Ex-Wife Don't Leave, Love Is Coming Again! novel Chapter 9

Twenty minutes later, the car slowly stopped at the Farwell residence.

Estella did not want anyone to carry her. She quietly got down from the car by climbing down slowly.

Lucian followed right behind and did not utter a word.

The moment the father and daughter stepped into the house, they heard someone calling Estella.

“Essie!” Aubree, who was playing on her phone in the living room, exclaimed when she lifted her head and saw them entering the house.

The moment she saw the child from a distance, she ran toward her and gave her a hug. “Essie, you're finally home! How could you run away and not tell us? I got the shock of my life when you went missing, do you know that?

Are you okay? Are you injured?”

She started inspecting Estella's body to make sure the latter was all right.

Estella froze for a bit, as she was taken aback by Aubree's actions.

But the cold look soon returned to the little one's gaze when Aubree's voice kept ringing in her ear, expressing her insincere concern.

Does she not know why I ran away? I wouldn't have run away if she hadn't told me Daddy wouldn't care about me anymore.

Feeling disgusted after seeing the hypocrite's face, Estella recalled the gorgeous woman she had met today.

There was a world of difference between these two women.

Estella absolutely despised Aubree's pretentious behavior.

She started struggling and pulled herself away from the woman.

“What's wrong, Essie? Stay still, okay? Let me check if you're all right.”

Aubree could feel Estella wanted to avoid her. She tightened her grip on the little girl and sighed helplessly in front of Lucian.

Estella started reacting more aggressively, as she was in pain.

Aubree was running out of patience.

When she punished Estella in the past, the little girl would tremble in fear and not make any noises.

This was the first time she fought back!
