At the same time…Rosalie had a habit of watching the news over breakfast. She took care of the three children while keeping an ear out for the news broadcast."The engagement between the Lawrences and Fullers has lasted for six long years. Now, we finally have confirmation that the marriage will take place in the near future," said a man's voice.Rosalie paused halfway through filling the children's plates. After a few seconds of silence, she continued as though nothing had happened. Meanwhile, Lucian and Nox immediately lost their appetite. Their expressions crumpled.While they were abroad, they had been curious about their father too. They could not wait to see him. After they returned to the country and realized that their Daddy had another child, the two boys resented him for it. They even hated him for abandoning their mother. Once they had gotten to know him better, though, they noticed that Daddy was not as cruel and heartless to Mommy as they had thought. In fact, h
Byron vaguely heard the sound of the news broadcast inside and knew that Rosalie should have also listened to the news. He frowned and tried to read her expression, but he did not notice anything amiss. After a long while, she said in a deep voice, "I've come to see Estie, how is she?" Rosalie stepped sideways to make way for him, "She's upstairs. You came just in time; I also have something to tell you about Estie." The two walked into the living room. Rosalie asked Byron to sit down on the sofa, while she sat on the single-seater beside him. Mrs. Zora quickly poured tea for the two of them. Seeing that they had something to say, she left quickly. "What's the matter?" Byron saw Rosalie's face, and his heart sank. Rosalie said indifferently, “I promised to let Estie live here before because of Estie's condition. In the past two days, Estie's condition has been much better. She has even learned to speak recently, and it is considered a great improvement. I think she no longe
After a long silence, Byron broke the silence coldly, "As you wish." Rosalie nodded and went upstairs to tell Estie to come down. The three children were in Lucian and Nox's bedroom and looked dejected. The atmosphere in the bedroom was somber. Lucian and Nox were playing with a robot in their hands, while Estie buried her face in her doll's stomach. They were all staring into space. The three children looked over in unison when they heard the door opening. Rosalie's heart softened when she met the children’s hopeful gazes. Thinking of the man downstairs, she steeled her heart and said softly, "Estie, your father is here to pick you up." Hearing this, the three children were all stunned. Estie opened her eyes blankly and hugged the doll in her arms. Rosalie lowered her eyes and repeated awkwardly, "Your father is waiting downstairs, come down quickly." After speaking, she waited silently at the door. "Auntie..." Estie's timid voice piped up reluctantly. Rosalie fo
The door of the house slowly closed, and Estie disappeared from Rosalie's sight. Rosalie took a deep breath and suppressed her sudden tears. Her heart was full of reluctance at the thought of parting with the little girl. During this time, it was clear that Estie had taken a liking to them. What was more, her condition had improved rapidly after staying with them. If possible, Rosalie also wanted to take care of the little girl until her condition improved, and she looked forward to nothing more than a single coherent sentence from her. However, such an opportunity no longer existed... Lucian and Nox followed them downstairs and saw that their Mommy wanted to send little Estie away. Although they were reluctant, they did not say anything. Seeing that their Mommy was so sad now, the boys burrowed into Rosalie's arms, hugging her from both sides as they comforted her, "Don't be sad, Mommy, we will always be with you!" Rosalie felt the softness in her arms, and her heart slo
"If nothing unexpected happens, I can spare some time tomorrow to examine the patient's condition." Rosalie thought about her work schedule for the past few days and made this suggestion. Leon came back to his senses, nodded quickly, and agreed, "Okay, thank you for your help. If you need anything in the future, feel free to ask me." Rosalie smiled, "You have also helped me a lot when we were abroad, and it is a doctor's duty to treat patients. Since you think I am capable, then I have an obligation." The two discussed briefly and set a time for Rosalie to see the patient. At noon the next day, Rosalie finished her work at the research institute, so she made an appointment with Leon to meet at the hospital gate. "I told my family in advance that no one but me will be on bedside duty today, so don't be stressed." After the meeting, Leon took her to the ward. On the hospital bed, the old man's hair had been shaved, and he was still in a coma. It was a sudden illness, so h
Before she knew it, the operation took more than seven hours. At the same time, almost all the children had left the kindergarten, and there were only three children left. Although Estie was no longer staying with them, Lucian and Nox treated her as usual in kindergarten. Seeing that no one came to pick her up, the two boys brought Estie to build a sandcastle in the sand pit and had a great time. When Byron arrived, he saw three children squatting on the sand, and the small playground in the kindergarten was full of their laughter. "Estie," When the three children finished laughing, Byron stepped forward and called his daughter. Estie looked at the two boys and reluctantly got up after a long time. Byron frowned and looked at Lucian and Nox, "Where's your mommy?" Although the two boys had decided that they did not like him anymore, they still stood up politely. Lucian pursed his lips and tilted his head to look at the small pile of sand they had just piled up, ignorin
When Rosalie came out of the operating theater, it was already dark. Seeing the sky outside, Rosalie suddenly remembered that she seemed to have missed the time to pick up the little ones. She only had time to change her clothes and hurried to the kindergarten. As she walked to the gate of the kindergarten, she could only see a man standing by the bench with one hand in his pocket from the distance. Three children surrounded each other, each holding a hamburger in their hands, bowing their heads down, and eating seriously. Rosalie paused at this sight. As if he felt her gaze on him, Byron raised his eyes and looked over, then lowered his head and said something to the children. The three children looked up at the same time and ran to her side with their unfinished hamburgers in hand. Rosalie crouched down apologetically and touched the heads of her sons, "I'm sorry, Mommy is late." Lucian and Nox had long been used to it, and they nodded forgivingly when they heard her ap
Back at the villa, Lisa was waiting for them to return home. The dinner she had prepared was ready for a long time, but there was no sight of them. When she finally saw them entering the door, she stepped forward with a worried look on her face, "Miss, why are you so late today?" Rosalie forced a smile, "It's nothing. I had to work a little late, that’s why. I’ll leave the children in your care. I'm a little tired, so I'll go to bed first." Seeing that her face was very haggard, Lisa hurriedly agreed. Rosalie exchanged a few words with the two boys and then went back to her room. The next morning, Lisa prepared breakfast as usual, but Rosalie did not come down. However, the two boys went downstairs by themselves and even wash themselves up. "You guys eat first, I'll go take a look at your Mommy." Lisa felt a little worried when she thought of Rosalie's haggard appearance yesterday. Hearing that, the two boys stopped her and said, "No need, Mommy will be very tired every
