The little ones knew that if Estelle did go to her new school, she would not be happy.However, seeing Rosalie was about to cry, the little ones decided to stop the conversation.“Okay, Mommy.”Rosalie forced a smile. “Come on. Let’s have dinner and sleep early.”The little ones agreed obediently.Everyone was absent-minded at the dining table during dinner.After filling their tummy, they went back to their rooms.Rosalie lay in bed looking at the conch Estelle gave her with complicated feelings.Yesterday, she was still listening to Lucian and Nox talking about playing with Estelle.However, now Byron was transferring Estelle to a new kindergarten.She did not even have to think about it to imagine how much the little girl would cry when she knew about this.However, she was in no position to comfort the little one.She did not even dare to ask.Rosalie felt heartbroken at the thought of Estelle’s face drenched with tears....Lucian and Nox lay on the same bed in the
Lisa went to wake the little ones up for school the following day.Her heart melted when she opened the door and saw the little ones huddling in one bed.Before she could speak, the little ones woke up on their own.However, they did not seem to be in good condition.“Nanny Lisa, I have a headache…”They slept late last night, and they had been sobbing for some time. Their voices were hoarse, and their faces were pale.Hearing the little ones’ words, Lisa was worried. She quickly checked on the little ones’ foreheads. They did not seem like they were going to have a fever.“Wait here. I’ll go and get your mother.”Then, Lisa went to look for Rosalie.Rosalie was busy with her research project and was already preparing to leave the house to work.When she heard that the little ones were not feeling well, she put down her bag and hurried upstairs into the little ones’ room.“Nanny Lisa said you weren’t feeling well. What’s wrong?”Nox pounced into Rosalie’s embrace. “Mommy, I
When the little ones slipped out of the villa successfully, the first thing they did was hail a taxi by the roadside.The driver saw the two kids and was a little worried about giving them a ride.However, when the driver heard where the two little ones were heading and looked at the neighborhood they had come out of, he started his car engine.He thought he would make plenty of money on this trip since the two little ones’ parents were wealthy.The little boys had no idea what the driver was thinking. They were wondering what their daddy would say when he saw them.After a while, the car pulled over at Lawrence Manor.The driver looked longingly at the door, waiting for the people inside to come out and give him money.Lucian, however, had already taken out a hundred bucks from his backpack and handed it over, “Keep the change.”The meter showed 60 bucks, but the boy was so anxious about Estie that he did not want change.The driver froze and wanted to say it was too little.
Lucian frowned. “Do you know where Mr. Byron went with Estie?”Mrs. Zora hesitated for a while. In the end, she gave in and said, “Maybe Master took her back to the Lawrence family’s mansion.”Last night, she seemed to hear Byron speaking on the phone with Mrs. Lawrence.She might have asked Master to send Little Lady to her place, and he seemed to have agreed.The two little ones looked disappointed.Lucian asked tentatively, “Where is the Lawrence family’s mansion? Can you tell us?”Mrs. Zora knew they wanted to look for Estelle there from their question.It was so far from their place.She did not know how the two little ones got from their home to here, but Mrs. Zora would not let them go to the Lawrence family’s mansion alone.“I know, but I can’t tell you.”Then, Mrs. Zora beckoned the bodyguards to release the little ones. She said, “You must have come secretly without Miss Jacobs permission. Go back home quickly. She’ll be worried if she notices you’re gone.”The lit
The thugs were shocked when they heard the woman’s request, and they looked at the stack of money in their hands.“Are you sure it’s two kids?”They suspected Wendy was tricking them, and she might be hiding the fact that the two people they were about to beat up were experts in martial arts.Unexpectedly, the woman in front of them frowned impatiently. “Can you do it or not? If you can’t, then forget it!”The thugs immediately agreed and pointed in the direction Wendy told them. “They’re over there, right? We’ll go at once!”Then, they strode to where Lucian and Nox were in.Looking at the thugs leaving and thinking about the pain those two kids were about to suffer, Wendy was pleased.Meanwhile, the two little ones had no idea what kind of trouble they were about to face.Nox said gloomily, “Lucian, are we not going to see Estelle anymore?”Estelle was now in the Lawrence family’s mansion, and they did not know where it was.Even with Nox’s hacking skills, he would not know
A roar came from the group of guys.“Damn it! The little brat even dares to fight back!” The guy covered his eyes in pain and looked at Lucian, who was angrily throwing stones at his eyes.The few other guys remained on guard.Unexpectedly, they had seen through the trick of the two little ones, yet the little ones still dared to fight back.The two little ones grabbed the stones on the ground and threw them at those guys.The guys instinctively dodged when they saw stones flying toward them. They were afraid they would hit their eyes.Soon, there were gaps between where the guys were standing. Quickly, Lucian stuffed a few stones in Nox’s hand. Then, they escaped through the gap.Behind them, the boys realized they had escaped and chased after them.Lucian threw stones at those guys as they ran to slow down those guys.The two little ones ran as hard as they could to get to the crowd.Finally, they arrived at the square. The young thugs did not dare to chase after them a
After a while, the little ones strolled down the stairs.The little ones feared their mommy would notice their injuries and changed into long-sleeved pajamas.Rosalie was already sitting at the table. She watched the little ones approaching her when suddenly she noticed that something seemed wrong.After staring at Nox for a long time, Rosalie frowned and asked, “Nox, what happened to your hand?”The little one’s palm had a visible scratch wound.Hearing his Mommy’s question, Nox froze and looked at his palm when he saw Rosalie looking at it.Noticing the injury, Nox subconsciously looked at Lucian.Lucian frowned.Nox must have gotten a scratch on his palm when the guys threw them on the ground.However, he never expected Nox’s injury to be in such a visible area.Rosalie soon realized something was wrong. “Lisa said you slept all day. Did you sneak out?”She knew her little ones better than anyone.Besides that possibility, Rosalie could not think why the two boys would s
“Mommy...”The little ones anxiously lay on Rosalie’s knee. “We’re fine. Don’t worry.”Rosalie held the little ones’ hands and looked at the wounds on their arms. Her expression was gloomy.“I know you want to see Estie, and I won’t blame you for it. However, why would you lie to me about your injuries?”She could see that it had been more than a fall.Besides, there was no way two little ones would fall together like that.The boys saw that their mommy was about to cry.Nox looked at his brother guiltily and muttered, “We met a few big guys on the road. They chased after us.”Then, he quickly explained, “Thanks to Lucian, who protected me, we managed to escape and ran back safely.”Since Nox had confessed, Lucian took responsibility for the whole matter. “Mommy, it’s my fault. I insisted on taking Nox out.”Rosalie looked at them. “Why did they want to chase you? Were they after your money?”Lucian wanted to explain, but Nox blurted out everything, “No. Lucian offered to gi
