Mission To Remarry

Chapter 990 Leave Essie To Me

“Lucian…” Aubree’s expression stiffened when she saw him. “Why are you here? I thought you were indisposed, so I came to fetch Essie.”

Lucian glanced at her calmly. “I don’t recall asking you to do such a thing.” The expressions of the people around them changed the moment they heard the words.

Pippa began to feel fearful. Although she knew about Aubree and Lucian’s relationship and that Aubree would not dare to do anything drastic to the little girl, Estella was not an ordinary little girl.

If Pippa were to allow Estella to be taken away unknowingly, she would likely face repercussions. Thank goodness Essie didn’t go with her…

Relief washed across Archie’s and Benny’s faces. They had thought that it was weird for Aubree to come to pick up Estella when their father knew the little girl did not like the woman.

It was the evil woman’s ploy all along! Hmph! Good thing we stopped her. “Come here, Essie.” Lucian held out a hand toward the girl.

Still shaken, Estella sniffed aggrievedly and took her father’s hand. Lucian turned to look at Archie and Benny. Before he could speak, a strong gust of wind suddenly blew.
