“May I know your last name?” Pamela suddenly looked at her. “Jarvis,” Roxanne replied in a hoarse voice. Once Pamela heard the answer, she breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly notified Lucian.
I’ve never heard of the Farwell family having any relationship with a family with the surname Jarvis. Thus, this woman will certainly not be any relative of Essie. Luckily, I call Mr. Farwell in time to confirm it.
However, the person on the other end of the line fell silent after she told him Roxanne’s last name. It made her a little worried, and she wondered if she had done anything wrong.
“Get her to wait. I’m heading over right now.” When Pamela was about to apologize, Lucian’s deep voice suddenly rang out.
She looked at the woman before her in confusion and hastily agreed. Roxanne noticed Pamela’s gaze and felt her heart drop.
After hanging up the phone, Pamela looked at Roxanne solemnly and said, “Mr. Farwell said he’ll be here soon. Please leave Estella to me.”
Lucian’s tone on the phone just now somehow. made Pamela subconsciously think that Roxanne was an enemy of the Farwell family.
Roxanne, however, only heard the first half of Pamela’s sentence. She was stunned in place and didn’t respond at all.
Pamela got a little anxious and reached out to pull Estella over, but the little girl wrapped her arms around Roxanne’s legs and refused to let go.
“Essie, come over here. Your daddy will be here soon,” Pamela tried to convince Estella. “Ms. Jarvis…” Estella looked at Roxanne pitifully when Pamela tugged at her.
The way Estella addressed Roxanne made Pamela even more distressed. Oh, my. What exactly is the relationship between this woman and Essie? Out of anxiousness, Pamela increased her strength gradually.
Only then did Roxanne return to her senses and reach out to hold Pamela’s wrist. In a gentle voice, she said, “Don’t worry. I won’t do anything to Essie. If you are worried, you may call the security over.”
Pamela seemed somewhat hesitant upon hearing that. Estella seems to rely on this
woman very much. But Mr. Farwell’s tone on the phone just now… and this woman’s identity is still a mystery.
“I believe Mr. Farwell didn’t tell you to take Essie away from me just now. Did he?” Roxanne smiled at Pamela helplessly.
Pamela withdrew her hands slowly upon hearing that. Indeed, if this woman were dangerous to Essie, Mr. Farwell would have asked me to protect Essie immediately.
With that thought in mind, Pamela did nothing more but ask in puzzlement, “What exactly is your relationship with Essie?”
Roxanne flashed her a faint smile. “You will know when Mr. Farwell arrives.”
After all, Pamela only recognized Lucian’s statement at that moment. If Lucian refused to admit it, everything Roxanne said would only be a waste of time.. It might even deepen Pamela’s suspicions in her.
“Mr. Farwell will take some time to get here. Could you please bring me a medical kit? I want to treat the back of Essie’s hand,” Roxanne requested.
Hearing that, Pamela left to get the medical kit, but it suddenly occurred to her that she still had no idea who the person in front of her was, and she retracted her leg.
Roxanne could roughly guess what was on Pamela’s mind. Saying nothing, she held Estella’s injured hand and rubbed it carefully.
