Refusing to Transfer Schools
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 at a nursing home
that afternoon, but because of how upset Estella was, Roxanne could not leave.
In response, Jack chuckled unconcernedly. “It’s okay; we can handle things there without you. What I’m
more worried about is you. Are you sick?”
As soon as Jack finished his sentence, he could vaguely hear crying from the other end of the line.
Are the boys the ones who are sick? Jack furrowed his eyebrows confusedly.
“I’m fine. I just… suddenly have a private matter to tend to,” answered Roxanne after glancing at the
bawling Estella.
Jack did not overthink the situation and simply assumed that he guessed correctly. “I’ll let you get back
to your private matter then.”
After Roxanne thanked Jack gratefully, the two ended the phone call without saying anything else.
Then, Roxanne hurried back to the children.
“Mommy, we couldn’t get Essie to stop crying.” Benny had disappointment written all over his face.
After patting the boy’s head, Roxanne lowered herself to pick up Estella. “It’s okay now, Essie. You
have Archie, Benny, and me here.”
As if she felt a sense of security in Roxanne’s arms, Estella finally opened her tear-filled eyes to look at
the woman.
Roxanne quickly patted Estella on the back when she sensed a change in the girl’s emotion, trying to
calm her down so she wouldn’t cry too hard.
“I d-don’t want to transfer schools!” uttered Estella, choking on her tears.
Roxanne was relieved to hear Estella speak but quickly became distressed because of what the girl
said.
Even though Roxanne knew what Estella wanted, there was nothing she could do about it.
“Ms. Jarvis… I want you, Ms. Jarvis…” voiced Estella as she continued to sob.
Immediately, Roxanne responded, “I’m here. I’m here with you.”
The two boys then climbed up the couch and carefully tugged Estella’s sleeve. “We’re here too, so you
don’t have to cry anymore.”
“I…” Roxanne could not bear to see Estella cry again, so she decided to tell a white lie to appease the
girl. “I’ll speak to your father about it.”
“I want you to be my Mommy,” added the teary-eyed Estella.
Gulping, Roxanne dared not promise Estella that.
However, her heart could not help but break a little every time she heard the girl sob.
Only after a while did Roxanne respond, “I’ll always like you no matter what our relationship is. Would
you dislike me if I couldn’t be your mother, Essie?”
