By the time they settled in their room, it was already nighttime. Pippa led the parents to the restaurant the botanical garden had arranged for them.

Roxanne took Archie and Benny to get their food.

There were far more employees of the botanical garden at the restaurant than when they first gotoff the bus, and Estella did not like that.

She followed closely behind Roxanne, never taking her eyes off the latter.

Roxanne turned around when she sensed Estella’s gaze, and a pained look appeared in her eyes upon noticing the girl’s timid expression.

She immediately let Archie and Benny hold hands, thus allowing her to free one hand to take Estella’s.

Seeing Roxanne reach her hand out toward her, Estella took it without hesitation, her eyes crinkling as she beamed.

All signs of timidness had vanished from her face without a trace.

Lucian was still worried about Estella, so he followed her.

Then, he saw Roxanne and Estella holding hands, and mixed feelings surged within him as he walked behind Roxanne.
