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
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
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
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
He had hinted in every possible way to get this invitation.Even so, the smile on the woman’s face in front of him still made Xander happy, and he immediately agreed.Although Rosalie extended the invitation, the driver was Xander, and he chose where to eat.At the door of the restaurant, Rosalie was a little surprised.With Xander's worth, she thought that Xander would take her to some high-end restaurant.She did not expect to see a vintage local diner in front of her. Although the decoration inside was quite stylish, it was not expensive. Most of the customers inside were ordinary office workers."I'm used to eating local food at home. I don't know if this suits your taste, Miss Jacobs," Xander asked with a smile.Rosalie turned around and smiled at him. "To be honest, I’ve been eating local food during my years abroad."Hearing this, Xander raised his eyebrows with a smile. "Really? I thought that you would be more used to eating international cuisines abroad." The two en
When Rosalie saw that it was noon, she suddenly remembered that she forgot to tell the two boys about lunch when she left."Sorry, I need to make a call." Realizing this, Rosalie got up apologetically and excused herself with Xander.Xander was puzzled, but he did not ask more. He nodded and watched her get up and go to an empty corner.At the same time, Lucian and Nox were watching TV with Estie at home when they heard the landline ring. They hurriedly got up to pick up the phone.After they returned to Somerland, only Mommy would call the landline at home.Nox glanced at Estie beside him, then took initiative to say, "Mommy! When are you coming back? Little Estie came to our house! We’re playing with her!"After speaking, the little boy handed over the receiver to Estie’s ear.Knowing that it was Rosalie, Estie’s eyes squinted into curved lines from smiling hard. Her voice was sweet. "Auntie!"When she heard their little voices, Rosalie's heart softened. "Why is Estie here?"
Mary was stunned for a moment when she heard the little one’s impish voice, her eyes full of emotion.She remembered that the last time they met, the little girl had refused to open her mouth. During dinner, others even said that she was non-verbal.Mary never expected when they met again, the little one had changed so much. Not only did she speak, but her voice was lovely and her laughter was soft and sweet.Seeing such a cute little girl in front of her, Mary could not help but pat the little girl's head with a smile. “You’re so sweet.”Estie smiled until her eyes turned into crescent lines. When Mary got up from her, she turned her eyes to the takeaway on the table again, her little face was full of curiosity.Throughout her sheltered childhood, the little girl had only eaten food prepared by her caretaker in the family. If not, it was her Grandma herself who personally prepared her food. She didn't even know what takeout was, let alone what a family bucket was.Seeing that th
Rosalie still could not believe her ears. She was stunned for a few seconds before smiling gratefully. "Then it’s better to accept deferentially than to decline courteously. I’ll do my best for this cooperation."Xander raised the teacup in front of him. "Then I'll drink tea in place of wine now. Thank you on behalf of all the partners. Cheers.” Rosalie smiled and clinked her cup with his, thinking of how Xander had helped her during this period. She was overwhelmed with a burst of gratitude in her heart.She must say that every time she met with Xander and Leon, they always had endless topics to talk about.Perhaps this was the advantage of being in the same industry!Thinking of this, Rosalie could not help but think of another man.Every time she was with Byron, their conversations always ended unpleasantly...Thinking of Byron, the smile on Rosalie's face also faded.Xander was paying attention to the person in front of him and saw the change in her expression. Although he
