Early in the morning outside the prison, it was drizzling.Rosalie and Byron were quietly waiting in a Rolls-Royce until the big iron gates began to open slowly.Yves was still in prison uniform when a middle-aged prison guard said, “Behave yourself after getting out and stop making mistakes!”He nodded and a relaxed smile appeared on his lips. “I will, Mr. Zigler. Wait till I get myself a new job and I’ll come see you once I’ve earned some money. Thanks for always looking out for me.”“What’s there to thank me for? Just don’t come back ever again. It’s bad luck! Just go…” The middle-aged prison guard smiled.Yves had always thought that no one would come to pick him up and did not pay attention to the Rolls-Royce.It was until Byron appeared while helping Rosalie out of the car that astonishment appeared on his face.“You’re finally out, Yves Graham!” Byron smiled.He had thought it would be a few more months before Yves would be released, but Yves’ sentence was shortened due to good
“Lucian, Nox, are you alright? It must be painful.” Byron helped up the two boys. He looked anxious and worried as he watched the boys’ knees bleed.He looked like he was ready to commit murder.Estie came over as well to check on her two older brothers. When she saw both of them bleeding, her eyes immediately turned red. She was almost crying.“Byron, don’t let those children get away!” Rosalie said as she ran. She felt like her lungs were about to explode.Those children clearly did that on purpose. She saw it very clearly. There were four of them.A sneak attack with four against two. What a terrible thing to do!Byron had been keeping his eye on those four children. They were trying to escape and disappear into the crowd.When his wife arrived, Byron immediately took action. He gave chase immediately toward where the four children had escaped.“Mommy, come take a look at Lucian and Nox!” Estie shouted at her helplessly.Rosalie’s chest tightened. She went toward Lucian and Nox, and
Daniel was taken aback. “The Lawrence family?”He had just been transferred over from the North and was still not entirely clear on the business connections here.Moreover, he saw no connection between the famous Byron Lawrence of Lawrence Corporation and the person in front of him who looked too young to be Byron.From Daniel’s point of view, every businessman here would always try to get along with him.However, the other parents immediately recognized the three children.“Aren’t those the three genius children we’ve all heard about that just started school here?”“It should be them. A pair of twins and an adorable younger sister. It is them! We’re done for. I heard their parents are not to be trifled with.”“The… The Lawrence family? The reigning family of Coast City, the Lawrence family?”Those parents immediately look shocked with fright. There was fear in their eyes as they looked at Byron and Rosalie.One of them quickly ran over and tugged at Daniel while blinking repeatedly as
Byron turned and went to his three children. He crouched and checked Lucian and Nox’s wounds.“How do you feel? Does it hurt? Tell me what you really feel!” The look in Byron’s eyes had turned softer as he rubbed both Lucian and Nox’s heads lovingly. He also hugged Estie.Lucian and Nox gave each other a look and they nodded. “It does hurt a little, Daddy!”“Good!” A smile appeared on Byron’s lips as he asked the second question. “Do you feel angry?”This time, Nox answered, “Yes, I am! I feel really angry!”Lucian nodded as well. This was what they truly felt.Even Estie pouted and said, “I’m really angry too, Daddy. It’s horrible that they bullied my big brothers!”Byron accepted all his children’s answers. He was not in a hurry to comfort them, but instead, his tone turned grave. “So, tell me, what should be done to make you feel less angry?”The three children immediately looked at each other. They were unable to give an immediate answer.When she saw them that way, Rosalie instant
“It hurts, it hurts…”Zack wailed. There was pain in Daniel’s expression but he did not dare help his son up.When the other children saw how badly Zack fell, it scared them and they had fear in their eyes when they looked at Lucian and Nox.Lucian and Nox stared at their hands when they returned to their parent’s side. They shook their head slightly with stunned look on their faces.When Byron saw them acting this way, he immediately crouched and rubbed their heads.There was a calm look in his eyes as he said, “Remember this, Lucian and Nox, there are many kinds of people in this world. Your kindness must be used on the right people and should not be given to just anybody. When facing unreasonable people, there is no need for you to be reasonable. There is no need for too much mercy!”Rosalie felt a little moved when she heard this.These two boys had grown up with her and were both warm and kind. However, they lacked a certain steeliness in their personalities.If they continued gro
Their whole family had just arrived at the manor when Luther called to report, “President Lawrence, evidence of Daniel Lundgren’s corruption has been gathered and delivered to the relevant departments. It won’t be long before he would be fired!”When dealing with someone like that, there was no point in letting him off because Byron would never want to see his face again.Byron got off the car after parking the car and carried both sons into the house.Estie was in Rosalie’s arms and when Melody saw this, she mumbled, “You’re already such big children and yet you’re still in your parent’s arms.”Benedict, however, immediately noticed Lucian and Nox’s knees were wounded. He immediately went to them and checked their wounds. “What happened? Did you fall?”“They’re fine, Dad. I’ve helped them clean their wounds. It will heal in two days, minimum!” Rosalie replied and put Estie down.The little girl immediately went to check the wounds on her two older brothers and noticed something as she
Andrius pondered, yet he did not know how to respond.He shook his head and looked at Byron and Rosalie in a puzzle. “Byron, Rosalie, do I look different now? Why don’t I see it? At most, I only feel like I've changed my dressing style.”That answer made Rosalie and Byron feel that Andrius might not have changed. He was still as straightforward and as much of a blockhead as before.Of course, Rosalie noticed her best friend’s passionate secret glances at Andrius.Her eyes were sparkling as though she was looking at her favorite food.Andrius returned to his car and took the herbs from it.Byron nodded and smiled in appreciation. “Thank you.”Rosalie saw that those medicinal materials seemed expensive. Some were even so precious that they could not be bought with money.“These are all suitable for pregnant women. Looks like my bestie must have suggested these?” Rosalie looked at Mary.Although Andrius might be familiar with the origins and price of the medicinal materials, he m
“Rosie, I've checked with the asylum. Kelly has indeed gone insane! She's not in a clear state of mind anymore and is always babbling nonsense. Moreover, the doctor there mentioned she sneaked into the drug storeroom and took plenty of drugs. In the end, she was sent to the emergency room and escaped near death.”Mary told Rosalie about what happened after the pathogen attack.The mastermind, Kelly, was now loony. Many of the hospital’s medical personnel escaped the life-endangering pathogen attack and won the people’s hearts for being decisive and quick at resolving the matter. Even the higher executives of the Ministry of Health came personally to reward them.The hospital was also nominated as the best and most authorized hospital by the government. They might even be listed in the official list of insurance-covered hospitals.Andrius added, “Kelly’s charge has entered the stage of public prosecution. No matter if Kelly is sane or has lost her mind, she'll be sentenced to at lea
