When the little one spoke of Wendy, Byron’s eyes darkened.No wonder Rosalie still refused to accept him. Even the little one knew that the entanglement between him and Wendy had not been resolved. Rosalie would be the last person to forget this.In any case, he must speed up and resolve his mother's obsession with Wendy.Thinking of this, Byron put away his thoughts and asked the little one in a serious tone, "Do you like Auntie Wendy?" The little one shook her head vigorously as flashbacks ran through her mind.‘I don’t like that mean lady! That mean lady only treats me well in front of Daddy! She would pinch my arm behind Daddy’s back and spank my buttocks!’Byron nodded knowingly. He promised the little girl. "I won't marry someone you don't like."The little girl's eyes lit up again."However, if you want Auntie Rosalie to be your Mommy, I'm afraid you have to help me." Byron looked at her meaningfully.Hearing this, the little one was puzzled again and tilted her head i
Early the next morning, Rosalie freshened up and came out of the bedroom when she saw two little boys waiting at her bedroom door."Mommy!" The little boys’ eyes were bright as they were looking forward to Mommy sending them to school.Thinking of their words last night, Rosalie felt her heart soften. She lowered her eyes and touched their heads. "Let’s go down for breakfast. I’ll send you to school later."The boys nodded vigorously.At breakfast, they were also very well-behaved.After breakfast, Rosalie changed clothes and sent the little ones to kindergarten early.The gate of the kindergarten was full of children and parents.Rosalie looked around, and indeed many of them were picked up and dropped off by their parents.‘A while ago, because of my own issues with Byron, I made the boys go home with Nanny Lisa. They must have felt very sad in those few days.’Thinking of this, Rosalie's eyes were remorseful."Miss Jacobs! Long time no see. I heard from Lucian and Nox that
Byron walked toward them, watching them silently.Seeing him coming, the two little boys looked at each other and said hello hesitantly, "Hello, Uncle Byron."Byron raised his brows slightly and reached out to touch the boys’ heads.‘I want to ignore this man’s existence, but the boys have already greeted him. If I pretend to not see him, that would be a little rude in front of Miss Leigh Ann.’Thinking of this, Rosalie looked up eventually and greeted him in a low tone. "Hello, President Lawrence."Byron turned his head to meet her gaze. "You just recovered from your injury. I didn't expect that you would send Lucian and Nox to school."He thought that after what happened yesterday, this woman would hide from him for a few more days.Therefore, he asked Estie to hand over the tickets to the two boys and let them pass them on.He did not expect to meet her again so soon.Rosalie also heard what he meant. A strange look crossed her face as she forced a calm smile."Auntie!" Es
Hearing that Rosalie had agreed, Estie raised her hand and wiped away her tears. Then, she lifted her head and smiled at Rosalie.Rosalie did not expect the little one to cry. She apologetically crouched over and touched the little girl's tear-stained cheek. "I'm sorry, I made you sad."The little one shook her head earnestly and ran back to Byron. She took out the tickets from her school bag and handed them to Rosalie.Rosalie took them while looking conflicted. She wanted to say something but was interrupted by the little girl's voice."Goodbye, Auntie! See you at the concert!" The little girl was afraid that Rosalie would go back on her promise, so she quickly stuffed the tickets to her, carried her school bag, and went into the kindergarten. She waved at Rosalie.Seeing this, Rosalie had no choice but to swallow the words in her mouth. She got up and nodded at the little one.The three little kids entered the kindergarten hand in hand.Only Rosalie and Byron were left standi
Rosalie stood at the entrance of the kindergarten for quite a while. She barely recovered as she put away the tickets in her hand. She got in the car and returned to the research institute.As soon as she entered the office, Xander called."The time is set for tonight. Will you be free on your end?"Rosalie was still a little confused. When she heard this, she was stunned for a moment. Then, she remembered what Xander said when he came to visit yesterday.Tonight. That must be the time to meet the doctors who would be collaborating with them.On the other end, Xander had no answer from Rosalie, so he urged in a puzzled voice. "Miss Jacobs? Everything okay? Is it because the time isn’t right for you?"Rosalie snapped back to her senses. "Oh no, it’s nothing. Yes, I’m free tonight, I'll be there on time."Xander felt that her reaction seemed a little strange, but he could not say anything over the phone, so he simply gave some reminders before hanging up.Rosalie was a little abs
Not many doctors attended this banquet, but there were still a dozen or so.Rosalie took a glance and recognized a few acquaintances who had also participated in the free clinic previously.As for the rest, she had never met them before.However, this must be an esteemed crowd because to be recognized by and cooperate with the Lancer family must not be easy.Thinking of this, Rosalie smiled politely at everyone, expressing her gratitude."Young Master Xander, who are these two?"Suddenly, someone stood up and asked Xander. "They’re also the doctors who want to cooperate with us this time?"Their words were full of doubts about them.Rosalie had long been accustomed to such doubts, but when she heard this, the smile on her face stiffened for a moment.This was Xander's territory, after all. She was afraid that her qualifications would create some unnecessary trouble for him.‘If someone distrusts the Lancer family because of me, it’ll be my fault.’Thinking of this, the expre
Rosalie heard Lucius' question clearly and was stunned for a few seconds. Then, she raised her eyes to look at the people at the table.Not surprisingly, because of Lucius' remarks, everyone looked over. They were all shocked and puzzled.Looking back, Rosalie smiled gratefully at Lucius before speaking in a humble tone, "Dr. Rand, you’re too polite. I just learned some techniques by chance. I’m honored that you’re interested."Lucius solemnly denied it. "I’ve seen your ability with my own eyes, and it’s by no means a coincidence. You don’t need to be humble, Dr. Jacobs."Hearing this, Rosalie wanted to be polite, but Xander interrupted with a smile."Dr. Rand, Dr. Jacobs, let's wait until the end of the banquet for the casual chats. Now, let's talk about business."Rosalie had no choice but to stop and nodded gratefully to Lucius.Although the first meeting between them in the last free clinic was not pleasant, in the follow-up, Lucius still showed the qualities that an outstan
Xander's speech brought the atmosphere of the banquet to a climax.For a moment, everyone's attention was on him.Several doctors who were not with Xander the last time had heard about the Lancer family’s heir and knew that Xander was outstanding in both talent and bearing.However, many of the people present were much older than him. There were still some who were not satisfied with having such a young man preside over the banquet. They were only here just to oblige the Lancer family.After Xander's speech, everyone had let go of their prejudice.The crowd became increasingly curious about the two young people beside Xander.Xander did not seem to be someone who arranged seats based on relationship, so these two young people..."Also, it was my negligence just now, but please allow me to introduce these two people beside me again."Just when everyone was puzzled, Xander's voice sounded again.Hearing this, everyone's eyes returned to Rosalie and Leon.The two looked at Xande
