Leaving The Country After Divorce

Chapter 835 What Are You Doing Here

Roxanne looked slightly troubled. I didn’t take a good look at his face back then, but he must be pretty annoyed about what happened this morning. But if I decide to call him and ask what time he’ll be coming to pick Essie up, it’s going to make me look guilty.

“If Daddy doesn’t come, can I sleep with you tonight, Ms. Jarvis?” Estella looked at Roxanne eagerly. Roxanne snapped back to reality and ran her fingers through the girl’s hair. “He’ll definitely come.”

As soon as her words fell, Estella’s eyes turned bleak. “But yes, if your daddy doesn’t come, you can sleep with me tonight,” Roxanne agreed with a smile.

Estella finally beamed upon hearing that. Roxanne glanced at the time. “I didn’t get to properly taste the cake we made this morning, so how about we make another one?” she proposed.
