Ex-Wife Don't Leave, Love Is Coming Again! novel Chapter 51

The next day was a weekend, so the kids didn't have to go to kindergarten.

Roxanne planned to take the boys to the research institute with her.

Right after she packed everything and was about to head out the door, she heard the doorbell ring.

Thinking it was a visit from Madilyn, Roxanne got up and went to get the door.

Her brows furrowed with confusion when she saw the person standing at the door. “Essie? What are you doing here?”

Roxanne instinctively swept her gaze at the surrounding, thinking Lucian would be standing and waiting somewhere within sight.

Yet, shockingly, she didn't see anyone else but Estella outside her door.

Roxanne decided to focus her attention back on Estella. She bent down to the little girl's eye level and asked, “Estella, tell me how you got here? Did your daddy send you?”

Judging from Lucian's attitude at the kindergarten yesterday, I highly doubt he'll let Essie meet me, but there's no other possibility for now.

Estella was wearing a white dress and carried a small backpack on her back. It was the one she brought to kindergarten the day before. Hearing Roxanne's question, Estella reached for the notebook in her backpack, flipped it open, then started writing something.

She wrote: I came here myself.

Roxanne was stunned. “Yourself? How

did you find your way here?”

Estella scribbled across the page: I took a cab here.

Roxanne was still suspicious, but after checking her surroundings a few times, she finally believed Estella's words.

So Lucian's daughter took the cab in the early morning all by herself to my house. This situation is giving me a headache.

She suppressed the mix of feelings in her heart and asked tenderly, "Is there a reason you're looking for me?”

The girl answered in writing: I wanted to be friends with Archie and Benny, so I came to play with them. Is that okay? Estella raised her notebook and gazed at Roxanne with anticipation.

Just for this reason?
