Chapter 458
My Ex-Wife and Kids Came In Like A Wrecking Ball
Chapter 458 You Sent Someone To Surveil Me Seeing Rosalie leave just like that, Byronâs eyes darkened, but he stood up as if nothing had happened, âold Master Quirke, I suddenly remember that thereâs still some unfinished business at the company. Iâm at ease now that I know youâre recovering well. If thereâs nothing else, Iâll be taking my leave.â
Old Master Quirke frowned slightly. Did Byron not just tell him that he was free for these two days?
Why did he suddenly have work to do?
However, when he thought about how Byron was carrying the burden of the entire Lawrence family on his shoulders, it was somewhat understandable.
âI was going to ask you to stay for a meal, but since you have matters to attend to, I wonât keep you any longer. The company is important, so go quickly.â old Master Quirke then urged earnestly, saying, âRemember to rest and donât overwork yourself. â
Byron promised to do so, then got up and left.
Seeing his friendâs attitude, Andrius quickly got up and followed after him. âIâll send you off!â
The two walked to the entrance of the villa, one behind the other. Once they were there, they caught sight of Rosalie who was about to reach the manor gates.
Andrius was about to say something, but he was cut off by Byronâs words.
âI know what youâre going to say. Iâll keep it in mind.â
After saying that, Byron strode off without waiting for Andriusâ reply.
Seeing the distance between the two growing smaller and smaller, Andrius could only sigh helplessly.
At the gates of the manor, Rosalie was waiting for the servant to open the gates for her. Suddenly, she heard footsteps behind her and turned around subconsciously.
Her eyes met Byronâs cold gaze.
Rosalie was frozen for a moment as they stared at each other. After coming back to her senses, she took a step to the side and gave him a slight nod as a greeting.
There was still some distance between the two of them, but it almost felt like she was being enveloped by the tense aura radiating from the man.
Rosalie silently clenched her fist to calm herself down.
As long as she could walk out of this gate, she could get into her car and leave without having to face this man again.
What she did not account for was that Byron did not plan to let her go that easily.
Seeing the gates slowly opening, Rosalieâs eyes lit up. she quickly moved her feet to leave.
The moment she took a step, however, a large hand grabbed her by the wrist. âAre you trying to avoid me that badly, Miss Jacobs?â
Byronâs voice, laced with a hint of anger, sounded in her ears.
Rosalieâs face stiffened slightly at those words. She stopped and turned back to look at him. âIf thereâs something youâd like to discuss, President Lawrence, I can discuss it with you, but please let go of me.â
She forcibly tugged at her arm twice as she said that.
Rosalie really did not want to cause a commotion while at someone elseâs house, let alone cause a misunderstanding.
However, the grip on her wrist did not loosen and instead tightened.
âDo you really intend to let Young Master Leon be the father of Lucian and Nox?â Byronâs tone was frighteningly hostile.
Dumbstruck by the absolutely absurd question, Rosalie just stared at that incomprehensible man standing before her. âAs Iâve said before, Leon and I are just friends, so please refrain from making such unfounded speculations!â
Byron sneered coldly. âUnfounded? With the way you wear Young Master Leonâs clothes so naturally, what more proof would I need? When Old Master Quirke mentioned Young Master Leon just now, you didnât deny anything, did you?â
Rosalie was shocked.
When did she ever wear Leonâs clothes?
The only instance that could barely be considered her wearing Leonâs clothes would be the last time in s City when Leon had noticed that she was cold and draped a coat over her.
When it happened, it had already been a while since Byron left them. How did he know this?
Thinking of this, a conjecture crossed Rosalieâs mind. She angrily glared at the man in front of her. âYou sent someone to surveil me? II The last time she was in s City, she had asked him this question, but Byron had denied such claims.
Hence, she thought it was just her imagination.
However, in this current situation, how could he have known so much if he had not sent someone to surveil her?
