanne. “They first sneaked Essie out


    of the Farwell residence, and now they are trying to prevent me from bringing her back. Why? Do they


    consider Essie to be their real sister?”


    Conflicting emotions welled up in the boys’ hearts when they heard that. We don’t know who Essie’s


    mommy is, but we are indeed her half-siblings.


    With that thought in mind, they grew increasingly determined to protect her.


    Roxanne was also reminded of the kids’ rtionship, but she didn’t know how to reply to Sonya.


    As Roxanne remained silent, Sonya took a step forward and attempted to push the boys out of her


    way.


    Instinctively, Roxanne reached out to protect her children by gripping Sonya’s wrist.


    Both women were at a standstill for a moment before Sonya withdrew her hand with a scowl. She


    stated coldly, “Like mother, like son. It’s no wonder they are so mischievous, given that you are their


    mother.”


    Roxanne believed that she had raised both boys well, so she felt a stab of anger upon hearing Sonya’s


    criticism.


    “Mrs. Farwell, you can criticize me all you like, but isn’t it rude of you to vent your anger on the kids?”

    Sonya valued her pride the most, and Roxanne’s words had hit her sore spot. “What did you just say?”


    she shrieked.


    Unfazed, Roxanne said, “You im to feel sorry for Essie, but have you ever considered why Essie is


    afraid of you if you truly love her? It’s because your supposed love is just fulfilling your own ego!”


    Sonya was practically quivering in rage. She looked at her granddaughter, wanting to refute Roxanne’s


    statement with facts.


    However, Este merely cowered behind Roxanne silently. Her behavior seemed to verify Roxanne’s


    statement instead of supporting Sonya.


    “I already told youst time that Essie can’t handle stress, but you kept forcing her to act against her


    wishes. I doubt that you love her,” Roxanne stated firmly.


    She piled on the pressure, not giving Sonya any room to maneuver.


    Sonya flew into a fit of anger. “You know nothing! Who are you to question me? Essie is a Farwell, so


    it’s up to us to decide how we want to raise her. That has nothing to do with you!”
