Only then did Rosalie snap out of her thoughts.The salesman smiled and said, “I don’t have to get any other size. Your figure is almost the same as the mannequin. If you don’t mind, I can take the clothes on the mannequin for you to try on.”Byron turned around to get Rosalie’s opinion, making him look like a hen-pecked husband.The salesman understood his intention and waited patiently for Rosalie’s answer.Feeling shy when she realized what was happening, Rosalie nodded with a smile.The salesman took the suit and asked one of the staff to lead Byron to the fitting room. Meanwhile, he took Rosalie around the store and introduced her to each suit they had. Then, he observed which of the suit she looked at for the longest time.A moment later, Byron walked out of the dressing room, wearing a smoke-gray shirt and a black suit. His back was straight, and his shoulders were broad.When he got out, he went straight to Rosalie without looking into a mirror. “How about this? Do you t
Rosalie looked at the salesman embarrassedly as soon as she said that.The salesman obviously heard her but did not say anything. Instead, he smiled politely at her.Byron looked at Rosalie’s panicked expression lovingly.After a while, the staff came over with the packed clothes.Byron took the clothes from the staff and told Rosalie, “I’ll take them. Rosie, you can get me the one I’m wearing now.”Then, he smiled and waited for Rosalie to answer him.Rosalie’s regret was not getting a chance to get Byron a suit six years ago. She would accept it now since Byron was allowing her to do so.Byron wanted to test the rest of the clothes, but Rosalie stopped him. “Never mind…”She glanced sheepishly at the salesman and the staff as she whispered to Byron, “You can put them on when we get back home and show me.”As if displeased that she could not immediately see him in other clothes, Byron paused for a few seconds before nodding.Then, they went to pay for the clothes.After sho
Rosalie and Byron had almost shopped at every store in the mall.In a restaurant they did not notice, Alistair was sitting by the window and looking at them with interest.If he was not mistaken, the woman beside Byron was Rosalie, the former Mrs. Lawrence.“Have you found out the background of that woman?”Opposite him, a man sat down respectfully, and Alistair turned around and asked.Nodding slightly, the assistant took a document from his bag and pushed it to Alistair.“According to the investigation, Byron’s ex-wife left silently six years ago and only recently returned from abroad. As soon as she returned to the country, she met Byron, and it seemed that Byron has been pestering her since then.”Hearing this, Alistair seemed interested and stared at the woman not far away. “That woman? She’s beautiful, but so many beautiful women are interested in Byron. What makes her special?”Pester.It was not a word that seemed appropriate to describe Byron.The assistant continued
Byron frowned slightly and checked his phone notifications.There were messages.“Are you sure?” he asked Rosalie for confirmation.Rosalie shook her head hesitantly. “Maybe… I was just imagining things. I don’t seem to recall anything weird.”Byron hugged her and comforted her. “Feel free to tell me if you sense anything weird. Don’t be afraid. I’m by your side, and I’ll ensure your safety.”Rosalie smiled and leaned on his chest.A moment later, the elevator stopped at the top of the mall.Byron and Rosalie walked into the cinema.Habitually, Rosalie wanted to go and get the tickets, but Byron headed straight to the ticket-checking point instead. After he informed the staff, he turned around and looked at Rosalie.She froze for a few seconds before following him. “Don’t we have to get the tickets?”Meanwhile, the staff smiled and explained, “This gentleman has booked the cinema for the evening. You can just inform us whenever you want to watch the movie.”Rosalie was dumbs
Rosalie was angry when she watched the movie, but felt she was making a fuss when she walked out of the movie theater.“It’s alright. It’s my occupational habit. They’re only filming a movie, and its theme is clear. There’s no need to mind about trivial matters like this.”However, Byron felt sorry and said, “I thought you would like this kind of movie. Let’s watch some other movie the next time.”Something struck Rosalie’s mind, and she quipped, “Why don’t we watch a business film the next time? I’d like to listen to your explanation about business too.”Byron was pleased to hear Rosalie teasing him and agreed. “Sure. I’m willing to watch any movie with you.”Rosalie felt a little guilty upon seeing him agreeing so soon. “Forget it. One unpleasant experience is enough. Let’s watch another movie that has nothing to do with our professions next time.”Byron glanced at her.Their eyes met, and they smiled.It was nine o’clock in the evening when they got back to the manor.They
Byron looked into her eyes and even showed a glimpse of grievance as though he was complaining to Rosalie that Estelle had wronged himRosalie retracted her gaze helplessly and carried Estelle. “Come on. Mommy will help you try on these dresses.”Estelle hugged Rosalie’s neck lovingly.They had just turned toward the stairs when they heard a noise upstairs.“Be careful not to break those things.”Melody’s slightly dissatisfied voice came from above.Rosalie glanced upstairs, puzzled.All she saw was Mrs. Zora ordering the maids to move the items down the stairs while Melody followed them.Looking at the people downstairs, Melody’s face was ashen.Rosalie carefully put Estelle back on the sofa and looked at Byron, trying to ask for an explanation.Instead, Byron glanced at his mother and asked, “Mom, why are you moving out late at night? Can’t you move tomorrow?”Melody snorted. “Stop being pretentious! I’m sure you want me to move out soon, so I won’t be an eyesore here.”T
“What are you doing out here?”Looking at her son following her, she thought he was going to apologize.After all, it was disgraceful for a son to ask his mother to move out of his house.However, Byron took the bag in her hand and placed it in the car. Then, he turned around and looked at her disapprovingly.“I’ve told you that Rosie is my wife. I hope you can be respectful to her. I believe that from the bottom of her heart, she also hopes this family will be harmonious.”Melody’s expression turned gloomy upon hearing his apparent rebuke. “Respect her? Who will respect me, then? My son asked me to move out of the house at night, and I have to be nice to her even after this?”With a frown, Byron said, “You’ve been staying in the Lawrence family’s mansion, yet you came here on purpose to look for trouble. I was just suggesting you return to your mansion. You were the one who chose to move out at night.”It was out of Byron’s expectation that Melody would move out of the manor.
"Mommy, let's go try on clothes!"Estie saw that her mommy was in a bad mood, so she gently tugged at her hand.Rosalie looked down at the little girl, knowing Estie was trying to divert her attention. She nodded cooperatively before leading the little girl upstairs.Lucian and Nox began to study various functions of the computer."What do you want to learn? I can teach you." Byron sat down next to the two little boys and took the initiative to get closer to them.The two little guys were about to log in to their respective accounts. When they saw their daddy sitting down, they stopped, silently fearing that they would be exposed.Lucian put on an innocent expression. "Daddy, what do you want to teach us? We want to learn everything!"Byron thought about the two little boys’ age but could not think of anything suitable for them to learn.He had no choice but to say, "Let me teach you some simple programming." He was the one who had suggested teaching them something and the two
