Chapter 1055 Rude
Sonya turned her attention to Estella, who was hiding behind Roxanne. “Essie, come on. I’ll bring you home.” Estella had
a firm grip on the edge of Roxanne’s clothing. When she heard Sonya’s words, she recoiled in fear.
I’ve just met Ms. Jarvis, so I don’t want to go home yet. Besides, Grandma looks really scary. I just didn’t want to attend
the new kindergarten, that’s all, but she wants to discipline me like the cruel Ms. Pearson!
Estella was overwhelmed by fear as she remembered Sonya’s expression from that day.
Sonya realized that Estella was frightened of her, so she apologized softly, “I’m here to apologize, Essie. I must have
scared you that day, haven’t I? I promise it won’t happen again. You’re my precious princess, Essie.”

She reached out and tried to pry away Estella’s hand that was gripping Roxanne’s clothes. It was frustrating to see her
granddaughter preferring another woman over her.
At once, Archie and Benny dashed forward to stand in front of Roxanne and protect Estella. This time, they wouldn’t
let Sonya bring Estella away no matter what.
“Won’t you control your kids?” Sonya shot an irritated glare at Roxanne. “They first sneaked Essie out of the Farwell
residence, and now they are trying to prevent me from bringing her back. Why? Do they consider Essie to be their
real sister?”
Conflicting emotions welled up in the boys’ hearts when they heard that. We don’t know who Essie’s mommy is, but
we are indeed her half-siblings.
With that thought in mind, they grew increasingly determined to protect her.

Roxanne was also reminded of the kids’ relationship, but she didn’t know how to reply to Sonya.
As Roxanne remained silent, Sonya took a step forward and attempted to push the boys out of her way.
Instinctively, Roxanne reached out to protect her children by gripping Sonya’s wrist.
Both women were at a standstill for a moment before Sonya withdrew her hand with a scowl. She stated coldly,
“Like mother, like son. It’s no wonder they are so mischievous, given that you are their mother.”
Roxanne believed that she had raised both boys well, so she felt a stab of anger upon hearing Sonya’s criticism.
“Mrs. Farwell, you can criticize me all you like, but isn’t it rude of you to vent your anger on the kids?”
Sonya valued her pride the most, and Roxanne’s words had hit her sore spot. “What did you just say?” she shrieked.
Unfazed, Roxanne said, “You claim to feel sorry for Essie, but have you ever considered why Essie is afraid of you if you
truly love her? It’s because your supposed love is just fulfilling your own ego!”

Sonya was practically quivering in rage. She looked at her granddaughter, wanting to refute Roxanne’s statement with
facts.
However, Estella merely cowered behind Roxanne silently. Her behavior seemed to verify Roxanne’s statement instead of
supporting Sonya.
“I already told you last time that Essie can’t handle stress, but you kept forcing her to act against her wishes. I doubt
that you love her,” Roxanne stated firmly.
She piled on the pressure, not giving Sonya any room to maneuver.
Sonya flew into a fit of anger. “You know nothing! Who are you to question me? Essie is a Farwell, so it’s up to us to
decide how we want to raise her. That has nothing to do with you!”
