Seeing this, Rosalie felt her heart hurt for a moment. She touched the little girl's head and said softly, "I went out today and the wound accidentally opened. It's all right now."Estie's eyes were already red. "Does it hurt real bad?"Rosalie's heart softened. "It doesn't hurt. I don’t even feel anything."After saying that, Rosalie looked up and glanced at the man sitting beside her before switching the topic to him. "Besides, your daddy was also very careful when he bandaged me. You can ask him if my injury is serious or not."The little girl set her sights on Byron, waiting for him to answer.Seeing that the woman had actually brought him up of her own accord, Byron could not help raising a brow. He nodded to the little girl noncommittally. "She’ll recover soon as long as she gets a good rest later.”The little girl still trusted her daddy's words. Hearing what her daddy said, the little girl sniffled and nodded obediently.Rosalie had wanted to let the little girl know tha
Looking at the man in front of her, Rosalie's eyes were full of hesitation.Byron frowned and stretched out his hand toward her. "I'll help you over."Rosalie glanced at the children who were looking at them from the dining hall. She then thought of Byron's phone call just now and refused him indifferently. "Why don’t you go over and accompany the children first, President Lawrence? I can call Lisa over to help me."She said that, only to see a trace of displeasure in the eyes of the person in front of her. His tone also became a little cold. "Miss Jacobs, do you think it’s inconvenient for me to support you? It just so happens that I also think that it’ll be easier to carry you over."He actually leaned toward her after he said that.Rosalie did not expect this person to actually threaten her like this. She hurriedly stretched her hand out. "Then, please help me over there, President Lawrence."Byron paused in midair for a few seconds. Seeing this, Rosalie’s heart constricted fo
Lucian and Nox looked at each other, and for a moment, they did not dare answer. They did not like Uncle Byron but Daddy. They wanted Daddy to take care of Mommy.However, Mommy did not seem to like Daddy.Thinking of this, the children were filled with hesitation.Rosalie felt a little uneasy deep down.The changes in the children's attitude toward Byron during this period of time had been obvious.If things went on like this and if they really liked Byron and wanted to have more contact with him, Rosalie would not be able to find an excuse to refuse them. After all, they should be growing up by Byron’s side. She was the one who deprived them of the right to live with their father.Thinking of this, Rosalie looked at the children apologetically. "I… I don’t know either, but if you guys want to do that, I won't refuse."The implication was that she would not take the initiative to invite them, nor was she happy about Byron visiting. She was just making it up to them.The bo
Lawrence Manor.Byron brought Estie home. Seeing that it was getting late, he took care of the little girl and waited until she fell asleep."Daddy."Just when Byron was about to get up and leave, the little girl’s voice sounded.Byron's footsteps paused. He turned around and sat beside the little girl's bed. "What's wrong?"The girl was already a little sleepy, but she still endured her sleepiness and looked at her daddy carefully. "Auntie, does she like us now?"After all, when she and daddy were guests today, Auntie did not drive them away early, nor did she deliberately neglect Daddy.Hearing the little girl's question, Byron’s eyes darkened. He thought about how the woman had kept her distance from him when the children had not returned and how she did not immediately answer when Estie asked to stay."When are we going to see Auntie again?" The little girl's voice was filled with anticipation.Byron was silent for a moment before he reached out and touched the little girl
Andrius arrived at the clubhouse half an hour later wearing only pajamas with a long coat thrown on top.Fortunately, he was a regular patron of the clubhouse and was recognized the moment he entered the door. Otherwise, he would have definitely been refused entry with what he was wearing.When he got to the private room under Byron, he saw him already sitting in there. There were only a few plates of simple bar snacks on the table, and the rest of the space was filled with wine bottles.There was one bottle with a large half of its content already drunk."What's wrong?" Andrius' heart sank as he carefully sat down beside his brother.Byron, as if having just noticed his existence, turned to glance at him with an empty look. "I did as you said."Hearing this, Andrius could not help frowning. He did not know what he meant.Did as he said? What did he say? What would make his friend like this?While pondering about it, Andrius poured himself a glass of wine and joined Byron to dr
Since Dr. Jacobs returned to the country, the two of them had been interacting with one another for much longer than he knew of.As far as Andrius knew, Byron had practically been helping Rosalie the entire time. Even the opportunity to cooperate with the Lancer family was given to Rosalie by Byron. No matter how deep the misunderstanding went between the two of them six years ago, even if Rosalie did not plan to reciprocate Byron’s feelings after all that he had done, she should at least be grateful to Byron.What was more, Byron had created so many opportunities for them to spend time together. As far as he knew, Rosalie was not a hard-hearted person. How could she remain unmoved?Byron frowned, and his expression was hideous.Andrius' question… Was it not the question he wanted to ask the woman as well?When he thought about the woman ditching Estie back then, he also wondered if the woman’s heart was made of stone.Now, the misunderstanding had been resolved, but the woma
In order to ease his relationship with Rosalie, Byron wasted so much time thinking about it during this period of time.Especially with Estie behind him who kept on nagging at him and hounding him with questions, he could only keep trying to find a way.However, despite what he had done, their relationship had not progressed at all.Byron was more or less already a little tired.Andrius did not know if his solution was feasible, but he did not want to see the two of them keep being at a standstill like this. He gritted his teeth and suggested, "Just start your pursuit. I feel tired just looking at the two of you trying to guess each other’s minds like this. It’ll be better if one of you directly explain yourselves."Byron frowned and looked at him, motioning him to continue.Although he was unwilling to admit it, what Andrius said was indeed the core issue between him and Rosalie now. He did not know what the woman was thinking, and the woman was always unwilling to trust his i
Hearing his master's words, Luther suddenly lost all his sleepiness.Did he hear him right? Did his master actually ask him to look for flower shops?Was it for the purpose he had in mind?As he was so shocked, he even forgot to respond for a moment.On the other end, after not receiving an answer for a long time, Byron frowned and pressed, "Can you hear me?"Luther suddenly came back to his senses and quickly complied. "Yes, sir. Hold on for a moment. I'll look for them right away!"Byron responded before hanging up the call.He originally wanted Luther to directly order a bunch of flowers for him, but then he thought about the meaning behind the bouquet of flowers and decided to communicate with the florist personally.Soon, Luther sent him the contact information and addresses for two flower shops.Byron opened and glanced at the introductions for each flower shop before deciding on one of them.The next morning, Byron sent Estie to the kindergarten early and went straight
