Chapter 124 How Could One Be So Cruel To Her?
Rosalie asked the two little guys to take care of the little girl while she went to prepare dinner for them.
She wrote down all the dietary precautions that Byron told her earlier and cooked based on Estie‘sneeds.
When the meal was ready, Rosalie asked Lucian and Nox to bring Estie down.
Soon, three little ones appeared at the entrance of the stairs. The two little boys held the little girl‘shands, one on each side. The boys accommodated her pace and slowly walked downstairs. Theylooked like two little princes and a little princess from a fairy tale.
Rosalie saw the three kids holding hands, and there was a touch of warmth in her eyes. Then, shethought about Estie‘s current situation and felt distressed once more. When they got to the dining table,Lucian and Nox were kind and generous to let their little sister sit next to Mommy while they sat besideEstie.
Rosalie patted the heads of the two boys with relief, sat down beside Estie, and carefully fed her.
Maybe the cooking suited Estie‘s taste, the little girl ate cooperatively.
After dinner, Rosalie sent Lucian and Nox into their room. She took Estie back to her bedroom andbathed Estie before bedtime.
The little girl allowed Rosalie to undress her without any reaction.
A huge bruise on the side of Estie‘s buttocks caught Rosalie‘s attention as soon as she took off the littlegirl‘s bottoms.
The bruise was in shades of purple and blue all over Estie tender fair skin. It was shocking, to say theleast.
Rosalie‘s eyes trembled slightly, and her chest contracted violently. She gently cupped the little girl‘sface as her own heart shattered. “This must hurt badly, right?”novelbin
Estie‘s eyes were completely blank. Rosalie was silent with a heavy heart, but she said, “Let‘s take ashower first. I‘ll be gentle. Then, we‘ll call Daddy, okay?” After that, she gave Estie a quick and gentleshower before changing her into comfy pajamas. After getting dressed, Rosalie let Estie lie on her fronton the bed. Meanwhile, she went out and called Byron in private. He picked up quickly. “What‘s thematter? Did Estie cause you trouble?” Rosalie asked solemnly, “Did Estie have a meltdown becauseLucian and Nox were expelled?” Hearing this, Byron frowned slightly. “What do you mean?” Rosalieknew that he might be unaware. Her heart was distressed for Estie but irritated with
Byron for his lack of attentiveness toward the child. Her voice was displeased. “Come and see foryourself!”
After that, she hung up the phone. Staring at his empty screen, Byron‘s eyes darkened slightly. Heimmediately turned around and headed to Rosalie‘s house.
“Mr. Lawrence, don‘t tell me you don‘t know where this came from!” Rosalie took off Estie‘s pajamapants and showed him the bruise on the little girl‘s buttocks.
He saw the blue and purple patches all over the little girl‘s bottom, and his face sank immediately. Astorm brewed in his eyes.
Obviously, he did just learn about the bruise.
Rosalie frowned. “What the hell is going on? Didn‘t you know that your daughter was hurt so badly?”
Byron shook his head deeply. “I would never lay a finger on her, and I‘ve been busy at work these days.Mrs. Zora takes care of her majority of the day, but… I don‘t think Mrs. Zora would do this.”
Rosalie agreed that Mrs. Zora would never do such a thing, but she still insisted that Byron have Mrs.Zora come over. “In this case, Mrs. Zora should know the situation better than you, so ask her to comenow.”
Byron called the manor and asked Luther to fetch Mrs. Zora over.
“Do you know anything about this bruise?” Seeing the injury on Estie‘s body, Mrs. Zora‘s face was fullof distress. “What‘s going on? She was fine yesterday! How could one be so cruel to Little Lady?”Byron‘s eyes turned cold. “That means she got this bruise today.”
