Chapter 744

Chapter 744 Filled With Remorse

Initially, Estella only hid behind Catalina, but after she heard what Aubree said about being her future mother, her

expression instantly changed. She glared at Aubree angrily before running upstairs by herself.

Aubree’s face fell as she watched the girl leave. Catalina breathed an inward sigh of relief when she saw Estella

running away. “Ms. Estella’s emotions are often unstable. I hope you’ll forgive her, Ms. Pearson.”

In response, Aubree flashed her a forceful smile. Amidst her frustration, she heard sounds at the mansion’s

entrance. Subsequently, she saw Lucian stepping back into the building.

“Has Mrs. Farwell left already, Lucian?” Aubree made swift adjustments to her expression before staring at the

person at the entrance pitifully.

After shooting a glance at her, Lucian nodded indifferently and turned to Catalina. “Where’s Essie?”

He asked Catalina to take care of Estella before he went out, which was why he was wondering where his daughter

had gone to.

Catalina subconsciously glanced at Aubree before informing, “Ms. Estella… went back to her room.”

The man furrowed his brows. What did Aubree do to Essie again?

“Since Mrs. Farwell has already left, should I…” Aubree intentionally shot a piteous look at Lucian, wanting to ask if

she should stay or go.

Instead of looking at her, he relayed an order to Catalina. “Arrange a guest room for Ms. Pearson.”

Catalina was briefly shocked as she didn’t expect Lucian to allow Aubree to stay. Still, she complied with his order.

She was aware of Estella’s and Lucian’s attitudes toward Aubree, so she prepared a room that was furthest from

their bedrooms for Aubree to stay in.

When Aubree heard that she could stay, joy leaped into her heart as she promised, “I promise to not cause any

trouble!”

Lucian nodded coldly.

Earlier at the mansion’s entrance, his mother spent a long time convincing him to let Aubree stay.

She always managed to counter him with the right words, no matter what he said.

In the end, he had no choice but to agree.

However, he only agreed to let Aubree stay. That didn’t mean he was going to change his attitude toward her.

Soon, Catalina finished tidying the guest room and asked Aubree to go and take a look.



Instead of doing that, Aubree stared at Lucian. “My arm is injured. Can you help me carry my luggage?”

Frowning, Lucian grabbed her luggage indifferently and followed her upstairs.

Displeasure swiftly flashed past Aubree’s eyes when she saw the room Catalina had arranged for her. Why is it so

far away from Lucian’s room?

“This guest room is easier to clean up, and it’s bigger. It’ll be much more convenient for you to stay here, Ms.

Pearson,” Catalina explained with a grin.

With a forced smile, Aubree thanked her.

Seeing that Lucian was about to leave after he put the luggage down, she called out to him, “Lucian!”

He turned back to look at her.

“I tried to talk to Essie just now, but looks like she still dislikes me. Can I take Essie on a shopping trip to buy stuff for

her tomorrow to make up for my past mistakes?” Her face was filled with remorse as she gazed at him cautiously.

Unfortunately for her, Lucian was unmoved. “That won’t be necessary. Essie doesn’t need anything for the

moment. You should focus on taking care of yourself and return home soon.”

He then strode out of the room without giving her a chance to speak.
