Leaving The Country After Divorce

Chapter 820 Console Essie

For a moment, Roxanne did not know how to respond to Estella’s declaration of love. I mean, I like Essie too, but I have never entertained the thoughts of becoming her mother.

After all, she has her own biological mother. If anything, children would probably prefer their biological parents more…

A good example will be Archie and Benny. Although they don’t know the truth of their births yet, their attitude toward Lucian is clearly different from the rest.

“You can’t?” Having received no answer from Roxanne, Estella lowered her eyes in disappointment and despair.

Roxanne’s heart ached when she saw the girl’s disappointment, but there was nothing she could do besides giving her a merciless rejection. Patiently, she explained to the girl, “Essie, you’ll have your own mommy, and once you have your mommy, you’ll find out that liking mommy and liking me don’t feel the same.”

Estella tightened her fists stubbornly and looked at Roxanne with tearful eyes. “I only like Ms. Jarvis!”

“You won’t—” Roxanne said in resignation when she saw Estella’s tears.
