As the little girl insisted, Rosalie smiled awkwardly at the man and reached out to hand him the conch.Unexpectedly, as soon as she stretched out her hand, the man grabbed her wrist instead, took her hand, and put the conch next to his ear.Rosalie's hand was only a few millimeters away from his face. As long as she relaxed her arm a little, the palm of her hand would touch the man's face.Realizing this, Rosalie's expression was slightly stiff. She gritted her teeth and maintained the angle of her wrist.After a while, the man finally let go of her hand."How is it? Did you hear that?" Estie looked at her father expectantly.Byron glanced at Rosalie inexplicably, then raised his eyebrows in response. "I heard it."Hearing Daddy's affirmation, the little girl became even more excited.Rosalie noticed the man’s glances, and ripples appeared in her heart.After a few seconds of delay, she smiled at the little girl as if nothing had happened. "Okay, let's continue to look for mo
They stayed on the beach until nightfall. As more and more people came to the beach, Rosalie could not help but think of the experience last night.Although a day had passed, Rosalie was still a little worried when she saw the crowd, so she left the beach with the kids.Coincidentally, it was also time for dinner. Byron took them to a nearby restaurant.The little ones had their pockets full of shells. While they were at the table, they excitedly laid the seashells they had collected on the table to compare with each other’s shells.Rosalie watched with a smile as she looked at the little ones being competitive with each other. She thought it was funny and cute.After a while, the waiter came to serve the dishes, and the little ones reluctantly put away their treasures.After playing all afternoon, everyone was rather hungry. They were very focused when eating, so almost no one spoke.The two adults took the little ones to the handicraft workshop right after dinner.Various too
Rosalie quickly made the bracelet, looked up, saw that the kids were still busy, and waited quietly."Auntie!"After a while, Estie's sweet little voice broke the silence, and the little girl held up a finished conch keychain in front of her.Rosalie was stunned. She thought that the little girl wanted her to evaluate her handicraft and praised her with a smile. "Wow, Estie, your work is so beautiful!"The beautiful conch that Estie picked up was already colorful, but the little girl then added on a blue buckle which made the keychain even more eye-catching.It was a very suitable accessory for the little girl's school bag.Rosalie's eyes were full of joy as she pictured the little girl walking on the road with her school bag and this conch keychain hanging on the side.The next second, the little girl added, “This is for you!"Hearing this, Rosalie's smile froze. She looked at the little girl in disbelief.She still remembered how much the little girl liked the conch when she
Rosalie's eyes flashed with surprise when she heard what the little boys said.For the first time in years, they were keeping something a secret from her.Suddenly, Rosalie became even more curious about the little boys’ works.After waiting for an unknown time, the little boys finished their crafts.This time, Rosalie was sure that she was not mistaken. They indeed looked up at Byron who was not far away.Even Byron noticed the probing eyes of the little guys, and he frowned in confusion.The two little ones held the work in their hands mysteriously, ran around the workshop, and found a milky white seashell glowing with fluorescence. After opening the shell, they could put their handmade work in.The fluorescent seashells were for sale, so the boys used their own pocket money and bought them.After these series of actions, the boys walked up to Byron cautiously.As the little boys stood in front of him, Byron’s brows furrowed. He even faintly wondered whether the boys wanted
"It's getting late."Rosalie stood up and nonchalantly walked to the two little boys. "Let's go back.”She spoke as she casually took them away from Byron's side.The little boys did not notice anything odd about Mommy at all. They just blinked and nodded obediently.Byron noticed her demeanor as she retreated with the children, and his face darkened.The woman’s actions could not be more obvious. She felt that the two children were too close to him.‘So, is she the one behind the children’s intense resistance toward me before?‘Does she hate me so much?’Rosalie nodded to him indifferently, took Lucian and Nox over to settle the bill, and led them out of the workshop. She left Little Estie behind.The little girl sat alone behind the desk, not knowing what was going on.She had also exchanged gifts with Auntie just now.However, in a blink of an eye, Auntie left with the brothers, leaving her and Daddy behind.The little girl glanced at her daddy dully with a bit of inquir
The two boys were led by Rosalie, and along the way, Rosalie did not say a word. The boys became a little worried.They did not know what was wrong. They only felt that Mommy suddenly seemed unhappy."Mommy..." Nox said cautiously, "Aren't we bringing Little Estie along?"Rosalie came back to her senses after hearing the little boy's words and remembered that in her panic, she forgot about Estie.However, it was impossible to go back now.Rosalie hesitated for a moment, then patted the little boy's head soothingly. "Uncle will take Little Estie back."Hearing this, the little guys nodded obediently but still asked, "Mommy, why are you unhappy? Weren't we okay just now?"Although they had been concentrating on their handicrafts, they knew that Estie and Mommy had given each other gifts.It stood to reason that Mommy should be very happy.However, she seemed a little flustered now.Lucian frowned and raised his eyes to look at his mother. "Is it because we gave Uncle Byron a gi
Byron’s brows wrinkled slightly as he glanced at the two little boys beside her."We want to accompany Mommy!" The little boys held Rosalie's hand.Rosalie had no choice but to agree, so she said to Byron, "Well then, President Lawrence, you bring Estie back first. I’ll go back with the boys in a while."Byron noticed that his little girl was grabbing the hem of his clothes with extra strength. She was obviously reluctant to leave.However, the woman had already turned around and was walking away with the boys."Auntie..." Estie looked at their backs sadly.Byron's eyes darkened, but he was still worried about the three of them. He knew that Rosalie would not want them to follow along, so he took Estie to a nearby restaurant and waited.Rosalie took the boys to a place with lesser people, took off her shoes, and sat on the beach.The cool sea breeze blew on her face, and she gradually calmed down.The two brothers stayed by her side and did not dare to mess around. They were m
Byron’s face sank upon hearing Lucian’s words. "Where is she? Take us there!"The boy ran to the direction he came from immediately.Byron carried Estie and followed behind him with big strides....Rosalie was still worried about Lucian who ran away by himself. After waiting for a while, she said softly to Nox, "Help me up. Let's go look for your brother." The little boy shook his head and refused without hesitation. "Mommy, you’re hurt and shouldn’t move around. Brother will find someone soon!"Rosalie frowned, but patiently tried to convince him. "I’m worried about your brother. Although I know you boys won't let yourselves get into trouble, I’ll still be scared."Mommy's words somewhat shook the younger brother’s resolve.‘I don't want to make Mommy's injury worse, and I don't want Mommy to worry about us either…’Just as he was hesitating whether or not to listen to Mommy and help her up, Lucian’s breathless voice came from a distance."Mommy! Mommy! I've brought someon
