Afraid of Worsening The Injury
Byron’s face sank upon hearing Lucian’s words. ” Where is she? Take US there!”
The boy ran to the direction he came from immediately.
Byron carried Estie and followed behind him with big strides.
Rosalie was still worried about Lucian who ran away by himself. After waiting for a while, she said softly
to Nox, “Help me up. Let’s go look for your brother.”
The little boy shook his head and refused without hesitation. “Mommy, you’re hurt and shouldn’t move
around. Brother will find someone soon!”
Rosalie frowned, but patiently tried to convince him. ” I’m worried about your brother. Although I know
you boys won’t let yourselves get into trouble, I’ll still be scared.”
Mommy’s words somewhat shook the younger brother’s resolve.
‘I don’t want to make Mommy’s injury worse, and I don’t want Mommy to worry about US either…’
Just as he was hesitating whether or not to listen to Mommy and help her up, Lucian’s breathless voice
came from a distance.
“Mommy! Mommy! I’ve brought someone here!”
Lucian’s voice made Rosalie breathe a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the little one did not get lost, and he really got someone to come over to help.
“Sorry for intruding. I’m a little injured, and my kids are too anxious. It may be a little abrupt for you…”
Rosalie politely apologized before she could even see who came.
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Estie’s crying voice. “Auntie…”
Rosalie was momentarily stunned. The wildest and most ridiculous prediction slipped through her mind.
In the next second, Estie’s little figure appeared in her sight.
Rosalie raised her eyes subconsciously and looked behind the little girl.
In the darkness of the night, Byron, who was draped in the moonlight, strode toward her.
Rosalie’s voice stopped abruptly as she looked at the man approaching, she was tongue-tied for a
while.
The man should have felt her evading him just now.
However, in the blink of an eye, she had to rely on him again.
Rosalie’s heart felt complicated.
The two little boys ran to her side first.
Estie’s eyes frantically scanned through Rosalie from head to toe. Finally, her eyes landed on the
woman’s feet. The little girl asked with concern, “Auntie, is your foot injured?”
As she said that, the little girl squatted down and cautiously touched her wound.
When she looked at Rosalie again, her eyes were red and tears were rolling down her face.
Rosalie hurriedly smiled and reassured her. “I’m alright, darling. It’s just a tiny cut on the foot by a
conch. I’ll go back and bandage it. I’ll be fine after two days. Don’t you worry, Estie.”
The little girl bit her lower lip with a face full of distress as she looked back at her daddy. “Daddy,
Auntie’s foot…”
Byron had already walked over to them and noticed Rosalie’s injured foot, but he never spoke.
Hearing the little girl call him, he withdrew his gaze from Rosalie’s foot and looked at the woman sitting
on the ground solemnly.
Rosalie also subconsciously looked at the man beside her.
As they looked at each other, Rosalie’s eyes trembled slightly. She withdrew her gaze with a guilty
conscience and smiled nonchalantly. “The injury isn’t serious. I’m so sorry. The children got too nervous
and went back to trouble you. In fact, I can stand up myself.”
After saying that, Rosalie turned to look at the two little guys beside her, and her voice became more
serious. “Lucian, Nox, come help me up.”
The two little boys sensed Mommy’s attitude toward Daddy. They were conflicted, but they were even
more worried that Mommy’s injury would worsen.
Hearing Rosalie’s words, the boys glanced at each other hesitantly but did not come forward for a long
time.
