Chapter 921 I Could Only Apologize
Noticing Byron’s anger, Rosalie looked away, trying to avoid his gaze.“If that’s not the case, I wonder why you’re here, President Lawrence?”Byron glanced at the woman.According to Andrius’ suggestion, he was supposed to ‘timely help’ Rosalie.However, seeing Rosalie’s distant attitude made him reluctant to offer help.The study was dead silent again.Rosalie’s heart sank again.After a while, Rosalie could not bear it anymore and drooped her eyes as she said, “Since we have nothing else to talk about, let’s go out. The kids are waiting.”Then, Rosalie wanted to head to the door.Just as she lifted her leg, a huge hand gripped her wrist.Rosalie had to stop. She frowned and looked at the man beside her.‘What’s wrong with this man? He hasn’t said anything but refuses to let me leave.‘What does he want?’Rosalie could not understand what was going on in Byron’s mind. Impatiently, she struggled, trying to break off his grip.“The information I got was that the fire in y
Chapter 922 That’s Who You Are
His grip hurt Rosalie, and she gasped as she glared at Byron with her beautiful eyes.Byron’s face looked angry and scary.After some time, Byron approached Rosalie step by step.Rosalie tried to back off, but her wrist was in Byron’s grip, and she could not do anything.The two were so close that they could almost feel each other’s breaths for a moment.Subconsciously, Rosalie slowed her breathing pace and kept her hands close to her.Byron’s gaze fell on her as he observed every inch of her. His grip on her wrist tightened gradually.When Rosalie thought Byron was going to do something, he let go of her wrist.Rosalie was startled.“Heronial Corporation’s branches in other cities have some stock of the medicinal materials that were burned in the fire. I can ask someone to send them to your research institute if you need them.”Byron tried hard to say that.Just now, he almost lost control because of his anger.However, thinking of his purpose of visit and what Andrius had
Chapter 923 Fetch Me Early
Byron observed Rosalie’s face, feeling annoyed.Although Rosalie did not say so, Byron knew from her face that she still suspected him.Realizing this, Byron was unhappy, and his voice turned cold.“I won’t force it since you don’t want to accept my offer, Mis Jacobs.”Then, he walked out of the study.Rosalie’s eyes flashed with doubts upon looking at the back of the man walking away.After chatting with Byron for some time, Rosalie still did not understand why Byron had come to her place.She would not believe that he was only here to supply her with medicinal materials.However, Byron did not mention anything else.Rosalie pondered the matter for some time in her study but could not figure it out.In the end, she walked out of the study.The little ones had finished dinner and were playing in the living room.“Auntie!”Estie dashed toward Rosalie and hugged Rosalie’s legs when she saw Rosalie walking out of the study.Startled, Rosalie was surprised that Estelle had no
Chapter 924 Getting Things Ready
After Byron’s car left, Rosalie took Lucian and Nox to the living room.The two little ones looked at their mother anxiously.These days, Mommy seemed to be in a bad mood.It was worse after she came out of the study.They wondered what Daddy said to Mommy again.Nox, who had always been bad at hiding his emotions, asked, “Mommy, what did you and Mr. Byron talk about?”Rosalie’s eyes turned gloomy as she looked at Nox upon hearing the little one’s question.The little ones looked at her wistfully, trying to tell her that she could not deceive them.Meeting their gazes, Rosalie sighed and brushed them off by saying, “We talked about work.”“Mommy, you don’t seem very happy.”They had never seen Mommy like this for work before.It was like she was watching out for something.The little ones looked at each other in a puzzle.‘What did Daddy do that made Mommy so wary?’Rosalie knew she could not brush them off, so she explained, “Mr. Byron wanted to cooperate with me, but I
Chapter 925 Coaxing Auntie
Meanwhile, Estelle sat in the backseat of the car with her cheeks puffed while she was on her way back to Lawrence Manor. She gazed at her daddy’s face through the rearview mirror.“Daddy, did you make Auntie angry again?”Byron’s forehead creased when he heard Estelle’s question.Catching the change in her daddy’s expression, Estelle snorted, knowing her guess was correct.She thought about why her father wanted to take her to see her Auntie.It was because he wanted to quarrel with Auntie.“Estie will never listen to Daddy again!” Estelle said moodily.Byron frowned and explained to Estelle patiently, “It’s because of work.”It was that excuse again.Estelle looked in the rearview mirror unhappily. “You only know how to lie to kids.”Byron’s brows knitted when he heard that.Estelle listed out Byron’s excuses. “You said the same thing last time. You even deceived Estie tonight, using me as an excuse to meet Auntie…”As a result, her daddy annoyed Auntie again when they we
Chapter 926 The Expression Collapsed
Although the little girl still felt aggrieved, her attention was somewhat diverted by the camping trip.Byron frowned and thought out loud, "Auntie Rosalie should’ve prepared food and water… Besides these, what else do we need?"When she heard her daddy's voice, Estie's attention was finally all focused on the camping trip.However, the little girl hardly participated in group activities since she was little. The Lawrence family had no such tradition of taking their children out camping. As for what to prepare for camping, Estie was even more clueless than Byron was.After a long while, the little girl's eyes flashed a little slyly, and she cautiously suggested, "Ask Auntie!"Byron glanced at the rearview mirror and turned a deaf ear. "Let’s go back and rest early."Estie knew that meant Daddy’s refusal, and she was unhappy.They went all the way to theLawrence family’s manor.Byron got out of the car, turned around to open the rear door, and reached out to carry the little gir
Chapter 927 Into His Arms Affectionately
"Daddy!"Estie called out for him anxiously when the bedroom door was about to be closed.Byron cooperated and stopped. “Is there anything else, darling?"The little girl looked at him aggrievedly. She thought that if she were a little angry, Daddy would coax her and agree to her request. She never expected Daddy to ignore her! The little girl was not used to this treatment.Byron deeply raised his eyebrows. "If there’s nothing else, you should rest early."After that, he was about to close the door again.Just then, Estie asked naively, "Will you come with us tomorrow?"Hearing this, Byron deeply frowned and did not answer immediately.Estie lowered her head and played with her fingers. "Tomorrow is the weekend. You should have time to spend with us, right?"‘Even if Daddy and Auntie got into a quarrel, they should be able to reconcile if we go camping together tomorrow, right?’She remembered that after their last vacation together, Auntie stopped avoiding them. This camp
Chapter 928 Leave In Such A Hurry
Early the next morning, Estie got up from the bed and waited reluctantly at Byron's bedroom door.As soon as Byron opened the door, he saw the little girl at the door.Without a doubt, he already knew what her purpose was.Byron did not give the little girl a chance to speak and said directly, "Hurry down and have your breakfast. Auntie Rosalie will be here soon."The little girl shook her head as she wanted to speak, but her Daddy interrupted her instead."I’m going to work now. You listen to Auntie and call me if you need anything."After that, Byron did not give the little girl a chance to speak again. He walked around her and strode downstairs.Downstairs, Mrs. Zora had prepared breakfast.As Byron walked toward the door, Mrs. Zora asked with concern, "Master, breakfast is ready. Will you have some before leaving?"Byron kept walking. “It’s alright. Miss Jacobs will pick Estie up later. Please remember to open the door."Mrs. Zora frowned and wanted him to have breakfast
