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
It was the weekend the next day, and the boys did not need to go to kindergarten.Rosalie had planned to take them to the research institute.As she was just getting ready to head out, she heard the doorbell ring.Rosalie only thought that Mary had come over, so she got up to open the door.When she saw the person standing at the door, Rosalie's brows suddenly knitted together. "Estie? Why are you here?"With that, she subconsciously looked up and around, thinking that Byron would be waiting in the distance.Unexpectedly, there was no other figure at the door except for Estie after she looked around.Rosalie retracted her gaze. She crouched down and looked into the little girl's eyes. "Tell me, how did you get here? Did your daddy send you here?"Based on Byron's attitude toward her at the kindergarten yesterday, it was highly unlikely that he would let Estie come find her.Rosalie could only think of this possibility at present, however.Estie was wearing a white dress and c
Byron stopped working abruptly. "I'll head back right away!"He hung up the call and hurried back to Lawrence Manor without stopping."What happened? How did she go missing when there were so many of you watching?" Back at the villa, Byron asked in a deep voice.The servants stood in the living room fearfully. Under the pressure of his anger, they were afraid to look up.The housekeeper spoke carefully, "We aren’t sure ourselves... The little lady returned to her room after having breakfast this morning. Mrs. Zora went up to look for her but found that she already disappeared."Byron frowned. “What about surveillance?”The housekeeper mourned. "Master, I’m not sure when… the monitors were switched off. We just happen to not have surveillance from this morning."Hearing this, Byron’s expression sank abruptly.The living room was silent.Everyone lowered their heads in fear, wanting very much to hide within the cracks in the ground.Who would have thought that the little lady w
