Chapter 169 You Haven‘t Contacted Me For A While
Seeing each of these individuals‘ expressionless faces as they held the boxes in their arms, Rosaliewas confused. “What is this…”novelbin
Byron answered, “Lego sets. I heard they wanted to play with Lego sets yesterday, so I asked myassistant to buy them overnight. There are some difficult sets among them, so the children should likethem.”
Rosalie could not help feeling stunned. Looking at the expressionless strong men in front of them, shefound that they looked a little out of place with the things in their arms
“Let them bring the things in first.” Byron motioned the bodyguards to take the things in. Rosaliehesitated for a moment and finally made way for them. She watched them put the boxes in their armsdown on the floor one by one.
The children who were in the dining room heard what was happening outside and ran out curiously.Lucian and Nox stood beside the boxes, their eyes shining. Estie, on the other hand, went to her daddyand ran around him once before returning to the two brothers to stare at the boxes with them.
Nox‘s eyes almost turned into stars. He was just short of pestering his mommy to unbox all of them.
Never in his dream did he expect all the Lego sets he had told his mommy about last night to appear infront of him this morning.
Moreover, there were many limited edition sets that he had really wanted but found very expensive. Hehad shamefully brought them up to his mommy. He did not expect them to appear here!
Even Lucian was hardly able to hold himself back. One could tell his joy from the naked eye. “Are theseall for us?” Nox looked at the man at the door brightly.
Byron nodded noncommittally.
Getting his affirmation, Nox cheered in his childlike voice. He smiled and thanked him.” Thank you,Uncle!”
Lucian was still a little reserved, but the corners of his mouth had also risen a little. He followed it with athank you.
Byron nodded deeply.
“As long as you all like the gifts.” Seeing the interaction between the three, Rosalie frowned slightly,anxiety surging in her heart inexplicably. Byron just thought that she did not like him giving gifts to thekids without her authorization,
so he explained as if nothing had happened, “Estelle just so happens to like these things. They canplay together.” The implication was that these things were mainly for his own daughter and the boysinst so happened to be able to benefit from it. Hearing him say that, Rosalie had no choice but toacquiesce to keeping these things.
After everything was delivered, Byron did not stay for too long before hurrying to the company. Rosalietook the children to go clean up briefly before sending them to school. She passed the children over toMiss Leigh Ann and went to the research institute herself. The moment she entered the office, hermobile phone rang.
Seeing the caller ID, Rosalie‘s eyes lit up as she answered the phone with a smile, “Teacher.” On theother end, Quentin‘s voice sounded leisurely. “Are you busy?” Rosalie shook her head. “No, I just cameinto the office. What‘s the matter? You haven‘t contacted me for a long time.”
Ever since she returned to the country, the number of interactions between the two had been scant.
Most of the time, it was Rosalie taking the initiative to report the development of the research instituteto him. Quentin was busy with his research, so his replies were also always concise.
This was also the first time Quentin had called. “I did indeed call you for something.” Quentin was nottoo courteous with her and cut straight to the chase.
“There’s a project that requires your follow–up research and development. I‘ll send you the particularsof the project later. You can have a look.” Hearing that it was about work, Rosalie agreed withouthesitation. The two discussed the project again. Rosalie asked her teacher about the time he would becoming back to the country.
“When will you be returning? I‘ll pick you up.” Quentin looked at his schedule arrangement and replied,“I might be delayed a while more. I‘ll call you when I‘m due to return.” Rosalie agreed.
