Chapter 186 Initial Aloofness
When Rosalie came out of the operating theater, it was already dark.
Seeing the sky outside, Rosalie suddenly remembered that she seemed to have missed the time to pick up the little ones. She only had time to change her clothes and hurried to the kindergarten
As she walked to the gate of the kindergarten, she could only see a man standing by the bench with one hand in his pocket from the distance. Three children surrounded each other, each holding a hamburger in their hands, bowing their heads down, and eating seriously.
Rosalie paused at this sight.
As if he felt her gaze on him, Byron raised his eyes and looked over, then lowered his head and said something to the children.
The three children looked up at the same time and ran to her side with their unfinished hamburgers in hand. Rosalie crouched down apologetically and touched the heads of her sons, “I‘m sorry, Mommy is late.”
Lucian and Nox had long been used to it, and they nodded forgivingly when they heard her apology. Internally, they were concerned, “Mommy, have you been busy until now? Are you tired?”
Rosalie smiled reassuringly, “I‘m not tired at all.” Although she said that, her body was very tired. If she had not been missing her children dearly, she probably would not even have the strength to lift her arms.
When Rosalie gave birth to the two boys, her delivery was not smooth. She experienced heavy bleeding during the delivery, which caused her body to be in a permanently weakened state. After each
extended duration operation, she would feel exhausted physically and mentally and would have to rest for a long time.
“Why‘s Estie still…” Rosalie looked at Estie in confusion. Byron had already come to collect her, so why was she still here? Or was Byron kindly watching Lucian and Nox for her? At this thought, Rosalie‘s mood was a little complicated. Byron quickly caught up to them, and when he heard her question, he replied in a deep voice,” If the two of them won‘t leave, neither will Estie.”
Hearing this, Rosalie was stunned for a moment, and then a wave of self–mockery flashed across her heart.
“I called you just now, but you didn‘t answer,” Byron explained.
Rosalie came back to her senses and got up to meet the man‘s gaze. She smiled reluctantly,” My phone was turned off, and I didn‘t see it until I got out of the operating theater. I‘m sorry that you had to watch Lucian and Nox.” Seeing her slightly pale face, Byron frowned slightly, “That‘s nothing, really. You helped take care of Estie for so long before.”
The two of them did not have much to talk about, and Rosalie was exhausted. After a few polite words, she nodded to him coolly and said, “I‘ll take Lucian and Nox back first.”
The two boys said goodbye to Byron politely.
Estie looked at Rosalie longingly, reluctant to part with her so quickly. Facing the little girl‘s gaze on her, Rosalie felt her heart melting into a puddle. She leaned over and touched Estie‘s head and said, “Estie darling, go back with Daddy. You can play with the boys tomorrow.” Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
The little girl simply nodded obediently, and said in her childlike manner, “Goodbye, Auntie.” Hearing her voice, Rosalie‘s heart softened even more, “I‘ll see you tomorrow.”
After she finished speaking, she got up and led the two boys away. Looking at the departing figures of the mother–son trio, Byron‘s eyes were dark and unclear. This was their first meeting since he brought Estie home.
Rosalie‘s attitude toward him had returned to her initial aloofness.
If it were not for the fact that he helped take care of the two boys, she probably would not have said a word to him. Estie waited for a while, but her Daddy was standing there motionlessly. She shook his arm to grab his attention. Only then did Byron come back to his senses. He picked up the little girl and strode toward the kindergarten gate.
