The little ones were distressed as they thought about Estelle crying.“Daddy won’t let us visit her,” Nox complained in his cute voice.Lucian retorted, “He’s not stopping us from visiting Estie.”Nox looked at his brother in a puzzle.Lucian looked in the direction of the kitchen and said, “Daddy doesn’t want Mommy to visit Estie.”Nox was startled for a few seconds before he understood what Lucian was saying. Then, he put on a long face.He had no idea what had happened between Mommy and Daddy.Nox even wondered why their daddy was so mad because of what happened the day before.Even Estelle had forgiven their mommy.Rosalie was also absent-minded in the kitchen.In the first call from Byron, Rosalie heard Estelle’s cry.The little girl was crying so loudly.She even heard the little one calling out to her.However…Rosalie regretted thinking about the choice had made.If she knew that it was her only chance to meet Estelle and Byron would refuse to let her meet Estell
Lucian frowned and hesitated. Then, he glanced upstairs.He always considered things from more aspects than Nox.Their mommy was already upset because of Estelle. It would worry their mommy more if they headed to Mr. Byron’s place without letting her know.Nox tried to convince Lucian. He whispered, “Besides, who knows how Estie will be doing when she wakes up? If she sees us, it’ll make her feel better. We can also tell her that Mommy is worried about her.”Lucian was moved upon listening to Nox’s reasons. After a while, he made up his mind.The little ones quietly opened the door and sneaked out of the villa. They ran to the roadside and hailed a taxi straight to Lawrence Manor.When the driver saw only two kids getting into his car, he did not dare to drive them. He asked, “Kids, where are your parents?”“We’re going to Daddy’s place,” Lucian answered. “Mommy gave us money.”The driver felt relieved and started the car engine. He drove to the place Lucian and Nox mentioned.
Mrs. Zora quickly appeased Estelle. “It’s okay, Little Lady. Rest well. I’ll help you make the swelling go away.”Estelle nodded her head and buried her face in her daddy’s shoulder.Byron looked at Estelle in his arms, and his gaze gradually turned gloomy.It took some time for Estelle to fully awake from her sleep and recall what had happened before she dozed off.“Daddy,” Estelle tugged her Daddy’s shirt. “Where’s Auntie?”She remembered that Lucas had told her Rosalie would visit her soon when she was falling asleep. Byron never expected Estelle to mention Rosalie so abruptly. He looked away and did not know how to answer his daughter.If the little one knew Rosalie was not here because he had stopped Rosalie from visiting her, the little one would feel sad. She might even cry again.However, he could not lie to the little girl.“Auntie hasn’t come yet?” Estelle looked at Mrs. Zora naively.Mrs. Zora recalled Rosalie’s attempts to visit Estelle and subconsciously glanced
The little one drooped her eyes and buried herself in her daddy’s arms. She thought that Auntie’s scent was more comfortable compared to her Daddy’s.Byron sneered deep inside him.The little girl was so fond of Rosalie because she was her biological mother, and they had some connections pulling them together.He wondered if Rosalie had the same feelings for the little girl.However, he denied that thought. Rosalie would not have chosen work instead of Estelle if she cared about Estelle.“Can you not regret it, Daddy?” Estelle thought of the call that made her feel sad and carefully requested, “I want Auntie to be my mommy.”When the little one mentioned this, it reminded Byron of the call.Hearing the little girl asking the same question again, Byron fell into deep silence for a few seconds.The anger in him made him want to reject Estelle’s request, but recalling what Lucas had reminded him of, he calmed down.Finally, after suppressing his anger, he answered vaguely, “I won
There was no one on the screen.“Who is it?” Mrs. Zora asked in a puzzle.After a while, a cute voice came from outside. “Mrs. Zora, we’re Lucian and Nox. Can you please open the door so we can see Estie?”As they spoke, they went on tiptoes. Mrs. Zora saw two similar pairs of eyes through the screen.Mrs. Zora had gone to Rosalie’s place to take care of the kids for some time and remembered those kids.Mrs. Zora’s heart melted upon hearing the little ones’ voices. However, she remembered Byron’s order and turned around to get his permission.Noticing Mrs. Zora had not answered them, they quickly added, “We came by ourselves. Mommy isn’t with us!”Both Byron and Estelle heard those words.Byron frowned and nodded at Mrs. Zora, beckoning her to open the gate for the little ones.Meanwhile, Estelle was a little disappointed, and the anticipation in her eyes faded.She thought Auntie had come looking for her.‘Why isn’t Auntie here? Even Lucian and Nox have come to visit,’ Este
Emotions were boiling within Byron when he watched the little ones head upstairs.Just now, the two little ones said Rosalie told them to come.Rosalie had been calling him all day, and he had declined her calls.He thought Rosalie would give up after sensing his anger.However, he did not expect she would use the little ones to deal with him. She first asked them to call him and then sent them to visit Estelle.He had to admit Rosalie was getting smarter.It was just that since she had even sent the little ones, why did she not visit Estelle too?She knew he would not be able to stop them from coming into his house if she came with the little ones.Byron wondered if Rosalie was mad at him.However, he did not think she had the right to be mad.“Sir,” Mrs. Zora could sense Byron’s anger, so she asked cautiously, “I’ll bring some snacks for the kids to eat.”Byron snapped out of his thoughts when he heard Mrs. Zora’s voice and suppressed his boiling emotions.“I’ll do it.” H
“Mr. Byron.”Thinking that they had almost exposed Daddy’s lies, Lucian and Nox greeted Byron while feeling guilty.Byron nodded and glanced at the little ones.The little ones felt Byron was warning them from a distance, and they tried to put on their best attitude.They could see that their daddy wanted them to stop saying anything they should not say.Noticing the little ones understood what he meant, Byron nodded slightly and put the snacks on the table for them.“Call Mrs. Zora if you need anything. I have something to deal with at the moment.”The three kids nodded all at once.Byron said nothing and left the room.He had been so preoccupied with Rosalie that he had forgotten to remind the little ones.Therefore, Byron came to give them the snacks instead of letting Mrs. Zora do it.Looking at the closed bedroom door, Lucian and Nox heaved a sigh of relief.Their daddy’s gaze was scary.Estelle had forgotten what she had asked because Byron interrupted. She handed th
“Did they take their watches when they left?”Mary was calmer and frowned as she asked Rosalie.Rosalie realized that and regretted it.So many things were going on today that she immediately panicked when she found out the little ones were missing. Fortunately, she had gone to look for Mary first.After Mary reminded her about the smartwatches, Rosalie decided to call the little ones at once.There was no answer even after the call went through for a while.Rosalie tried Nox’s number instead, but he did not answer either.Mary’s and Rosalie’s hearts sank when they could not reach the little ones.There were so many possibilities why the little ones did not answer her calls.They thought of the worst…Rosalie clenched her fist and calmed herself down. Then, she checked the little ones’ location through her phone.Looking at the green dots on her phone, Rosalie heaved a sigh of relief.Fortunately, they could still locate the little ones.“I’ll drive,” Mary saw the dots o
