At the same time, Lawrence Mansion.Melody and Benedict were ready to go to sleep when they suddenly heard the doorbell ringing loudly. They hurried to open the door.The moment they opened the door, they saw Henry and Magdalene Fuller standing there with apologetic expressions. Wendy was behind them with red eyes."What's the matter?" Melody asked, puzzled when she saw their appearances.Magdalene turned to stare at Wendy.Wendy’s eyes were red, and her face was filled with remorse. Even her voice was a little hoarse, "Aunt Melody, I'm here to apologize."Melody was even more puzzled when she heard this. She invited all three of them in to sit down on the sofa and asked someone to pour them some tea before she asked, "What happened? Why are you apologizing out of nowhere?"Wendy lowered her head, not daring to look at her. "Yesterday morning, you persuaded Estelle to get into my car. I thought Estie would get into the car obediently and I’d send her to kindergarten smoothly, bu
Hearing this, Melody's expression changed again. "Wendy, what are you saying? Things have long been impossible between Byron and that woman. I’ve also asked, and Byron said he had no such plans. You shouldn’t even mention it!” Wendy still bowed her head and sobbed. "But Estelle is now staying by Rosalie’s side every day. These days, she’s even living in Rosalie's house. Estelle likes her very much. If Byron doesn’t have those intentions, why would he leave Estelle to her..."Although Byron had taught her a lesson, she still sent someone to monitor Rosalie's movements.Learning that Estie was staying at Rosalie's house, Wendy panicked and revealed everything to her parents. Her father brought her over to apologize after lecturing her.Seeing that Melody had forgiven her, she could not help tattling to her.Melody did not expect Byron to hand Estie over to the woman. At that moment, she was furious. "Nonsense! Who allowed him to do this?!"She forced her anger down after saying th
Rosalie saw her sit down on the sofa. She turned to close the door, then sat down on the single-seater sofa. She looked at the person in front of her neither humbly nor haughtily. "You’re here early in the morning, Mrs. Lawrence. Is something the matter?"Melody went straight to the point. "I came here today to tell you to distance yourself from Byron and not to get any ideas about Estie. She has nothing to do with you. Since you chose to have a divorce and leave, you have no right to come back."Hearing her words, Rosalie could not help finding things a little ridiculous. She calmly responded, "Don't worry, I had no thoughts about returning when I chose to leave back then.”"Is that so?" Melody sneered. "Then how do you explain your meeting with Byron? And why is Estelle here?"Melody looked at the woman in front of her with disdain after she said that.She said she would never come back but it was all to butter them up. What duplicity!Rosalie frowned slightly and toughened her
Seeing the little lady crying like this, Mrs. Zora hurried forward and urged, "Madam, the little lady’s condition has been acting up these two days. She was also beaten by Miss Fuller, and her condition has just improved. She’s still unstable, don't scare her."Mrs. Zora had spent the night thinking about it and could guess who had laid hands on the little lady. Now, in order to persuade the madam, she bit the bullet and voiced her guess.Melody, however, was unconvinced. "Wendy already told me about this. Estie was being disobedient, so Wendy just taught her a lesson in haste. She has already apologized to me. As for Estelle, Wendy will be her stepmother in the future. Estelle, you can’t be so mischievous."Hearing what the madam said, Mrs. Zora could say nothing more. She just looked at Estie with a hurt gaze.The little one had just come out of her own world, and now, she was crying like this. Mrs. Zora was afraid that she would regress to how she was yesterday.Hearing their c
Hearing his mother's words, Byron nodded noncommittally.Melody thought he had agreed, so she was about to turn around and take her granddaughter away when she heard Byron's voice from behind her."You’re probably not aware of how Estelle has been these two days."Hearing this, Melody’s steps halted. She had heard from Mrs. Zora that her granddaughter had a breakdown these two days, but it was unclear how things had been exactly."Estelle's breakdown this time was worse than ever. Even Lucas had been helpless. Only by Rosalie's side was Estelle like a normal child. Moreover, because of Rosalie, Estelle even started speaking a few days ago. Would you dare imagine if it were back then?" Byron asked in a deep voice.Estie spoke!Melody's heart was full of shock.She had been ready for her little granddaughter to not speak her entire life. Who would have expected that Estie would speak because of that woman!Seeing his mother's surprise, Byron continued, "I was also surprised, but
What Melody was suggesting was obvious. She still hoped that he would be with Wendy.He had been listening to the same persuasion for the past six years.Byron frowned, slightly impatient. "I'll see to it. Don't interfere."Melody was also a little unhappy. "You’ll see to it? Are you really going to break off your engagement with Wendy?"She waited for a bit but Byron did not answer. Melody's expression sank, and her tone hardened. "Regardless, since you personally agreed to a marriage with the Fullers back then, I won't allow you to break it off so easily now. Wendy has been waiting for you for so many years, so you can't let her down. I won't allow the marriage to dissolve, and you won’t mention it again in the future!"With that, Melody glanced at her son calmly before turning around and staring at the villa gate as if she could see Rosalie inside through the gate. Finally, she withdrew her gaze and strode away with a dissatisfied expression.Seeing his mother's figure disappe
After Melody left Rosalie's house, she still gave Wendy a call after some contemplation during the journey back. On the other end, Wendy saw her phone ringing early in the morning and was a little puzzled."Wendy, I've talked to Byron. You said before that Byron wanted to terminate his engagement with you, but he won't mention it again." Although this was only a one-sided request from her, her son had not refused. Hence, Melody immediately conveyed it like it was. Hearing this, Wendy was happy. "Is that true, Aunt Melody?"After saying that, she pretended to be aggrieved and continued asking, "But what about Rosalie? She seems very close to Byron. Estelle also likes her..."At the mention of Rosalie, Melody's tone sank. "Don't worry about her. Byron's future wife can only be you! As for Estelle, she’s still a child at the end of the day. You should be more patient with her. We'll let the matter slide this time, but you can't do it again in the future!"Wendy obediently promise
Byron did not come the next morning, so Rosalie sent the three children to the kindergarten herself. Miss Leigh Ann was waiting at the door and was surprised to see that she was alone. "Miss Jacobs, why are you alone today?"Hearing this, Rosalie could not help but be stunned.She had dropped the children off with Byron the past two days. She did not expect the teacher to notice it nor ask her about it straight to her face today. It looked like she had a close relationship with Byron.Rosalie did not know how to answer for a while.Estie had already taken out a small notebook to write an answer in it. [I live in Aunt’s house now!]The little one held up the notebook and smiled happily, her eyes in crescents. Miss Leigh Ann recalled how soulless the child had looked in the past two days. Seeing her happy appearance now, she could not help but smile as she reached out to caress Estie's head. "I see!"With that, she looked up at Rosalie who was in front of her and sighed inter
