Leaving The Country After Divorce

Chapter 979 Suspects

After comforting Estella, Lucian left the room. As he walked to his study, he contemplated the reaction of Sonya and Estella. Lucian furrowed his brows at that thought and pulled out his phone.

Essie was crying so badly when my mother brought her back. Something must have happened. What did my mother say to Roxanne? It’s not a good idea for me to ask Essie about it, as it might trigger her emotions again. I don’t want to see her cry.
