Chapter 445 Completely Out Of Sight
Rosalie still felt somewhat distressed at the mention of Estie, and the smile on her face was reluctant.Estie was unhappy because of her, but she could only let boys coax her instead.Seeing Mommy's expression, Lucian’s and Nox's eyes darkened. Their little faces were filled with self-reproach. "Mommy, we’re sorry." Rosalie frowned in confusion as the two boys had suddenly apologized."You’re very tired every day. We shouldn't be angry with you because of Little Estie." Nox said affectionately, "Don't worry, Mommy. We’ll try to make her happy in the future!"Lucian echoed, "Mommy, you just concentrate on work. Leave Estie to us!"Rosalie smiled with relief over the boys being so sensible. "Thank you, my darlings."Nox whispered again, "But it would be even better if you could go and see her."Afraid that he might push too much, he added with a smile, "It’s okay if you can’t. We’ll still help you take care of Estie!"Rosalie smiled and patted the little boy's head. She watche
Chapter 446 He Looked Strange
The next morning, as soon as Rosalie woke up, she saw a message from last night. Leon Martin: [Are you free tomorrow? Let's grab a meal?]She thought about her work schedule for the day and replied.Rosalie: [How about noon? Near our research institute.] On the other end, Leon quickly agreed.The clock was barely noon and Rosalie received a call from Leon."Are you done yet? I'll be waiting for you at the entrance of your research institute." As soon as it was connected, Leon's voice rang.Rosalie was talking to Yves about a recent project. As she answered the phone, Yves paused the conversation and waited.Hearing that Leon had arrived, Rosalie subconsciously glanced at Yves, and replied to Leon apologetically, "Hey Leon, give me a moment, I need to sort some matters out now, or if you don’t mind, you can come in and wait."Leon politely declined with a deep smile. "Oh it’s alright, don’t worry. I'll wait for you at the door, take your time."Rosalie agreed, then hung up t
Chapter 447 The Mysterious Family
Rosalie had no idea what the two were thinking.On the way to the restaurant, Rosalie smiled while she caught up to Leon. "Why did you suddenly want to have lunch together today? Did you just come back from S City?"Leon nodded noncommittally. "I just came back last night. I sent Senior Lewis off before I got on the plane. It was midnight when I came back."Rosalie thought of the time he sent a message to her. It should be right around the time he got off the plane.‘I wonder what could be so important?’"Senior Lewis asked me to come back and say hello to you on his behalf. He wants to know if the problem your research institute was facing has been resolved," Leon said again.Rosalie was touched to know that Senior Lewis thought of her, and the smile on her face became brighter. "I can’t thank you and Senior Lewis enough that night. Those medicinal materials suppliers might have been hesitant, but after Senior Lewis said a few words, they immediately agreed after taking into con
Chapter 448 Never An Embarrassment
As they chatted, the car was already at the entrance of the restaurant.Leon parked the car. The two entered the restaurant together and sat by the window.Leon had already made an appointment early in the morning. Not long after they sat down, the dishes were ready.The two talked about the Lancer family’s free clinic as they ate."The news of the Lancer family’s free clinic was only spread to certain parties. How did you find out?" Leon asked.Rosalie had nothing to hide. "I had no idea as I was already planning to go abroad. Then two days ago, I went to Old Master Quirke’s house to thank him. The old master suddenly mentioned this to me, so I decided to stay in the country for a while more."Leon frowned slightly. "Go abroad?"Rosalie smiled noncommittally. "Well, you saw how the institute was targeted by the Lawrence family because of me. If I stay in the country, it might affect the research institute. Hence, it’s better for me to just go abroad. I can't afford to offend La
Chapter 449 Don't Forget To Pick Up
As soon as Rosalie walked into the entrance of the research institute, she saw Yves standing at the entrance.The man was lost in his thoughts as he leaned against the wall staring blankly. He did not even see her coming in.Rosalie went over and called out to him curiously, "Dr. Graham, what’s on your mind?" Yves jolted slightly. It was obvious that he was startled. His eyebrows twitched, then he came back to his senses and straightened up to face her. "You guys finished chatting so soon?"Rosalie smiled and nodded. "Leon also plans to participate in the Lancer family’s free clinic in two days. We had a brief chat and agreed to go together."Yves' eyes flashed with loneliness when he heard that.When he saw Rosalie and Leon standing side by side that noon, Yves lost his appetite during lunch, so he simply took two bites before driving back and waiting for Rosalie at the door.As he waited for her, he unconsciously thought of the gap between himself and Rosalie.Now that he kn
Chapter 450 Mixed Feelings
Rosalie hung up the phone, hesitated for a while, then drove toward the kindergarten.The kindergarten ended at five o'clock in the afternoon.Under the guidance of the teachers in each class, the little children came out of their classrooms in neat order, waiting for their parents to pick them up.Lucian and Nox stood at the end of the line with Estie, and when they saw Estie looking at the crowd expectantly, the brothers looked at each other with distress on their faces."Look at me, Estie. I can make a bird appear!" Nox tried his best to attract the little girl's attention by making a bird-like shadow with his fingers while waving them in front of Estie.Estie just glanced absently before looking at the crowd again as if searching for someone.Maybe it was just her illusion. Even so, Estie always felt like Auntie was looking at her somewhere, but it was just that she could not find her.The two little boys were not disappointed even though Estie did not look at them. They sti
Chapter 451 Don’t Want To See Uncle Byron
Fortunately, the little boys did not feel sad for long.They knew that if they were sad, Mommy would be in a bad mood too.The little boys just felt momentary regret for Estie, then they put smiles on their faces again and stretched out their hands toward Rosalie.Rosalie put away her thoughts, smiled, and carried the boys into the car one by one. Nanny Lisa sat with them in the backseat."Mommy, why didn’t you tell us that you were coming to pick us up?" Nox asked cautiously.Rosalie started the car slowly, and when she heard this, she thought of her sneaky act just now. She felt a little guilty. "Erm… I just made a sudden decision."The little one was puzzled. He tilted his head. "But aren't you busy with work today?""Work ended early today, so I suddenly wanted to pick you up." Rosalie tried her best to sound convincing.Lucian's child-like voice sounded in the backseat. "Mommy is lying."Rosalie was stunned.Nox also looked at his brother in confusion, wondering why he s
Chapter 452 Spoke Of You
The boys thought they guessed it right, so they were not upset anymore. Instead, they comforted Rosalie. "If you don’t want to see Uncle Byron, then don’t. We’ll take good care of Estie!"Daddy was so ruthless that he abandoned them and Mommy. They did not want to see Daddy either!Rosalie smiled with relief. "Mommy saw you doing just that."Hearing this, the boys began to take credit with excitement.The car became lively again.Rosalie also relaxed a lot. No matter what the little ones said to her, she responded to every question patiently.When they got back, Rosalie even cooked with Nanny Lisa and whipped up a sumptuous dinner for the little ones.After dinner, Rosalie played with the boys for a while. When they fell asleep, she got up and went back to her room.Rosalie felt a little confused as she thought of Estie in the evening.The last time the little girl came to see her, she was very happy in front of her.However, today, the little girl's mood was indeed visibly d
