Chapter 99

Roxanne was indeed knackered. Usually, she was a light sleeper. However, she slept so soundly that night and didn’t even realize that she was being brought upstairs to the guest room.

Lucian came to a stop beside the bed and placed her down. He made sure her head was resting on the pillow before he got to his feet.

Behind them, Catalina’s grin widened when she saw how Lucian took care of Roxanne. She put Estella beside Roxanne and tucked them in before stepping back.

As Lucian was still gazing at Roxanne, she offered, “Mr. Farwell, why don’t you get some rest? I’ll keep them company. You have to head to the office tomorrow, right?”

Lucian shook his head. “No need for that. I’m not tired. Essie’s sick, so I’ll take care of her myself. You can get off work now.”

Catalina was amused. He’s worried about Ms. Estella? But his eyes are fixed on Ms. Jarvis! Hmm, it should be a good idea to leave them alone. They can spend some time together and hopefully grow closer as a family.

With that thought in mind, Catalina left the room quietly.
