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
Chapter 623 Are You Interested in Meeting?
As she struggled with the dilemma on the spot for a while, Rosalie carried the flowers back to the office.It was not because she had decided to accept Byron but because the flowers were still so fresh, so it would be a waste to throw them away.This was also the reason why she chose to return the flowers to Byron before.She was unsure how Byron handled the returned flowers. She wondered whether they were really thrown into the trash as he said.Just when her mind was idling with these random thoughts, there was a knock on her office door.Rosalie came back to her senses and replied softly.After a while, someone pushed the door and entered.Seeing the person at the door, Rosalie's eyes flashed with surprise. "Young Master Xander, why are you here?"Xander's lips upturned slightly, revealing a smile. "I happened to be doing errands nearby, and I heard that you came by the research institute. So, I’m just popping by to check on how your injury is doing."Rosalie pursed her lip
Chapter 624 We’ll Be Fine
After Xander left, Rosalie got up, found a vase, and put the roses in it.Looking at the roses in the vase, all her bottled-up thoughts that were suppressed just now finally flooded out in an instant.Rosalie frowned slightly and sat back at her desk distraught. She looked at the information on the screen, trying to force herself to work hard.However, after reading for a long time, not a word entered her brain.When it was time to get off work, Rosalie, who always worked overtime, went home early.When she was in the office, she could not help but look at the bunch of roses on the table. The more she looked at them, the more confused she became.Back home, before Lisa and the little boys came back, Rosalie took over the job of making dinner so that she could distract herself.Just after dinner was done, the door of the villa opened."You're back?" Rosalie set the meal and glanced at the door with a smile.The little ones saw her at home, and their eyes were full of joy. "Momm
Chapter 625 Boost The Relationship
On the other hand, Byron wanted to pick up Estie after work but received a call from Andrius asking him to have dinner.Byron wanted to refuse, but then he reconsidered. These two days, the topics they talked about were basically related to Rosalie.Maybe tonight would be no exception.Thinking of this, he agreed in a deep voice.Byron hung up the phone and ordered Luther to pick up and send the little one home, while he drove to the appointment.When he got there, Andrius was already waiting in his seat.Andrius waved to his buddy when he arrived, indicating where he was sitting.Byron strode over."How did it go? I hope you didn’t quarrel with Dr. Jacobs at noon today."Andrius' concerned voice sounded as soon as he sat down.Hearing this, Byron could not help but think of the woman's repeated refusals during lunch. His face sank slightly.Seeing his expression, Andrius was taken aback. "Not very good?" Byron frowned, "The process wasn’t very pleasant, but I'm not sure a
