Ex-Wife Don't Leave, Love Is Coming Again! novel Chapter 1278

Lucian found it downright ironic that Sonya and Aubree both trusted yet doubted each other.

Since she wants a reason, I don't mind giving her one.

“Aubree isn't suitable to be Essie's mother. I've already given her six years and allowed her to take care of Essie recently. However, Essie is still unwilling to accept her. In fact, Essie's condition is showing signs of recurrence under her care. I won't risk Essie's well-being.”

Frowning deeply, Sonya dipped her head and directed her gaze at Aubree.

Indeed, she knew nothing about Estella's condition.

Before that day, she thought that Aubree and Essie were already getting along smashingly well.

She had never expected the reality to be such.

Even then, she would never accept Roxanne, who had abandoned Estella back then.

“Aubree merely needs some time. Give her more time. She'll be able to resolve it!” Sonya insisted stubbornly.

The impatience on Lucian's face grew even more blatant. “If I were to allow her to continue interacting with Essie, Essie's condition would only worsen.”

At that statement, a conflicted look entered Sonya's eyes, and her voice was no longer as firm as before. “How would you know without trying? Is she not better than Roxanne, who abandoned Essie?”

Verily, Lucian wasn't in the mood to argue with her further. “Indeed, she's not.”

After saying that, he spun on his heel to leave. Before doing so, he stated, “I've already made up my mind regarding the engagement. No matter what you say, it'll never change my decision. Next time, please disclose your reason for calling me over when you phone me. If it's about this, don't bother anymore.”

Never having expected him to leave like that, Sonya was enraged and tried stopping him. “Stop right there!”

Alas, Lucian's footsteps didn't falter in the slightest.
