Estella was going to say something else, but Roxanne interrupted her, “It's late. We have to get up early tomorrow. Let's hurry up and wash up and go to bed.”
It was obvious that Roxanne didn't want to continue with the topic.
Estella's eyes turned dark, but she listened to Roxanne obediently and said nothing else.
She slept with Roxanne. As she rarely had the chance to sleep with Roxanne, she slept soundly that night.
Roxanne, however, couldn't help but recall Estella's innocent question.
What did Lucian do wrong?
There was only one answer that she could think of to that question. Other than the fact that he didn't like her, he didn't seem to have done anything else to hurt her.
However, that alone was enough to make Roxanne keep a distance from him.
Besides, Sonya and Aubree had also been keeping an eye on her.
Roxanne did not sleep well that night as thoughts flooded her mind, and she woke up very early the next day.
Meanwhile, Estella was still snuggled next to Roxanne, sleeping soundly.
Roxanne's gaze softened and her heart ached as she looked at Estella by her side.
She didn’t know why Estella was so dependent on her right after their first meeting.
At one point, she felt as if she had done something wrong to Estella because she couldn't be hard on Estella no matter what.
“Ms. Jarvis.” Just as Roxanne was lost in her thoughts, Estella woke up in a daze.
Roxanne returned to her senses and stretched out her hand to touch Estella's tiny little face. “You're awake."
Estella nodded in response, struggling to open her sleepy eyes.
