Chapter 209 Stop Overthinking
”Mommy, aren‘t you happy?‘ On the way back home, the two boys stared at her caringly.
She was taken aback.
She thought that she had concealed her emotions well in front of the kids, but they still managed to seethrough her. “What is it?” She took a glance at the two boys behind and asked as though there wassomething going on.
Lucian frowned with confusion on his face.
“You didn‘t talk to Estie just now. Did Mr. Byron annoy you again?”
Hearing the kids mentioning Byron, Rosalie felt complicated. She had no idea how close she hadgotten to Byron during this period of time that the boys had such a misunderstanding.novelbin
Nox agreed. “Estie was about to cry earlier.” Hearing that, Rosalie could not help but frown. She felt abrief heartache. Although she did not see it with her own eyes, she could imagine how pitiful the littlegirl looked.
She would want to say a proper goodbye to the little girl if she could. However, she really had to cut allties with Byron after hearing what Wendy said earlier today. She would not interfere with therelationship between the kids, but she could definitely control herself.
As such, Rosalie answered the boys with something unrelated, “Remember to come out earlier afterschool. I‘ll be very busy these days, so Nanny Lisa will be the one coming to pick you boys up.”
The boys looked at each other suspiciously as they did not hear the answer they were expecting. Evenso, they still nodded obediently.
Just as Rosalie brought the kids back home, the doorbell rang again.
Rosalie was taken aback for a moment before turning around to open the door.
Mary stood at the door with an ugly expression. Just as she was about to say something, she
saw the two boys and swallowed her words back.
“What‘s wrong?” Rosalie moved aside and let her in.
Mary took a deep breath and suppressed her anger.
“Later!” . Rosalie did not continue asking further and told her to stay for dinner. After the meal, the twoboys went back upstairs. Mary finally said angrily, “I saw the news
yesterday. What‘s Byron Lawrence trying to do!?” Rosalie did not expect her to come for this and didnot know how to answer her. “Since he‘s decided to marry Wendy Fuller, he should stay away fromyou!” Mary slammed the table as she spoke, “I thought he had finally come back to his senses when hecame to look for you! But look at what happened!”
She was fully aware of Byron and Wendy‘s marriage agreement all this while. Hence, she was notbothered about their engagement announcement. She was only one wall away from Rosalie, so shehad witnessed how frequently Byron visited her. Moreover, she previously even tried to defend Byronwhen news of his engagement to Wendy was released. She said that it might not be his intention.
The news yesterday triggered her drastically.
‘Since he‘s so nice to that woman, why is he pestering my best friend?!
‘What a jerk!‘
Rosalie was already distracted enough. After hearing these words, she felt even more bitter.” He has…always wanted to marry Wendy Fuller. Stop overthinking.”
Seeing how her best friend looked, Mary finally realized something. The person in front of her shouldbe the one most affected after the news was released. Her ranting about it so much would probablymake her feel worse than ever.
Thinking of this, Mary suppressed the displeasure in her heart, got up, and grabbed her best friend‘swrist. “Let‘s grab a drink! We shall not return without first getting drunk! Tell those men to go to hell!”
