Leaving The Country After Divorce chapter 262Chapter 262 The tree-planting activity started very early
the next morning.After waiting for the parents and children to finish breakfast, Pippa led themto the
venue of the event.The kindergarten had collaborated with a botanical garden to provide the kids with
an empty spot to plant some trees.There was quite a lot of staff standing by when they arrived. As the
kids were all born with silver spoons in their mouths, the staff made sure they were extra friendly with
them.Pippa then introduced the parents to the staff, split them into groups, and had them follow thestaff
to collect their saplings.Estella stared reluctantly at Roxanne when she heard they would be split into
groups.She refused to budge even when the teacher called her name.Lucian frowned when he saw RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
that and shifted his gaze toward Roxanne, who was standing nearby.After hearing the conversation
between Lucian and Aubree last night, Roxanne instinctively tried to keep her distance from them.She
then took Archie and Benny by the hand and walked away when she heard the teacher calling out to
Estella.“Ms.Jarvis…” Estella lowered her gaze in disappointment as she stood rooted to the
spot.Lucian wasn’t expecting Roxanne to just leave Estella like that, so he didn’t know how to comfort
her.Noticing that Lucian and Estella were still standing there after everyone else had left, Pippa came
over and asked worriedly, “What’s the matter, Essie? Do you not like plantingtrees?” Estella lowered
her gaze and shook her head in silence.Unsure of what she was thinking, Pippa turned toward Lucian
and asked, “What has gotten into her, Mr.Farwell?” The look in Lucian’s eyes turned gloomy when he
saw Estella’s disappointed expression and Roxanne returning with her saplingPippa didn’t dare press
on any furtherwhen she saw his expression.“Essie rarely participates in such events.Since this is her
first time, it’s normal for her to feel a little uncomfortable about it.Maybe you should take her home so
she can get some rest instead, Mr.Farwell.” Estella looked up at Pippa reluctantly and shook her head
to indicate that she did not want to go back.She wanted to spend more time with Roxanne, so going
back meant she would have less time with her.Pippa wasn’t sure of what to do as Estella simply shook
her head without saying anything.Right as she was racking her brain to come up with a solution, Lucian
said, “Ms.Jarvis’ two kids are the only mends that ‘Essie has in this kindergarten, so it’s only natural
that she wantsto be with them.She’s probably throwing a tantrum because she wasn’t placed in the
same group as them.” Estella noddedand said in an adorable voice, “I want Archie and Benny.” Since
she rarely spoke.Pippa’s heart melted when she heard that.“I’m sorry.I forgot to take this into
consideration when I grouped everyone according to the total number of participants.I’m sure you’ll
have more fun if you participate in this event with the kids you’re close with, Essie.In this case, you can
join Archie and Benny’s group.” “Thanks,” Lucian said with a nod before leading Estella over.Estella’s
eyes lit up with joy when she heard she could be grouped with Roxanne.She got so excited that she let
go of Lucian’s hand and ran up to Roxanne on her own.“Essie must really like Archie and
Benny.I rarely see her smile so happily like this,” Pippa exclaimed with a relieved smile when she saw
how happy Estella looked.Lucian simply nodded and made his way over without saying anything.
