Meltdown
Byron was caught in surprise as he watched his daughter run after Rosalie‘s car. This little one had
only met Rosalie a few times, but she was so attached to her…
Just as Byron was lost in thoughts, the little girl suddenly fell. He came back to his senses sharply and
quickly. Stepping forward, he took Estie into his arms. “Where did you hurt yourself? Let me have a
look.”
Little Estie hugged his neck tightly and did not want to let go.
While Byron was caught up in the moment, the little girl‘s cries were loud and clear in his ears.
For a split second, he could not believe his ears.
Although she was crying, it was also the first time Estelle made a sound in her whole life.
Estie‘s tiny body shook as she cried hard. She dug her nails into her daddy‘s neck, causing a tingling
pain. Byron quietly endured it and kept trying to comfort the little girl despite battling the complicated
emotions within himself.
“Aunt… I want Aunt…”
Suddenly, Estie said a few words intermittently. Byron stopped dead in his tracks.
He never expected Estie‘s first words to be this.
That woman was so important to her.
It was a very unpleasant feeling in his heart, and he could only tell the little girl the cruel truth, “Aunt is
gone. Don‘t cry. I‘m here for you.” Little Estie still chose to cry with all the strength in her body, twitching
with every sniffle. She exhausted herself completely.
Byron was helpless, so he could only ask for a day off from school for her and send the little girl home.
On the way home, the little girl slowly stopped crying. She just sat quietly in the back, sobbing from
time to time.
When she got home, she paid no one any attention and went back to her room. She slammed the door.
Byron only thought that Estie was just throwing a tantrum with him again. After all, this had often
happened before. Moreover, the company needed him today.
After hesitating for a while, Byron told Mrs. Nora to pay attention to Estie‘s situation and drove to the
company.
In the afternoon, just after he was done with work, Mrs. Nora called. “Master, please hurry home!
Something is wrong with Little Lady!” Her tone was full of sheer panic.
Byron‘s heart dropped to his gut. He put down his work and sped all the way home.
“After you left, I tried to comfort Little Lady, but no matter what I said to her, she didn‘t respond at all…”
Mrs. Zora‘s voice trembled with anxiety.
Byron‘s footsteps were hurried and fast. He walked into Estie‘s room, only to see the little girl curled up
in the corner with empty eyes. There was no response when she saw them coming in.
“Estie, I know you‘re angry. I promise that you can still meet Aunt again, okay?”
Usually, if Rosalie was mentioned, Little Estie would at least have some reactions.
This time, however, Estie did not even move her eyes as if she was completely immersed in her own
world.
Seeing this, Byron‘s heart sank The little girl is having a complete autism meltdown!
Realizing this, Byron immediately called his best friend, Dr. Lucas Montgomery, and asked him to come
over as soon as possible.
Dr. Montgomery has made great achievements in the field of psychology. Over the years, he had been
treating and managing Estie‘s condition.
Lucas got there in no time. Seeing Estie‘s situation, his heart sank He turned around and said to the
two of them, “Please give us a moment. Let me talk to her.”
Byron and Mrs. Zora cooperated and exited the room.
In the room, Lucas patiently spoke to Estie, but no matter what he said, the little girl did not respond at
all. Her eyes were completely empty. Her current situation was worse than her previous episodes.
