Female Novel
Chapter 1772 Uneasiness
At this time, Byron did not notice anything amiss.
His mind was completely on the little woman.
"Have some water, you’ve been talking for so long," Byron handed Rosalie a glass, and she took it witha smile.
This involuntarily made Chloe feel lonely again.
Byron did not even bother with the decorum now. He did not even ask her if she was thirsty.
She could only call out to the server. "Waiter, I'm not used to your tea. Give me a glass of water with aslice of lemon."
The glass of water with lemon arrived along with the food.
Chloe saw it again. Byron kept adding food to Rosalie's plate. However, Byron did not express anythingto her as a guest.
This made her feel awkward.
‘If I had known earlier, I would not have come.novelbin
‘Why didn't I turn this invitation down? I’ve lost my posture to let Rosalie treat me to this meal.’
The atmosphere turned quiet several times, so Chloe initiated the conversation. "Byron, Miss Jacobs,why didn't you bring the kids out for dinner today?"
She knew very well that today was not a weekend. The kids must be at school.
"The kids are at school, so we didn't bring them today. Tomorrow is the weekend, so we’ll take them outfor fun."
Rosalie responded while putting food on Byron's plate. She remembered that Byron liked to eat thistype of fish.
Chloe could no longer stand the atmosphere, so she continued. "I wanted to see your three kids. Iheard they are all very good-looking, aren't they?"
Byron suddenly became interested in the mention of his kids. He responded, "Yeah, they are. After all,it's my kids with Rosalie. How bad could the genetics be?"
The more Chloe heard it, the more flustered she was.
However, she carried on with the conversation. "Really? Then, I must take a look next time. What giftsshould I prepare for them?"
"Miss Lincoln, there's no need for that. The kids don't need anything now. Plus, you must be busy afterreturning to Somerland, don't bother making these preparations. I’ll bring them out next time and letyou get to know them!" Rosalie responded.
Rosalie’s instincts kicked in as they went through this meal. She noticed something was indeed wrongwith the way Chloe looked at Byron.
It was a kind of concealed adoration.
The meal they had after was difficult for Chloe.
She hastily ate a few mouthfuls and declared she was full.
"Thank you, Miss Jacobs, for the hospitality of this meal. I've been really busy since returning home. Ihave an appointment with some classmates later. Shall we call it a day? What do you think?"
She wanted to leave quickly.
Rosalie simply nodded in agreement.
Chloe got up and was about to walk out of the private room.
She thought that Byron would see her off. After all, the man had always paid attention to etiquette.
Unexpectedly, Byron did not even lift a toe and continued to serve Rosalie food. "I remember you likethis dish. Try it. This restaurant tastes more authentic."
Chloe could only leave with uneasiness in her heart.
Rosalie's eyes narrowed slightly watching her go.
After the series of incidents that Wendy caused and the fact that Xander almost killed her this time,Rosalie's state of mind somewhat changed.
She used to dodge the man’s advances in fear. At that time, she did not know the man’s intentionstoward her sons. She was unsure what the Lawrence family would do to Lucian and Nox.
For this reason, she restrained herself and constantly persuaded herself to give up on Byron. In actualfact, she knew very well that she had a deep love for Byron.
Now, the kids had gotten their parents back. Everything was back on track.
She would never allow anyone to destroy this happiness again.
