Rosalie’s face flushed red when Byron hugged her intimately before the kids.“Yeah! We’re still kids. Mommy, you can’t be mad at us.”Since their daddy spoke out for them, they were less afraid and quipped.They were also intelligent and obedient, so they covered their eyes and turned around when their daddy hugged their mommy.“It’s getting late.”Rosalie struggled to break free from Byron’s hug. “The kids have to go to school tomorrow. Let’s go to bed early.”Byron let go of Rosalie and said, “I’ll tuck them into bed because I have something to talk to them about.”The smile on the little ones’ faces disappeared.They knew their daddy would not forgive them so easily.Rosalie knew he would talk to the kids about that matter, so she nodded. She watched Byron take the triplet upstairs.Byron first bathed the kids and tucked them into bed.“Daddy, are you still angry?”Nox buried half of his face under the quilt and asked tentatively.Then, he tried to ease Byron’s anger by
“Have they gone to bed?”Rosalie’s mind was a mess, and she was worried about the little ones. Hence, she had been waiting in the living room for Byron.When she saw Byron walking down the stairs, she asked with concern.Byron headed to the sofa upon hearing her voice and sat beside her.Feeling sorry to see Rosalie looking so exhausted, he hugged her.“I’m fine. I’m only a little tired,” Rosalie said as she forced a smile.Unlike before the kids, Rosalie was less nervous when alone with Byron. She even leaned on Byron’s chest.Byron kissed her on the temple and held her hand as he stood up. “When I drove back from the company, I saw the nice weather. So, I thought of taking you on a ride.”Rosalie frowned upon hearing this and said, “I…”She wanted to say she was not in the mood.However, Byron did not give her any chance to reject and dragged her to the door.Afraid they might wake the kids, they tiptoed and closed the door softly.They were at home, yet they looked like
Rosalie listened to Byron’s words and looked at the deserted surroundings. She was flustered and could not believe what she had heard.“Byron, this is inappropriate. We can do it at home if you really want to do it.”Her hands clasped tightly on her coat, and she sounded reluctant.Looking at Rosalie’s nervous expression almost made Byron laugh. He asked on purpose, “What’s inappropriate? Do you even know what I’m about to do with you?”Rosalie looked around and said, “Didn’t you say you wanted to…?”Before she could finish her words, she felt the car stopping gradually.Byron turned his head and looked at Rosalie before getting out of the car. Rosalie had no choice but to swallow her words and look at their surroundings. When she saw the scene outside, her panic turned into bewilderment.“Sir, everything is prepared,” Luther stood beside the car and reported to Byron.Byron nodded and walked to Rosalie’s side. He opened the door and looked at the woman in her seat meanin
“Have a seat.”Byron took her to the sofa.After Rosalie sat, Byron turned around and headed to the pilot’s seat.Rosalie lifted her head and happened to see Byron moving the controller. The helicopter gradually lifted into the air.“You know how to fly a helicopter?” Rosalie was surprised.Byron chuckled and said, “To be honest, there are not many things I’m not good at.”Rosalie was startled upon hearing that, but she had to admit that what Byron said was true.Being born in a family like the Lawrence family meant Byron was already at the top of the pyramid.He had the time and money to pursue his hobbies.However, Rosalie lamented about something. In their previous marriage, Byron had never shown her his skills.Byron must have guessed what was on Rosalie’s mind and glanced at her. “I learned to fly a plane only two years ago. As for my other skills, I’ll show them to you slowly.”Rosalie smiled in response.The helicopter flew higher.“Look outside,” Byron said.Rosal
Byron’s grip on her tightened.“Nothing. The scenery evoked some memories, and I didn’t expect you to agree to my marriage proposal.”That was why he thought if Rosalie refused to accept his proposal, it would be nice if they could die by each other’s side here.Recalling the proposal made Rosalie think about the wedding ring she had.Byron had told her that if she agreed to marry him, she could wear the ring.However…Feeling shy, she looked at the sea waves and retorted, “Is the ceremony so important? If it is, don’t you think we should sleep in separate rooms now?”Byron was at a loss for words and began to wonder if he had phrased his words wrongly.However, he felt he did nothing wrong after pondering.Instead, he was displeased and kissed her neck. His hands crawled on her body as he stubbornly said, “It’s different. Only we know how we sleep at home, but I want everyone to know you’re my wife by giving you a wedding.”Realizing Byron’s change in tone, Rosalie’s face fl
It was another pleasurable night for the couple.The following day, Rosalie felt her body was going to fall apart. She even reconsidered sleeping in the guest room instead.“Does it hurt?”Byron came in from outside and looked at her with concern.Rosalie was embarrassed as she uttered each word through her teeth, “Thanks to you, yes.”Byron chuckled and sat beside her. He massaged Rosalie’s back but did not plan to apologize for what he had done.“Have some more rest. Estie prepared breakfast today for you, and she might be here anytime now.”Rosalie was startled upon hearing this. She feared her daughter might see her like this and wanted to get off the bed to get dressed while enduring her pain.“Mommy!”Rosalie froze and happened to sprain her back. The pain made her frown.“Mommy, what’s wrong?”Estelle was anxious when she saw Rosalie’s expression. Subconsciously, she wanted to hug her mommy.Just as she reached out her arms, her daddy stopped her. “Mommy sprained her
After breakfast, Byron drove the three little ones to the kindergarten while Rosalie headed to the research institute.“Dr. Jacobs, has Lancer Corporation not answered us yet?”Linda waited before her office early in the morning.Rosalie’s steps froze upon hearing the name Lancer Corporation. She suppressed the emotion in her and said, “Maybe it will take some time for them to reply. Why? Is there any problem with the manufacturing factory?”Linda looked helpless. “The last batch of medicinal materials finished yesterday. Now the production line is forced to stop. The person in charge even contacted me to discuss the temporary compensation for stopping the production.”She had not slept all night because of this matter.Rosalie frowned and realized the matter was getting serious. She could not drag it on anymore.“I know. How much do they want? You agree to their conditions first and I’ll settle this matter as soon as possible.”Then, she strode back to her office.Xander was
“According to what I know, Young Master Xander’s motive to produce this drug is to give cancer patients hope to live. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with this.”Someone muttered and looked at Rosalie strangely.The conference room was quiet, and Rosalie could hear every word he muttered.“If anyone has any doubts about this matter, please state them. I’ll try my best to explain and resolve the matter.”That man turned around and met Rosalie’s gaze. He pondered before speaking, “Miss Jacobs, you were the only person who dealt with Young Master Xander about the project. We don’t know what exactly happened.”Rosalie drooped her eyelids and said calmly, “I don’t mind explaining if you all are eager to know about it.”Then, she lifted her head and looked at her staff. She was nervous deep down.The price of the drug was what she had decided herself. She had never asked her colleagues’ opinions.Noticing Xander’s difference, Rosalie did not want to see doctors taking patients’
The immense pain caused Violet to become delusional. Besides the heart-piercing howls, she suddenly burst out laughing maniacally.She bit her lip until her mouth were filled with blood. Her face was grim and distorted and her eyes bulged out of the sockets.She stared at Rosalie viciously and sneered in a sinister way. "Rosalie Jacobs, so what if I poisoned your mother to death? Who made her a b*tch, unwilling to divorce obediently, and kept taking money from Gordon. She isn’t that great! Hahaha...""......" Rosalie's blood boiled. The seventh silver needle appeared in her hand.At this time, Byron quickly walked to her side and grabbed her.‘If my wife is overtaken by her emotions and takes a step forward, she would be a murderer for sure.’He hugged Rosalie, not letting her go any further.Sophie saw her mother in such pain. She stared at Rosalie with red eyes and kept yelling. "Rosalie, how dare you treat my mother like this? I will kill you! I will definitely kill you..."
When Violet heard Rosalie's concrete words, her face was horrified, and her eyes darted quickly."Rosalie, what nonsense are you talking about? When have I ever done something like this? Don't try to slander me!" She nervously argued.As everyone knows, she had fallen into Rosalie’s verbal trap."You haven't done it? Didn't you ask Ethan to help you poison Mama? It's mercury. Just a little bit could affect my mother slowly. Just two or three times a month is enough. The long-term accumulation of toxins was enough to shorten my mother's life to a few years. Ethan was so young then and you are willing to use him. Aren’t you afraid that he would accidentally ingest it?"Rosalie's angry face and hateful eyes made Violet look away in fear. Her body trembled uncontrollably."Violet, you still insist on arguing until now. I really couldn't do anything about you a few days ago. However, I can come to you now, which means that I have enough evidence to prove that you used your good son Eth
The chainsaw roared, and the iron chain was severed in less than thirty seconds, followed by two iron doors which collapsed to the ground.Byron and Rosalie walked in through the iron gate.The frightened Sophie rushed downstairs first. When she saw the couple, she panicked and shouted. "What are you trying to do? Breaking into a private house is illegal. I'll call the police immediately!"With that, she took out her mobile phone and feigned intimidation.Rage shot to the top of Rosalie’s head. She rushed over, snatched Sophie's phone, and smashed it to pieces on the ground.How refreshing to be the bad guy.For the past twenty years or so, Rosalie had been a pro at being a good person. She always suffered losses from being kind.The best way to deal with shameless people was to be even more shameless than them. In this way, there was nothing the opponent could do.Sophie was stunned for a few seconds, but she could not stop Rosalie at all."Where is Violet? Get the hell out n
Mama’s last will intermittently recorded the last three years of her life.When Rosalie finished reading her mother’s last word, the dam had broken, and she burst into loud sobs.The heart-piercing grief lingered in her chest. She kept murmuring under her breath. "Mama, my Mama...hurts so much in her life. She was in so much pain!"She tearfully looked at her husband. At this moment, Rosalie was like a frightened little animal, her entire body trembling helplessly.Byron read the will with her. The typically calm and introverted Byron felt his eyes burning and tears streamed down his face.Immediately, a monstrous anger appeared on his face. He exuded a deadly aura all over. He gritted his teeth and said ruthlessly, "Honey, we must avenge Mama. Violet is not human. She is just a beast clad in human skin!"Rosalie cried bitterly while hugging Byron, inconsolable for a long time.Finally, Detective Carter read the contents of the will and remained silent for a long time.The con
[My dear daughter, my beloved Rosalie, I wonder how many years later will you see this written will? Ten years, or twenty years? Or you may not see it at all."[Darling, Mama loves you very much, I love you too much. So, it is you who gave Mama the courage to accept my fate at this moment. I know very well that my life is slipping away bit by bit, but I don’t feel afraid at all!][However, Mama don’t know why such bad luck happened to you. You were only three years old and just learned to run and jump around, and you’ve just learnt to pronounce the word Mama properly. Despite that, death is around the corner, knocking on my door. Mama feels reluctant, this is such a waste! Mama prays to God, I’m willing to accept anything as long as you live, even if it means falling into hell.][You were suffering from a congenital genetic disorder. I took you to many hospitals and finally found a solution. However, the treatment cost is as high as one million dollars. Mama can't afford this at all
Byron, who has always been calm in dealing with things, felt anxious this time.The car continued to accelerate. There was no time to lose. He needed to verify personally whether the heirloom left by his mother-in-law were really hidden in the frame of the wedding photo.Rosalie also looked solemn, and her heart was beating fast.Violet cared so much about Mama’s heirloom. She was still looking for it even when she could not find it after more than ten years, which shows that this heirloom was of great importance.Perhaps, there was enough evidence in it to prove that Violet harmed her mother.Rosalie truly wanted to know; how did Violet manage to poison her slowly? At that time, she had no contact with Mama at all!In about ten minutes, the car arrived at the Jacobs old house.Early in the morning, Detective Carter still led his bodyguards to search around, knocking on every wall, trying to find some hidden storage space.Upon seeing the eager faces of the young couple, Detect
That voice seemed to unveil Rosalie's dust-sealed memory like an old chest.An image from that year flashed across her mind in an instant.Under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, Mama and Aunt Lou were eating cakes, chatting and laughing over tea. As the sun set, Rosalie came from the kindergarten on the corner of the street, lugging her schoolbag as she rushed home, less than a hundred meters away.Then, she exclaimed. "Mama, I'm home!"At that time, Mama was so healthy. Her eyes were always joyful, and she was as beautiful as an angel.Aunt Lou was also very young at the time, she had just married and had no children. She liked to ask her Mama for advice on family life issues.How wonderful it would be if life could stay that way forever!Unfortunately, everything was ruined by Gordon.Rosalie’s thoughts were raging. It took a long time before Rosalie came back to her senses and told Aunt Lou that she had returned to Coast City, and everything was fine.Aunt Lou continued to
On the second day of the wedding, Mary woke up and habitually thought that it was her home. She was about to go out in her pajamas.Fortunately, Andrius carried her back to bed just as she pushed the door open.Mary woke up from her confusion and realized her new identity, the daughter-in-law of the Quirke family.The husband held her, but suddenly refused to let go. His hands began to wander naughtily.Mary was astonished. They were keeping each other up until late last night. It was only a few hours apart."Is there any custom ceremony that has not been completed? Does your family need us to greet the elders on the first day after marriage?" She suddenly became flustered, and she was short of breath.She wanted to quickly change the subject, so her man would not continue his passionate torment.It would be really embarrassing if they made any noise this early in the morning.Andrius shook his head, and moved his lips closer, wanting to attack.Mary resolutely covered his lip
In the Jacobs’ old family home, Detective Carter kept receiving calls from the bodyguards, and knew the movements of Violet's family like the palm of his hand."Sure enough, it was a bait and switch. On the surface, two cars set off; one came to us and the other was headed to the airport. In actual fact, they escaped from the basement in a taxi. However, they were indeed unable to escape."Detective Carter summarized his updates and reported to Byron and Rosalie.The detective was shocked. The bodyguards that Byron arranged for him had excellent professional skills and strong execution ability. These men were obviously carefully cultivated.Byron nodded calmly.He sighed secretly in his heart. Sophie reacted exactly the same way as Xander Lancer back then, she chose to escape by water.Indeed, travel transportation such as airplanes and high-speed rails have rigid, fixed schedules and are relatively easy to be discovered.Rosalie's mind was not present at all. As long as the hus
