My Ex-Wife and Kids Came In Like A Wrecking Ball
Chapter 234 Donât Involve Yourself Seeing him nod, Rosalieâs eyes were filled with confusion.
âItâs almost time for breakfast. If you donât mind, letâs go together.â Byron looked at them calmly.
Hearing this, Rosalieâs and Leonâs expressions changed. They could not understand what he meant.
After a while, Rosalie came back to her senses and forced a reluctant smile. âPresident Lawrence must be busy with work. I need quite some time to clean up, so Iâll delay you. Iâll eat by myself in a moment.â
Byron replied, âIt doesnât matter. I happen to have no work arrangements today and can wait.â
Rosalie felt like a headache was coming on again. She smiled and said, âIâm afraid you might not be used to the things I eat.â Byron still did not care. âMiss Jacobs, you can rest assured. Iâm not picky when it comes to food.â
Rosalie, ââ¦â Rosalie did not believe that he could not understand her obvious rejection, not when he had the business world in the palm of his hand! He was clearly doing this on purpose! Yet she could not figure out just what the man was thinking!
The more she thought about it, the more her head hurt. Rosalie decided to steel herself and pull Leon in as a shield. âI have something to discuss with Senior Leon over our meals in a while. Iâm afraid itâll be inconvenient for you to be present.â with that, she cast a look of help to Leon.
Leon replied with a gentle smile before turning to Byron to say, âRosalie is right. We do indeed have something to discuss. President Lawrence, it may not be the best idea to have you join us.â
Seeing both of them singing the same tune, Byron was unhappy deep down, but his expression was still light. âIs that so? Then Iâll keep away when you two are having your discussion.â
Rosalie did not expect this man to be so cheeky. She was thinking of another excuse when he heard the man bring up what had happened yesterday leisurely. âMiss Jacobs, I doubt youâve forgotten about having invited me to have coffee last night yet I was the one who paid for it in the end. Naturally, that cup of coffee is now invalid. Plus I sent you back yesterday. Is it too much for me to exchange those with breakfast?â Byron looked at the woman in front of him with a deep gaze. Hearing this, Rosalie finally compromised. âWait a minute. Iâll change my clothes.â She just hoped that Byron would call it even as he said after this breakfast.
Rosalie closed the door and went in. The two people at the door wore different expressions.
Leon still had a warm smile on his face.
There was no expression on Byronâs face, but he was looking at the man from his periphery.
Thinking about his and Rosalieâs close relationship, he felt displeasure deep down.
After Rosalie was done, the three of them went down together for breakfast.
Rosalie and Leon unanimously stayed silent because of Byronâs presence.
The atmosphere was stifling.
Byron asked about their next arrangement as if nothing was going on. âDo you two happen to have plans after breakfast?â
Rosalieâs utensils stopped in the air for a moment as she looked up at the man opposite her. â Why do you care about our plans so much, President Lawrence? Donât you have your own schedule?â
Hearing this, Byron answered noncommittally, âItâs not often I meet up with friends. Canât we go shopping together?â
Alter he said that, he glanced at Leon beside him lightly before saying to Rosalie pointedly,â Or could it be that youâre frustrated with me for disturbing both your time together?â
There was a faint shift in Rosalieâs expression. âDonât involve yourself with our matters!â
Byronâs lower lip tugged vaguely, but he did not answer. Rosalie withdrew her gaze, her emotions complicated. She did not understand what he meant by that.
