Chapter 89 They Aren’t Married Yet
When they went downstairs, the old master had already asked Rosalie if he could get off his bed before letting Andrius and the butler help him down. Rosalie lowered her gaze and sat by the dining table as if there was nothing wrong. She was trying her best to lower her presence. Andrea seemed to be deliberately raising different topics to talk about, and she would ask for Wendy’s opinion before moving on to her. The old master was present, so she still answered everything. Not long after, the butler’s voice came from the main entrance. “Young Master Lawrence.”What followed was Byron’s short response. A moment later, the man’s slender figure appeared in front of the crowd. “Old Man Quirke,” Byron greeted Old Master Quirke first, then glanced around the dining table. He paused for a moment when he saw Rosalie. Facing his gaze, Rosalie secretly clenched her palm and nodded at him calmly as a greeting. Byron raised his brows a little and pursed his lips in response. “
Chapter 90 Will Get Married When She Meets The Right One
Wendy had been paying attention to Byron’s expression. After noticing how he looked at that woman when this topic was brought up, jealousy flushed through her mind. “It’s no rush.” Byron’s eyes were locked on the person in front of him. ‘Let’s see if this woman can still be so calm after hearing such an answer!’Hearing such words, Rosalie was stunned for a brief moment and was relieved right after. ‘They’ll still be married either way. It’s just a matter of time. Why should I be surprised?’After thinking this way, Rosalie lowered her head once again and continued eating as if the interaction earlier had nothing to do with her. Wendy found it strange to hear such an answer. Previously when she mentioned to him about getting married, the man had made it quite clear that he wanted to call it off. Now, things had changed. Old Master Quirke was obviously dissatisfied with Byron’s answer and wanted to convince him further. Noticing that, Wendy quickly responded, “It’s not l
Chapter 91 She’d Be More Than Happy
After dinner, the Old Master went upstairs to rest.Rosalie followed him upstairs and gave him another check-up. Once she came back downstairs, she bid everyone goodbye.Andrius said, “It’s late. Why don’t I send you home?”Rosalie declined with a smile. “It’s alright. You have other guests, so you should stay and keep them company.Andrius did not continue to insist. He simply said, “In that case, have a safe trip home. Oh, and don’t take my grandfather’s words to heart. He’s getting older now, so he’s always worried about these pointless things.”Rosalie smiled, then turned and left.“It’s late and I still have work to take care of. I have to take my leave too,” Byron said in his low voice as he watched Rosalie walk out of the villa.Alarms rang in Wendy’s head, and she quickly stood up to leave as well. “I was just going to head out myself. Let’s go together.”Byron rejected her calmly. “No, it’s fine. We’re heading in opposite directions. See you.”He turned and left witho
Chapter 92 Estie Isn’t Feeling Well
As soon as she said that, a silence fell over the car.Rosalie realized what she had just said and regretted it, so she lowered her gaze and stayed silent.Byron stared at her side profile intently, an unreadable look in his eyes.Was she really so averse to him? How could she blatantly try to push him onto Wendy like that?After a moment, he said coldly, “She’s busy, so she won’t be leaving any time soon.”Rosalie gripped the steering wheel angrily.Wendy was too busy to send him home, so why was she obligated to?Still, the person next to her would not be moved. No matter what she said, he would not get out of the car so easily.Rosalie had no choice but to start up the car again and drive away from the Quirkes’ villa.At the same time, Wendy strode out of the door. When she caught a glimpse of Byron’s face in the rearview mirror, her expression immediately turned ugly.As Rosalie’s car disappeared into the distance, she hurriedly jumped into her car and followed them.Onc
Chapter 93 She’ll Feel Better If She Sees You
Rosalie had vaguely overheard Mrs. Zora’s words over the phone. She was a little worried to hear that Estie was not feeling well too.As soon as she heard Byron’s request, she turned the car around and sped up toward Lawrence Manor.Twenty minutes later, the car came to a gradual stop outside Lawrence Manor.Rosalie was worried about the little girl, so she looked at the man beside her rather anxiously. “Take care of Estie, and feel free to call me anytime if you need me.”Byron looked at her meaningfully. “If you’re so worried, why don’t you come in with me? Besides, Estie obviously adores you. She’s unwell now, but she’ll probably feel better if she sees you.”With that, he opened the door and stepped out of the car, heading toward the manor on his own.He seemed to be telling her that it was up to her whether she wanted to go inside or not. He would not force her either way.Rosalia frowned slightly as she watched him walk away.If Estie was feeling unwell, shouldn’t he ask
Chapter 94 What On Earth Did He See In Her
Her thoughts coming back to the present, Rosalie suppressed the strange feeling in her chest and approached the three people in the manor.Estie had a fever right now, but her eyes were still bright. When she saw Rosalie, her eyes seemed to sparkle as she stared intently at Rosalie.Rosalie gave her a concerned look.Estie immediately held out her hands for Rosalie.The latter instinctively glanced at Byron.Seriously, this little girl… She was sick, but she wanted a stranger to hold her over her father’s embrace.Rosalie wondered what Byron would think.The man simply offered Estie to her calmly.Rosalie hesitated for a second before taking the little girl from him.As soon as she held her, she could feel the girl’s warmth. Estie felt like a tiny heater in her arms.Estie plastered her face against the pretty auntie’s. Rosalie felt nice and cool, and Estie narrowed her eyes happily.“Her fever’s pretty high.” Rosalie held the little girl a bit tighter and asked her gently,
Chapter 95 Don’t Go, Auntie
Seeing Rosalie, Byron, and Estie together, Mrs. Zora grew even more nostalgic for the good old days. Thinking she wanted to give them some time alone, she exchanged a few pleasantries with them before quietly stepping away.All of a sudden, the three of them were alone in the living room.Byron looked at Rosalie and Estie, his gaze dark.Sensing his eyes on her, Rosalie turned away and carried Estie to the couch, trying to put her down.Estie could tell what she was planning to do, and her large eyes screamed her displeasure. She held on tight to Rosalie’s shoulders, refusing to let go.Rosalie had no choice but to sit down on the couch, comforting her gently, “Estie, good girl, you’re sick. You should sleep early. I’ll tuck you in, okay?”Estie buried her face in the crook of Rosalie’s neck and shook her head wordlessly.Rosalie frowned slightly. “Do you not want to sleep?”The girl in her arms nodded and turned around in her embrace, reaching out her hand for a little noteboo
Chapter 96 The Age Difference Of The Kids
Just when she started taking care of Estie, the phone in her bag rang.Rosalie Jacobs instinctively covered the little girl’s ears afraid of waking her up. She was about to get her bag but noticed that the man had already stood up and brought her mobile phone."Thank you," Rosalie whispered. She glanced at the caller ID and felt vexed. She was so preoccupied with the little one in her arms and actually forgotten about the two boys at home."Mommy!" As soon as the call was connected, the voices of the twins rang out, "When are you coming back?"Rosalie lowered her voice, "There is a delay tonight, I will be late tonight. Now, have you had dinner?"The two little boys sounded very concerned, "We've eaten, how about you, Mommy? Don't just think about work, you have to take care of yourself too!"Rosalie's heart was moved by their concern. She smiled, "Don’t worry, I've eaten too. Don't wait for me, go rest early.""Alright, Mommy. Come back early, don't exhaust yourself too much!
