    Chapter 1076 Be Her Mother


    “No longer rted?” The sarcasm in Lucian’s eyes intensified. “This is all wishful thinking on your part.”


    Roxanne’s frown deepened. I’m stating the facts! Why is that wishful thinking? It was Lucian who used


    me all the while, and now he’s with Aubree. How are we rted to each other now?


    As though reading her mind, Lucian said icily, “You may be right, but do you think Essie will give up on


    you when you treat her this well?”


    Roxanne was left speechless.


    Lucian concluded, “You are responsible for giving her false hope, which led to hermitting that act,


    and you don’t even know that.”


    Hearing that, Roxanne couldn’t stop doubting herself.


    He’s right. I keep saying I want to sever ties with him, but when Essie cries, I can’t help but feel guilty


    and give in and shower my love on her. When she’s around, Lucian and I will inevitably have to


    interact. ording to Lucian, Essiemitted that act because of me…


    A whileter, Roxanne finally found her voice. “If that’s the case, I’ll do what you and Mrs. Farwell want.


    I won’t interfere in Essie’s matters anymore.”


    Lucian found her act of showing concern for Este to be insincere just a moment ago.


    But now, hearing her agree to give up on Este so easily, he couldn’t help but feel anger rising within


    him.


    Roxanne was sensitive enough to sense the change in his emotions.


    However, she couldn’t figure out why.


    Before she could ponder over the matter, Lucian suddenly loomed over her.


    Roxanne’s head snapped up warily. “What are you doing?”


    Right after she spoke, Lucian held her chin and forced her to meet his eyes.


    Their faces were so close to each other that she could feel his breath on her cheeks. In fact, they


    looked to be in an intimate position.


    Roxanne balled her fists. “Mr. Farwell, what are you doing? Let me go! I have agreed to do as you


    wish!”


    The more she spoke, the more enraged Lucian became, and the more forcefully he held her chin.


    Roxanne frowned in pain.


    “Do as I wish?” Lucian regarded her coldly. “You do things as you wish. Who do you think you are?”


    Shock shed across Roxanne’s eyes. She parted her lips but had no words to retort.


    Indeed, she had always had her way when it came to decisions concerning Este.


    Before she had the chance to piece together her thoughts to confirm that it was all Este’s idea,


    Lucian suggested, “Ms. Jarvis, if you’re so keen on getting involved in Essie’s affairs, why don’t you


    take it a step further and be her mother?”


    His face inched nearer to her once he said that.


    Roxanne’s eyes turned as wide as saucers. Before she could speak, the man covered her lips with his.


    “Mm!” She struggled to free herself.


    The children are downstairs and cane up any minute. What if they see us kissing? Lucian is


    clearly together with Aubree. What is he doing right now?Owned by N?velDrama.Org.
