Chapter 666 Replacing Aubree
Archie and Benny watched silently and enviously from behind. They also wanted to wear matching outfits with their parents. However, they weren’t as bold as their younger sister. Knowing that Lucian was their father, they tended to act more reserved in front of him.
Roxanne looked at the happy smile on Estella’s face, and her concern reduced greatly. She patted the girl’s head and said, “The dress really suits you, Essie. Let’s take it off now so the employee can bag them.”
Estella shook her head without hesitation and grabbed Roxanne’s hand tightly. She did not want to take off the dress that quickly when it was rare for her to wear the same clothes as Roxanne.
Roxanne could guess what the girl was thinking. Well, since we’re already wearing these matching outfits, I don’t think there is any difference if we wear them for a little longer. She went along with Estella’s idea and asked the employee to bag the clothes they were originally wearing.
After following the employee to the cash register, she was about to pay for the dresses with her phone when Lucian pulled out his card and gave it to the employee.
Roxanne was slightly stunned, as she thought the action seemed a little too intimate. With a frown, she said, “I can pay for it.”
Lucian looked at her, then at Estella and said, “You didn’t need to buy any clothes, Ms. Jarvis. You’re only doing so now because of Essie. So I should be the one to pay for it.”
When the employee at the side sensed the ambiguous atmosphere between the two and saw Lucian’s black card, she chimed in, “There’s no need for you to be so courteous with this gentleman, Miss. After all, a man should pay for a woman.”
Then she grabbed the card in Lucian’s hand.
Roxanne frowned and kept her phone. She knew the employee had misunderstood their relationship.
Before they left, the employee asked carefully, “May I take a photo of you with the girl?”
Roxanne refused politely, knowing what the employee was trying to do, and left with the children.
If she agreed, her picture with Estella would no doubt be put up in the shop.
By then, if anyone saw it or word got out, it might cause unnecessary misunderstandings.
Frieda watched as they exited the shop, and immediately, she noticed Roxanne and Estella had changed into new outfits. Why do their dresses look as though they were made by the same person?
It wasn’t until she stared at the dresses for a while that she realized they were matching outfits. That b*tch! Not only did she not learn her lesson last time, but she’s being more and more ridiculous! Even though she knows Lucian has a fiancée and that Essie will have a new mother in the future, she still has the gall to wear a matching outfit with her! Not only that, both of them look pretty close to each other from the back! If I allow them to continue like this, won’t Roxanne end up replacing Aubree?
At that thought, Frieda promptly pulled out her phone and took a photo of Roxanne and Estella before sending the picture to Aubree.
After that, she continued to follow them with a scowl. The sky’s turning dark. Let’s see where they’re going.
“Frieda!” Hasso was holding bags of clothing when he turned around and noticed Frieda was already leaving the shop. He quickly went after her. “How much longer do we need to follow them? I’ve already made dinner arrangements…”
Frieda pursed her lips, looking annoyed. However, when she turned to face him, her expression changed. She held his arm petulantly and asked, “Is my friend more important or is dinner more important?”
Giddy with joy that his goddess had taken the initiative to show him affection, Hasso nodded. “Your friend, of course!”
