Chapter 627

When Lucian heard Estella mention Aubree, his gaze darkened. No wonder Roxanne still wouldn’t accept me! Even Essie knows about the entanglement I have with Aubree. Surely, Roxanne is still bothered by it. No matter what, I must pick up my pace and get Mom to forget about Aubree.

Lucian pulled himself out of his reverie and asked in a deep voice, “Do you like Ms. Pearson?”

Estella shook her head vigorously. Why on. earth would I like that evil woman? She’s only nice to me when Daddy is present. Whenever he wasn’t around, she would pinch my arms and spank me!

Lucian nodded and made a promise to Estella. “I won’t marry someone you don’t like.”

Estella’s eyes lit up once again.

“But if you want Ms. Jarvis to be your mommy, I’m going to need your help, Essie.” Lucian shot Estella a meaningful look. Perplexed, Estella tilted her head. Daddy is already sa catable. Why does he need my help?

Seeing that Estella was confused, Lucian helplessly patted her head and explained, “There’s some misunderstanding between Ms. Jarvis and me. Essie, help me clear up the misunderstanding.. okay?”

Knowing that she could make Roxanne her mother, Estella agreed to his suggestion at once. “Okay!”

After that, Estella looked at Lucian in confusion. “But what do I need to do to help?”

Lucian wasn’t surprised by Estella’s willingness to help. He took out the concert tickets and put them on the table.

Estella stared at the tickets curiously. “What are these?”

“Concert tickets. Help me give these to Archie and Benny, okay? Get them to pass the tickets to Ms.

Jarvis so that we can go to the concert together.”

Since those were VIP tickets, they could bring their kids along, Estella was still baffled. “Why are we going to a concert?”

Lucian was amused by Estella’s innocence. He pinched her nose playfully and said, “You’re still little, so you wouldn’t know. Just do as I say, okay? Trust me. I’ll marry Ms. Jarvis and make her your mommy.”

Estella nodded obediently when she heard that. “Okay! I’ll definitely do as you say, Daddy!”

Although Estella didn’t know what Lucian was up to, she knew she could trust him. If Daddy says this will work, I’ll listen to him! I want Ms. Jarvis to be my mommy! That way, I can see her, Archie, and Benny every day!

Lucian patted her head and put the tickets into her school bag. “It’s getting late. Go to bed, okay?”

Having been told of the possibility of having Roxanne as her mother, Estella brightened up. She picked up her pencil happily and said, “I’ll go to bed later!”

With that, she sprawled on the table and started drawing again. Lucian raised his brows and sat next to her quietly. What is she going to draw now?

Estella drew two adults holding hands, and there were three kids standing next to them. At a glance, one could definitely tell who the people in the drawing were.

“That’s you, Daddy! Then, there’s me, Ms. Jarvis, Archie, and Benny!” Estella held up the drawing proudly. “We’re a family!”

Right then, Lucian couldn’t help but recall that Estella had drawn something similar before. That time, I wasn’t holding Roxanne’s hand in the drawing. This time, we’ve indeed become a family. Lucian’s lips curled into a smile when he noticed the difference in the drawings.
