Leaving The Country After Divorce Chapter 820

Chapter 820 Console Essie

For a moment, Roxanne did not know how to respond to Estella’s declaration of love. I mean, I like Essie too, but I

have never entertained the thoughts of becoming her mother.

After all, she has her own biological mother. If anything, children would probably prefer their biological parents

more…

A good example will be Archie and Benny. Although they don’t know the truth of their births yet, their attitude

toward Lucian is clearly different from the rest.

“You can’t?” Having received no answer from Roxanne, Estella lowered her eyes in disappointment and despair.

Roxanne’s heart ached when she saw the girl’s disappointment, but there was nothing she could do besides giving

her a merciless rejection. Patiently, she explained to the girl, “Essie, you’ll have your own mommy, and once you

have your mommy, you’ll find out that liking mommy and liking me don’t feel the same.”

Estella tightened her fists stubbornly and looked at Roxanne with tearful eyes. “I only like Ms. Jarvis!”

“You won’t—” Roxanne said in resignation when she saw Estella’s tears.

However, before she could finish her sentence, the girl gave her a heart wrenching look.

Her gaze seemed as though it was capable of seeing through people’s souls, and that made Roxanne stiffen.

In the next second, Estella let go of her shirt and ran outside.

“Essie!” Roxanne cried out when she returned to her senses. Right as she was about to run after the girl, the man

beside her had already sped off after her.

Staring at Lucian’s back, Roxanne ran for two steps, then stopped hesitantly.

Essie dashed off because of me. If she sees me again, will she feel worse? Should I… not show up around her for a

while for now?

The boys had never thought that things would turn out this way either. They froze for a few seconds before they

recollected themselves.

When they saw their mother’s pale face, they decided not to go after Estella. Instead, they went to their mother’s

side silently and muttered, “Mommy…”

They could see that their mother seemed sad as well, but they did not know how to console her. They held their

tongues after that and merely kept her company at the side.

Roxanne gradually came back to her senses a while later. She lowered her gaze to look at the boys and whispered,

“Should I not have rejected Essie just now?”

The boys shared a look, but neither knew what to reply to her.



If Mommy hasn’t accepted Daddy, then it’s nothing unusual for her to reject Essie. But who knew Essie would be

that disappointed and run out without a word?

Truth be told, Roxanne was not expecting an answer from them. After saying that, she hung her head in silence as

waves of panic and frustration washed over her.

She could see that Estella was hoping for a mother with the way she had raised that sudden question.

She wondered how Estella’s mother could bear to abandon the girl.

Roxanne was already distressed enough when Estella had gone missing previously.

She’s not familiar with her surroundings. I wonder if she’ll lose her way like she did the last time.

Archie and Benny could see the anxiety on their mother’s face. They consoled her, “Don’t worry, Mommy. Mr.

Farwell will surely find Essie.”

Roxanne’s eyes flicked toward the boys, and she forced a smile.

“We’ll help you comfort Essie once Mr. Farwell is back with her.”

To distract their mother, the boys changed the topic back to the earlier phone call. “It’s getting late. Didn’t you

promise to meet Mr. Damaris? If you don’t leave now, you’re going to be late.”
