Being On Your Side
The next morning, as Wendy was having her breakfast, she received a call from the bodyguard.
“Miss, I‘ve checked. President Lawrence brought Miss Estelle to visit a woman with the last name of
Jacobs. They were there for nearly three hours before they went back…”
Before the bodyguard could finish his sentence, he heard the busy dial tone on the other end of the
phone call.
Woman with the last name of Jacobs, Rosalie Jacobs!
Wendy‘s face was extremely contorted as images of Byron spending time with Rosalie began to appear
in her mind. Three hours! What did they do during that time? He even brought Estie along! Wendy was
so furious she shot up to her feet and smashed the phone she was holding onto the floor with an
insane look in her eyes.
Opposite her, Henry was eating his breakfast when he heard the commotion from Wendy’s side. He
turned around to look at her with a frown.
He saw his daughter‘s gnarly face as she stood beside the table. Her phone was smashed on the floor
near her.
“What‘s going on?” Henry placed his cutleries down, his tone was stern.
Wendy‘s eyelashes fluttered as she met her father‘s gaze. She gritted her teeth as she spat out the
words, “Rosalie Jacobs is back! Byron seems to have the intention of getting back together with her.
He‘s been distancing himself from me recently!”
As she spoke, the tone of her voice was laced with a tinge of pitifulness.
Henry‘s face fell.
“Do Master and Mrs. Lawrence know about this?”
According to what he knew, that woman left unannounced all those years ago. She left behind nothing
but a signed divorce agreement.
The Lawrences were also guarded toward her because of this incident. How dare that woman have the
cheek to return and be back by Byron‘s side?! If Byron‘s parents were to know about this…
After hearing her father‘s words, Wendy was slightly comforted as an idea formed in her head. What
Henry said next had affirmed her thoughts. “Find a chance to inform Master and Mrs. Lawrence about
the return of that woman. I‘m sure that they’re really unhappy with that woman.”
Wendy nodded and returned to her seat.
As she had calmed down, Henry furrowed his brows and lectured, “That woman has just returned. We
can‘t be sure what Byron thinks of her. Don‘t shoot yourself in the foot. You‘ve been by Byron‘s side all
these years, and your status is evident in Master and Mrs. Lawrence‘s eyes. They know how much
you‘ve sacrificed, and even if it‘s against that woman, they‘ll be on your side. There‘s nothing to be
afraid of.” Her father‘s words were like an anchor in Wendy‘s heart. As serenity returned to her facial
expression, she replied, “Yes, I ‘ll remain calm.”
At the same time, Rosalie had sent the two boys to kindergarten bright and early, right after she had
breakfast. Their teacher was waiting by the gate, and when she saw Rosalie and her two boys, concern
filled her face as she asked, “Are Lucian and Nox feeling better?” Rosalie nodded with a smile.
“They‘re all good now. Thank you for asking.” The two boys greeted their teacher respectfully. “Good
morning, teacher!” The teacher saw how sensible the boys were and affection filled her eyes. As they
were talking, the sound of a car door opening and closing was heard. The bunch of them looked in the
direction of the sound subconsciously. A Bentley was parked distinctly at the side of the road not too far
from them. Byron got out of his car and carried Estie out from the back seat.
The man initially wanted to carry Estie all the way to the kindergarten, but Estie fought to get out of his
embrace when she saw the people standing by the gate. Byron did not insist on carrying her, so he
placed her down like she wanted. He was about to hold her hand when Estie ran from his side.
Byron was stunned for a while as he turned to look toward the gate. He saw Rosalie and her sons
watching his daughter with a smile. Rosalie even took a few steps forward in Estie‘s direction.
