Estelle did not come out of her room even after Byron and Wendy had finished their meal.Wendy had finally gotten Byron’s agreement. Of course, she did not want Estelle to mess up her plan.After dinner, she volunteered and said, “I’ll go upstairs and see how Estie is doing.”Byron nodded, agreeing.Wendy headed upstairs nervously.Mrs. Zora was accompanying Estelle in her room. She watched Estelle eat her food slowly, mouthful by mouthful.Seeing Wendy walking in, Mrs. Zora greeted respectfully, “Miss Fuller.”Wendy nodded slightly in response. “Why don’t you go out first? I have something to say to Estie.”Mrs. Zora hesitated for a moment, but there was no reason to refuse. She could only leave.Only Wendy and Estelle were left in the room.The little girl puffed out her cheeks and put down her spoon angrily. Estelle turned around, and wrapped herself in the quilt. She held a doll in her arms and played with it intently. She had no intention of talking to Wendy.Wendy’s ex

Wendy was displeased to hear her mother mention Rosalie. “Why did you mention her?”Byron had already decided to meet her parents, which meant their engagement was near.She did not feel there was room for Byron to regret.Magdelene still felt uneasy.“At the very least, Rosalie is Estie’s birth mother. What if Byron regrets marrying you? If he goes back against his word, there’s nothing we can do about him.”Wendy’s heart sank.She had come this far with great difficulty and would not allow Byron to go back against his words again.Magdelene saw her daughter’s worries and spoke gently, “If you don’t want to let Byron regret it again, it’s necessary to find out what happened between them. If it’s because of a misunderstanding, we must make good use of it and prevent them from clearing up the misunderstanding!”Wendy’s gaze turned cold. “Got it!”Magdelene had a complicated feeling upon looking at her daughter in such a state. “Don’t blame me for stating the problem. We’ve wait

Recalling she had to drive Estelle to kindergarten the next day, Wendy set an alarm for 6:00 am.Wendy felt frustration surging in her when the alarm went off the following day.Last night, Wendy barely slept because she had been thinking about Rosalie and Xander. She only slept after midnight and had only three to four hours of sleep.Wendy turned off the alarm clock and closed her eyes to go back to sleep.On second thought, she had to put on an act in front of Byron…After lying in bed for a while, Wendy got up despite her anger.She took a simple bath and headed downstairs.Downstairs, Magdalene was watering the flowers leisurely.She was surprised to see her daughter waking up early. “Why did you get up so early?”Wendy was still in a bad mood after waking up early and looked annoyed. "To send Estie to kindergarten."Magdalene nodded. “You should do it. It might be tough now, but it’s for the better future.”Wendy naturally knew it. Otherwise, she would not have gotten

Estelle looked at her daddy, who was at the door, and at Wendy, who was sitting on the sofa.After a while, she got off her chair sullenly and ran after Byron on her short legs.Wendy was relieved and followed quickly.“Daddy,” Estelle tugged onto Byron’s shirt and tried to coax her daddy.Byron looked at the little one and stroked her hair. “I’ve been very busy recently, so please be a good girl.”The little one pouted her lips in disbelief.Her daddy was not busy. He was in a bad mood because he and Auntie were not on good terms.She could see that, yet her daddy was lying to her.Adults were strange. Her daddy still refused to make up with Auntie after so long.Byron did not know what was happening in the little one’s mind. After speaking, he withdrew his gaze from her and turned to Wendy behind the little one.Wendy kept her attention on him and met his eyes with a smile almost as soon as he looked over.“What’s the matter?”Byron’s forehead creased, and he asked in his

Rosalie subconsciously frowned, and her voice turned cold.“Stop saying that. Young Master Xander is our business partner. He supplied us with medicine in time to ensure our project’s progress.”Yves’s words reminded her of the little ones.If even Yves misunderstood her relationship with Xander, she could not blame the two little ones for their misunderstanding. Moreover, Rosalie had never thought about what was going on between her and Xander, which made others misunderstand.Yves smiled. “Dr. Jacobs, you don’t have to deny it. After all, your medical skills are outstanding, and it’s understandable that Young Master Xander admires you.”As if he was afraid Rosalie did not know about it, he smiled and mentioned, “I’m afraid you don’t know this, but our research institute’s staff often gossip about your relationship with Young Master Xander.”Rosalie looked displeased as she asked, “Gossip about what?”Yves shrugged his shoulders. “Young Master Xander is always by your side wh
