Her Talking Is Also Related to Her
Estie‘s childlike voice was very obvious through the sound of the splash.
Hearing this, Rosalie could not help but be stunned. She had even doubted her ears. She looked at the
little girl squatting down by the pool with a pair of bright eyes.
Nox also stopped what he was doing, stupefied. He ended up getting splashed with water. Estie had
already turned back around to continue playing with the little whale, completely unaware of the shock
felt by all three people. . At the start of the next session, the staff asked them to return to their seats.
Rosalie and the boys still had not recovered yet, but Estie was sitting down next to Rosalie as if nothing
had happened.
“What‘s the matter?” Seeing their haunted appearances, Byron frowned and asked.
Rosalie returned to her senses. She looked at Estie and replied in a low voice, “I think Estie… spoke
just now.”
Moreover, she spoke fluently and had a nice voice.
Byron looked at his daughter with surprise and asked, “What did she say?”
Rosalie could not help but be stunned. She had been so immersed in the surprise that came with the
little girl talking that she had somewhat forgotten.
“She said the little whale kissed her,” she whispered. Nox could not help but wonder at the side, “Isn‘t
Estie nonspeaking?” They had always thought that Estie was nonspeaking and had not heard her
speak since they first saw her.
Byron raised his brow slightly. “When did I ever say that Estie was nonspeaking?”
The two boys looked at each other.
Rosalie hesitated before saying, “But Estie usually doesn‘t speak. You seemed to have specially
prepared a notebook for her to write and communicate with.” Byron felt a little helpless when she
mentioned this. “Estelle usually isn‘t willing to talk due to her autism.
Even I have only heard her say a word or two occasionally. Fortunately, she‘s willing to communicate
with us through writing.” Hearing the reason why the little girl did not talk and then recalling her
breakdown some time ago, Rosalie felt her heart ache.
Byron was feeling complicated. Ever since Estie was found to be suffering from severe autism, the
number of times she spoke was few to none.
The little girl had spoken out of anxiety because Rosalie had left the last time.
If what Rosalie and the boys said was true, Estie had once again spoken in Rosalie‘s presence. This
woman was related to both incidents of her speaking… Could this be the strength of the mother–
daughter bond? Thinking of this, Byron‘s gaze dimmed faintly. He looked at Estie and said in a warm
voice,” Estelle, did you have fun with the beluga just now?”
Estie smiled with dimples showing, but she just quietly nodded and said nothing. Seeing this, Byron‘s
brows were knitted as he patiently continued to try. “What were you playing with the whale? Won‘t you
tell me about it?”
After hearing Estie speak for the first time, Nox was curious and wanted to hear her speak again. He
also urged, “Tell me about it too, Estie! My beluga whale wasn‘t obedient. I was bathing it, but it kept
splashing on me and Brother! Why is yours so obedient?”
Hearing the consecutive questions, her delicate eyebrows furrowed. Finding it a little troublesome, she
turned around and rummaged through the bag that Rosalie had brought. She was trying to find a pen
and paper to write out her answers for them. Byron noticed the little girl‘s intention and frowned. He
said nothing more.
