Chapter 746 No One Noticed
Wendy was already sitting at the dining table downstairs.Seeing the two come down, Wendy looked at Estie with an apologetic expression on her face. "Estie, I'm sorry. I seem to have said something wrong just now."Estie grabbed Byron's hand and looked up at her father, seeking confirmation from him if she could really ignore that woman.Byron stroked the little girl's head soothingly and brought the little one closer to him.Neither father nor daughter paid any attention to Wendy.For a while, the atmosphere at the table seemed very stiff.Wendy watched the father and daughter eat together. They did not even look her way. It was as if she did not exist. She was livid inside but could not vent it. Furthermore, she had to please the little b*tch."Estie, come. You’re still young, so eat a little more to grow taller." Wendy smiled and gave the little girl a piece of meat.Looking at the extra piece of meat on her plate, the little girl's movements paused.Byron deeply frowned, t
Chapter 747 I Drank Too Much Just Now
In the study, Byron was burying himself in all the unfinished work from the day. Suddenly, he heard footsteps coming from the door.A moment later, there was a loud knock on the door.He looked away from the computer screen, frowning at the door.The servants of Lawrence Manor would already be resting at this time. No one would come to the study to disturb his work that easily.‘Not to mention knocking on the door so loudly.‘Come to think of it, the person at the door can only be Wendy.‘I don't know what the hell is going on with that woman.’The knocking on the door continued. Byron had finally coaxed Estie to sleep and did not want the little one to be woken up by the noise, so he got up and opened the door in the end.As soon as he opened the door, he saw a drunk woman at the door.It was uncertain how much she drank, but the alcohol stench hit his face and wafted into the study.Byron frowned in displeasure at the sight of her and said solemnly, "You've drunk too much.
Chapter 748 Could Not Maintain That Smile
The next morning, Byron had just woken up when he heard a careful little knock on the door.The only one who would knock on his door was his own little girl.Byron went over to open the door, and sure enough, he saw the little one standing eagerly at his bedroom door.As he stepped out, the little one greeted him in her impish voice, "Morning, Daddy!" He nodded lightly and patted her head. "You’re up so early today. What's the matter?"The little one glanced at Wendy's room in the corner of her eyes, then looked up at her father. "I want to visit Auntie! Daddy, can you take me there?"She really did not want to stay around Mean Auntie, even if it was just for breakfast. The little girl did not want to.Hearing this, Byron frowned.He knew what the little girl was thinking and could understand his daughter.However, he had a very important meeting this morning. If he sent the little one before heading over to the company, it might be too late.Thinking of this, Byron lowered
Chapter 749 Showed Fear
Estie shivered at Wendy's terrifying face and wanted to turn around to get her daddy, but alas, she was caught by Wendy at the wrist and could not break free.Wendy looked at the little one in front of her icily. "If you don't want to suffer, you’d better listen to me. Don't make me angry! Do you understand?!"...In the bathroom, Byron gave Rosalie a phone call after his shower.That woman had always been a workaholic. He was afraid that after Luther sent Estie over, the little one would throw a fit if she did not see the woman again.Fortunately, the call was quickly answered on the other end."Byron, hey. What’s up?"Rosalie's voice sounded a little confused. She should have just woken up, or maybe she was woken up by his phone call.Thinking of this, a smile appeared in Byron's eyes. He apologized warmly. "I’m sorry to have woken you up."Rosalie yawned softly and sat up from the bed. "It's nothing. I should be getting up at this time, but I accidentally slept in. What abo
Chapter 750 Friendly Smile
After a short while, Byron took Estie downstairs.Wendy was already sitting at the dining table.Wendy watched the father and daughter come down. She suppressed the dissatisfaction in her heart, smiled at the two, and pointed to the seat beside her. "Estie, come. I’ll take care of you during breakfast."She thought after those threats earlier, the little one would submit and be obedient to her.She did not expect the little one to completely ignore her smile. She grabbed hold of the hem of Byron’s shirt and followed her father all the way until the man lifted the little one to the seat beside him.As the father and daughter ignored her completely, Wendy's expression froze."Byron, are you going to go to work in a while?" After a few seconds, Wendy persevered.Byron nodded noncommittally.Seeing that there was still some response from him, Wendy's anger eased. She said with a smile, "Estie, I’ll accompany you today! We’ll definitely have a lot of fun together!" As soon as she
Chapter 751 I’ll Hand Estie Over To You
On the way to the company, Byron looked at his daughter in the rearview mirror and frowned."I’ll send you there," Byron spoke.He wanted Luther to send Estie over later, but looking at the current state of the little one, if he asked Luther to send her over, he was afraid Luther would not be able to handle it.After that, Byron immediately called Luther.The other party quickly picked up. "Master, how long until you arrive?"Byron frowned. "Postpone the morning meeting for a while."Hearing this, Luther was stunned for a moment.‘The morning meeting is very important, but the young master wants it to be postponed just like that…’"Just postpone it for about an hour." Byron added, "I’m sending Estie somewhere."Luther agreed.After so many years, he had become accustomed to it. His young master would do anything for the little lady. After hanging up the phone, Byron turned around and drove in the direction of Rosalie's house.Wendy was sitting in the taxi that was followin
Chapter 752 It Can't Go On Like This
Byron looked at the crooked lipstick line on the woman's mouth. He found it humorous.It seemed that this woman was still dazed when she put on makeup, and she did not even know that her lipstick was crooked.When he met her gaze, the expression on the woman's face was full of confusion. He just wanted to tease her.Thinking of this, Byron acted.Rosalie saw the man suddenly raising his hand and reaching toward her face.Seeing that his hand was about to touch her face, Rosalie snapped back to her senses, took a step back in a panic, and avoided the range that Byron could reach.Byron's outstretched hand came empty, and he raised his eyebrows with dissatisfaction."Is there anything else, President Lawrence?" Rosalie looked at him distantly.Seeing the flustered appearance of the woman, Byron’s eyes flashed with a hint of victory. He explained indifferently, "Your lipstick is crooked."Hearing this, Rosalie's face turned slightly red, and she lowered her head consciously to av
Chapter 753 Lancer Family Acquisition
On the other hand, after Byron left Rosalie's home, he went back to the company and arrived on time for the scheduled meeting.After the meeting, Byron came out of the conference room when he saw Luther approach him from a distance. His face was flustered. "Master."Byron frowned slightly. "What's wrong?"Luther's face was troubled. "There’s something wrong with the project we’re cooperating with Quirke Enterprise on."Hearing this, his expression darkened, and he strode back to the office.Luther silently followed behind his boss into the office, then turned around and closed the door."What's wrong?" Byron asked in a deep voice.Before that, their cooperation with Quirke Enterprise had been smooth.Luther explained, "The pharmaceutical company in the northwest suddenly withdrew from this cooperation and doesn’t intend to accept our acquisition conditions."Hearing this, Byron’s eyebrows suddenly twitched.The acquisition of that pharmaceutical company was an extremely impor
