The Mosquitoes Keep Biting Me
Meanwhile, although the light in Aubree’s room had been turned off, she had yet to go to sleep.
Aubree waited until she saw Lucian carry Estella to the car and slowly drive out of the Farwell
residence before tiptoeing around her room to gather some things. Then, she opened the door and
crept to Estella’s room.
Lucian had left in such a hurry that he did not even close the door to Estella’s room, which only made
things easier for Aubree.
Using the glow from her phone screen to see what she was doing, she switched out a few things inside
Estella’s bathroom. After scanning the room carefully and ensuring nothing appeared out of the
ordinary, she left quietly.
Back in her room, the thought of the distressed look on Estella’s face filled her heart with glee.
That little brat… Let’s see if she dares to go against me again!
Meanwhile, Estella’s condition did not get any better as they made their way to Roxanne’s house. She
could not refrain from occasionally reaching out to rake her nails wildly over her skin.
Lucian could see what she was doing through the rearview mirror, and his brows knitted together. While
they stopped at a traffic light, he took the chance to call Roxanne again.
Roxanne had already prepared her medical kit and was anxiously waiting for them to arrive.
When she saw that Lucian was calling her, she answered her phone immediately.
“I’m on the way to your house, but Essie can’t stand the itchiness and keeps scratching. You should
chat with her for a little while.”
Lucian was subconsciously thinking of Roxanne as Estella’s biological mother. He spoke in a way that
sounded as though that was the most natural thing for Roxanne to do.
As for Roxanne, since the matter concerned Estella, she did not notice anything odd about his tone and
agreed without hesitation.
Over in the rear passenger seat, Estella stared at Lucian’s phone as soon as she heard Roxanne’s
voice. I want to talk to Ms. Jarvis!
A second later, Estella saw him toss his phone over to her.
She quickly grabbed it. Then, holding the phone in both hands, she proceeded to voice her grievances
to Roxanne. “Ms. Jarvis, it’s so itchy! The mosquitoes keep biting me!”
Upon hearing Estella’s miserable voice, Roxanne felt a pang shooting through her heart. “Be good and
don’t scratch, okay? I’ll take a look later and make you all better.”
Estella sadly mumbled a response.
To distract Estella, Roxanne started chatting to her about arts and crafts again.
It seemed to work as Estella’s hands stopped moving after a while.
Lucian heaved a sigh of relief and began driving even faster.
Soon, the car slowly pulled up in front of the entrance to Roxanne’s residential area.
“We’re here.”
Roxanne vaguely heard Lucian’s voice over the phone. Then, the intercom in her house started ringing.
She hung up and went to the intercom to open the gates of the residential area for Lucian and Estella
to come in. After that, she opened the mansion door and waited in the yard.
In the dark of the night, she watched as a car slowly drove toward her and stopped in her yard.
Lucian alighted from the car. His shirt was only a thin, ashy gray one. He turned to open the rear
passenger seat door and carried Estella out of the car.
“Ms. Jarvis!” From afar, Estella stretched out her hands toward Roxanne while still in her father’s arms,
wanting Roxanne to carry her.
Roxanne hurried forward to carry Estella. However, Lucian dodged away.
Roxanne was taken aback. Her thoughts flew to their rather unpleasant conversation earlier that
evening, and she guessed that he was still annoyed by her relationship with Jack.
However, Lucian frowned and simply said, “We don’t know if it’s contagious.”
