Lucian ordered in a cold voice, “You guys have one day to find out what happened and who dared to mess around near the Farwell residence!” After hearing that, Axel agreed without hesitation and immediately led people to patrol nearby the residence.The few hooligans who took money from Aubree received an order from her to stay around the area for the next few days to keep an eye out for the two children.Aubree felt they would come again since they didn’t see Estella when they came the last time.As long as they dared to come, they wouldn’t be able to escape easily as they did.The next morning, the security team of the Farwell residence surrounded the hooligans.“Please, we didn’t do anything!”The hooligans quickly squatted down while shielding their heads as they sensed the other party was not to be trifled with.Axel looked at them coldly. “Did you people chase after two children yesterday?”They exchanged glances with each other, not daring to respond first.These men in black a

The teacher glanced at Estella before turning to Sonya. She then rephrased her sentence. “It’s not that Essie is ignoring the other kids; it’s that she screams when they come close to her.”Then, as if life was trying to prove the teacher’s words, Sonya noticed a few children who were getting picked up by their parents whispering as they looked in Estella’s direction.Along with the teacher’s words, Sonya could guess what those children were whispering about.“Our Essie takes a while to warm up to strangers. It’s her first day here, after all. I hope the teachers will be more patient with her,” Sonya said, maintaining her polite demeanor. “Essie will be a good kid once she’s used to them.”Then, Sonya lowered her head to look at Estella and asked, “Right, Essie?”Estella pressed her lips tightly together as she continued to hang her head. It was as if she did not hear Sonya.Sonya furrowed her brows and crouched down patiently. “I’m talking to you, Essie.”The girl blinked before loo

Archie took the chance to sprint out of the mansion with Estella in tow. They then hid in a corner and waited for Benny to leave. Inside the mansion, Catalina had just poured a cup of water for Benny and a*sumed he was about to go upstairs.To her surprise, Benny gave her a polite bow. “Thank you, Ms. Catalina. I shall take my leave now.”Catalina frowned in puzzlement. “What about Archie?”They both came together, so she couldn’t understand why they would leave separately.Benny pursed his lips guiltily. “Archie left a while ago. He and I snuck in here without telling Mommy, and we were busted. She’s probably giving him an earful right now.”Catalina nodded understandingly. She found their antics amusing.I can’t believe they came this far just to visit a friend. Ms. Jarvis must be beside herself with worry.She suddenly recalled what happened previously and offered, “I’ll ask someone to give you a ride home.”Benny waved his hands anxiously. “N-No need for that. My mommy is waiting

Roxanne felt that this was unjust for Estella. “Just because Essie is a Farwell, does that mean she should be treated this way and not be allowed to befriend people she likes?”Sonya sneered, “If you’re talking about your sons, then she isn’t allowed to befriend them.”A flash of disappointment crossed Archie and Benny’s faces when they heard that.Does Grandma hate us that much? She won’t even allow us to be friends with Essie.Roxanne was upset, too. “Mrs. Farwell, the children have nothing to do with our grudge.”Roxanne knew that the elderly lady’s hatred for Archie and Benny must have stemmed from her, for they rarely interacted with Sonya.With that thought in mind, she cast the boys an apologetic look.Though the boys had no idea about their own background, their biological grandmother ended up despising them because of her.For one split second, Roxanne had the urge to reveal Archie and Benny’s identities to Sonya so she would stop insulting her boys.Sonya was not interested

Roxanne was dumbfounded since she did not expect Lucian to agree to their request so easily. She finally regained her senses when Estella came running toward her, sobbing after her father set her down on the floor.“Ms. Jarvis…” The girl quickly wrapped her arms around Roxanne’s thigh.After caressing Estella’s head, Roxanne looked up at Lucian, who then nodded indifferently at her and glanced at the three children before heading to his car.Only after watching Lucian drive away did Roxanne take the children into the living room.“You two look after Essie. I need to make a phone call,” instructed Roxanne.Archie and Benny immediately nodded in response and did their best to comfort Estella while Roxanne hurried into a corner to call Jack, who did not take long to answer.“What’s up, Ms. Jarvis?” inquired Jack.“Sorry, but I’m afraid I’ll have to take another rain check,” replied Roxanne apologetically.According to their schedule, the two were supposed to provide medical consultation
