Apology Gifts
Rosalie hesitated for a moment but still asked, “I don‘t think these are for Estie, ves?n Byron admitted
noncommittally, “These are for Lucian and Nox.
I said something wrong a few days ago. I thought about it carefully after I went back and felt that
although they‘re children, I should also apologize to them properly. I noticed some of the things in your
house the last time and figured they should like these.” With that, Byron looked down at the two boys
and handed the boxes to them. “I‘d like to apologize to you two with some presents. I don‘t know if
you‘ll like these?”
The boys‘ eyes were shining. Boys inevitably liked things like robots and race cars. Since their IQ
levels exceeded that of their peers, the things they played with were also more geared toward those for
adults.
Over time, they came to like these high–tech things. They had pestered their mommy to buy them quite
a few, but some of them were really expensive. Although they really liked them, they were sensible and
did not bring it up to her. They did not expect this man to have guessed what they liked!
Nox even unconsciously took two steps toward Byron as he stared at the boxes eagerly.
These were the treasures that he had coveted over the website for a long time. He almost used the
coffers that Lucian earned from stock trading but was ultimately taught a good lesson by him.
Although Lucian also liked them, he still had misgivings about this man who had abandoned Mommy.
He stood there with a taut expression. He just looked at the boxes uncontrollably.
The love on the boys‘ faces was palpable. Nox stared at them for a long time before turning around and
stammering in his request for his mommy‘s permission. If mommy said no, he would not accept them
even if he liked them.
Rosalie saw the expression on the boys‘ faces and felt her heart soften. However, looking at the things
in Byron‘s and Luther‘s hands, she still hesitated.
These models and figures… She had seen the boys browse through them. They were all priceless
limited editions.
The racing model in Byron‘s hand alone was worth more than 200,000 dollars. Coupled with how
sought–after they were in the market, their price could be even higher. She would not stop Byron from
apologizing to the children. She was fine even if he were to give them gifts. These presents, however,
were really too expensive. Seemingly having read his mommy‘s mind, Nox looked at the model
reluctantly and moved back toward Lucian‘s side.
Seeing the boys‘ somewhat disappointed appearance, Rosalie still gave in and said, “President
Lawrence, you‘re very thoughtful. My sons really like these things, but they‘re too expensive. How
about this? How much are these things? I‘ll transfer the money to you.”
Hearing this, Byron‘s brows furrowed. “How does it make sense for me to take your money when these
are apology gifts? Moreover, a lot of Estie‘s toys are also at these prices. I‘m just giving them some
toys. I was even afraid that these things might not be enough to express my apology. How am I to show
my sincerity if you give me money?”
Rosalie was hesitant about what he said.
Indeed, money was nothing but a drop in the bucket for Byron, but she felt sorry for it.
Byron saw through her thoughts and said in a somewhat deep tone, “If you want to be so calculative,
you‘ve been helping to take care of Estelle for the past few days. You even made her situation so much
better. The fee I should be paying you is much higher than this. I wonder if you‘ll accept it?”
Rosalie gave up and nodded to the boys. “Since Mr. Byron is giving them to you guys, take them.”
Hearing this, Lucian thanked Byron politely but also distantly, “Thank you, Mr. Byron.”
