    Chapter 1070 Do Not Do Anything Bad


    “It’s our fault, Mommy. We didn’t keep a close eye on Essie.” The boys had already guessed the truth


    when their mother questioned them. Even though Este had admitted to the offense, they still wanted


    to take the me for her mistake. Roxanne did not know what to say as she watched the three of them


    protect each other.


    I would’ve been contended to see them caring for each other in another situation, but they’re covering


    for each other at the wrong time now. What do I do… Momentster, she suppressed her emotions and


    ced Este on her thighs. “Tell me the truth, Essie. Did you do this by yourself or with the boys?”


    As Este had learned that Roxanne disliked dishonest children, she, of course, wasn’t going to lie.


    Besides, she never wanted to drag the brothers down with her either.


    “I-I did it by myself…” she choked out. Roxanne nodded and wiped the girl’s tears away. “Why did you


    do it?” Even though the girl was crying intensely, she still answered the question, “Because I don’t like


    Mr. Damaris.”


    It was the justification Roxanne expected but didn’t want to hear.


    “When Mr. Damaris gifted you flowers, you epted it. But when Daddy did it, you tried to return it to


    him. Also, you always argue with Daddy and rarely smile at him. Yet, you keep smiling at Mr.


    Damaris…” Este listed everything she despised about Jack.


    The more Roxanne listened to the girl, the lower her heart sank. I have no clue Essie is capable of


    such fierce jealousy at a young age, and it’s all because she’s very attached to me…


    Este tugged at Roxanne’s shirt pitifully and added, “I only want you to be with Daddy and be my


    mommy! Please don’t hate me, Ms. Jarvis!”


    Feeling a little dumbstruck, Roxanne patted the girl’s head. She’s too attached to me.


    “It’s our fault, Mommy! If we hadn’t spoken badly about Mr. Damaris, Essie wouldn’t have had a


    prejudice against him!” Archie and Benny pleaded on Este’s behalf.


    Roxanne sighed. “You two did do something wrong, but this has nothing to do with either of you.” The


    brothers knitted their eyebrows and stared at their mother. They didn’t want Este to be punished.


    Roxanne turned to look at Este, whose face was wet with tears. “I know what you’re thinking, but this


    isn’t right. No matter how much you like or dislike someone, you can’t touch their stuff just because you


    want to. Destroying other people’s property is even worse. Do you understand?”


    Este hupped and nodded obediently.


    Then Roxanne turned to the boys. “As for you two…”


    Archie and Benny straightened up.


    “I know you care for Essie, but you can’t always cover for her. You must set good examples for her to


    follow. Don’t do anything bad, and don’t speak ill of others behind their backs,” Roxanne advised.


    The brothers bobbed their heads and said, “We know what we did wrong now. It won’t happen again!”

    Roxanne nodded and removed Este from her embrace. “Now that you three know your mistakes, it’s


    time to ept your punishments.”
