From downstairs, Byron also noticed the little ones who were coming down.The three little ones were about to speak when they saw Byron suddenly look up at Estie. He said expressionlessly, "Estie, come down. It's time for us to go home."Hearing this, all three kids were startled.Estie widened her eyes blankly. "Daddy..."‘I had a deal with Auntie that I would stay to eat her homemade meal. What does Daddy mean?‘Even if Daddy really got into an argument with Auntie, he shouldn’t take me away.‘After all, Daddy himself said that he wants my help to pursue Auntie.‘If I go home, how will Auntie be relieved?’Byron was unmoved. "Auntie has other things to do, and we don't know if there’ll be other guests at night. Let’s not disturb Auntie."With that, Byron went to the stairs and stretched out his hand toward Estie.The little girl pouted, shrank behind the two brothers, and refused. "No, Estie wants to have dinner with Auntie!"Lucian and Nox also quickly shielded Estie behi
Lucian carefully handed the flower to him. "Mommy's bunch of flowers have a lot of lilies, so I secretly took one out."Hearing what the little boy said, Byron’s eyebrows twitched as he finally understood what the boy meant.The bunch of flowers Rosalie brought back was clearly given by others to thank her.It was he who misunderstood her again.No wonder the woman was so angry.Realizing this, Byron’s face suddenly softened. He glanced at the woman who was still busy in the kitchen and looked back to take the lily from Lucian. "Forgive me. I was too anxious. We’ll stay for dinner."After speaking, Byron put Estie down from his arms.As soon as the little girl landed, she glared at her father angrily and went straight to the kitchen to find Rosalie.In the living room, Byron held the lily that Lucian had pulled from Rosalie's bouquet. With a frown, he stared at the little guys.Seeing Daddy's annoyance, the two little guys glanced at each other secretly, their eyes full of dis
From where they stood, they could see the living room from the kitchen door.When the little girl looked up, she saw Daddy frowning with a rare look of annoyance.She knew that he regretted being angry with Auntie and her just now.The little girl puffed out her cheeks and thought angrily, ‘Hmph! He deserves it! Who told him to get mad at us without any clear reason?!’After she thought and complained in her heart, the little girl still remembered that she wanted Auntie to be her mommy.Therefore, helping Daddy was also helping herself.Thinking so, the little girl put down her prejudice and chose to help Daddy."Auntie, let's play games together..." The little girl tugged on Rosalie's clothes carefully and said in her naive voice.This child had good acting skills. When she spoke, her face was so aggrieved as if she had not recovered from the sadness when Byron wanted to take her away just now.Seeing the pitiful appearance of the little one, Rosalie could not help feeling so
At beginning of the game, the two little boys stood on both sides. Rosalie and Byron were in the middle."1,2,3, wooden man!"After waiting for them to walk for a while, Estie suddenly turned around.The four froze in place.The two little guys were still a little unsteady, and their bodies were crooked. They shook a few times before they barely stabilized.Fortunately, Estie only cared about being able to play together. She did not mind the slight bobble and quickly turned around again.When they started to walk again, it was uncertain if the little boys were too anxious that they kept squeezing into the middle.Rosalie looked helplessly at Lucian beside her.Lucian was looking at Estie standing in the middle with all his attention, his little face was full of seriousness.It seems that the purpose of his walking toward the middle was just to be able to touch Estie as soon as possible.Seeing this, Rosalie sighed lightly and silently moved to the middle to make way for the l
Rosalie clearly heard the voices of the little kids and could not help feeling strange in her heart, but it was quickly covered up by a guilty conscience.Just half an hour ago, she just had an unpleasant moment with the man.This was just a child's game, but she could not stand still and fell into the man's arms.To anyone else, her actions may have been deliberate.Only Rosalie knew that she was really careless.However, if she explained it now, it would only become more complicated...Rosalie leaned a little stiffly in the man's arms, and her heart was conflicted.On the other hand, Estie was still immersed in the game and told them, "Don’t move!"The other two little ones responded immediately.On the other side, Estie could not wait for the two adults to answer. She stared at them with her small face."Understood," Byron spoke, his voice close to her ears.Rosalie's eyes flashed with surprise.If they really followed Estie's instruction to not move, then she would cont
The little kids were no longer in the mood to continue. Rosalie had left, so there was no need for them to continue playing.At the side, Byron watched the little kids go to sit on the carpet with upset faces. He bit his lower lip to stop himself from laughing. He looked upstairs again and walked up.The misunderstanding just now made it necessary for him to have a good chat with the woman.The kids thought that this battle plan was a complete failure, but when they turned their heads, they saw that Daddy actually took the initiative to go upstairs.Without a doubt, they knew that he must be looking for Rosalie!Seeing this, the little ones began to have anticipation again.Upstairs, Rosalie locked herself in the bedroom, feeling very complicated.She did not even know what happened to her just now.She was clearly annoyed with Byron being domineering for no reason, but when she was playing games, she was also bewitched by the gentle look in his eyes.Thinking of her mood just
When Byron heard her from the foot of the stairs, his frown was indiscernible. He turned around to look at the woman by the bedroom door in confusion.Rosalie's brows and eyes drooped. Her beautiful eyebrows were slightly furrowed as if she was regretting what she said.Seeing this, he pulled his lower lip in deep thought. "Miss Jacobs, don't force yourself. I won’t change my mind because of dinner."After speaking, the man nodded slightly to Rosalie. He turned around and headed downstairs again to leave.Hearing the movement, Rosalie raised her eyes and looked over. She sighed silently in her heart, then repeated herself. "Let's have dinner together. If you leave, Estie will definitely be sad.”These words were for Byron, and she also said them to herself.Just now, Byron mentioned herself six years ago. When Rosalie saw his back view as he left, she could not help but remember how she felt when she left.Although the pain at that time was caused by this man, Rosalie was soft-h
The kids could not be of much help in the kitchen, but with them, Rosalie's tumultuous mood slowly calmed down.After getting ready for dinner, Rosalie saw Byron sitting on the sofa at a glance.He seemed a little tired, and after a while, the man had already fallen asleep. His head was slightly tilted sideways, and he was leaning on the back of the sofa. Even when he fell asleep, he still maintained his posture.Seeing this scene, Rosalie subconsciously relaxed her movements, then made a gesture to the little kids to be quiet.The little guys followed her line of sight, and when they saw Daddy who was sleeping, a trace of confusion crossed the faces of Lucian and Nox.The daddy they knew before would always be dealing with work during his spare time, but he fell asleep today.Had Daddy been overworking during this period?The two little boys looked at Estie in confusion.When Estie saw the person on the sofa, the smile on her face gradually disappeared, and her eyes were full
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
