Having gained her word, Andrius replied with a smile, “Since this is your answer, I'm relieved. I'll prepare the contract tomorrow. Then we’ll just need to sign it."Rosalie nodded in agreement.After discussing the compensation, Andrius personally escorted her to the door and watched her drive away.Watching her car drive off, Andrius then turned back into the house and called Byron."How’s Old Man Quirke?"Byron’s voice rang out along with the sound of flowing water the moment the call connected.Andrius smiled and answered, "He’s awake. Dr. Jacobs is indeed quite skilled."Saying that, he recalled the strangeness between Byron and Rosalie just now and asked curiously, "Byron, have you met Dr. Jacobs… before? I kept feeling that the atmosphere between you two to be somewhat off, and I haven't seen you treat other women like that."She was heckled earlier, and he spoke up for her.At first, Andrius had actually thought that Rosalie was a fraud.Seeing Byron coming forward to
The two of them chatted briefly, but as it was late, Mary then said her goodbyes and left.The two little ones followed Rosalie around the room like they were her tails.After cleaning up a bit, Rosalie then had the time to turn around and care for them."Did you guys have fun at kindergarten today? Did you guys get into trouble with the other children?"The two little ones carefully recalled their time and nodded hard. "It was quite pleasant. When school was over today, the children stuffed us with a lot of snacks!"Hearing this, Rosalie could not help laughing. "Are you two so popular?"Nox nodded solemnly. He looked at Lucian beside him and said, "There was a girl today who said that she wants to marry Lucian when she grows up!""Really?"Rosalie looked at her son with amusement.Lucian was stunned for a moment before he glanced at his brother, ears slightly red. "There was one, but I didn't promise her."Nox pinched his ears and made a face at him.Seeing the little ones
She felt regretful about her best friend being the one who helped her fetch her children the past two days.After dealing with work in the morning, Rosalie took the time to go to the Quirke household in the afternoon, thinking that she could pick up the two little ones by herself in the evening.When she arrived at the Quirke household, she checked Old Master Quirke's condition. Confirming that there were no complications, she continued with the treatment process and inserted the needles.While she was extracting the needles later on, Andrius came in with a document. "Dr. Jacobs, this is the contract prepared. Take a look at it. If there are no problems, you can sign it."This was what they had agreed on last night. Rosalie was not surprised either. She accepted it and looked it through carefully before leaving her signature. After signing the contract, Andrius' attitude toward her became even friendlier. "From now on, we’ll have a working relationship. However, I still have to t
Rosalie nodded noncommittally. She held the boys’ hands and headed over to greet the teacher.Just as they were about to leave, her eyes unconsciously fell onto the little girl again. Noticing that the three of them seemed to be leaving, Estie hurriedly stood up from the slide and looked at them straight.The teacher who had been at the side was afraid of her falling. She quickly reached out and grabbed her."She’s..."Rosalie hesitated for a moment but could not stop herself from worrying.The two had already guessed what she wanted to ask and rushed to answer, "Mommy, she also goes to school here and is in the same class with us! Her parents haven't arrived to pick her up yet today, so she was waiting here with us!"Rosalie nodded with understanding. She glanced at the little girl in front of her and went soft, but she did not intend to stay.After all, it was likely that it was either Byron or Wendy who would be coming to pick her up later.She did not want to see either o
"I recalled you came back from abroad. I suppose Lucian and Nox grew up overseas. I didn't expect them to be fluent with the local language." The teacher had also just come up with an excuse for the time being. Lucian’s and Nox's performance in class had been too good. At present, there was nothing else they could talk about, so they just discussed trivialities.Rosalie nodded with a smile. "That's because there were many of our countrymen around us who communicated with them in the language."The little ones said nothing but smiled obediently. They nodded along with whatever their mommy was saying.Seeing that they were so good, the teacher could not help admiring them. "In addition to speaking our language and English, they seem to be able to speak F Language too?""Well, they learned it from my colleagues abroad."Rosalie caressed their heads. Hearing this, the teacher could not help but sigh. "If that's the case, they’re too smart. Mastering three languages at such a young
Knowing that he was late, Byron did not notice the two in the car as he strode into the kindergarten.He noticed two people standing next to the slide the moment he entered, as well as Estie who had practically burrowed herself into Rosalie's arms."Estie’s Daddy, you're here!"The teacher respectfully greeted immediately upon seeing who had arrived.Byron nodded slightly and he walked to the front of the three of them. He glanced at his daughter, then looked at Rosalie coldly. "Why are you here?"Sensing the hostility surrounding the man, Rosalie inexplicably frowned.To the side, the teacher looked at them in surprise. "Do you two… know each other?"She had thought that Rosalie did not know Estie just now.However, it was not hard to imagine that they would know each other considering Estie's dependence on Rosalie.Rosalie nodded to the teacher noncommittally and then met the man's eyes. "I came to pick up my children from school, but your daughter wouldn’t let go of my clot
She felt ridiculous after her anger subsided, however.She did not have the right.In his eyes, she had never been qualified…She laughed at herself. Lowering her gaze, she slowly and ruthlessly pried the little girl's hand that was gripping her clothes off without saying anything.The little girl wanted to reach out again, but her hand only caught air."Lucian and Nox are still waiting for me. Be good and go back home with your daddy. I'm going to go look for them now."Rosalie caressed her head before putting her hands back on her sides. She hurriedly bade the teacher goodbye and then left without looking back.When she got to the car, the two little boys were already sitting down properly. Seeing that she had come, they asked her naively, "Mommy, what happened to you?"Rosalie took a deep breath and forced a smile. "It's nothing. Let's go home."With that, she started the car and drove away from the gates of the kindergarten.On the other side, Byron was still standing in
Estie sulked the entire journey home.Ignoring her daddy behind her, she went upstairs sulkily and locked the door angrily.Standing by the door, Mrs. Zora saw the little lady's angry appearance and her master's expressionless one as he followed behind. She knew that these two had fought again."Master, what’s the little lady angry about?"Hearing the slamming of the door upstairs, Mrs. Zora looked at Byron with concern.Byron thought of the reason why the little girl was angry with him, and his tone was cold. "It’s nothing. She’s just throwing a temper tantrum. Look after her."Mrs. Zora nodded as usual and agreed. "Alright."She was also unaware why the little lady, who seldom showed her temper, was always getting angry at the master.Considering the master’s character, he was not one to coax another either.The point was, this family still needed a mistress.Estie was only angry at Byron. When Mrs. Zora came knocking, she still opened the door obediently.“Little Lady, co
