Chapter 288 I’ve Waited So Many Years For You
When Melody knew that Rosalie was the one who found her granddaughter, she stopped sayinganything. Plus, the little one in her arms was crying so badly that she could only focus on her level bestto comfort her.
After a long while, Estie had exhausted all the strength to cry and slowly stopped sobbing.
“That’s good, Estie, sweetie.” Melody patted the little girl on the back and changed the conversation.“Aunt Wendy likes you very much and didn’t mean to make you upset. You forgive her, alright?”
When Grandma spoke of Wendy, Little Estie frowned. She turned around and stretched out her handtoward her daddy.
Byron reached out and took his little girl into his arms. He answered for her, “No way. Even if Estieforgives her, I won’t!”
After speaking, Byron gave Wendy a cold look. “This matter has been going on for too long. Since thishappened, let me make this clear. I will never marry you. From today onward, it’s over between youand me. Don’t appear in front of Estie again!”
Everyone’s expression in the room changed.
Melody was stunned for a few seconds before she realized it and grabbed her son’s arm.” Byron, doyou know what you’re talking about? Your wedding announcement has already been made public, yetyou’re now saying something like this. This will bring great shame to both families. How do you expectus to face the world?”
Byron’s face had no expression. “It’s not my problem. I’ve been expressing my objection from the start.When you announced such news without my consent, it was you who did things your way.” novelbin
Melody’s expression turned ugly when Byron refused to budge.
She knew her son’s objections, but she always thought that she could control him.
However, she forgot that her son was no longer a child. He was now the head of the Lawrence family.
All these years, the only reason why he followed her every whim was just out of filial piety.
“But…” Melody was silent for a few seconds, then she thought of another reason. “Initially, you agreedto this marriage in order to repay Sir Fuller’s kindness. Now, you want to break the engagement. Howare you going to explain to Sir Fuller?”
Byron frowned, “The Fuller family has received enough from Lawrence Corporation all these years torepay that kindness. In addition, the corporation will continue to do business as usual to help theFullers in the future as long as they don’t do foolish things.”
Wendy’s eyes widened in disbelief.
“Byron’s decisions were already carefully planned!
‘When did he decide on this? After he rejected me the last time, or after that wh*re Rosalie cameback?’
Just when she was still in shock, Byron’s unfeeling gaze fell on her face. “If there’s nothing else, MissFuller, please leave my house as soon as possible.”
Hearing this, Wendy’s eyes shrank. She panicked and begged for forgiveness. “Byron, I was wrong. Iknow I really messed up this time. I promise to comply with Estie completely in the future. Whathappened yesterday will never happen again, I swear. Please don’t be mad at me, okay?”
Byron remained unmoved.
Wendy was in despair and reached out to grab his sleeve, but he dodged her.
“I’ve waited so many years for you, Byron…” Wendy’s hands were frozen in the air, and she tearfullypleaded, “Whatever I did wrong, I’ll change for the better. Don’t do this, okay?”
The man’s expression was unchanging. Wendy looked at Melody for support. Melody just shook herhead and said solemnly, “You should go home now.”
Although her son did not show much anger, she knew that this was exactly his maximum threshold ofwrath.
In fact, what he said just now was something he would only say after careful consideration. It wasuseless for her to say anything now. It would be better to wait until he calmed down.
