Chapter 542

Chapter 542 Brother Is Missing After dinner, the group went straight to the beach and waited for the fireworks show to start.

Moonlight scattered across the sea, making its surface sparkle. It looked very tranquil.

The beach was crowded, but no one spoke loudly.

Faced with such an environment, everyone was unanimously silent. They only spoke in low voices from time to time.

Rosalie was holding Estie’s hand in one hand and Lucian’s and Nox’s in the other. Byron, on the other hand, was behind them.

Seeing so many people at the beach, Rosalie could not help but worry about the children and thought of looking for a less crowded area to hang out at first.

Noticing that the number of people on the beach were increasing, Byron frowned and stopped the four people in front of him. “Estelle, come to me.”

With the way Rosalie was holding onto the children, he was afraid that Nox, who was at the very edge, would be lost in the crowd.

Estie had reluctance written all over her face. She held Rosalie’s hand tightly and was unwilling to let go.

Byron’s expression sank slightly, and he stressed again, “There are too many people. Come here, Daddy will take your hand.”

The little girl shook her head stubbornly.

She wanted to be with Auntie and Lu and No!

Seeing the two of them locked in a stalemate, Rosali’s heart still softened for the little girl. She said softly, ” I’ll take her. You can just watch over US from behind.”

Hearing what Auntie said, the little girl smiled happily, her eyes forming crescents.

Byron’s gaze darkened. He acquiesced after remaining silent for a long time.

Along the way, Byron closely followed behind the four of them. His eyes were on the children, always on the lookout to prevent the children from being squeezed away.

“Miss, sir, would you like to buy a small toy for the children?” A peddler who was selling toys walked up to them.

Rosalie was forced to stop. She politely refused them. “No need, thankyou.”

After saying that, she wanted to bring the children to go around him.

The peddler, however, obstructed them relentlessly.

Rosalie was holding onto the children with both hands. There were so many people, so naturally, it would be impossible for her to free her hand to take out her phone and pay. Hence, she could only refuse with a headache.

The children did not mind this either. They were just looking around curiously.

Just when Rosalie was feeling helpless, the man behind her had at some point walked up beside them.

“There’s no need.” Byron looked at the peddler in front of him expressionlessly, his voice cold.

He was a head taller than the peddler, and with his awe-inspiring aura, the peddler was rendered speechless.

After a moment, the peddler then said with some embarrassment, “I-I’m sorry for disturbing you.”

With that, he quickly turned around and fused into the crowd.

Rosalie heaved a sigh of relief, she was about to lead the children forward when she heard Lucian’s nervous, childlike voice, “Mommy!”

Hearing the boy’s voice, Rosalie’s heart inexplicably constricted.

“Mommy, Nox is gone!” The little boy grabbed her hand anxiously, and his hand was covered in a cold sweat.

He had clearly been holding onto his brother just now, but…

When he thought about it now, he did not even know when Nox disappeared!

Hearing this, Rosalie abruptly stopped. Her heart constricted, but she still had to suppress the panic in her heart. She looked at Lucian and asked, “Don’t worry. Tell me, when did Nox go missing?”

The boy was feeling anxious while also blaming himself. He shook his head, his face pale. “I don’t know…”

Seeing the boy’s appearance, Rosalie could not help her own face from turning pale either.

“It must’ve been when we were talking to that person just now,” Byron’s voice sounded in her ears.
