Chapter 262 Feeling Cranky
Early the next morning, the tree planting event began.Miss Leigh Ann waited for the parents and children to finish their meals, then led everyone to the event location.This time, the school was collaborating with the botanical garden, and the botanical garden had specially set aside an area of land for the children to plant their trees.A group of staff was already waiting for them at the site.Seeing the children’s tiny and adorable appearances made the staff members excited to work with them.Miss Leigh Ann introduced the staff members to the parents. Then, she divided the parents into groups and instructed them to follow the staff members to retrieve the saplings.Hearing that they were going to be grouped, Estie looked at Rosalie eagerly. She stood in place without moving even when the teacher called her name.With furrowed eyebrows, Byron followed Estie’s line of sight. His eyes landed on the woman standing not far away, then he frowned silently.Rosalie still had her mi
Chapter 263 I’m In The Same Group As Aunt
Rosalie took three saplings, figuring she would also plant a tree with the boys.The two boys took this event quite seriously. When they woke up early that morning, they were very excited as if they were going to participate in some major competition.Therefore, Rosalie did not want to disappoint them.After retrieving the saplings, the three of them began digging pits for the saplings under the guidance of the staff member.The two boys gave it their all.For today's event, Rosalie had intentionally changed to similar sportswear as the twins. Hence, she was currently having a relatively easy time moving around.Working together, the three of them finished digging the first pit in no time.Just as they were about to start on the next pit, a soft childlike voice suddenly sounded in their ears."Aunt!" Estie stood beside Rosalie excitedly.Hearing this, Rosalie paused her movements and looked at the little girl beside her in surprise. "Estie, why are you here?"If she remembere

Byron frowned. No matter which way he used it, he just could not figure out how to properly utilize this thing in his hands.Just as he was starting to feel annoyed, he noticed that a pair of eyes were looking at him softly.He looked up, and his eyes met Rosalie's smiling ones.When their eyes met, Rosalie immediately withdrew her gaze, and her expression became neutral again.Seeing this, Byron frowned, but the annoyance in his heart dissipated. He turned his head to a staff member and said, "I'm not really used to using this thing. Could you please show me how to use it?"The staff member had been watching from the sidelines for a while now. Although the man looked tall and strong, his posture was as stiff as ever when using the shovel. The staff member had wanted to tell him that he was doing it wrong, but the man gave off a somewhat distinguished vibe. When not talking, he exuded an aloof aura that made him difficult to approach. The staff member had tried speaking up several
Chapter 265 She Refused to Hug Her
As they talked, they were done planting the second tree sapling. Rosalie got up and took the third sapling. She then secured the sapling in the pit.A commotion was heard not very far away.“Miss Fuller, what are you doing here too?” Miss Leigh Ann was wandering around the kids. When she walked to the entrance, she saw someone walking toward her from afar and seemed a little shocked. Wendy was wearing an all-red dress. Her wavy curls were scattered across her chest. She had shades on and looked very noble. As she walked toward Miss Leigh Ann, she reached up to take off her shades and squinted her eyes to scan the crowd. “Byron said there’s a family activity here at the kindergarten today. I was worried about Estie, so I rushed here early in the morning. Where are they?” Miss Leigh Ann did not think much and pointed in Rosalie’s direction. “She’s there with Lucian and Nox. Estie had been getting along with them lately. She doesn’t even want to split from them when planting tre
Chapter 266 Silently Carried By Her
“Since Miss Fuller is here and Estie’s tree is already planted, you should bring them home, President Lawrence.” Rosalie did not want to gain any attention from the people here, so she indifferently interrupted Wendy’s words. Hearing this, Wendy stood up straight and looked at Byron with a smile on her face. Her purpose for coming here today was to not let Byron be together with Rosalie. Now that this woman suggested it, it was exactly what she was hoping for. Hearing what she had to say, the look in Byron’s eyes darkened. He frowned and glanced at her. “Miss Jacobs, you helped me and Estie plant the tree. I can’t just leave you guys here. There’s one more tree. Let’s plant it together.”Rosalie frowned a little, wanting to reject. Beside her, Estie timidly called out, “Aunt…”Hearing the little kid’s voice, Rosalie glanced back. Her heart ached a little when she saw the kid’s conflicted expression. Obviously, the kid was still traumatized by the last time Wendy laid her
Chapter 267 Was This Good For The Little Kid?
“What are you doing here?”Byron brought Wendy to the edge of the woods and asked with a blank expression.Hearing this, Wendy looked at the little one in her arms. “I was worried about Estie, so I came here to have a look. Don’t worry, I won’t cause you any trouble.”After she spoke, Byron’s cold, hard voice sounded again. “Since you’ve checked and Estie is doing well, you can go back now.”Wendy’s expression froze. “Byron, I came all the way here. You can’t possibly not even have a meal with me or something, right…?”After saying this, she lowered her head in remorse and muttered, “I know that you’re still blaming me for the last time I laid my hands on Estie, but I swear I didn’t mean it. All these years, I’ve always treated her as my own child. How can I even bring myself to harm her? Besides, you’ve taught me a lesson for what happened the last time. Please just forgive me.”When she brought up the time she hit Estie, Byron’s expression got even colder. “I’m not the person y
Chapter 268 Better Not Trouble Me
“Hmmph!”Nox also heard the praises for Wendy and snorted angrily. Rosalie snapped back into reality and asked the little guy with some confusion, “What’s wrong?”Nox poked the food on his plate and answered sullenly, “I don’t like that aunt.”Rosalie could not help but be stunned for a moment when she heard this. “Why?”The little guy had only met Wendy twice. Where did such a big prejudice come from?Nox looked up to see his Mommy and wanted to say it was because that woman wanted to marry Daddy and it was because of her that his dad left them behind.However, he remembered that Mommy did not know that he and Lucian knew about this. He puffed his mouth, swallowed the words he was about to say, and answered, “Because she’s mean to Estie and Estie doesn’t like her.” The mention of the kid made Rosalie’s heart ache a little, but she could not say anything. All she could do was placate them with a smile. “How could that be? She’s going to be Estie’s mother in the future. How co
Chapter 269 I Want To Go Back To The Room
“Aunt…”Rosalie’s figure disappeared from their sight. Estie’s head lowered in grievance as she spoke in a tearful voice, “Want Aunt…”Byron was unhappy because of what Rosalie said earlier. When he heard the little kid continuing to express her wish to be with that woman, he frowned slightly. “Aunt has her own children, Estie. You cant always disturb her.” Estie angrily looked up at her daddy. Byron frowned while looking at the little kid. The father and daughter had the same look of insistence on their faces. After staring at him for a while, Estie still could not beat her Daddy, so she lowered her head angrily. Fine. After all, they were staying in the same room. Aunt still had to go back and pack her stuff!At the thought of that, the little kid stopped crying and said to Daddy, “I want to go room.”Byron did not know the kid’s intention. He thought it might be because Rosalie was not there and the kid was not used to places with many people that she wanted to return
