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
The atmosphere seemed to be in a deadlock for a moment.Rosalie looked at the little boys who stood still for a long time and felt embarrassed.She thought that Byron had already returned to the hotel with Estie.Even if Lucian went to find someone for help, it should just be a stranger.She never expected that he would bring Byron.She wanted to be brave, but the little boys did not give her this chance and left her hanging.For a while, no one moved.Rosalie gritted her teeth secretly with one hand on the ground as she tried to stand up by himself.Seemingly aware of her intentions, Byron cast a gaze on her that was mixed with a touch of displeasure.Rosalie struggled to move.The next second, the man moved.Rosalie watched the man walk to her feet, lean over, and grab her ankle.She instinctively wanted to hide, but it was too late. The man held her ankle and lifted her injured foot. Rosalie could even feel the tip of his finger brushing past her wound.Rosalie instinct
Byron noticed her discomfort, so his arms that held her tightened again.Behind him, three little ones grabbed the hem of Byron’s shirt, and three pairs of eyes stared at the person in his arms.They walked like this all the way to the nearby clinic, where Byron carefully put her on the chair.It was not the first time that the clinic doctor had seen this kind of injury. While treating Rosalie's wound, he warned, "It's really comfortable to step on the sand with bare feet, but at night, you can't see the ground clearly, so I advise you to be careful."Rosalie blushed and agreed with a guilty conscience."The injury isn’t serious, but it’s still necessary to take good care of it. You should pay attention while walking for the next two days. Try not to put any force on the wound. In addition, the wound shouldn’t get wet."After the treatment, the doctor gave a stern reminder.Rosalie frowned in pain. Hearing this, Byron answered for her before she could react."Understood. I'm so
The group left the hotel overnight and returned to the city.Unlike when they came, the seating arrangements had changed. In order to help Rosalie sit more comfortably, Lucian sat in the front passenger seat, while Estie and Nox sat in the back with Rosalie.All the way home, the little ones looked at her injured foot with worry and wonder. It made Rosalie want to laugh and cry at their anticsFinally, when they were at the door of the villa, Rosalie leaned on the backrest and cautiously wanted to get out of the car. Just as she moved to the door of the car, a pair of big hands stretched out in front of her and placed them on her waist.Rosalie was stunned for a few seconds. She thought that since the kids had seen this scene several times since she got injured, presumably they would not think too much about it. Hence, she gave in and let Byron carry her into the villa.As soon as they entered the door, Nanny Lisa greeted them and saw Rosalie being carried by Byron. She was genuin
Byron glanced deeply at the person sitting on the sofa. He was unhappy but did not say anything. He briefly bade goodbye and took the little girl home.Rosalie was injured and was not able to get up to see them off.When the door of the villa was closed, Rosalie breathed a sigh of relief before falling into a daze.The experience these two days was like a dream when she thought about it now.After a lapse of six years, she once again stayed in the same room as Byron and even expressed her feelings to him from six years ago.Even more, Byron’s attitude toward her also made her feel like she was in a dream from time to time.It felt like… he had feelings for her.Rosalie shook it off and thought it was ridiculous that she had these illusions."Mommy." Lucian carefully tugged on the hem of her clothes.Rosalie came back to her senses and looked at the little boy wearily.Lucian looked at his mother's pale face, and he became concerned. "Are you tired? Let's help you get some res
Meanwhile, Byron was on the way home with Estie.The father and daughter had their own concerns, and for a while, the car was silent.Estie sat in the backseat, and her little face was staring at the shell bracelet on her wrist. She felt uneasy."Daddy, is Auntie trying to avoid us again?" Estie hesitated for a long time. However, she eventually could not help but ask.Although Rosalie had promised her that she could see her again, the little one was still afraid that Rosalie would continue to avoid them in the future.The little one's question hit the nail in Byron's heart. The man was silent for a few seconds before replying with a complicated mood, "I don’t know either."Hearing this, the little girl pouted her lips in disappointment. She carefully prodded. "Did Estie do badly this time?"‘I remember that Daddy said if I behaved well, Auntie would no longer avoid us.‘But Auntie liked me very much these two days. She even gave me a gift…’These thoughts made the little girl
"The situation is really strange."Luther slowly explained, "According to our investigation, the perpetrators are just rambunctious gangsters who have nothing to do with the Lawrence family or the Fuller family. There’s no reason for them to seek revenge on Madam and Miss Fuller."Although Byron had his own conjecture, his face darkened when he heard this. "Where are they now?"Luther said, "Those kids are very vigilant. Recently, there are some unknown people wandering in some entertainment places in the southern district. They should be the suspects who are hiding from us."Byron frowned and instructed. "Since they’re still in Coast City, find them as soon as possible."During this time, his mother had been using the matter of the car accident to force him to maintain the engagement.Byron did not want to be held ransom by this matter anymore.He desperately needed the truth!On the other end, Luther responded without hesitation, "Yes, I’ll send more people immediately, and w
Rosalie was injured, so it was inconvenient for her to move around. After returning from the hotel, she had been recuperating at home. Most of the matters in the research institute were dealt with by Dr. Graham over the phone.This morning, Xander Lancer's call came in.Seeing the caller ID, Rosalie's eyes turned slightly bright. She could probably guess the purpose of Xander's call.After all, after the free clinic, the only contact between the two of them was about the cooperation of the research institute.Before that, the Lancer family's research institute was still in the preparatory stage. Hence, their cooperation had not been on the right track.This call was very likely to discuss the specific matters of cooperation with her!Thinking of this, Rosalie stumbled into the study regardless of her foot injury."Miss Jacobs, I’m not disturbing your rest, am I?" Xander's smiling voice came through as soon as the line was connected.Rosalie smiled. "Of course not! Young Master
