Leaving The Country After Divorce

Chapter 113 Her Autism Was Triggered

Lucian watched in astonishment while his daughter chased after Roxanne’s car frantically.

She hasn’t even met Roxanne that many times, so why is she so attached to her?

While Lucian was mired in bafflement, the girl suddenly fell over, jolting him to his senses. He promptly hastened over to embrace her. “Are you okay? Let Daddy have a look at you.”

Estella refused to let go of the arms she had wrapped tightly around his neck, and while he worried about her plight, he heard the little girl break into a sob.

For a moment, Lucian thought his ears were playing tricks on him.

Even if she was merely crying, that was the very first time she had broken her silence growing up.

Estella bawled her heart out and clung to him so tightly that he really felt it around his neck. In spite of the emotional turmoil he was experiencing, he endured it quietly and directed his own attention toward comforting her instead.

“Ms. Jarvis… want Ms. Jarvis…”Estella’s abrupt and stuttering enunciations of these words took Lucian aback, as he had never expected those to be her first words.
