Chapter 344 Melted Heart

After lunch, Archie and Benny wanted to play with Estella, but Roxanne promptly stopped them. “The two of you can play on your own. I’m going to send Essie back.”

She had wanted to make things clear to Estella but realized she couldn’t bear to utter such harsh words, especially since the little girl had just bawled her eyes out. Thus, her only option was to send the kid back first.

Despite Archie and Benny’s reluctance to part with Estella, they still nodded obediently at their mother.

However, now that Estella couldn’t play with them, the two boys lost all interest and stood silently beside her and their mother.

Estella, on the other hand, was miffed by Roxanne’s words. When she felt the latter’s gaze on her, she pouted and looked away, refusing to say anything else.

Seeing how averse the little girl was to her, Roxanne’s heart ached.
