Chapter 754 Promise Me First
At the same time, Roxanne was spending time with the three children in her house. Since Estella headed inside, she
had been unhappy. No matter what Roxanne and the other two little ones said to her, the girl still seemed to be low-
spirited.
“Essie, can you tell me what’s bothering you?” Roxanne stopped playing games with the children and brought
Estella over to sit on the carpet.
Trailing behind them, Archie and Benny were worried as well. After hearing their mother’s question, the little boys
stared at Estella expectantly as they waited for her answer.
Estella pursed her lips and thought of Aubree, who was currently staying at her home, before looking at the

If Ms. Jarvis knows that Ms. Pearson lives in my house, Ms. Jarvis will definitely be upset. Daddy is still pursuing Ms.
Jarvis. It’d be bad if she misunderstands…
Estella’s expression was filled with hesitation as she considered the consequences.
Noticing that Estella seemed to have some concerns, Roxanne frowned worriedly. “No matter what it is, you can tell
me. I’ll surely help you.”
Archie and Benny, who were standing aside, echoed, “Count us in as well! All of us will help you! Essie, don’t be
sad.”
When Estella heard their words of consolation and thought of how badly Aubree treated her in the morning, she
was aggrieved.
Why did Daddy let Ms. Pearson live in the house instead of trying to get Ms. Jarvis, Archie, and Benny to move in? I
want to live with Ms. Jarvis, Archie, and Benny.
“Essie, if you don’t say anything, we’ll be worried sick.” Archie looked at Estella seriously, his tone somber.
Upon hearing his words, Estella frowned and glanced at Roxanne anxiously.
Cooperatively, Roxanne put on a troubled expression.
“Ms. Jarvis…” Seeing that Roxanne was concerned about her, Estella became anxious. Despite that, the girl was still
worried that Roxanne might misunderstand.
Estella’s hesitation caused Roxanne to steel herself and act hurt. The latter rose to her feet and said in a
disappointed tone, “Essie, since you’re not willing to talk about it, I won’t force you. I’ll prepare lunch for you all.”
With that, she took a step forward, ready to leave.
Just as she turned around, Estella grabbed her shirt.
“Ms. Jarvis, don’t go. I’ll tell you.” Estella spoke pitifully.

Archie and Benny.
Seeing that Roxanne’s plan had worked out, Archie and Benny were relieved. They then sat down solemnly as they
waited for Estella to pour her heart out.
When Estella saw Roxanne sitting back down beside her, the girl said gingerly, “Ms. Jarvis, you have to promise me
first that you won’t be angry with Daddy.”
Without knowing the context, Roxanne had no idea why Estella said that. The former couldn’t help but frown as she
wondered why Estella was upset.
She asked me not to get angry with Lucian. That means this has something to do with that man.
At the mention of Lucian, Roxanne inevitably thought of his attitude every time he spoke to Estella.
“Did your daddy scold you?” What Roxanne could think of was this possibility.
Estella shook her head vigorously.
Estella’s denial only served to make Roxanne even more puzzled.
Other than this reason, why else will I be angry? Essie even specifically asked me not to get angry. Judging from her
expression, it seems to be a grave matter…
