Chapter 7
There were now only two people inside the room.
Lucian scanned his surroundings before his gaze fell on his daughter.
The little girl was still upset by Roxanne’s sudden departure, so upon seeing her father, not only was she completely unafraid, but she even turned away with a huff.
A faint scowl appeared on Lucian’s face.
Well aware that Estella was just as enigmatic and difficult to handle as her father was, this was a job for Lucian’s assistant, Cayden.
“Are you okay, Ms. Estella?”
The little girl merely glanced at him before furiously turning away once more.
Cayden observed her. Noticing that she was safe and sound, he sighed with relief and turned to report to his boss.
With narrowed eyes, Lucian turned to the woman beside his daughter.
Madilyn’s chest tightened as she met his gaze, and she secretly squeezed her own hands to compose herself.
“Where’s Roxanne?”
Lucian’s expression darkened as he took a good look at Madilyn’s face.
He could actually tell it was her?
Madilyn fretted internally while at the same time feeling relieved that her best friend had left in time.
