Chapter 1424 T ry Harder
By the time Rosalie returned home, it was already nine.
When Rosalie got off the car, she felt remorseful and anxious upon thinking the little ones were alone at home. 1
She walked quickly into the villa.
As soon as she entered, she heard noises of the kids having fun and chasing each other.
Rosalie's footsteps paused, and she looked inside in surprise.
At first, she thought it was Mary, but she saw Byron sitting on the sofa.
As if noticing the sound at the door, the man turned around.
Their eyes met, and Rosalie was surprised. "Why are you here?"
Byron said they would meet some other day.
When she came back, the little ones stopped playing and approached her.

Rosalie tried to appease the kids by touching their heads, yet her gaze was on Byron.
The man sat on the sofa with his shirt's buttons slightly open and his long legs folded, looking relaxed.
Seeing him like this, Rosalie could not help herself from imagining him playing with the kids and felt an indescribable
feeling rising in her.
Byron got up from the sofa and approached her. He glanced at her neck.
A glint of displeasure flashed across his eyes upon seeing her bare neck." Didn't you say you and Xander were
meeting at noon?"
Facing the man’s question, Rosalie still felt guilty even though she knew she had done nothing wrong. "Young Master
Xander had something on this noon and changed the time.”
A visible glimpse of displeasure flashed across his face again. "Does the
Lancer family make a habit out of not being punctual and changing appointment times as they wish? If they don’t
even respect their business partners, would any company be willing to cooperate with them?"
Rosalie could not retort and smiled instead. Then, she diverted the topic." Have you guys had your dinner?"
Nox answered in his cute voice, "We've eaten, but Mr. Byron hasn't seemed to have dinner."
Linda made dinner before she left.
The little ones were eating their meal when Byron came, seemingly to have dinner with them.
Rosalie looked at Byron to get his confirmation about the matter.
Byron frowned, and it meant he did not have dinner yet.
Rosalie’s forehead puckered, and she sounded helpless. "Why didn't you call me a little earlier?"
She stroked the little ones' heads, told them to stand aside, and headed to the kitchen. After washing her hands,
she prepared something forthem to eat.
Byron knew that she had a long dinner with Xander and had no mood to eat.
He wanted to refuse to eat. However, when he saw Rosalie cooking in the kitchen for him, he swallowed the words

Rosalie made a simple friend rice.
Just now, she was too busy discussing medical matters with Xander that she did not eat much.
Since she was making dinner for Byron, she decided to make some for herself too.
Smelling the fragrance, the little ones also approached them and wanted some. Thus, Rosalie had to give them
each a little of the rice.
It was nearly ten o'clock when the five ate the hot friend rice at the dining table together, i
Suddenly, Rosalie remembered she had not asked what she wanted to ask Byron. "Why did you make a sudden
visit? Is there anything wrong?"
Byron looked at her and said, "I came to visit Estie."
Rosalie nodded.
Then, Byron's voice sounded again. "Besides, I said I'll be responsible for what happened. Since you haven't
decided, I must try harder to win your heart."
