Chapter 175

For the next few days, Estella played with Roxanne al home but had no playmates at the kindergarten.

She could only watch as Archie and Benny played with the other children and ignored her entirely. Finally, she plucked up her courage to run to them.

The boys shared a look and put on stern expressions. “What do you want?”

Estella clutched the corners of her skirt until it was all crumpled up. Her brows snapped together as she stared at them solemnly. Parting her lips, she tried to make a sound.
