Chapter 751 Take Good Care Of Essie
During the drive to his office, Lucian cast a glance at his daughter through the rearview mirror and furrowed his
brows. “I’ll send you there,” Lucian said in a low voice.
Initially, he wanted to ask Cayden to send her over. However, judging by Estella’s current state, Lucian reckoned it
would be difficult for Cayden to deal with her later on.
He gave Cayden a call right after. It did not take long for Cayden to pick up the call. “Mr. Farwell, when will you
arrive?” Lucian frowned and said, “Postpone the meeting in the morning.”
Cayden was stumped. The meeting in the morning was important, and yet Lucian had ordered to postpone
it. “Postpone it by an hour will do,” Lucian added. “I’m going to drop Essie off.”
Cayden hurriedly agreed to make the arrangements. He had been working with Lucian for years, and he was

After hanging up the call, Lucian turned the car around and headed toward Roxanne’s place.
Following closely behind Lucian’s car was Aubree in a taxi. The fury burning in her chest was slightly appeased when
she noticed that Lucian was heading to his office. However, upon noticing that he made an abrupt U-turn, Aubree
stiffened in response.
Even though she had never been to Roxanne’s place, Aubree had a hunch that Lucian was heading toward the
woman’s place right then.
Aubree’s face fell when she was hit by the pang of realization. She ordered the driver in an icy tone, “Keep up with
that car!”
The driver nodded hastily and tailed behind Lucian as told.
As expected, his car slowly came to a stop in front of Roxanne’s place.
Lucian led Estella out of the car and rang the doorbell.
He was greeted soon after, perhaps because he had made a call prior to coming.
“Why is it you? Didn’t you say you will ask Cayden to drop Essie off?”
Roxanne was slightly surprised at the sight of Lucian, and she gave him a confounded look.
“I think it’s better for me to drop her off myself,” Lucian explained.
Roxanne was perplexed by his explanation and lowered her head to look at Estella. Only then did she notice
something off with the little girl.
Estella would always greet Roxanne whenever she met her. This time, however, the little girl merely kept quiet as
she stared at Roxanne piteously.
It would appear as if the girl had returned to her autistic self.
“Essie?” Roxanne’s heart constricted at the sight, worried that the little girl’s condition had relapsed.
Estella finally snapped out of her daze when she heard Roxanne. The little girl blinked her eyes in distress and
edged closer to Roxanne. “Ms. Jarvis…”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRoxanne heaved a sigh of relief and patted her head. She looked at Lucian and asked, “What’s the matter with
Essie?”
Lucian frowned. He did not know how to tell Roxanne the fact that Aubree had moved into the Farwell residence.
He remained silent for a few seconds before saying, “I guess she’ll tell you later.”
Roxanne was even more befuddled by his words.
Seeing as the man did not seem to wish to divulge further, she did not egg him on and merely nodded in response.
Archie and Benny were standing right behind Roxanne. They were worried to see the state that Estella was in as
well.
“I have a meeting later on. So, I’ll have to get going.” Lucian said in a low voice, “I’ll be leaving Essie to you now. I
will come and pick her up in the evening.”
Roxanne nodded in response.
However, when they met each other’s gaze, she seemed to notice that there was something odd about Lucian’s
demeanor.
