Roxanne felt utterly helpless.
She knew Lucian was mad at her, but she never expected him to reject her call.
Upon hearing Pamela’s words, Roxanne had no choice but to put Estella down resignedly.
After she put her down, Estella hurriedly clung to her leg, unwilling to let go no matter what anyone said.
“Essie, come here.” Pamela crouched down and opened her arms.
However, Estella kept her eyes fixed on Roxanne as if she had heard nothing.
The entire situation left Pamela in an awkward position. At the same time, she began to wonder what Roxanne’s
relationship with Estella was.
Seeing that, Roxanne patted Estella’s head. “Be a good girl and go to your teacher, Essie.”
Estella shook her head fervently and showed Roxanne her injured hand again. She whined, “My hand. It

Roxanne’s heart ached when she saw the red mark on the back of Estella’s hand. She stroked it gently and said to
Pamela, “Please help Essie to apply some medication later. Her hand was stepped on earlier.”
Of course, Pamela was unaware of that incident.
When she heard Roxanne’s words, she quickly approached to examine Essie’s hand.
The second she saw the mark on the back of Estella’s hand, her heart sank. “Essie, what happened? Who bullied
you?”
Pamela was horrified. After all, she, as a teacher, had absolutely no idea the daughter of Farwell Group had been
injured in her class
Still, Estella pursed her lips and said nothing.
Seeing that, Roxanne had no choice but to explain, “It’s the children from just now. I’ve already taught them a
lesson, but please look after Essie more in the future. At the very least, don’t let her get bullied. She’s not very
sociable”
Pamela nodded vigorously, feeling more certain that the woman in front of her had some sort of relationship with
Estella
Regardless, because of Roxanne’s ever-changing answer, Pamela decided to ask Estella, “Essie, can you tell me
who this lady is to you?”
Worried Estella might ignore her like how she did earlier, Pamela added, “If you don’t tell me, I have no choice but
to get the police.”
Sure enough, the idea of getting the police triggered a response from Estella. “Mommy!”
Pamela felt as if she was about to break into a cold sweat.
One moment, the lady claims to be her mommy. In the next, she’s her aunt. And now, Essie’s telling me the lady’s
her mommy.
After some time, Pamela got to her feet abruptly and took out her phone again.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThinking Pamela was going to make a police report, Roxanne did not stop her. After all, she knew her identity was
suspicious, and she had no proof to confirm it.
The call finally connected after some time. However, the words that came out of Pamela’s mouth were “Mr
Farwell.”
Upon hearing that, Roxanne froze to the spot.
She was already mentally unprepared when she had to call Lucian earlier.
And now Pamela had directly given Lucian a call without a word of warning.
Furthermore, Roxanne never expected Lucian to answer it so quickly.
He hung up on me just now…
Lucian said something into the phone, to which Pamela explained, “A lady suddenly came to the kindergarten
looking for Essie, and Essie seems to be close to her. The problem is that this lady claimed to be Essie’s mother at
first and aunt the next. I couldn’t confirm her real identity, so I’m calling you to get your verification.”
Cold sweat trickled down Roxanne’s back when she heard Pamela even recounting the incident where she had
claimed to be Estella’s mother.
