Chapter 615 Just Say It’s A Wrong Delivery
Byron’s eyes turned even darker at the darkened mobile phone screen.It was uncertain how much time had passed but Byron dug out the flower shop’s contact number and called."Don’t send the flowers tomorrow. From next week onward, help me send them to Virus Research Institute."The receiver on the other end quickly agreed.On the other hand, although Rosalie had already made things very clear to Byron, she was still worried that he would be adamant in his ways.The next morning, Rosalie got up early and sat in the living room.The boys seemed to have the same idea as her as they went downstairs early and sat beside her.The three were anticipating a delivery.Rosalie's heart was even tenser.Fortunately, after waiting all morning, the doorbell never rang.As the doubts on the boys’ little faces gradually faded away, Rosalie breathed a sigh of relief. She believed that Byron had really listened to her words.The next day, after resting at home for nearly half a month, Rosalie
Chapter 616 How Much Misunderstanding
Yves wanted to report to Rosalie about the progress of the institute's projects thus far, but she had dismissed him."I still have some things to deal with. If there’s nothing important, you can go out now."Rosalie's eyebrows drooped slightly. It was tough to decipher her emotions.Hearing this, Yves frowned slightly and turned his head to look at the rose bouquet on the side.Obviously, Rosalie's mood was affected by this bunch of flowers.In the past, judging from Rosalie's rigorous approach to work, the first thing she would do upon returning to the institute if she was absent for a long time was confirm the progress of the projects with him.Today was different.Thinking of this, the emotions in Yves' eyes were complicated.He had too little interaction with Rosalie that he did not even know who sent the flowers.He was all the more clueless about Rosalie's attitude toward that person.Rosalie raised her eyes, saw Yves still standing in her office, and asked, "What's wro
Chapter 617 There’s Already Progress So Soon?
Rosalie did not manage to respond before she heard him add something indirectly."Besides, didn't you also return the flowers to my company? Or perhaps you’d be interested in coming and listening to what my employees are talking about?" Byron’s tone even sounded a bit righteous.Hearing this, Rosalie choked up slightly, and after a long while, she gritted her teeth and replied, "That's because your actions bothered me first, President Lawrence!"Byron just smiled inexplicably. "Miss Jacobs, your actions also bother me very much.""Byron Lawrence!" Rosalie called out his name angrily. "You clearly know what I mean!"Byron's face darkened, but his voice did not waver. "You should know what I mean too. Why won’t you give it a thought?" The two of them kept running around in circles.Rosalie pursed her lips as her head ached. She was silent for a long time before calming herself down. She said in a low voice, "Let's talk face-to-face."She had to rip the band-aid quickly and cou
Chapter 618 I’m Deeply Saddened
It was almost time for their meet-up, but Andrius still could not come up with a solution. He could only say, "No matter what, remember to be gentle. You can’t fight fire with fire."Byron frowned and agreed.After hanging up the phone, Byron strode downstairs and drove to Rosalie's research institute.In the afternoon, after Rosalie got off work, she waited for the people in the research institute to leave before getting up and walking toward the door.Halfway through, she remembered, turned around, and took the rose bouquet.Since they were meeting, she might as well return the flowers to Byron in person.Fortunately, she did not meet anyone along the way.Rosalie wanted to head to where she parked in the morning. That was when she saw the Bentley parked at the main entrance of the research institute.The man in the car saw her too. Soon, Byron got out of the car and walked toward her.Rosalie's expression stiffened when she saw him approach her.They made an appointment to
Chapter 619 Really Unusual
With Byron's wealth and status, he never had to act to anyone.After being in the business world for a long time, the man had very precise control over his emotions and facial expressions.From Rosalie's point of view, the way he frowned deeply seemed to her that he was truly enduring stomach pain. As her gaze went down, Byron raised his brows slightly before nonchalantly raising a hand to his abdomen. At the same time, his features squeezed even more. Rosalie looked him up and down for a long time.Six years ago, she had lived with this man, but she never knew that he had stomach problems.Even so, Byron’s expression does not look fake at all.Maybe his stomach was upset, which was why he was acting unlike his usual self by changing the location of the meet-up and wanting to grab a meal with her at the last minute. That could also explain his oddness just now.Thinking of this, Rosalie slowly put away her doubts, gritted her teeth, and agreed. "I didn't consider your situa
Chapter 620 What Did He Mean?
After Rosalie got out of the car, she wanted to return the flowers to Byron, but the man had already turned and was walking toward the restaurant.Seeing this, Rosalie had no choice but to keep up while still holding the bouquet.The two entered the restaurant one after the other.Soon, a waitress took them to the location reserved by Byron.For some reason, Rosalie found it a little strange.Their appearance and temperament were too outstanding, and many people in the store were sneaking a peek at them.Aware of everyone's gaze, Rosalie raised her eyes in confusion and glanced around.After a while, Rosalie suddenly realized what the difference was.As far as the eyes could see, almost all the customers here were in pairs.The two of them seemed out of place."This is the most popular couple's set meal in our restaurant. You both can try it if you like." The waitress’s recommendation was a jab to her ears.Byron did not care to explain and just agreed lightly. He then ord
Chapter 621 The Wedge Between Them
"We’re both single and unmarried. I wonder where your troubles come from, Miss Jacobs?"After a long while, Byron’s voice sounded in Rosalie's ears.Hearing this answer, Rosalie could not keep the cool on her face anymore. Her eyebrows furrowed suddenly. "If I remember correctly, it’s you who often reminds me that I should think about my two children."Byron’s expression did not change. "I’m only reminding you to stay away from those strange men."Rosalie just felt confused and utterly frustrated. "Who are you to control me? I don't think you have the right to interfere with my private life!"After hearing her words, the man on the opposite frowned with a strange expression on his face.The next second, Byron’s voice sounded in Rosalie's ears. "I’m your suitor. Do I qualify to interfere with your plans now?"Rosalie was stunned and even doubted her ears. "What are you talking about?"Byron frowned. He had already put his whole self out. He did not mind finishing what he started
Chapter 622 If You Don't Like It, You Can Throw It Away
"Yes, I adore Estie too. But that doesn't mean I'll be willing to marry you just because of her."Rosalie kept speaking. "The experience six years ago is still vivid in my head. I won't let myself repeat the same mistakes. You don’t need to waste your efforts anymore."She could feel his sharp and deep gaze falling on her, making her heart inexplicably tense.Fortunately, she was able to finish what she wanted to say.Byron stared at her for a long time and tried to explain himself. The words had already reached his lips, but they were all blocked by Rosalie's last words.Six years ago, he owed this woman too much and hurt her too deeply.It was understandable that she did not believe him.No matter how much he said, the woman might not be able to accept, and she might still feel that he was just giving excuses.Thinking of this, Byron frowned and switched gears instead. "It was my fault that I used Estie as an excuse before. I’m sorry. As for whether I really like you, you can
