Byron had also suggested visiting her at work these days, but she rejected it because she was working.
This time, when he heard Estelle saying she was not at home often these days, he realized that the woman had
been dedicating her time to work.
"Are you free tomorrow at noon? Let's have lunch together."
Byron decided to take Rosalie on a short break from work.
Rosalie was startled upon hearing the time. Then, she apologized. 'Tm afraid I can't have lunch with you tomorrow."
"What's the matter? Is it because you can't get away from work?"

The words from the old lady from the nursing home flashed across Byron's mind.

Surprised, Rosalie asked, "What’s wrong?"
She had been getting up early these days, and the children usually got up only when she was about to leave the
house to say goodbye.
She had no idea why they woke up so early this morning.
The kids smiled sweetly. "Mommy, are you busy today as well?"
Rosalie caressed the little ones' heads apologetically today. ‘Tm very sorry about it. I have too little time to

Estelle looked aggrieved. "Why aren't you wearing the necklace?"
Startled, Rosalie froze but soon realized what the little girl meant. She was talking about the necklace Byron gave
her as a gift.
"I can't wear jewelry at work," she patiently explained to Estelle.
However, Estelle was still stubborn. "Is it because you don't like the necklace?"
Rosalie shook her head subconsciously.
'You must dislike Daddy, then!" Estelle pouted her lips in grief and lowered her head pitifully. "Mommy, please don’t
dislike Daddy..."
Rosalie looked at the little girl and felt confused.
She had explained everything, but the little one did not seem to buy it.
