The little ones finished speaking, and then glanced at Byron anxiously. They hoped Daddy would say something.Rosalie noticed their eyes as they stayed on Byron for a second. The man did not appear to speak, which made her feel strange in some way."Mommy has made an appointment with Uncle Xander, so I can’t be late." After a while, Rosalie looked away, and looked at the little ones, her tone was deeply apologetic.From Mommy’s persistence, the little ones knew that they could not stop her, and their faces were all disappointed.Rosalie felt apologetic in her heart over the disappointment etched on their little faces, but she had no choice. She gently touched their heads and said, "When you complete it, remember to leave a little for me so I can taste your baked goodies."After that, she turned and walked towards the door.Just two steps away, she heard the man's voice behind him."Since Miss Jacobs is leaving, let's make the cake another day."Byron put down the mixer in his h
When the cake batter was ready, and the little ones coated butter cream on it.The three little ones had their own ideas. Rosalie simply divided the cake into three areas, and asked the three little ones to draw their own areas.The little ones took it seriously and drew on them carefully.Rosalie glanced at the clock from time to time. It was almost time for her appointment with Xander, but the kids had not finished drawing yet.Thinking of the unpleasantness just now, Rosalie did not dare to urge, so she could only worry silently."I’m done!" Estie said first.The other two little guys followed closely behind, and looked up at the adults, wanting some compliments as well.Rosalie suppressed the anxiety in her heart, smiled at the little guys, walked to the dining table, and glanced at the little ones' masterpieces.Except for the part painted by Estie, the paintings of the two boys were completely messed up, but the boys seemed to be oblivious and proud of their work.Seeing
For a moment, Rosalie did not know how to respond to the little girl's adoration.Granted, she also liked Estie, but she never thought about being her mother.‘After all, the little one has a biological mother. If possible, children should like their biological parents more…’‘Just like Lucian and Nox, although they don't know their true identity, the two boys’ attitude towards Byron was clearly different.’"You really can’t, Auntie?" Estie waited for Rosalie to say something but there was no response. Her hope was lost, and she lowered her eyes in despair.Rosalie felt distressed as she saw the little girl at a loss, but she could only refuse ruthlessly, and explained to the little girl patiently. "Estie darling, one day, you will have your own mommy. And after having your own Mommy, you will find out that liking your own Mommy is different from liking Auntie." The little girl stubbornly clenched her fists, raised her head to look at her, her eyes were full of tears. "Estie onl
Rosalie had been thinking about Estelle and only remembered that Xander was still waiting for her in the research institute when the little ones reminded her.However, Rosalie still glanced at the door with concern. She could not help being worried about the little girl.“Hurry up, Mommy,” the little ones urged in their cute voices.At the same time, Xander’s call came in.Rosalie frowned as she picked up the call. Then, she said apologetically, “I’m sorry. I’ll be there in a while.”Meanwhile, Xander noticed the difference in Rosalie’s tone of voice and asked with concern, “What’s wrong?”Just now, he was already worried when Rosalie suddenly told him she would be half an hour late.Rosalie was about to tell him the reason. However, she heard Old Master Lancer speaking to Yves from the other end of the call.Hearing Old Master Lancer’s voice, Rosalie hesitated for a moment. Then, she smiled and said, “Nothing. I’ll head there now.”Xander wanted to show his concern, but Rosal
Hearing her father’s words, the little one nodded obediently.Byron bent down and picked up the little one. Then, he walked back to Rosalie’s house.They saw Rosalie’s car driving from the residential area before them when they were at her door.Byron knew it was Rosalie’s car, which increased his displeasure with the situation.Estelle had been crying because of her, yet she only cared about her appointment with Xander.It made Byron wonder if work was more important to her.The two little ones waited for a long time in the living room and did not see Estelle. Hence, they opened the door anxiously and wanted to go and look for her.Unexpectedly, as soon as they opened the door, they saw their father outside. He was holding Estelle, who had just run out. He looked unhappy.Seeing the brothers opening the door and coming out, Estelle peeped into the living room, expecting to see Rosalie. Unfortunately, things did not turn out as Estelle had hoped.“Where’s Auntie?” The little o
Meanwhile, at Rosalie’s house, Nox and Lucian eagerly took a variety of toys to Estie and put a table of snacks before her. Then, they sat beside Estelle.Estelle drooped her eyes with her cheeks puffed. She looked moody.The little boys looked at Estelle, and they looked at each other. They felt helpless, but they had promised their mommy they would coax Estelle for her.Thinking of this, the little ones had no choice but to crack their brains to find a way.After a long while, Lucian took a piece of tissue and handed it to Estelle. Then, he spoke with his cute voice, “Estie, don’t cry. If you like Mommy, you must try your best to help Daddy win Mommy’s heart!”Lucian’s words attracted Estelle’s attention. She pursed her lips and looked at him.Lucian wiped Estelle’s tears off her face and frowned. “We want to pull Mr. Byron and Mommy’s relationship closer, but Mr. Byron seems mad at Mommy again.”Nox said, “It’s Mommy’s fault. However, if Mr. Byron is still mad at Mommy, our p
After Old Master Lancer and Rosalie greeted each other, they discussed the project. Rosalie took over Yves’ job and showed Old Master Lancer around the rest of the departments in the research institute.Soon, it was noon, and the visit ended. Rosalie booked a table at the restaurant, and they headed for lunch.“You mentioned something that came up before you came. What happened?”When they walked out of the research institute, Xander casually approached Rosalie and asked with concern. “You were late. The Dr. Jacobs I know is always punctual.”Rosalie smiled. “Nothing serious. The kids were throwing a tantrum.”Xander did not think much about it. He put on an understanding smile as he nodded. “I understand it’s difficult to have kids at home.”Old Master Lancer turned around and looked at them. “What are you talking about that you have to whisper?”Rosalie and Xander laughed and approached Old Master Xander to walk by his side.Yves was not familiar with Xander and Old Master La
The rumors on the internet had spread widely. Yves could only post some statements on behalf of the research institute, yet they did not help much.However, the rumors gradually faded out of a sudden. The situation even changed after Quentin’s interview the following day.Now that Yves knew it was Byron who resolved the situation, he felt petty and low that he could not even help Rosalie.Uneasiness overpowered him when he recalled the midnight when he saw Byron in Rosalie’s house.He could guess the relationship between Rosalie and Byron was more intimate than expected since Byron was in her house at hours like that.Aware of this, Yves felt the pressure of possibly losing the chance to win Rosalie’s heart.He always thought that he could silently accompany Rosalie.However, when he saw Rosalie with other men and became aware of the fact that she might even probably be dating someone, he knew he might not even stand a fair chance to get Rosalie. It made him realize he was not a
