Ex-Wife Don't Leave, Love Is Coming Again! novel Chapter 1090

“No!”

Estella was livid to see her father going along with the mean lady. Furiously, she threw her fork away, jumped off her chair, and dashed up the stairs.

At the sight of the girl's tantrum, Aubree was enraged, but she had to keep up with her act.

“Essie!” she yelled, quickly putting down her fork and going to run after the girl.

Right as she stood up, Lucian stopped her. “Let her be.”

Aubree pretended to look troubled. “But Essie, she—”

Lucian was unfazed. “It's good for her to calm down by herself too. I spoiled her too much by letting her get anything she wanted in the past.”

On his journey back, Lucian had mulled over the matter of Estella destroying Jack's tire.

Even though he could understand why she had done that, those were actions that he could not just let go of since she was already getting better with her condition.

It was time for him to correct the way she expressed herself.

Roxanne's matter was an opportunity for him to do that.

Glee filled Aubree's mind, but she put on a look of guilt on her face. “This is all because of me. I know Essie doesn't like me, and I know I can't rush her into liking me, but I still insisted on staying for the meal. It's my fault Essie didn't get to eat her food properly.”

Lucian lifted his head to glance at her. “This has nothing to do with you. She has to face this fact eventually.” With that, he nonchalantly returned to his meal. “Let's continue eating.”

A trace of delight danced across Aubree's eyes when she heard him say that, and she sat back down in her seat.

After dinner, Aubree suggested with faked concern that she wanted to check on Estella upstairs.

Unsurprisingly, Lucian rejected her suggestion and told her that Estella needed to calm down first.
