Chapter 858 That’s Not What I Meant
Xander smiled and said nothing.The 1.2 billion Xander had given last night was enough for Director Spiros to say this.Therefore, he calmly accepted Director Spiros’ humble attitude.Rosalie had no idea what had happened between the two men and quietly followed behind Xander.The three of them had just walked out of Heronial Corporation when Rosalie’s phone rang suddenly.The two men in front of her stopped and looked back at her.Rosalie smiled apologetically at the two of them. She took out her phone and glanced at it. When she saw the caller ID, she froze.“What’s the matter? Are the kids unwell?” Xander looked concerned.Rosalie was startled. Then, she casually rejected the call as she smiled and said, “It’s nothing. It shouldn’t be anything important. Let’s sign the contract first.”Xander and the others did not think too much and continued walking.Rosalie had taken only two steps when her phone rang again.When Rosalie saw the caller ID, her heart sank. Then, she tol
Chapter 859 Would She Feel Guilty?
“Miss Jacobs.”Just as Rosalie hesitated to rush to Lawrence Manor, Xander approached her with a set of documents.Rosalie had to put away her worries and approach him. “What is this…?”Xander said, “I noticed you took quite some time talking on the phone, so I brought the documents that you need to check over. Take a look and sign it if you think everything is okay.”Rosalie agreed. She checked the documents. After a while, she nodded and said, “There’s no problem.”Xander smiled. “Alright then. You don’t look well. Do you have something important going on?”Rosalie recalled how badly the little girl was crying and was absent-minded.“Miss Jacobs?” Xander noticed Rosalie was not paying attention and called out to her.Rosalie turned around and smiled apologetically at him. “These are the herbs we need. Is there anything else I can help you with?”Xander shook his head.Rosalie decided to leave without hesitation. “I’ll leave the rest to you, then, Young Master Xander. I have
Chapter 860 The Little One Was Not Feeling Well
Rosalie headed straight from Heronial Corporation to Lawrence Manor.Rosalie pulled over her car at the manor’s gate in 20 minutes.Rosalie rang the doorbell anxiously.Soon, Mrs. Zora turned on the intercom.“Ma...” Mrs. Zora almost blurted out her usual way of addressing Rosalie when she saw her, but she quickly changed it when she realized what she was saying, “Miss Jacobs.”Estelle’s sad cry filled Rosalie’s mind, and she could not care about anything else. “Mrs. Zora, please let me in. How’s Estelle now?”Looking at Rosalie’s anxious expression, Mrs. Zora let out a silent sigh. “You came too late. Master has already taken Little Lady out.”Rosalie froze when she heard Mrs. Zora’s answer.She thought Byron was only saying that because he was angry.However, she did not expect him to be so ruthless.Estelle might still be crying because she had not seen her.Rosalie snapped out of her thought upon thinking of this. She humbly asked, “Do you know where Byron took Estelle t
Chapter 861 Daddy Lied
Soon, Byron pulled over his car in front of Lucas’ psychiatric clinic.Lucas was already at the door waiting because Byron had called him on the way there.Byron got out of the car and wanted to carry Estelle out of the car.The little one was still crying. When Estelle saw her daddy reaching out to her, she struggled out of his grip.“I’ll carry her.”Lucas approached Estelle and stretched out his hands. “Estie, come to Uncle.”Estelle was still crying as she shook her head. She sobbed. “I want Auntie…”Lucas frowned and looked at Byron in a puzzle.Byron had only told him Estelle was crying non-stop through the phone but had not told him what had happened.Their eyes met, and Byron frowned. Then, he spoke, “Let’s go in and talk about it.”Lucas nodded and tried to coax Estelle again. “Auntie will be here soon. Why don’t you come into the clinic with uncle first?”Hearing this, Estelle stared at Lucas suspiciously for a long time.As a professional psychologist, Lucas show
Chapter 862 Do You Like Auntie Very Much?
“Is that so?” Lucas looked at the little one in his arms.Estie shook her head vigorously.Apparently, the reason why Estie was crying was not what Byron had told Lucas initially. It was what he had just said. Lucas looked at the man opposite him helplessly. “I can’t help you if you refuse to tell me everything.”Byron was also shocked.He did not try to hide anything. It was just that he could only think of those possibilities.However, when Lucas questioned him further, Byron knew he might have done something more than that.Realizing this, Byron frowned and began to recall what had happened.Estelle cuddled in Lucas’ arms, looking away from Byron. She looked as though she disliked Byron.Byron suddenly recalled Estelle seemed to have said something to him through the phone that morning before she cried suddenly.‘What did I say to her?’ Byron recalled.Lucas noticed Byron seemed to hesitate to tell him. He frowned and looked at the little one in his embrace.“Estie, wha
Chapter 863 Don’t Provoke Her
Estelle bit her lip and said nothing. Then, she shook her head.She still liked Daddy, but…“Daddy is a liar. Daddy’s bad.”Lucas laughed. “Estie is mad at Daddy, and Daddy is mad at Auntie.”The little one immediately shook her head. “Daddy shouldn’t be mad at Auntie!”Lucas was surprised.He had seen the little one’s affection for Rosalie but had not expected it to be so deep.It must be difficult for Byron.Noticing Estelle was about to go out of control again, Lucas immediately said, “I’ll teach Daddy a lesson and make him realize his mistake.”The little one calmed down a little, but she was still unhappy. “I want Auntie to be my mommy. I don’t want anyone else.”Lucas looked at the door and agreed on behalf of Byron. “Okay. Only Auntie will be your mommy.”Only then did Estelle quiet down and lay on his shoulder, sobbing occasionally.Lucas looked at the little one and gently touched Estelle’s eyelids. “Are you feeling uncomfortable, Estie?”The little one sobbed and
Chapter 864 Care About Her
Byron was a little helpless when he heard what Lucas said.He had never gone against the little one’s will. All this while, he had been trying to get the woman to reunite with them.It was just that he could not win Rosalie’s heart back no matter what he did.She had even approached another man.Byron could never accept that.He had the right to be angry about it.Lucas looked at Byron and said, “According to my observation, Miss Jacobs is a suitable candidate to be Estie’s mother. She cares about Estie. The only problem is she has two kids.”Then, Lucas sipped his tea and asked Byron meaningfully, “Well, you wouldn’t care about the existence of the two other kids, would you?”Byron smiled. “It’s not up to me to decide.”What Byron meant was it was not that he could not accept those two kids.It was Rosalie who would not accept him.Lucas was surprised.He could not believe Rosalie would reject someone like Byron.Lucas snickered upon looking at the irritated expression on
Chapter 865 Crying To See You
On the way to Rosalie’s house, Byron held Estelle in his arms in the backseat while Lucas drove the car.Estelle suddenly muttered something as she frowned.Byron’s forehead creased. He leaned forward to listen to what Estelle was muttering.“Mommy...”The little one murmured. As Estelle sleeptalked, she grabbed tightly onto Byron’s clothes.Even though the little one was still asleep, she was thinking of Rosalie.Hearing the little one’s words and thinking of Rosalie, Byron was in deep thought again.Lucas, who was driving in front, also heard the little one’s mutter and looked at Byron through the rearview mirror as he frowned.Lucas saw Byron looking gloomy through the rearview mirror, and he sighed.“Estie needs a mother. No matter what your feelings for Mis Jacobs are, you shouldn’t stop Estie from meeting Miss Jacobs until you find the love of your life.”Byron’s gaze deepened when he heard Lucas’s comment. He only answered after a while, “I’ll pay attention to it.”Lu
