Estella, who had yet to calm down, almost burst into tears at the sight of Sonya.
Seeing that, Roxanne quickly hugged Estella tightly. She then stood up to look at Sonya. “Mrs. Farwell, please don't agitate her. Essie's still emotionally unstable.”
At the same time, Lucian walked over with a frown.
He thought his mother had finally gotten a clear view of the situation after witnessing the way she had treated Aubree earlier.
To his surprise, Sonya had gone looking for Roxanne for trouble after chasing Aubree away.
“I'm just worried about my granddaughter. How is this agitating her emotions?”
It had been an emotional day for Sonya. She failed to keep her emotions in check, which made her sound displeased when she uttered those words.
When she finished saying that, she reached out to pull Estella out of Roxanne's arms. “Come here, Essie. Let me see if there are any injuries on your body.”
Panicking, Estella crawled up Roxanne's shoulders. “Ahh! I want Mommy! I don't want Grandma! No!”
Unfortunately, the way Estella addressed Roxanne only made Sonya scowl more. “Don't simply address her that way! She's not your mommy!”
Estella only continued crying, oblivious to the words Sonya was yelling.
Lucian, on the other hand, heard everything clearly.
He stood beside Roxanne and the children with a hostile expression. “Mom, what are you trying to do to Essie when she's already in such a state? Are Aubree's words not enough to make you reflect on yourself?”
Sonya was taken aback by her son's words. A long moment passed before she said awkwardly, “I'm just worried about Essie.”
Rubbing his temples, Lucian suppressed his anger and said, “Do you really? If you really cared about her, why would you keep pushing her to Aubree?”
