As soon as Rosalie asked the question, she clearly felt an unspoken storm surrounding them.Without looking, she knew that the source of the storm was coming from the man beside her.Rosalie dug her nails into her palm, forcing herself not to turn her head to look and pretending that he did not exist.Byron’s question just now made her feel nervous. Thinking of the inexplicable confession before, Rosalie was afraid that he would make more excessive demands.On the other end, Xander frowned and noticed that the driver was indeed slow to arrive."I'll call and ask." After speaking, Xander took out his mobile phone and wanted to make a call.The next second, Byron’s voice rang out. "Since Young Master Xander's driver will be a while away, if Miss Jacobs don't mind, I can take you back instead." Rosalie's heartstrings tensed again over what he said. Her knee-jerk reaction was to escape toward Xander’s direction.She really did not want to be alone with Byron, for fear that this ma
Rosalie looked straight into Byron's eyes as if questioning him why he doubted her like those people.Byron was stunned for a moment.Speechless from what she said just now, there was a faint trace of frustration in his eyes. When he spoke again, his tone softened. "I didn't mean it that way."He just did not want to see this woman leave together with another man.Rosalie's face had cooled down, and her tone was full of sarcasm. "Then what exactly do you mean, President Lawrence?"Byron frowned, glanced at Xander on the other side, and put it another way. "There was such a big commotion just now. If someone sees Young Master Xander taking you home in person again, my efforts just now will be in vain." The man's eyes slowly moved from Xander to Rosalie's face, and he made an appeal solemnly. "Although you didn't seem too thrilled with my intervention earlier, I don't want to be dismissed so quickly. I ask for you to reconsider what I just said."Hearing this, Rosalie's eyes trem
Xander's eyes gradually darkened as he watched the two leave.The relationship between these two people was incomprehensible.He could see that Byron was now clearly intent on saving the relationship, but Rosalie's attitude was unpredictable.Xander felt complicated as he thought of the woman standing in the soft light just now.Rosalie knew nothing of his thoughts.Along the way, the man held onto her wrist.It was uncertain how much strength Byron was exerting that her wrist started to ache. "Let go of me!"Rosalie tried to struggle but was held tighter.After letting go just now, this woman almost ran to another man. Byron did not plan to let her go again.Rosalie struggled, but the man turned a deaf ear to her words.After several times, she gave up and let him lead her to the side of the road.The driver pulled over.Seeing the two coming, the driver got out of the car, opened the rear door respectfully, and waited for the two to get into the car.Looking at the ope
Rosalie fell into a drowsy sleep. When she woke up, she momentarily forgot where she was and only felt a little warm.As she struggled to sit up and look around, she suddenly remembered that she was in Byron’s car.Where she was leaning against when she fell asleep...Rosalie subconsciously glanced at the man beside her.Byron had withdrawn his hand. From that sitting position, it seemed that nothing had happened just now.However, other than in his arms, Rosalie could not imagine where she could be leaning on just now."Excuse me, I accidentally fell asleep just now," Rosalie said with a guilty conscience.Then, she felt him turning around to look at her. His eyes were fixated deeply on her as if they meant something.Rosalie shifted awkwardly, trying to keep a distance from him.Aware of her intentions, Byron’s eyes darkened. "You slept soundly just now, Miss Jacobs. It seems that you’re very satisfied with the environment in my car."Rosalie's body froze, and her eyes were
There was another moment of silence in the car.Suddenly, Rosalie's phone lit up. It was a message.Leon: [ Are you home?]Even though Leon was not in front of her, Rosalie smiled politely at his concern.Rosalie: [I’m still on the way.] Leon: [Buzz me when you get home.]Rosalie: [Okay, sure.]Rosalie smiled as she clicked away on her phone.On the side, Byron noticed the light and turned his head for a glance. He saw the light smile on Rosalie's face and followed her gaze, only to see the note at the top of the screen—Leon Martin.Obviously, this woman was sending a message to Leon.Seeing this, Byron's slightly lightened mood sank again.‘What did I do wrong? This woman is smiling so happily just returning a message to Leon, but whenever she’s with me, she always looks like she’s facing a formidable enemy!’Thinking of this, Byron's inner turmoil gradually increased.When Rosalie was done sending messages and had put away the phone, she was sensitively aware that the a
After Rosalie finished speaking, she realized she had gone a little too far.She thought Byron would refute her coldly, but she did not hear the man's voice for a while.She only felt the lingering storm in the car.Just when she was hesitating whether to say another sentence, the man's slightly helpless voice sounded in her ear."Well then, Miss Jacobs, would you mind putting me and other suitors in the same position? Don't treat me differently."Byron really had no choice but to make concessions after thinking for a long time.Hearing these words suddenly, Rosalie's heart shrank suddenly. She even doubted her ears.‘How could someone so arrogant say such a humble thing?’“If Young Master Martin is your so-called other pursuer, will you please treat me like how you treat him? After all, we have known each other no less than you and Young Master Martin have known each other."Byron furrowed his brows, unsure what mood he was in when he said these words. "I know I’ve done you w
As soon as she entered the door, there was movement upstairs."Mommy!" The two boys came out of the bedroom, ran down thumping, stood in front of her, and looked at her with strange expressions on their faces.Rosalie's mood was still a little heavy. When she met their eyes, she just barely managed to put away her thoughts. "What's wrong, my babies?"She only saw the little ones looking at the door curiously, but she was not sure what they were looking at.After a while, they withdrew their gazes with disappointed faces."What are you looking at?" Rosalie was puzzled.The little boys looked up at their mommy, their faces were full of disappointment. "Mommy, isn't Estie here?"Hearing this, Rosalie was puzzled again, wondering why the little guys suddenly brought up Estie."It's so late now. She must be sleeping." The two boys tilted their heads. "But didn't Uncle Byron send you back just now? Didn't Estie come along too?" The boys were worried about Rosalie as it was late
Rosalie calmed down for a few seconds before replying to the message. Rosalie: [What do you mean? I already promised the child about the concert.]The reply was immediate. Byron: [I just thought that maybe you’d be busy with the Lancer family for a while. So if you really don't have time, I don’t want to force you.]Seeing the last sentence, Rosalie had a vague guess in her heart.Perhaps Byron suddenly brought up this matter because of what she told him in the car, asking him to stop forcing her.To him, Rosalie only agreed to go to the concert because Estie had repeatedly requested it. That meant she had no choice but to agree, which was considered forced.‘So, is he making up for previous mistakes?’The thought that this man would actually make a change because of her words gave Rosalie many odd feelings. She almost believed what Byron said about pursuing her.Realizing her train of thought, Rosalie snapped back to her senses, lowered her eyes to collect her thoughts, and
