Initially, Estella only hid behind Catalina, but after she heard what Aubree said about being her future mother, her expression instantly changed. She glared at Aubree angrily before running upstairs by herself.
Aubree's face fell as she watched the girl leave.
Catalina breathed an inward sigh of relief when she saw Estella running away. “Ms. Estella's emotions are often unstable. I hope you'll forgive her, Ms. Pearson.”
In response, Aubree flashed her a forceful smile.
Amidst her frustration, she heard sounds at the mansion's entrance. Subsequently, she saw Lucian stepping back into the building.
“Has Mrs. Farwell left already, Lucian?” Aubree made swift adjustments to her expression before staring at the person at the entrance pitifully.
After shooting a glance at her, Lucian nodded indifferently and turned to Catalina. “Where's Essie?”
He asked Catalina to take care of Estella before he went out, which was why he was wondering where his daughter had gone to.
Catalina subconsciously glanced at Aubree before informing, “Ms. Estella... went back to her room.”
The man furrowed his brows. What did Aubree do to Essie again?
“Since Mrs. Farwell has already left, should I...” Aubree intentionally shot a piteous look at Lucian, wanting to ask if she should stay or go.
Instead of looking at her, he relayed an order to Catalina. “Arrange a guest room for Ms. Pearson.”
Catalina was briefly shocked as she didn't expect Lucian to allow Aubree to stay. Still, she complied with his order.
She was aware of Estella's and Lucian's attitudes toward Aubree, so she prepared a room that was furthest from their bedrooms for Aubree to stay in.
When Aubree heard that she could stay, joy leaped into her heart as she promised, “I promise to not cause any trouble!”
