Chapter 926 Vivid Expressions
Estella was still feeling a little upset, but her attention was diverted by the mention of the camping trip.
“Food and water…” Lucian furrowed his brows as he thought about it. “Ms. Jarvis will probably prepare those. Apart from that, what do you need?”
Estella was thoroughly distracted by the idea of camping. However, she had never attended team-bonding activities like camping before.
Furthermore, the Farwell family did not have the practice of bringing their children out camping. Thus, Estella was even more clueless when it came to the topic of camping.
A moment later, a cunning emotion flashed across her eyes. She suggested carefully, “Why don’t we ask Ms. Jarvis?”
Lucian stared at her through the rearview mirror and pretended that he had not heard her. “When we get back home, you should rest early.”
Estella knew that it was Lucian’s way of rejecting her suggestion. She quietened down unhappily.
Soon, they arrived at the Farwell residence.
Lucian got down from the car and opened the door for Estella. He then reached out to carry her.
Yet, Estella ignored his outstretched hands and hopped down by herself. She trudged back to the mansion with her head lowered.
When Catalina heard the doorbell, she opened the door and came out to ask them if they had eaten. However, she saw Estella sitting on the couch angrily.
Catalina looked at Lucian in confusion.
“We have eaten,” Lucian said in a low voice as he glanced at the dishes on the table.
Catalina nodded her head. “Then I’ll get them to clear the dishes.”
Thereafter, she could not help but express her concern for Estella. “What’s wrong with Ms. Estella?”
Lucian sidestepped the question. “Estella will be going camping tomorrow. Please prepare the necessary items for her.”
Catalina looked troubled. “Mr. Farwell, Ms. Estella…”
When Estella got mad, she would not allow other people to touch her things.
Naturally, Catalina would not be able to help Estella pack the items she needed for the camping trip.
Lucian turned to look at Estella, who was huddled on the couch. He frowned and said, “Forget it. I’ll help her.”
Catalina heaved a sigh of relief and looked on with worry as Lucian walked to Estella.
“It’s late. Pack your things and rest early.”
Lucian lowered his eyes to look at his fuming daughter.
Estella shot Lucian a glare before looking away huffily.
Lucian raised an eyebrow and reached out to pick Estella up in his arms.
Not a match for her father, Estella could only allow him to carry her back to her room.
The entire journey there, Estella pursed her lips and continued seething with anger. Lucian did not speak to her after they arrived either. Instead, he typed away on his phone busily.
He did not know what to prepare for the camping trip and could only search online.
Lucian finished reading the online resources before packing Estella’s bag for the trip.
A moment later, he helped Estella pack a small suitcase full of things to bring for the camping trip.
“What else do you need to bring?”
Lucian only turned to look at Estella after he had finished packing her bag for her.
Estella looked at the suitcase with both anger and expectation. She had no experience in camping, so she nodded without thinking.
Lucian thought that she was satisfied with it and zipped up the suitcase before placing it at the door.
“Rest early. You have to be up early tomorrow. Didn’t you ask Ms. Jarvis to fetch you tomorrow?” Lucian said before leaving.
He did not appear to care about Estella’s anger.
After speaking to her, he did not stay any longer and turned around to leave.
When Estella saw her father leaving without showing more concern for her, the angry expression on her face crumbled in an instant.
