I Won‘t Send Them Away
Byron frowned.He did not expect that this little girl would be so angry.
Hearing Mrs. Zora‘s words, Byron nodded and knocked on the door. “Estie, open the door. I want to talk
to you.”
As he finished speaking, there was a muffled sound on the door.
Obviously, the little girl had smashed something onto the door to display her resistance to him.
Byron paused, and when he spoke again, his tone softened. “Estie, open the door and tell me what you
want me to do. Let‘s discuss it properly, okay?”
There was another sound of something hitting the door.
It was also the first time that Mrs. Zora saw Estie behaving like this. She thought of Little Lady‘s
condition again, and for fear that something would happen to her inside, she hurriedly said, “Master, I
think it‘s better to go in directly. Otherwise, I‘m worried about Little Lady…”
Byron hesitated for a moment but nodded in agreement.
Mrs. Zora soon brought over the spare key, and the two opened the door and walked in.
As soon as he entered the room, he was taken aback by the mess around him.
The dolls that Estie had cherished greatly were scattered all over the place. At the door were several
exquisite music boxes, two of which had cracks.
Obviously, the things that she smashed on the door just now were these two music boxes.
Among the mess, Estie was seen hugging her legs. She was curled up in the corner. Her eyes were
empty as her tears flowed uncontrollably. There were two ugly dolls that they had never seen before.
Seeing the two come in, the little girl shrank back unconsciously. She lowered her head and refused to
look at them.
Byron felt his heart shatter at the sight of the little girl. He approached her regretfully and wanted to
hold her in his arms to comfort her.
Sensing him nearing her, Estie raised her head abruptly. The look of objection in her eyes was clear.
She planted her hands on the ground and shrank back in a panic.
Byron paused midway when he saw how she was reacting to his presence, “Estie… don‘t be afraid. It‘s
my fault.”
The little girl did not seem to hear his words. She inched closer and closer to the wall and turned
sideways to avoid his gaze. She hugged her knees and curled up into a ball, burying her head deep in
her knees.
They could not see her expression, but they could only see the little girl‘s body trembling when she
sobbed.
For a moment, Byron was a little dumbfounded.
Mrs. Zora stepped forward in distress.
“Master, let me try.” After saying that, she cautiously approached Estie and stretched out her hand
toward her. This time, Estie did not cower anymore. Mrs. Zora breathed a sigh of relief. She picked her
up gently and patted her on the back soothingly.
“Estie, darling, what‘s wrong? Tell me, okay? Did you get bullied by your classmates at school?” The
little girl in her arms just sobbed and did not respond at all. Mrs. Zora had no choice but to hug and
coax her first.
“Is it because the twins didn‘t go to school?” Byron said in a deep voice. Hearing this, Estie‘s eyes lit up
a little. She turned her head away with a sob.
Seeing Estie‘s reaction, Mrs. Zora quickly hinted at Byron with his eyes and asked him to follow Estie.
Byron sighed, not expecting this little girl to be so dependent on those two classmates of hers. Was it
because the three children were related by blood that they had this kind of involvement with each
other?
“I know you don‘t want them to leave the kindergarten.”
Estie then looked at him with an aggrieved expression on her face. Seeing his daughter like this, Byron
had to compromise. “I promise you I won‘t send them away.” The little girl stared him in the eye with a
look of accusation. Although she did not say a word, Byron understood her and replied warmly, “They
were simply absent from school today. The teacher hadn‘t even told them about the expulsion.“
