Chapter 277 Cannot Help Feeling Worried
Byron walked toward the mountain with large strides after coming out of the hotel. He called Luther while walking. “Ask them to pay more attention while searching. Rosalie went into the mountain as well.” Luther agreed to his requests at once. He admired Miss Jacobs for being so concerned over the little lady to the extent that she even entered the mountain alone to look for the child.After hanging up on the call, a weak and fearful voice rang out by the side of Byron’s ear. “Byron, is there any news about Estie?” Wendy had searched nearby for some time, but she could not find signs of anyone. She did not dare to enter the forest in the mountain either. Therefore, she chose to return. However, she did not expect to meet Byron at the entrance. She felt extremely guilty. After hearing what she said, Byron kept his phone and glanced at her with a cold expression on his face. Wendy was still in her red dress. Her dress was clean and crisp. There was not a single dro
Chapter 278 Hurry Up And Look For Her
The forest was extremely dark and dense. Other than the light from the torchlights, only the faint moonlight lit up their surroundings in the darkness. Rosalie walked through the forest cautiously. She did not know where she was. She only knew that Estie was not in any of the places that she had walked through. She had seen the messages in the WhatsApp group while sending the two children back just now. None of the parents had seen Estie. The forest was the only place left. No one had searched the forest yet. If the little girl was really in here… The more Rosalie thought about it, the more frightened she felt. Even she felt terrified in such an environment. Estie was just a child. How would she feel?If Estie did not head out to look for her, she would not have run into this place.At this thought, Rosalie gritted her teeth and quickened her pace. She must find the little girl as soon as possible. “Estie! Where are you?” Rosalie called out Estie’s name loudl
Chapter 279 Drowning in Guilt
“Estie, is that you?” The cries that Rosalie had heard grew clearer. Her expectations grew as well. Estie stopped crying after hearing the pretty aunt’s voice. “A-Aunt?” Rosalie let out a sigh of relief after hearing her voice. She quickly walked in the direction of Estie’s voice.She had just taken a few steps forward when she slipped. Rosalie’s heart lurched as she held onto a nearby tree for support. She managed to stabilize herself. She lowered her head and caught sight of a deep pit covered by grass and some logs. Estie was curled up at the bottom of the pit. “Estie?” Rosalie’s heart hurt when she saw the little girl. A ray of light shone from above the crater. Estie raised her head and looked up. The pretty aunt was looking at her with a look of relief on her face. “It’s alright, I’m here.” Rosalie felt guiltier when she got a clear view of Estie’s face. However, she did not dare to express her guilt as she did not want Estie to feel afraid. Estie’
Chapter 280 Hugging Her
Rosalie patted Estie’s back and tried her best to comfort her. However, Estie’s cries grew softer and weaker. “Estie?” Rosalie lowered her eyes to cast a worried glance at her. Estie had passed out from crying. There were still tears in the corners of her eyes.Rosalie’s heart hurt so much that she could not catch her breath when she saw Estie in such a state. It was so cold at night, and Estie was dressed in such thin clothes. She could not remain in such a state. She had to think of a way to get both of them up!With this thought in mind, Rosalie took off her coat and wrapped Estie in it. She came up with an idea.No matter how much she tried, she could not climb out of the pit. She had almost used up all of her energy. After trying a few times, Rosalie stopped her actions in desperation. She wrapped her arms around Estie to warm her up. The night breeze billowed through the forest. Soft rustles rang out in the forest. However, there were no human sounds
Chapter 281 Everything Is Fine, Don’t Worry
Rosalie wanted to tell Byron that she could do it herself, but he had tightened his hold on her. “Don’t move. Otherwise, it won’t be easy for me to go up.” Byron’s deep voice was rather husky. After hearing his voice, an odd feeling flashed across Rosalie’s heart. She remained silent and let him carry her up. As soon as Byron pulled her up, Rosalie immediately struggled to get out of his arms.“M-Miss Jacobs, you treat Little Lady so well,” Luther could not help but exclaim in admiration. He was extremely shocked when he saw Rosalie sitting at the bottom of the pit with Estie in her arms. He was already taken aback by the fact that Rosalie was willing to enter the depths of the forest in this mountain so late at night just for Estie’s sake. He did not expect her to find Estie in such a place before they did. If it were not for her, he did not know how long they would spend looking for Estie. Rosalie pursed her lips and smiled. “It’s my obligation.” Byron cast his h
Chapter 282 Accompanying You Here
The doctors examined Estie and confirmed that she was not injured anywhere else other than the few scratches on her body. Rosalie then let out a sigh of relief. However, Byron still felt extremely worried. He got Estie hospitalized for the night so that she could receive all relevant examinations. Rosalie turned around and bade everyone farewell upon noticing that it was getting late. “Since Estie is fine, I’ll bring the kids back to rest. Contact me anytime if you need anything.” After speaking, she turned around and walked out.Byron grabbed onto her wrist as soon as she walked to his side. Rosalie could not help but take in a sharp intake of breath. “Examine her as well,” Byron told the doctor while grabbing onto her wrist. After hearing what he said, Rosalie turned around and rejected his offer. “It’s fine. I know that I’m not injured. I just want to rest at home right now.”Byron did not let go of her. Rosalie had no choice but to do as he said. She walked
Chapter 283 Disregarding It
At the same time, in the Lawrence family’s mansion. After Byron sent Wendy away in the evening, she returned and looked for Melody straight away. Melody thought that there was finally news about Estie after seeing Wendy. She asked her at once, “Why did you come back? Did you manage to find Estie?” Wendy shook her head in a distraught manner. An accusatory expression formed on Melody’s face upon seeing Wendy’s gestures. “Why did you come back when Estie hasn’t been found yet? Don’t you know how to help the others look for her?” Regardless of how much she took Wendy’s side, Wendy had gone overboard this time around. After hearing what she said, a guilty expression appeared on Wendy’s face. “Aunt, I wanted to help them look for her, but—” “But what?!” Melody asked her angrily. Wendy raised her eyes. Tears welled up in her eyes as she looked at Melody pitifully. “However, Byron blamed me for not taking good care of Estie and asked me to scram. He looked extremely panic
Chapter 284 I Didn’t Look After Her Well
After eating, Byron asked Luther to send Lucian and Nox back home to rest. He stayed back in the ward with Rosalie to accompany Estie.Rosalie was still worried about Estie. Also, Estie had received a huge shock, and she kept grabbing onto the hem of Rosalie’s shirt without the intention to let go. Rosalie’s gaze was full of guilt when she saw Estie’s pale little face. She caressed Estie’s face and apologized to her, “I shouldn’t have rejected your offer in the evening. I’m sorry.” Estie shook her head soundlessly.However, Rosalie could not get over the guilt in her heart. She was in extremely low spirits. She had been feeling terribly regretful ever since finding out that Estie had gone missing. She felt even worse now that she knew that Estie was suffering from psychological trauma. Rosalie felt so heavy-hearted that she could not catch her breath. “It has nothing to do with you.” Byron frowned slightly when he heard Rosalie blaming herself. Rosalie squeezed out
