When Byron heard the little one’s cries, he raised his head and looked over.Rosalie Jacobs tried to soothe Estie by patting her gently on the back soothingly, but her sobbing became louder. Her tiny figure broke free from the blanket and crawled into Rosalie's arms, her two little hands tightly clutching the woman’s clothing.Estella continued crying. Then with tears blurring her sight, she opened her eyes and stared at Rosalie's face. When Estie was sure that Rosalie Jacobs was still there, her sobbing gradually eased. Seeing the little girl's already flushed face becomes redder from crying, Rosalie Jacobs felt a pang of heartache, as if she saw her twins through Estie’s tearful face."Estie, I’m here. Don't cry anymore, your pretty eyes will swell, and it will hurt." Rosalie Jacobs reassured her softly and gently wiped the tears from the little girl’s face.Estella cried too hard and couldn't stop her chest from heaving, her tears continued to flow. She held on to Rosalie’s blou
For a long while, it was complete silence in the living room.Byron Lawrence took a glance at the sofa and saw the young woman was holding little Estie in her arms. She leaned on the back of the sofa, asleep.The young woman was cradling Estie in her arms, hence her upper body posture was awkward. She slumped unsteadily, drifting in and out of sleep. However, every time she was half asleep and half awake, she would subconsciously hug the little child tightly. Byron’s heart was touched slightly looking at them.Mrs. Zora came to check on Little Lady again. As soon as she approached the sofa, Young Master gestured for her to keep silent by putting his finger to his lips.Seeing this, Mrs. Zora slowed down and cautiously leaned over and glanced at the two of them. She couldn't help but smile at their sleeping faces.Sure enough, the mother-daughter bond between Young Madam and Little Lady can never be severed.Although Estelle hasn't seen Rosalie for several years, the Little Lady
Rosalie Jacobs was indeed exhausted. She usually sleeps lightly, but today she slept so soundly that she was carried into the guest room upstairs without realizing it.Byron Lawrence walked to the edge of the bed, leaned over, and lowered the young woman on the bed. He placed her head gently and then slowly got up.Mrs. Zora followed them all the way. Watching the Young Master take care of Rosalie, the smile in her eyes grew brighter. She stepped forward and put Little Estie next to Rosalie. She covered the two with a quilt, then quietly got up and stepped aside.Noticing that her Young Master's gaze was still on Young Madam's face, Mrs. Zora said with concern, "Young master, you should also go and rest. I’ll be here. Don't you have to work tomorrow?" The Young Master frowned in response, shaking his head, "It’s alright, I'm not tired. Estie is still unwell and I'm worried. You get some rest."Mrs. Zora's eyes twinkled knowingly.The Young Master said he was worried about the li
Rosalie Jacobs paused and looked back in confusion.Byron Lawrence frowned deeply, "It's four o'clock in the morning, you’ve barely slept. I wouldn’t dare let you drive back like this. Besides, if you leave now, I can't possibly explain to Estie. You promised her that you won’t leave, if she wakes up tomorrow and can't find you, she will throw a fit. She might even run directly to your house. Estie has not fully recovered, what if she gets sick again?"Rosalie Jacobs frowned at his request. The dream just now had made her uneasy and she didn't want to stay any longer around this man.However, she did promise the little girl that she would not leave...Seeing her dismayed look, his face darkened, and his tone became cold, "Don't worry, the only time that Estie can trouble you is now. In the future, if it's okay, I won't let her disturb your life again."After that, he released his grip around her wrist.Rosalie felt that his words sounded a little thorny and strange, which made he
Rosalie Jacobs braided Estelle’s hair and went out with her.As soon as she turned around, she saw the man standing at the door.Byron Lawrence's face darkened and retracted all the warmth in his eyes. His tone was polite yet distant, "Breakfast is ready, let's go down to eat."After speaking, he turned and walked in front.Rosalie Jacobs was stunned for a moment.Just now, she caught an expression on the man's face that was slightly different from before. It was only a brief moment, and she didn't know if it was her illusion.When she came back to her senses, Rosalie quickly led Estie downstairs for breakfast.Little Estie naturally sat down beside her Daddy at the breakfast table.Rosalie was about to go across from the two of them, but the little girl grabbed her sleeve and stopped."Young Madam, please sit next to Little Lady." Mrs. Zora saw the little girl's intention and pulled out the chair beside Estie with a smile.Estie nodded in agreement, looking at Rosalie Jacobs
That afternoon, Wendy Fuller and her mother invited Melody Bloome to meet at the cafe.When Melody arrived, the two were already waiting by the window."Excuse me for the wait." Melody sat down opposite the two.Wendy Fuller smiled reassuringly, "Don’t worry, we just arrived, please have a seat. I ordered some desserts, but I don't know if it suits your taste. Please help yourself."After speaking, she waved to the waiter for service.Several delicate desserts were placed in front of them.Aunt Melody smiled reassuringly, "It's Wendy who cares about me and knows that I like sweets. Byron has no such heart." The three of them chatted briefly for a while. Then Magdalene Fuller began casually bringing up news about Rosalie Jacobs as they speak."By the way, when Wendy went to see Old Master Quirke two days ago, she met the woman who divorced Byron six years ago. When did she return to Coast City, do you know?"Melody’s smile gradually disappeared upon hearing this, "Rosalie Jaco
After returning from the cafe, Melody Bloome became increasingly worried. When Benedict Lawrence got off work, she called her husband to go to the manor together.Byron Lawrence went to pick up Estie after work. As soon as the two entered the front door, they saw both of his folks sitting on the sofa with solemn expressions. Obviously, they had something to say."Dad, Mom, why didn't you tell me you were coming over? Is there something wrong?" Byron asked in a puzzled way.Melody Bloome nodded solemnly, “We need to talk."Byron understood from his mother's serious face. He frowned slightly, turned to Mrs. Zora, and asked the housekeeper to take Little Estie upstairs.Mrs. Zora obliged. Estie greeted her grandparents politely and followed Mrs. Zora upstairs.Byron sat down on the single sofa beside his parents, "What made you come here so late?""Is Rosalie Jacobs back?" Melody Bloome went straight to the point.Hearing this, Byron’s eyes darkened, and admitted frankly, "Yes, we
Byron Lawrence has been silent.It wasn't until the two of them finished talking that he said calmly, "You think too much. I have no plans to let Rosalie Jacobs come back."At least, not now.While his parents were talking, Byron had been thinking about his contact with Rosalie Jacobs during this period. He concluded that their involvement during this period was mostly because of Estelle.Thinking of this, Byron felt a little ironic for no reason.Judging from Rosalie Jacobs's attitude when they first met, if it weren't for the presence of Estie, the woman would have avoided him.Whatever concerns that his parents have now is even less likely to happen.Melody Bloome's expression softened a little after hearing her son’s reply, "Alright then. What about Wendy Fuller? When are you going to make a decision? If you marry her soon, Estie will have someone to take care of her.”Byron refused with a frown, "Compared to Rosalie, I'm even more worried about entrusting Estie to Wendy. E
