NovelEnglishChapter 1063 Make Them Reconcile The brothers played with Estella until very late into the night because she would be leaving the next day. It was only when Roxanne went to the boys’ bedroom to call for Estella that she reluctantly left.
Roxanne wondered what the children talked about when she noticed how spirited Estella appeared upon returning to her bedroom. “Ms. Jarvis,” Estella called out in her piping voice abruptly while Roxanne was helping her take a bath.
Roxanne stopped what she was doing and looked at Estella in confusion. The girl stared at her with wide eyes and asked, “Can you really not be my mommy, Ms. Jarvis?” Earlier, while she was still crying, she had already asked that question, and Roxanne had already answered no. Roxanne was surprised the girl would ask that again.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfraid that her answer would cause Estella to cry once more, she contemplated the words she should use.
Estella, however, seemed to have known Roxanne’s answer. She lowered her eyes and said aggrievedly, “I know you don't like Daddy because he keeps angering you, Ms. Jarvis, and I'm Daddy’s daughter. You will definitely not want to become my mommy.” “That's not what | meant. It’s just that... your daddy is already engaged to someone, so he has to marry that person in the future.” The girl's eyes lit up. “This means you actually like Daddy!” Hearing that rendered Roxanne speechless for a few moments. The children always have a false dichotomous perspective on everything. Just because | denied the claim that | disliked Lucian, she thought | actually liked him, and | couldn't be with him solely because of Aubree. If | rebut her again, it'll be the same as admitting | dislike Lucian and, consequently, her as well.
At that moment, she had no idea how to explain the situation properly to the girl.
Estella scrutinized Roxanne’s expression.
When she saw the troubled look on the woman's face, a sly glint flashed past her eyes. She recalled the plan she had devised with the boys.
Ms. Jarvis and Daddy had a heated argument that they still haven't gotten over. We need to come up with a plan to make them reconcile quickly! “It's Daddy’s fault for pissing you off, Ms. Jarvis. I'll teach Daddy a lesson on your behalf!” Roxanne had no rebuttals to offer. It's like she’s implying Lucian and | are already a thing.
“Essie...” She changed the topic resignedly. “It's getting late. Let's hurry so you can rest early.” Estella beamed, although it was difficult to tell if it was because she had fun talking about the matter or because Roxanne did not deny her conclusion.
In response to Roxanne’s words, the girl nodded obediently.

“I want to listen to Sleeping Beauty, Ms. Jarvis!” Proactively, Estella crawled up to the bed and stared at the woman with anticipation, as if stars were hiding in her eyes.
Sleeping Beauty... Roxanne’s mind was thrown into further chaos as she inadvertently recalled the play from before.
However, she couldn't bear to reject the girl's request when she saw how excited the latter was.
As she narrated the fairy tale, the events that took place during the play repeated in her mind like a movie.
When she reached the kissing scene, she found it hard to continue the story.
Thankfully, the girl had already fallen asleep.
After releasing a sigh of relief, Roxanne lay beside Estella with a complicated feeling.
