Ex-Wife Don't Leave, Love Is Coming Again! novel Chapter 555

Estella remained in Roxanne's arms for a while. When she was finally awake, she pulled herself from Roxanne's embrace and looked up.

Estella frowned when she noticed that Roxanne looked pale. “Ms. Jarvis, are you okay? You don't look so good.”

Roxanne touched her face surprisedly, wondering what the girl spotted.

As she had not looked at herself in the mirror since she woke up, she had no idea how bad she looked at that moment.

Ah, I drank a lot yesterday, and I even slept late. There's no way I look refreshed after so little sleep.

Before Roxanne could reply, the girl wrinkled her nose and sniffed the air. “Why do I smell alcohol?”

Roxanne smiled at her. “I went down to have some wine yesterday because I couldn't sleep. That's probably why I look tired. I'm actually having a slight headache too.”

Upon hearing this, Estella reached out and touched her forehead carefully. The smile on Roxanne's face grew wider when she saw how much the child cared for her.

After some time, Estella slowly retracted her hand and glanced at the water and medication on the nightstand. Although she had no idea what those were for, she passed them to Roxanne nonetheless.

An inexplicable feeling rose in Roxanne's heart when she saw that glass of water. It reminded her of what she had said to Lucian the night before.

Seeing that Roxanne did not take the water from her, Estella held it out closer to her. But the woman pushed it away because she did not feel like having it.

Her rejection confused the girl, who then tilted her head.

“It's cold. I'd like some warm water. Besides, I don't need that medication anymore,” Roxanne said, forcing a smile.
