Chapter 1053 Heart Softened
Mere moments after Catalina hung up, Sonya arrived at the Farwell residence. “Mrs. Farwell.” Both Lucian and Estella weren’t around, so she didn’t know how to deal with
Sonya.
Sonya gave a curt nod and glanced around the living room. “Where is Essie?” Catalina was at a loss for words. She could tell Lucian that the boys had taken Estella away, but
she was too afraid to tell Sonya the truth.
After all, she knew that Sonya disliked Roxanne. “Uh, Ms. Estella…” Catalina hesitated. Sonya grew impatient. “Where is she? Is she upstairs? I’ll go take a look myself.”
With that, she strode upstairs. Catalina dared not stay anything and could only watch as Sonya headed upstairs to Estella’s room. A while later, Sonya stormed downstairs
wearing an unhappy scowl.
“I thought Essie is supposed to be homeschooled. Why isn’t she around on a weekend?” she demanded. Giving Catalina a dubious look, she asked, “Did Lucian take her out?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe pulled out her phone to call Lucian. Knowing it was impossible to hide the truth, Catalina revealed honestly, “Archie and Benny came earlier. I think… Ms. Estella left with
them.”

Sonya’s expression turned as dark as thunder. “Who told you to let them in?”
I didn’t tell Lucian to bring Essie back so she could meet the boys! It’s pretty obvious where they would take her.
Sonya’s voice was shrill and demanding.
When Catalina heard Sonya’s question, she was filled with guilt since she had let the boys in secretly. She hung her head in shame silently.

Sonya glared at her. “I can’t believe you failed to take care of her!”
With that, she stormed out of the manor.
I brought her back the first time, so I can do it again!
After witnessing Sonya’s departure from the manor, Catalina hesitated briefly before dialing Lucian’s number once again.
Back in Farwell Group’s CEO’s office, Cayden was still reporting the work progress to Lucian. It was his first time seeing Lucian answering so many calls at work.
“Mrs. Farwell came earlier. She learned that Ms. Estella was taken away and might be…” Catalina trailed off helplessly.
Lucian’s brows furrowed. “Got it.”
He ended the call and told Cayden, “Send the rest to my email.”
Before Cayden could react, he noticed Lucian rising to his feet and hurrying toward the elevator.
Lucian’s expression was grim as he exited the elevator and got into his car. He then proceeded to drive to Roxanne’s house.
Previously, Estella couldn’t stop wailing when his mother forcibly dragged her out of Roxanne’s house.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe was worried that if Estella experienced another traumatic event, she would regress back to her old self.
She might even completely isolate herself from the outside world.
Lucian’s expression darkened when the thought of that possibility crossed his mind. He stepped on the gas pedal.
At the same time, the kids’ car rolled to a stop outside the mansion.
It had been a while since Estella had seen Roxanne, so the little girl was a bit anxious. She trailed behind the boys, wondering if Roxanne would still like her.
The boys had no idea what was on her mind and dragged her into the mansion.
Roxanne had just arrived home after working overtime.
She was about to head upstairs to see Archie and Benny. Right then, the mansion’s door creaked open, and in walked the three kids, holding hands.
Roxanne thought she was hallucinating when she saw Estella at her house.
“Ms. Jarvis…” Estella greeted softly. Nevertheless, the little girl was too afraid to approach her.
Roxanne snapped out of her reverie. The sight of Estella’s shy demeanor made her heart soften.
