was certain of his feelings for Roxanne after the poisoning incident.That was the reason he felt the need to draw the line with Aubree.However, Aubree doubted the truth in his words.Given how important I am to Sonya, I’m sure she would invite me over if Essie was by her side. After all, it’s a great opportunity for me to bond with the little girl. Since that didn’t happen, I’m not buying Lucian’s story.Coming to that conclusion, Aubree felt her heart sink.

Given Roxanne’s critical condition, the poison in her body would still take time to dissipate even after she woke up.

Ever since I told him that I was trying to kill Roxanne, he stopped contacting me. If I hadn’t asked him about it, he would probably not have told me!”Unsettled by the tantrum Aubree was throwing, Frieda felt the need to calm the former down. “Um… How did you know that Essie is at
