Rosalie smiled at the little one, then raised her eyes to meet Byron’s gaze.The man was wearing a dark, well-cut, haute couture suit. His hair was fixed with hairspray, revealing his sharp and handsome features.As their eyes met, the man's body seemed to be restrained. "Morning."Rosalie pursed her lips and nodded to the man. "Morning, erm, you are..." Before she finished speaking, Estie answered excitedly, "Daddy and I are here to pick up Auntie and the little brothers!"After saying that, the little girl looked at the room curiously. "Where are the brothers? Are they still sleeping?"Rosalie lowered her eyes and touched the little girl's head. She then looked up at the man in front of her again and hesitantly turned sideways to let them enter. "The brothers are already up. They’re getting ready upstairs. They’ll come down soon. Estie, why don’t you go in and wait?"She nodded obediently and took her Daddy's hand to enter the villa.When passing by Rosalie, he glanced at he
The voice of the little girl made Rosalie come back to her senses.Rosalie felt inexplicably apologetic in her heart looking at the man who was still standing by. She hesitated for a moment but still invited softly. "President Lawrence, you probably haven’t had anything yet. Let's eat together."Byron furrowed his brows and helped himself to a seat directly beside the little girl.He had already planned today's itinerary, but he did not expect the woman to enter the kitchen as soon as she entered the door. He had no chance to speak up.The atmosphere during breakfast was the same as before. Rosalie and the kids were having a good time while Byron sat on the side quietly, looking out of place. After breakfast, it was still early before the concert started. Hence, Rosalie got the kids to play at home all morning.At noon, Byron proposed to take them out to eat. Rosalie thought of the miscommunication in the morning and agreed.As they were headed out, Rosalie wanted to drive the
"Andrea, do you know them?"Eugene could not help but ask.Hearing these words, Andrea slowly came back to her senses, frowned, and glanced at him. The disdain in her eyes was fleeting but evident. "I have bad blood with that woman."Eugene asked in confusion, "What did she do to you?"Andrea curled her lips with a flash of anger. "She stole my friend’s man. I can't stand her."Eugene was stunned by his goddess' anger. He immediately stood up in a stance, wanting to help vent her anger. "I'm going to settle the score with her!"Andrea just rolled her eyes, then quickly adjusted her expression. She lightly kicked him under the table. "Sit down. Don't be so impulsive. That’d be so embarrassing!"She kicked very lightly. Eugene only thought that the goddess was flirting with him, so he sat back obediently and asked her, "Then what are you going to do? I'll listen to you!"Andrea smiled. "We'll follow them after a while. Let's see what they're going to do after."Eugene agreed wit
Rosalie had not bought clothes for the little boys either since she returned to Somerland. It was Mary who bought them and sent them over.Byron had no experience in buying clothes for children.Looking at the various shops in the children's area, their eyes were dazzled by the clash of colors. They two just resorted to letting the kids choose the clothes they liked for themselves."Auntie!" Estie suddenly tugged Rosalie's sleeve.Rosalie followed the little girl's line of sight in confusion, only to see a shop with simple decor. The shop had adult and children's clothes hanging together.It was apparent that the store sold parent-child matching sets.The parent-child clothes here were mostly gowns and formal wear because the store was in a high-end shopping mall.This was the first time the little one saw adults’ and children’s clothes that looked almost the same. She wanted to wear the same gown as Rosalie, and her face was full of expectations.Rosalie was a little hesitant.
Rosalie frowned slightly and wanted to explain to the little girl that these matching sets were meant for parents and children."Wow, this sweet girl has such good taste. These gowns are perfect for you and your mommy!" The shop assistant said before her.Hearing this, Rosalie could not help but glance at the little one subconsciously, then turned to look at the shop assistant, wanting to deny their relationship.Before she had time to speak, the little girl unexpectedly hugged her arm and called out sweetly, "Mommy!"When Rosalie heard what Estie said, she was stunned for a moment and did not know how to react.However, the little girl was full of anticipation.‘Anyway, Daddy said that he would let Auntie Rosalie be my mommy, so there’s nothing wrong with me calling her Mommy now!’Rosalie was stunned for a long time before turning to look at Byron, wondering how he would react.‘Byron has deep love and affection for this child. Come to think of it, this little one's biologi
Lucian and Nox watched silently from behind with a faint look of envy in their eyes.They also wanted to wear matching sets with Daddy and Mommy, but they were not as straightforward as their little sister. They knew that Byron was their daddy and that made them always a little cautious in front of him.Rosalie looked at Estie's happy face, and the worries in her heart also eased a lot. She touched the little girl's head and said, "The gown suits you well, darling. Let's take it off and I’ll get them to wrap it up, okay?”The little girl shook her head without hesitation, holding onto her hand.She was finally wearing the same clothes as Auntie. She did not want to take it off so quickly.Rosalie knew what the child was thinking and pondered for a moment. Since they were already wearing the matching set anyway, it made no difference to wear the clothes for longer. Hence, she gave in to Estie’s request and asked the shop assistant to pack up their original clothes instead.As she
The two followed Rosalie and Byron all the way. As the group walked into the concert hall, Andrea was so angry that she took several photos in succession and sent them all to Wendy.On the other hand, Wendy was still furious when she saw the first two photos she received. Now, she suddenly received more. In the photos, Byron and Rosalie were taking the kids into one of the city’s famous halls.Wendy only felt a buzzing sound in her head like it was about to explode.She knew that there would be a concert in the auditorium today. She even went to great lengths with her connections to get two concert tickets and invited Byron to watch it with her.However, Byron simply rejected her without even giving her a reason.Wendy had to console herself that it was because he was busy with work and gave the two tickets to a friend.She did not expect that the reason why Byron rejected her was that he wanted to go with that b*tch Rosalie! Wendy was going crazy looking at the photos on the s
When Rosalie and Byron brought the kids in, the concert had not officially started.Theirs was a VIP seat. It was a delicate round table with two chairs on both sides of the table.Rosalie called for a waiter, added three chairs for the kids, and let them sit between her and Byron so that they could take care of their needs at any time.Based on the seating arrangement, Estie raised her eyes and glanced at her father again. With a thought, she turned around and carefully tugged on Rosalie's arm.Rosalie looked at the little girl, puzzled."Auntie, I can't see clearly..." Estie, with her pitiful eyes, looked at Rosalie and said that she could not see the stage clearly.Hearing this, Rosalie frowned and looked at their respective positions. In order to make it easier to take care of the kids, the position she arranged for them was indeed a bit biased.When she understood what the little one said, Rosalie did not hesitate. She got up and changed positions with the girl.The little
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
