Don‘t You Know How To Talk Properly?
Byron had no experience coaxing children. Whenever Estie was angry with him in the past, it was Mrs.
Zora whom he had asked to coax her.
Seeing his daughter crying in front of Rosalie now, a trace of panic flashed through Byron‘s heart. In
the end, with a calm expression, he dully ordered, “Don‘t cry.”
He had thought that this sentence was void of emotion.
In Estie‘s ear, however, it sounded fierce.
The moment he said that, Estie sobbed harder. Her tears practically rolled down in a stream. Her head
was lowered as she choked on her sobs. She was practically out of breath.
Byron‘s brows were locked, and he did not know how to react for a moment.
Seeing the little girl crying like this yet how cold Byron‘s response was as a father, Rosalie could not
just stand and watch anymore.
“Is this how you treat your child? She‘s crying like this yet you spoke to her with that tone? Don’t you
know how to talk to her properly?” When Byron was suddenly lectured by her, he could not help but be
stunned.
Rosalie strode over to the Estie. She crouched down and held the little girl in her arms. She spoke with
a gentle voice, “Good girl, Estie. Don‘t cry. If you like, you can come look for me any time you want to
play with the brothers. I‘ll give you my contact information. Just call me when you come. Don‘t cry. If
you keep crying like this, your eyes are going to hurt and you won‘t be pretty at all.”
Beside them, Lucian and Nox grabbed tissues and were waiting beside them.
Rosalie grabbed the tissues to help the little girl wipe her tears as she coaxed her.
Estie, who was being coaxed by Rosalie to stop crying, sobbed and burrowed herself into her arms.
Rosalie hugged the little girl dearly and patted her gently on the back. Lucian and Nox saw the little girl
crying like this and were also a little angry. Their big eyes fixed themselves upon the man not far away,
and they were full of anger.
“Why won‘t you let her be friends with us?” Lucian could not help asking.
“We didn‘t even do anything to her. Mommy has taken good care of her the two times she went
missing. My brother and I also took her to go play. She also had a good time with us and sticks to us a
lot. We‘re not bad people. Why can‘t we be friends?” Byron did not expect this little one to also dare
lecture him. His expression sank. He did not know how to respond.
He did not want Estie to be friends with them because of another concern completely, but the little one
had defended themselves so loudly…
“She has no friends in kindergarten. Only my brother and I don‘t dislike her and allow her to stay by our
sides. She was bullied in kindergarten before this and my brother and I helped her. Do you want her to
be alone in kindergarten instead of being friends with us?” Lucian was beside himself with anger as he
questioned.
Having two of them question him consecutively, Byron‘s mood was complicated. Seeing that he had not
said anything after a long time, the boys thought they had hit the nail on the head and were even more
depressed.
Lucian had held back for a long time, but he still said what he was thinking in his heart, “We protected
her and played with her, but now, you‘re obstructing us like this. Who do you take us for?”
Hearing his brother‘s words, Nox nodded firmly. They glared at the man angrily, their hearts filled with
sadness.
The man before their eyes was their daddy. However, this person had abandoned their mommy before
they were even born. Now, he did not like them as well and was not even allowing them to be friends
with his daughter…
