Chapter 687 Who Else Can He Marry
After watching the elevator descend to the first floor, Wendy got up from the ground in a daze and went back to her room.She spent some amount of time sitting in the room when the phone beside her suddenly rang.Wendy snapped back to her senses and glanced at the caller ID. It was her mother. She did not even need to think to know what she was going to say.Wendy had no plans of accepting the call. She just watched the screen light up momentarily before going dark again.After a while, the phone rang again.A few more times after, Wendy answered the phone irritably."Wendy, why didn’t you answer your phone for such a long time? What have you been doing? Have you not reached their home?" Magdalene's concern came the moment the call connected. Hearing this, mockery crossed Wendy’s face. Her mother still thought that she had really gone to Lawrence Manor until now.On the other end, Magdalene did not get an answer from her after a long time and so, urged again with confusion, "W
Chapter 688 Please Come Over And Have A Look
Rosalie knew nothing about what Wendy and her mother were thinking.After playing with the children the entire day, and spending a lot of time dealing with Byron, Rosalie practically fell asleep the moment she laid down.The next morning, she was woken up by the phone ringing.Rosalie opened her eyes in a daze and answered the phone without looking at who was calling."Miss Jacobs, are you up? There may be something I need to trouble you to come over for."Xander's voice rang out the moment the call connected.Hearing Xander's voice, Rosalie abruptly sobered up before asking him with a frown, "What happened?"She did not interact with Xander much on a personal level. Hence, all Rosalie could think of that would make Xander come looking for her was the partnership. Otherwise, it was also a medical matter.The matters that were related to these two were not trivial ones.On the other end, Xander said in a deep voice, "Do you remember the little boy named Pippin from the last fre
Chapter 689 A Head Splitting Problem
"Hello."Seeing these two cute and sensible little children, Xander's tone also became very gentle.The boys straightened up and looked up at their mommy in confusion, not knowing who the person in front of them was.Rosalie introduced him with a smile, "This is Uncle Xander, mommy's work partner."After hearing mommy's introduction, the boys greeted Xander in their childlike voice again, "Hello, Uncle Xander!"Xander stepped forward and patted the boys’ heads. "I came in a hurry and didn't expect to meet you two. I should have brought you some gifts. I will make it up to you two next time."The boys nodded obediently. "Thank you, uncle."Xander smiled at the children before getting up and glancing at Rosalie, signaling that they should be on their way. Rosalie nodded. She turned around and said to the boys, "Mommy and uncle are leaving now. You two should head back in quickly."After saying that, she and Xander got into the car.The boys waited until Xander's car disappeare
Chapter 690 Do You Know That Uncle
The boys were used to life where Rosalie would leave early and return late ever since they were young. They were also very capable of taking care of themselves.After discussing Xander for a while, they washed up quickly and then warmed up some milk and bread for themselves for breakfast.The doorbell abruptly rang just as they were done eating. The boys looked at each other vigilantly. They switched on the videophone and took a look, only to see Estie waving at them through the camera sweetly. Seeing her, smiles appeared on the boys' faces as well and they hurriedly opened the door for Estie.Byron was standing at the door, dressed in a suit and leather shoes. He was holding Estie's hand.Seeing the man that they had been discussing just now, Nox could not help but feel a little guilty as he stood there awkwardly.Fortunately, Lucian was calm and politely greeted, "Uncle Byron, you're early, Estie too.""Morning, Lu, No!" Estie was in a good mood seeing the two brothers earl
Chapter 691 Who Was She With?
Hearing the child’s reply, Byron’s eyes dimmed slightly.When it was about treating a sick child, it could be either Xander Lancer or Leon Martin.“Do you remember what that uncle looked like?” Byron asked the kids with a tinge of hope.As he asked this, the two brothers looked at each other. Nox kept quiet conscientiously, deciding to let his older brother answer.Lucian replied earnestly, “We only know that the uncle was quite handsome. He also has a good relationship with Mommy.”The little one just wanted to discreetly warn his Daddy that Mommy was very popular. Hopefully, this would get him to speed up his courting of Mommy.He did not realize that his Daddy and Mommy had some misunderstanding due to two other uncles.Hearing what the boy said, Byron’s speculation about Rosalie's relationship with the two men became more intense.He had intended to ask further, but upon seeing the clueless looks on the two brothers, Byron frowned and gave up. He asked instead, “How will yo
Chapter 692 That Was Unbecoming
At the same time, Rosalie and Xander also arrived at the hospital.The orphanage director was already waiting in the hall, and when he saw them arriving, he immediately took them to Pippin's ward.There was a doctor treating Pippin who seemed to be from the Lancer family.As soon as he saw Xander, the doctor stood up and greeted, "Young Master Xander."Xander nodded in response. "How’s his situation?"From the doctor's face, he seemed a little flustered. "His fever is becoming serious, and he has diarrhea now. As for his diagnosis, I haven't figured it out yet."Hearing this, Xander turned his head to look at the woman beside him.After entering the ward, Rosalie's eyes stayed on the little child on the hospital bed.Seeing the little one’s pale complexion, Rosalie was very distressed.As Xander turned to face her, she immediately nodded to him, indicating that she was ready to get to work at any time.Upon seeing this, Xander said to the doctor, "This is Dr. Jacobs. She trea
Chapter 693 Much Better Than Her
There was no room for delay.Rosalie forced herself to calm down, asked Xander for acupuncture tools, and started acupuncture on the little boy immediately to stabilize his condition.Fortunately, this was not the first time the boy had experienced this. The boy did not show any fear from the slender silver needles in Rosalie's hand.Rosalie still remembered that the little guy's acupuncture points were quite special, and the boy was still ill, so Rosalie was extra careful when pricking the needles.When the acupuncture treatment finally ended, Rosalie was already sweating profusely."I just spoke with Pippin's attending doctor."Xander's voice rang in the ward.Hearing this, Rosalie's heart tightened slightly. She turned to look at him. "How is it? Did you discover any useful information?"Xander frowned and responded, "I only know that Pippin seems to be malnourished."When he said that, Rosalie's brows also furrowed.The two of them invariably looked at the orphanage direc
Chapter 694 Indulge Me And Have A Meal With Me
With a breakthrough in the treatment, the atmosphere in the ward suddenly relaxed.The little one also saw that he would recover quickly and thanked Rosalie with a smile, "Thank you... Auntie."Hearing the boy’s weak voice, the smile on Rosalie's face became a little heavy. "Don’t mention it. This is what I should do. Besides, it must be harder to be sick, right?" The little boy nodded shyly, his little face still a little nervous.Apart from the director and the other orphans, it was the first time that someone cared so much about him.What more such a beautiful lady?She reminded him of his mother.Rosalie patted the little boy's head soothingly. "I’ve prescribed you some medicine. You have to take them to get better soon. However, after you leave the hospital, you must eat well. Even if you don't feel like it, you have to force yourself to eat. Otherwise, you’ll feel sick like this in the future, do you understand?" The little boy nodded obediently.Seeing that the little
