Mission To Remarry Novel Chapter 1049 – Lesser Interactions
Estella silently sobbed the entire ride back to the Farwell main residence. Meanwhile, Sonya managed to calm herself down.
Her heart ached when she saw Estella crying her eyes out. “I wasn’t really angry with you. I was just scaring you. Don’t cry.”
Naturally, Estella was unconvinced. She pursed her lips as fat tears continued to roll down her cheeks.
Sonya had no choice but to try and coax her. However, not only did it not help, Estella’s eyes were now swollen from how much she had cried.
As Lucian was worried about Estella, he came over to check on her after finishing work for the day. “Why is she crying so much?”
He frowned when he saw how swollen Estella’s eyes were. Sonya couldn’t help but feel guilty. “It’s because she’s not used to the new environment yet.
After all, it’s only been a day. She’ll be fine after a while.” Hearing that, Lucian glanced at Estella suspiciously.
I was the one who sent Essie to kindergarten back then. Because of her autism, she does not know what the outside world is like.
Even if she finds herself in an unfamiliar environment, she will hide away in a corner to avoid any interaction. When did she ever cry this hard?
However, as Estella refused to speak, there was no way for Lucian to discover the truth. “Since she isn’t used to it, she doesn’t have to go anymore.
I’ll take her home and find a tutor to homeschool her.” With that, he held out a hand to Estella.
Although Estella was still angry with him, her dislike for Sonya was currently even stronger. She immediately hugged her daddy’s arm, tears streaming down her face.
When Lucian saw her reaction, he knew that his conjecture was right. My mother must have made her cry somehow.
Regardless, Sonya stubbornly refused to admit it. “Essie had been recovering well before, but Roxanne had to ruin it! If it weren’t for her,
Essie’s condition wouldn’t keep relapsing.” She only knew Estella was now able to speak and was unaware that it was all thanks to Roxanne,
Archie, and Benny. Meanwhile, Lucian was fully aware of it. If it were not for her, Estella would probably still refuse to speak.
When he heard Sonya’s words, he frowned deeply and retorted, “You said yourself that it was because of a change in environment.
It has been a long time since Essie has had any contact with them, so what does this have to do with them?” Sonya instantly got upset. “
Are you taking her side?” Lucian had already recomposed himself and looked at her with a casual expression. “I was just telling the truth.”
Then, he directed his attention to Estella, who was lying in his arms. After getting away from Sonya, Estella slowly stopped sobbing and relaxed leisurely against her father’s shoulder.
“I gave it some thought and concluded that it won’t be beneficial for Essie to stay at the Farwell main residence in her current condition.
You and Dad don’t have any experience in taking care of her. I’d be a lot more at ease if I did it myself,” Lucian said in a low voice.
When Sonya heard that, her expression twisted, and she looked at him suspiciously. “What are you planning? Are you going to let Essie meet Roxanne
again?”
“No,” Lucian replied as a frown formed on his face. Since Roxanne had already given up, her interactions with Estella would become lesser.
He couldn’t allow Estella to continue relying on her. Nonetheless, Sonya didn’t really believe him and still insisted on making Estella stay. “
Yes, we don’t have experience, but we can hire a psychologist to look after her.” “James is the only psychologist Essie has been seeing and trusts.
He also has his own responsibilities to deal with,” Lucian retorted right away. In other words, he was turning down Sonya’s suggestions yet again.
Sonya still wanted to try and convince him, but Lucian had already turned away and left with Estella. “It’s getting late, so you should get some rest.
It’s time for Estella to go to sleep too.”
