Byron had yet to mention to her about the wedding.Rosalie was shocked to hear that and looked at the person beside her. She had no idea how she should react to that.The man grabbed her hand that was hanging by the side of her body.Rosalie was startled for a moment before she held his hand.Melody was already pissed off upon hearing her son’s words. She almost passed out when she saw them holding hands.“Estie, come to Grandma.”She could not convince her son, but she could try taking her granddaughter away from them. “Grandma will put you to bed.”Estelle shook her head and grabbed Rosalie’s shirt. She clung onto her mommy and said, “Estie wants to be with Mommy.”Melody took a deep breath and suppressed her anger. “Don’t you want Grandma and Grandpa anymore?”Upon hearing her question, the little girl was a little aggrieved and carefully looked at Daddy and Mommy. “Can’t Estie have Daddy, Mommy, Grandma, and Grandpa?”Everyone was shocked to hear Estelle’s question.Melo
Byron suddenly lowered his head and got close to Rosalie's ear. "There’s a sofa in my room. You’ll take the bed, and I’ll sleep on the sofa. Can you rest assured now?"His warm breath tickled Rosalie's ears, turning them red. She consciously glanced at Mrs. Zora and the little ones beside her.Fortunately, they seemed to not hear anything."Mommy, we haven't had your breakfast for a long time..."Nox stared at her pitifully. The words ‘please stay’ were implicitly written all over his little face.Little Estie held onto the hem of her clothes tightly, unwilling to let her go.Although Lucian did not speak, he stared at her helplessly.Rosalie could not bear to refuse the little ones due to the look on their faces, so she just nodded her head in agreement.Once she agreed, Byron immediately turned to the three little ones. "It's getting late and your mommy has been tired all day. Let her rest early, and you should go to bed early too."After that, he dragged Rosalie upstairs an
Byron's footsteps paused slightly. He turned a corner and walked toward the bed.The little woman nestled drowsily on his bed, revealing most of her radiant-white delicate shoulders. Byron's eyes gradually darkened.Rosalie was still a little confused, and her voice was waxy. "What's the matter? Go wash up and get some rest."Byron's breathing gradually became heavy from her muddled expression, but there was still a bit of restraint in him.If Rosalie were completely awake, she would have noticed something strange and avoided him.Now, she was not only unaware, but she also looked up at the man, revealing her delicate neck in the most vulnerable way.Rosalie paused but got no response from Byron. She did not wait any longer, shifted the blanket, and wanted to lie down on the bed again.Suddenly, Byron leaned over and kissed her on the face.Rosalie was stunned for a few seconds before she realized that her sleepiness had dissipated.She looked back to see the man had turned ar
She could have refused when Byron asked her to dry his hair just now.Yet, his tone was so natural that it felt justified.They were sharing a room. He prepared matching pajamas for her. She helped him dry his hair...For some unknown reason, Rosalie could not refuse.Byron was too well-prepared.Almost everything happened naturally.…The first thing next morning, Rosalie felt that her bones were about to fall apart.She looked at the time. It was already past eight o'clock in the morning, an hour later than the alarm she had set.Enduring the pain, Rosalie grabbed the alarm clock and took a look.She saw that the alarm had already rung. Her best guess was that Byron had turned off the alarm clock while she was sleeping.Annoyed, Rosalie sat up from the bed. She made a face from the soreness in her lower back.Last night, they were up too late...Just when Rosalie got off the bed carefully, Mrs. Zora was outside the door. "Young Madam, are you up yet?"Rosalie held her f
Benedict was friendly toward her, and Rosalie was grateful for that. However, she remained cautious, afraid that she would lose her composure around him."You didn’t sleep well last night? Why do you seem tired?" Benedict said a word of concern in an easygoing manner.Rosalie's expression froze slightly thinking of what happened last night. Her tone sounded stiff. "I just came back, and I'm still not used to it. I didn't sleep well last night because I was busy with work during this period. I’ll be fine in a few days. "Benedict nodded in comprehension. "You young’uns. Work is important, but be mindful of your body too!"After that, he looked at the three little ones. "Alright, time’s up! Let’s eat!"The little ones nodded obediently. "Got it, Grandpa!"Benedict smiled. He felt great hearing how the little ones addressed him.Melody always talked badly about Rosalie and the two boys in front of him. Yet, Benedict was fond of them and felt that they were adorable.At first, Rosa
Rosalie was protective when it came to Lucian and Nox. Even when she had tried her best to restrain her temper, her tone was somewhat cold.Melody was silenced by the exchange. Her hand holding the cutlery paused in midair for a long time before she finally said, "Then you watch over your sons. They shouldn’t address others as they please!” Nox looked at Mommy, then at Grandma Melody opposite. He stood up to protect his mother without hesitation. "But Grandpa is also very happy with us calling him that. If you don't like us calling you grandma, we won't call you that. Isn’t that fine?"Melody’s face turned livid when this little boy dared to defy her, especially after she knew that he was right.The atmosphere at the dining table was tense.Rosalie was also a little surprised at the little boy's statement.However, she knew that the little boy was right. ‘Benedict and Melody are their grandparents, so it’s only natural for them to call Benedict Grandpa.’Thinking of this, Rosal
After breakfast, Benedict bid goodbye, then got up and left. Presumably, he must have gone to look for Melody.The three little ones were still eating, and Rosalie was with them."Whatever Grandma Melody says in the future, try not to talk back. Try to make Grandma Melody like you."She tried to communicate with the little ones.However, with that said, Rosalie felt that her requests seemed a little unrealistic.Some of Melody's words were too harsh even for her. How could she ask the two little boys to accept it?"We understand," Lucian nodded obediently, "Don't worry, Mommy. Nox felt what Grandma Melody said earlier was too much, he couldn't help but refute it. Moreover, what he said was not wrong."Nox nodded boldly to echo his brother standing up for him. "Grandma Melody doesn't like us calling her that, so we’ll stop calling her that!"Little Estie also nodded along seriously, expressing her support for her brothers.Rosalie smiled helplessly at how outspoken her kids wer
Byron's eyes flashed with distress when he heard the woman’s concerns. He tried to gently calm her down."You don't have to worry about this. I have already discussed with them, and they will go back soon."Rosalie was surprised. "When? How did you tell them?"Byron did not give a straight answer. "They’ve always lived in the old mansion; it’ll be more comfortable for them back there. If they insist on living with us, they are just asking for more discomfort."Rosalie did not ask further seeing that he was not going to explain. Somehow, she still felt uneasy about it. "However, I'm the outsider after all. If uncle and auntie go back because of me...""As long as you agree to my marriage proposal, we will be a family." Byron interrupted her, "As for my parents, you don't have to worry about them being dissatisfied with you, I’ll handle it."Rosalie shrank back as he brought up the proposal. "I believe you..."Then, she looked up at the time and sheepishly said, "It's getting late
