"Grandma said she called you, but you didn't answer..."Estie was still a little aggrieved.Hearing this, Lucian and Nox looked at Melody suspiciously.Since when did Grandma call them?On the contrary, all their calls to their little sister were hung up.Now that Estie’s eyes were swollen red from crying, the boys could not bear to tell her the truth. They just accommodated her question. "Our watch ran out of battery, and we just recharged it when we came back."With that, they took another look at Melody.Initially, Melody was worried that these two little boys would expose her lie. A look of surprise flashed across her eyes when she saw that they cooperated with her. She immediately turned cold again.‘They cooperated with me just to please me! I’m not so easy to please!’Thinking of this, Melody stepped forward and said to Estie, "Okay, you’re already home, and you've seen them both. Go and wash your face, your face is all messy with tears!"Estie looked at the two little
Estelle washed her face and saw only Lucian and Nox in the living room. She was in a puzzle.“Has Grandma left?”Lucian and Nox snapped out of their daze. They suppressed their sadness but could not hide it all. They nodded slowly, answering Estelle’s question.Looking at her brothers’ expressions, Estelle approached them seriously. “Did Grandma say something to you guys again?”She could see that her brothers seemed a little upset.Lucian smiled at Estelle, trying to appease her. “Nothing much. She asked us to take good care of you.”Then, he diverted the topic casually. “It’s already so late. Why aren’t Daddy and Mommy back yet?”Estelle’s focus was not on her brothers anymore when Lucian mentioned their parents. She stared at the door.When Mrs. Zora had prepared dinner, she saw that the kids seemed listless unlike how they were usually. They sat on the sofa gloomily as they stared at the door.“Young Masters, Little Lady, dinner is ready. Are you guys hungry? Do you want t
Mrs. Zora approached them and glanced at the little ones before explaining to Byron.“Madam Lawrence came this afternoon and took the kids out. Maybe they’re exhausted.”Lucian wanted to avoid mentioning this. However, since Mrs. Zora had told Byron and Rosalie, they could only nod their heads.This was something new, and it surprised Rosalie, making her ponder.‘Melody took the children out?‘She has hated Lucian and Nox all this while. Even if she wanted to take anyone out, she would only take Estelle. Why would she take even the little boys?‘Moreover, the three kids look unhappy…’Rosalie frowned and wanted to ask something, but Byron was around. If Melody did something overboard, she would only be putting Byron in a difficult situation.Upon thinking this, Rosalie gave up on asking anything and touched the kids’ heads, trying to comfort them. “Let’s go to bed early after dinner if you’re tired.”Then, she took the kids to wash their hands and seated them by the dining tab
Rosalie also felt the little ones were acting strangely, but she decided to ask them when Byron was not around.After dinner, Rosalie wanted to take the kids out, but Byron told her, “I wonder how things are going on Andrius’ side. Why don’t you give him a call?”Rosalie hesitated when Byron mentioned the medicinal material supplier. In the end, she decided to call Andrius first after pondering for a while.As for the kids, she could ask them about what happened today when she put them to bed.Then, she headed to the study to call Andrius.Meanwhile, Andrius was flustered to receive a call from Rosalie. He thought it was Byron who asked her to urge him, and he quickly explained. Then, he asked about the progress of Rosalie and Byron’s relationship.They both talked for some time on the phone.Downstairs, the three kids realized something felt wrong and tried to escape. “Daddy, we want to play in the yard.”As they spoke, they slowly crept to the yard.Byron’s forehead puckered
Byron felt sorry for Lucian and Nox upon hearing it.The place the little boys took the taxi to before this was the manor they lived in now.He recalled the time when Lucian came looking for Estelle. The teenagers almost beat them up, and Byron’s displeasure with his mother’s act grew.The two boys were still young. They were still Estelle’s friends and half-brothers, even if they were not his sons like he had announced to the public.However, his mother was so mean that she could dump the two kids in the amusement park.Fortunately, nothing happened to the boys. If anything had happened to them…Byron would not know how to explain himself to Rosalie.Upon thinking of the danger the boys might have faced, Byron was afraid.“We’re smart, Daddy. The driver was also a nice person. He didn’t want to take our money at first…”Lucian noticed Byron’s anger and appeased him.Looking at the kids speaking up for his mother, Byron felt terrible and hugged them.“I’m sorry that Grandma
At the same time, Byron pulled over the car outside the Lawrence family’s mansion.The butler opened the gate quickly. “Sir.”Byron asked expressionlessly, “Where’s my mother?”The butler answered, “Mrs. Lawrence has just had her dinner and is having her tea now in the living room.”Byron nodded and told the butler not to follow him. Then, he strode into the mansion.Just as he entered the mansion, he saw Melody sitting on the sofa and drinking her tea as she watched the TV.“Why are you here?”Melody heard the footsteps from the door and turned around.When she saw her son, she looked startled. The first thought that struck her mind was that the two bastards must have complained to her son.Byron stood before her and turned off the TV.Melody’s face was ashen when she saw that her son seemed mad. “Are you here to question me?”Byron asked expressionlessly, “Why did you leave Lucian and Nox alone at the amusement park this afternoon?”With a frown, Melody spoke up for herse
Rosalie failed to get any information about that afternoon from her children.Lucian and Nox were afraid she might be persistent and quickly requested to play games.With that, Rosalie could not continue asking and had to play with them instead.Soon, the four were having fun in the living room.When Byron was back, Rosalie and the little ones were still playing.“Have you settled what you went out for?”Noticing Byron’s cold expression, Rosalie asked with concern.The kids were obedient and immediately remained silent.Byron nodded as he glanced at Lucian and Nox. However, looking at them reminded him of what his mother had said just now, making him feel sorry for them.“Daddy, come join us!”The little boys could see their daddy was blaming himself and tried to comfort him by grabbing his hand.Byron was startled for a few seconds before holding their hands as he walked to Rosalie’s side with them.Then, the two adults accompanied the kids by playing with them.Looking a
After having a long passionate moment in the bathroom, Byron was finally done, yet Rosalie was so exhausted that she almost passed out.Byron carried her out of the bathroom and had the second round of pleasure until midnight.The following day, Rosalie felt that her bones were about to fall apart when she woke up.The man was not beside her. She had no idea where he went.Rosalie endured the pain as she got up. The idea of sleeping in separate rooms with Byron flashed across her mind again.“You’re awake?”Byron opened the door suddenly.Shocked, Rosalie felt her legs turn to jelly, and she almost fell.Fortunately, Byron reacted fast enough and held her waist before she fell.Rosalie was wearing a low-cut night dress. It was Byron who changed her into this last night.As she lowered her body, her loose collar revealed her fair chest and the hickeys Byron printed on her.One glance at it made Byron’s desire rise.Rosalie, in his embrace, was relieved that she did not fall.
