The three little ones shared a look, dropped the Lego blocks in their hands, and ran toward the kitchen.“What happened, Mommy?” Lucian and Nox looked worriedly at their mother.Rosalie snapped back to her senses and felt even uneasier as she looked at the two little fellas before her. She lowered her gaze as she barely suppressed the emotions in her heart. She smiled and shook her head at them. “Nothing much. My hand slipped and I broke a bowl. Don’t come in, okay? There are pieces of broken glass everywhere.”When she was done, she nonchalantly squatted down to clean up the mess. The storm in her heart was still raging, causing her to zone out while she was picking up glass pieces.Byron stood behind the three little ones. As he looked at the woman who was hunched on the floor, his eyes darkened.He was not sure if he read her correctly, but he felt that this woman had her mind occupied.Rosalie lowered her head as she felt the man's gaze fall heavily on her, making her feel li

As soon as they were in the living room, Rosalie was pinned onto the couch.The three little ones stuck closely to her like three little tails as they looked worriedly at her handkerchief-wrapped finger.Byron, on the other hand, was scouring the living room for a first aid kit.Alas, Lucian got off the couch and took the first aid kit out from below the TV cabinet. He passed it to him.Byron caressed Lucian’s head, took the first aid kit, and stood beside Rosalie.The little ones scampered away, giving him space.Byron sat down with an aloof expression. His icy aura caused the atmospheric pressure around him to have a major dip, but his actions were gentle.Rosalie lowered her gaze to watch him for a while before she could not help but avert it in feign calmness to look at the floor.If she were to continue watching him, she was afraid that she might cause some unwanted misunderstanding.This man. All he had for her was supposed to only be pure hatred, so why was he so caring

Rosalie breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Lisa say yes so quickly.She had thought about looking for a nanny for the kids, but she did not expect to meet a suitable one so easily. “Just come by tomorrow morning, then! I’ll get the agreement ready, and you can take a look tomorrow. If you’re okay with what’s written, you can sign it.” After a simple discussion about the pay with Rosalie suggesting and Lisa agreeing to it, Lisa left with her tools after bidding the rest goodbye.Only a few of them were left in the living room.After speaking with Lisa, Rosalie’s heart was at peace once more. When she was in front of Byron, the sense of detachment resumed. “Sorry to trouble you tonight, from the dressing of my wound and helping me find a domestic helper. I owe you one.”Byron looked at how aloof she was being, and a tinge of odd emotion flashed through his eyes. He quickly suppressed it and replied nonchalantly. “No need. If you really wanna keep count, it was Estie and me

By the time Byron brought Estie back, it was almost ten o’clock at night.They saw the housekeeper waiting at the door the moment they got out of the car.“Master, Miss Fuller is here. She’s waiting in the house.”Byron’s brows furrowed together slightly as he nodded his head. He brought Estie into the house.“You’re back!”Wendy was seated on the couch. As soon as she saw the two walk through the door, she got up immediately to welcome them back. She squatted down and tried to pat Estie’s head when Estie avoided her hand.A trace of displeasure flashed through Wendy’s eyes, but she covered it up quickly as she got up again with a smile.“Yes?” Byron threw a glance at Wendy and asked coldly.Wendy smiled nonchalantly as she spoke, “Thank you for sending someone over today to help us out. It was of great help to us, so my dad insisted that I came over to thank you properly.”When she was done speaking, she wanted to continue when Byron cut her off, “Things are settled?”Wendy

The next morning, as Wendy was having her breakfast, she received a call from the bodyguard.“Miss, I’ve checked. President Lawrence brought Miss Estelle to visit a woman with the last name of Jacobs. They were there for nearly three hours before they went back…”Before the bodyguard could finish his sentence, he heard the busy dial tone on the other end of the phone call.Woman with the last name of Jacobs, Rosalie Jacobs!Wendy’s face was extremely contorted as images of Byron spending time with Rosalie began to appear in her mind.Three hours! What did they do during that time? He even brought Estie along! Wendy was so furious she shot up to her feet and smashed the phone she was holding onto the floor with an insane look in her eyes.Opposite her, Henry was eating his breakfast when he heard the commotion from Wendy’s side. He turned around to look at her with a frown.He saw his daughter’s gnarly face as she stood beside the table. Her phone was smashed on the floor near

Estie started running when she normally would not as she waved to the beautiful lady and handsome young boys at the gate. Seeing how the little girl was joyful while ignoring the surrounding road conditions, Rosalie quickly walked forward and held the girl’s hand. She then glanced helplessly at the man who was still walking over slowly. Estie was smiling while holding hands with the beautiful lady. When she finally stood still, she immediately hugged Rosalie’s leg intimately. The two boys were not jealous at all and greeted the little girl with broad smiles. Seeing Byron walking over and standing somewhere near them, Nox grabbed his coat bravely. Byron lowered his head in confusion.“Good morning, Mr. Byron!” Nox smiled innocently.Byron was slightly taken aback and twitched his brows a little before saying gently, “Mhm, good morning to you too.”Nox had a broad smile on his face upon getting a response from his daddy. Lucian pursed his lips and nodded at the man like a

Rosalie came back to her senses and glanced over her before looked toward Andrius who was at the side.Andrius managed to sense the awkwardness between the two and walked toward Rosalie as if he knew nothing, blocking Wendy’s sight. “Dr. Jacobs, my grandpa is waiting for you upstairs. Shall we?”Rosalie nodded gently. Adrius greeted Wendy on the sofa and brought Rosalie upstairs. Just as the two reached the start of the staircase, Wendy’s voice came from behind. “I heard that Grandpa Quirke’s health condition has improved because of Miss Jacobs’ treatment. I also wanted to pay him a visit and take a look at how Miss Jacobs does her job.”That being said, she followed behind them as if it was nothing. Rosalie frowned slightly, but because Andrius did not comment further, she had no choice but just to take it as if Wendy was not there.Under Rosalie’s treatment, Old Master Quirke had recovered a lot. He had even moved out of the room and went back to his own bedroom. When t

After the treatment ended, Andrea had also returned home. After knowing that her grandfather was undergoing his treatment, she went straight up to the old master’s bedroom.“Grandpa, how are you feeling?” Andrea asked caringly the moment she stepped in.The old master nodded gently. “Much better.”Throughout his years of being alive, he knew quite a bit about holistic medicine and had met numerous doctors. Yet, Dr. Jacobs indeed surprised and amazed him. Each time after the treatment, he could obviously feel that his body was replenished. Even other specialists were unable to perform to such an extent. Andrea took a closer look to be sure, then nodded with a smile. “That’s good.”She turned to Wendy. “Wendy, you are here to see Grandpa too? It’s getting late. Why don’t you stay for dinner?”Wendy would obviously not reject the offer and said to the old master, “Grandfather, I guess I shall stay and trouble you a little.” The old master nodded happily. Rosalie noticed

When they went downstairs, the old master had already asked Rosalie if he could get off his bed before letting Andrius and the butler help him down. Rosalie lowered her gaze and sat by the dining table as if there was nothing wrong. She was trying her best to lower her presence. Andrea seemed to be deliberately raising different topics to talk about, and she would ask for Wendy’s opinion before moving on to her. The old master was present, so she still answered everything. Not long after, the butler’s voice came from the main entrance. “Young Master Lawrence.”What followed was Byron’s short response. A moment later, the man’s slender figure appeared in front of the crowd. “Old Man Quirke,” Byron greeted Old Master Quirke first, then glanced around the dining table. He paused for a moment when he saw Rosalie. Facing his gaze, Rosalie secretly clenched her palm and nodded at him calmly as a greeting. Byron raised his brows a little and pursed his lips in response. “

Wendy had been paying attention to Byron’s expression. After noticing how he looked at that woman when this topic was brought up, jealousy flushed through her mind. “It’s no rush.” Byron’s eyes were locked on the person in front of him. ‘Let’s see if this woman can still be so calm after hearing such an answer!’Hearing such words, Rosalie was stunned for a brief moment and was relieved right after. ‘They’ll still be married either way. It’s just a matter of time. Why should I be surprised?’After thinking this way, Rosalie lowered her head once again and continued eating as if the interaction earlier had nothing to do with her. Wendy found it strange to hear such an answer. Previously when she mentioned to him about getting married, the man had made it quite clear that he wanted to call it off. Now, things had changed. Old Master Quirke was obviously dissatisfied with Byron’s answer and wanted to convince him further. Noticing that, Wendy quickly responded, “It’s not l
