Rosalie knew that Melody’s prejudice against her could no longer be reversed as the older woman had always been on her high horse, judging her. Well, there was no need to reverse her perceptions anyway since they would not have any contact in the future.Thinking of this, Rosalie's mood slowly calmed down. "Mrs. Lawrence, you can rest assured that not everyone is interested in your son. Or at least, I’m not interested in him. I only keep in contact with him for Estie’s sake. With your reminder this time, I’ll pay more attention in the future and stay away from President Lawrence."As for Wendy's injury, Rosalie was unsure if it was related to her. She decided not to mention it again.Melody scrutinized her for a long time as if to explore the truth of what she said.After a while, she frowned coldly. "That's for the best. You'd better remember what you said today."Rosalie nodded slightly. "If there’s nothing else, I have to go back to take care of my children, so I’ll leave first
Evidently, Melody had heard the conversation between the two.However, she had already decided that her son and Wendy Fuller would marry each other, and she had already warned Rosalie to stay in her lane.Therefore, Melody did not bother to interfere with the entanglement happening behind her. She just leisurely took a sip of coffee.Melody even had a disdainful smile on her face after hearing Rosalie's footsteps leaving.This was the case with disgraced, lowly women who could not get what they wanted. If one intimidated them a little, they would know their place. Such a woman could not be a part of the Lawrence family."Sit down." Only then did Melody turn her head to look at Byron. She motioned for him to sit down opposite her.Byron fumed and frowned, his eyes full of suppressed anger as he took a seat opposite his mother.The coffee in front of him was ordered by the woman just now. She obviously had not touched it.Thinking of what she said to his mother just now, the crea
Melody looked at Byron’s expression, and her heart gradually became cold.She knew her son all too well.The calmer Byron was, the more power his words held. It was not the first time he had told her not to interfere in the matter between him and that Jacobs woman.What position did this woman hold in his heart? How could her son show this attitude to her?Melody frowned and slowly calmed down before she gritted her teeth. "When you’re telling me this, what exactly do you take Wendy for? She’s been waiting for you for so long. Do you think you can disregard her with a single word? How is that woman better than Wendy? After that woman ruthlessly abandoned Estie, isn’t Wendy the one who’s been taking care of Estie with you for so many years? Whether it's you, Estie, or us elders, Wendy has been nothing but kind to us!”Byron's eyes were covered with a thin layer of frost. "Do you really think she’s done nothing wrong?”Hearing this, Melody was startled. She even subconsciously do
Byron meant every word he said. He would never marry Wendy.Hearing this, Melody only felt her temples throbbing violently. She raised her hand and pressed her temples as she looked at her son opposite her. "You came here early in the morning to piss me off, didn’t you?"Byron did not budge. "If you're feeling unwell, I can take you to the hospital now. However, if you still want to threaten me to marry Wendy, I can only say that it's impossible." The two sat in silence for a long time.Melody waved at him angrily. "Hurry up and go. Don't linger in front of me."Byron nodded noncommittally. Before leaving, he did not forget to say, "I’ve left someone at the door. You can tell them if you need anything."After speaking, he strode out of the cafe without waiting for Melody to respond."President Lawrence, are you going back to the company?" The driver asked respectfully when he saw him getting into the car.Byron paused. Rosalie's residence flashed in his mind.‘I wonder how
Due to Nox’s physical condition, although he felt better after taking his medications, Rosalie still insisted that he rested at home for another day. She asked for sick leave for the boys and got Lucian to stay home to accompany his brother.Meanwhile, Little Estie did not see the brothers in kindergarten for two days in a row, let alone the beautiful aunt. Hence, she became very depressed.Originally, under the influence of Lucian and Nox, the children in the class would play with her. However, for the past two days, the children began to alienate her again due to her resistance.During recess, Little Estie was sprawled on the table alone, looking at the seats of the two little brothers with a sullen look. She was hoping that they would suddenly appear."Estelle Lawrence, what are you doing?" A child could not help but come over and ask her a question.Little Estie, however, seemed to have not heard him and clawed at the table by herself."Come and play with us!" the child invit
Miss Leigh Ann had just entered the classroom when she heard the choking sounds of Estie’s sobs. She looked over quickly, only to see that the little girl was full of tears and crying hard."Estie, what's wrong?" The teacher walked quickly toward Estie.The little girl kept crying and said nothing.On the side, Rainer obediently got up and explained the situation to Miss Leigh Ann. "Teacher, I wanted to play with Estelle during recess, but I seemed to have frightened her.”Another child who witnessed the situation immediately spoke up for Rainer. "Estelle hit Rainer on his hand, but she cried instead."The teacher listened to what the children told her, and she understood what had happened.Little Estie had been under her care for so long, so she naturally understood the little girl's situation. In addition, she had also noticed the little girl's moodiness the past two days.Just like what Rainer said, he frightened Estie and Estie retaliated.The teacher asked with concern, "W
Estie held the book and wrote on it stroke by stroke. Then, she held it up to show Miss Leigh Ann.[Teacher, I want a day off too.] The little girl looked at her with a serious face.Miss Leigh Ann had probably guessed the little girl's intention, but she still asked, "Are you going to see the little brothers?"Little Estie nodded vigorously.Miss Leigh Ann furrowed her brows and thought for a while. "I’ll let you have a day off, but you must tell your daddy and let him take you there."Hearing this, the little one's expression collapsed again. She shook her head stubbornly and wrote in the notebook again. [No want Daddy!!!]Seeing the big exclamation marks at the back, Miss Leigh Ann could not help but have a headache.The little girl's situation was special. When she participated in the parent-child activity the last time, the little girl got lost, which shocked her and made her even more mindful of the little girl.In this situation, the parent had to come over to pick up th
Miss Leigh Ann chatted and shared a few kind words with Nox, then she looked at the time with a little embarrassment on her face.She had agreed to give Estie a day off, but she was still on duty at work. It was not good for her to stay outside for too long."Estie, we’ve visited and checked on Nox. Should we go back now?" Miss Leigh Ann asked for the little girl’s opinion.Estie looked eagerly at Rosalie and the brothers. She pursed her lips and shook her head.Looking at the little girl’s response, Miss Leigh Ann knew that it would not be so easy for her to bring the girl back today. She was flustered for a while, so she could only look at Rosalie for help.Rosalie smiled at Miss Leigh Ann. "Let Estie stay. I'll take her home in a moment. You can go and do what you need to."Hearing this, Miss Leigh Ann breathed a sigh of relief and got up to say goodbye.Rosalie and the kids watched Miss Leigh Ann leave before returning to the living room.Estie held onto Rosalie’s hand tigh
