Chapter 678 

Estella pouted and was visibly upset. “I can play with the boys. I don’t need you taking care of me, Ms. Jarvis.” 

Roxanne felt a pounding headache when the little girl insisted on staying. She decided to try a different approach

and said softly, “Why don’t you come another day, Essie? I will surely accompany you by then. I really don’t have

the time today.” 

When the little girl was about to say something, Lucian suddenly voiced, “Essie, Ms. Jarvis told you she’s busy. Don’t

disturb her further.” 

As Roxanne had mentioned the Damaris family just now, his tone was rather clipped. 

Estella was shocked by her father’s icy tone. She widened her eyes innocently and dared not say anything else as

she gave Roxanne puppy dog eyes. 

The cold wind roused Archie and Benny from their grogginess. Likewise, they were taken aback by their father’s

tone. 

The two boys exchanged glances with each other. We’d better not piss Daddy off in the future. He’s so fierce! 

Roxanne disapproved of Lucian’s stern manner and furrowed her brows in response. “Essie is still young. Don’t vent

your frustration on her, and be more mindful of your tone.” 

Lucian felt incredulous listening to her. 

She was the one seeking my help, and now when I help her out, she’s commenting on my tone instead? 

Estella knew that Roxanne was backing her up and immediately nodded in agreement as she huffed at her father. 

Noticing the two uniting against him, Lucian massaged his temples and tried to suppress his anger. He toned down

and said, “Quit messing around. Ms. Jarvis is still dripping wet. She’s going to catch a cold if she stays outside any

longer. Essie, say goodbye to Ms. Jarvis and close the door behind you.” 

Lucian knew how to make his daughter listen after all. 

As expected, Estella hesitated when she heard Lucian saying that Roxanne might catch a cold. She relented and

waved goodbye to Roxanne. “Hurry up and go on inside, Ms. Jarvis. I will come to play with Archie, Benny, and you

some other time.” 

Roxanne let out a relieved sigh. She smiled and nodded at the little girl. “You’re so thoughtful, Essie.” 

Archie and Benny immediately huddled together near the car window when they heard that Essie was leaving and

said, “We’re going to take you skateboarding next week!” 

Estella’s eyes glinted, and she nodded enthusiastically. She waved at them and was about to close the car door.

Before she closed the door, however, Lucian’s voice rang again. There was a hint of displeasure in his voice. “Essie,

pass Ms. Jarvis her stuff.” 

Estella appeared lost and looked around the car. Then, she noticed the bouquet of flowers on the passenger seat. 

The little girl pursed her lips when she noticed that Roxanne had left the flowers behind. She fetched the flowers

and presented them to Roxanne. “You forgot your flowers, Ms. Jarvis!” 

Roxanne was stumped at the sight of the flowers. 

Lucian had not made it clear that the flowers were for her. In fact, she did not intend to receive any flowers from

the man. Hence, she left the flowers on the passenger seat when she got out of the car just now 

Roxanne did not expect that the man would use such a way to let her know that the flowers were intended for her. 

Conflicting emotions welled up in her as the pang of realization hit her. 

Noticing that Roxanne had not taken the flowers, Estella nudged the bouquet forward and called out, “Ms. Jarvis?”
