Chapter 50 Fought With Him
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
Chapter 51 Estie Has Gone Missing
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
Chapter 52 Wanted To See You
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
Chapter 53 I Like You Too
Rosalie searched for Byron's number from her contact list.She had deliberately saved Estie's father's phone number, afraid that she might miss a call from him when Estie had gone missing the last time.Looking at the remark now, it was still simply named ‘A’. After changing it to ‘Byron Lawrence’, Rosalie rang his number. On the other side, Byron was getting ready to drive out in search of Estie when his phone suddenly rang. Looking at the caller ID, the man's eyes narrowed slightly before he raised his hand to answer the call."It's me." Rosalie's voice came from the other end.Thinking of the trick that the woman had played to avoid him the last time, Byron snorted coldly in his heart. His tone was also cold. "What is it?"Rosalie glanced at the little girl beside her. If it were not for Estie's sake, she probably would have hung up immediately after hearing his tone!"Estie came to me early this morning. If you're free, come on over and pick her up. Or you can tell me t
Chapter 54 Does It Still Hurt?
The two boys had had a pretty good upbringing and knew that these two model figures were expensive. Although they liked them, they shook their heads at the little girl. "They’re too expensive. We can't accept them."Estie tilted her head. She put the model figures beside them, then turned around and wrote in the small notebook: [Give it to brothers. Thanks. Help.]Nox looked at the small notebook she was holding, confused.This little girl had not written a complete sentence. How were they to know what she was trying to say?Lucian was a little confused at first but he soon understood. "Do you want to thank us for helping you that day?"Estie nodded firmly. She put the small notebook aside and handed the model figures over to them again.When Rosalie heard what her son said, she recalled that the kindergarten teacher seemed to have mentioned that Lucian and Nox had protected Estie the other day.It was just that, what sort of conflicts would occur between children?Looking at E
Chapter 55 Hostile Toward Him
After the medicine had been put applied, Lucian and Nox also came downstairs with the gifts they had selected for the little girl.They walked up to Estie with unusual-looking dolls in their arms. "We bought them with our own pocket money. They’re for you."The two little dolls were hideously adorable, and they did not suit Estie at all.However, it was the first time Estie received a gift from her peers, and it was from the two little brothers she liked very much. Hence, she took them without hesitation. Holding the two ugly dolls with more force than when she held the model figures before, her face was filled with joy.After a while, Estie put down the dolls after she was done carrying them and wrote a big ‘thank you’ on the small notebook. She held the book up to the two little brothers with a soft smile.It was also the first time Lucian and Nox saw the little girl smile like this.They were previously against her because she was the child of their daddy with another woman.
Chapter 56 Did Not Want To Go Back
Byron put his thoughts away and followed Lucian into the villa.The moment he entered the door, he saw Estie sitting on the carpet in the living room, playing with Lego blocks with single-hearted devotion. Next to her, there was a little boy who looked exactly like the child who had opened the door for him.They were obviously the twins.Byron's eyes were dim. He swept his gaze around the living room while trying not to look at the two children.He did not see Rosalie's figure."Your daddy is here." After coming in, Lucian went straight to Estie. His friendly attitude from before had changed as he called her coldly.Hearing these words, Estie stopped slowly and looked up at Byron who was standing not far away.With just one look, she immediately withdrew her gaze reluctantly. She lowered her head to write in the notebook.The eyes of the remaining three in the living room were all on Estie.Lucian and Nox were also unwilling to part with the little girl, but since her daddy wa
Chapter 57 She Doesn’t Need Your Gratitude
Hearing him mention their mommy, the two boys were instantly on their guards."Why are you looking for my mommy?!" Lucian stared at the man not far away alertly like a little dog that would attack anytime.Obviously, he had no attacking power, but he still had to put on a fierce appearance.Byron was deeply aware of the little guy's hostility, and when he saw his alert appearance, he found it strange but also funny. He did not take it seriously. He just said, "You’ve taken care of Estie these two times. I need to offer my gratitude in person."Hearing this, Lucian breathed a sigh of relief internally, but his small face was still taut. "No need. My mommy went to make a call, and she doesn’t need your thanks."With that, he dragged Nox back to the carpet. He bowed his head and said to Estie, "Since your daddy has come to pick you up, you can go back with him. Mommy has to go out to work in a while and won't have the time to accompany you." Estie was still immersed in the joy of t
