Remembering her task of bringing Estella to school tomorrow, Aubree set an alarm for six o'clock in the morning.
She felt extremely irritated when the alarm rang the next morning, disturbing her slumber.
Last night, she barely got any sleep as she couldn't stop thinking about Roxanne and Jack. She had only slept for three to four hours.
Raising her hand to turn off the alarm, she closed her eyes, wanting to go back to sleep.
But I still need to gain Lucian's favor...
After lazing around under the covers for a while, Aubree reluctantly climbed out of bed, suppressing her anger.
She then went downstairs after washing up.
Gina was leisurely watering the flowers downstairs and was surprised to see her daughter up so early. “Why are you up so early?”
Still grumpy from lack of sleep, Aubree's expression was grim. “I have to send Essie to school.”
Hearing that, Gina bobbed her head understandingly. “You should. You're suffering now in exchange for a bright and happy future after you marry Lucian. Hang in there.”
Aubree was, of course, aware of this. Otherwise, she wouldn't have woken up this early in the morning.
“Did you look into what I told you last night?” Gina turned to look at her daughter after she finished watering the flowers.
At the thought of that matter, Aubree nodded with furrowed brows. “Yes, I asked someone to investigate it, but I'm not sure what's the reason.”
She had been pondering about it all night long.
According to the information Cory had provided her, Roxanne's daily routine hardly changed during this period.
It won't make sense to say that Lucian gave up on Roxanne because of her relationship with Jack. Roxanne is already on friendly terms with Jack before she and Lucian had a fallout.
However, if that wasn't the case, Aubree couldn't think of another reason.
