Disregarding It
At the same time, in the Lawrence family’s mansion. After Byron sent Wendy away in the evening, she
returned and looked for Melody straight away. Melody thought that there was finally news about Estie
after seeing Wendy. She asked her at once, “Why did you come back? Did you manage to find Estie?”
Wendy shook her head in a distraught manner.
An accusatory expression formed on Melody’s face upon seeing Wendy’s gestures. “Why did you come
back when Estie hasn’t been found yet? Don’t you know how to help the others look for her?”
Regardless of how much she took Wendy’s side, Wendy had gone overboard this time around. After
hearing what she said, a guilty expression appeared on Wendy’s face. “Aunt, I wanted to help them
look for her, but—”
“But what?!” Melody asked her angrily.
Wendy raised her eyes. Tears welled up in her eyes as she looked at Melody pitifully.” However, Byron
blamed me for not taking good care of Estie and asked me to scram. He looked extremely panicked, so
I didn’t dare to cause him more frustration by staying back.”
Melody had only heard her mention on the phone that Estie ran out because she did not look after her
well. However, she had no idea what actually happened.
After finding out that Byron had gotten angry at Wendy over this incident, Melody felt rather perplexed.
“What happened? Why did Estie go missing after running off herself?”.
Wendy lowered her gaze and spoke up in a tearful tone as she explained everything, “After I arrived, I
realized that Byron and Rosalie were staying in the same room as there weren’t enough rooms in the
hotel. Therefore, I wanted to help him change rooms.”
At this point, Wendy raised her head slightly and glanced at Melody’s reaction. She then said softly, “I
went down to ask if there were any empty rooms. As soon as I entered the elevator, Estie suddenly
followed me in. I didn’t know what she was up to. I didn’t expect her to run out the moment the elevator
doors opened. I didn’t manage to react in time…”
After hearing what she said, Melody’s expression grew even more unpleasant. She guessed that her
granddaughter did that because she did not want to leave Rosalie.
What did Rosalie do to charm Estie? Even though they were mother and daughter, that woman had
disregarded Estle after giving birth to her. Why was Estie so dependent on her?! Besides Melody
frowned when she thought about what Wendy said. “Byron and Rosalie were slaying in the same
room?”
Wendy nodded in an aggrieved manner. “There weren’t enough rooms in the hotel. Of course, I
couldn’t say anything about it. I just felt that this wouldn’t be good for their reputations, so I thought of
switching rooms for them. However, I didn’t expect Estle to get so angry. I was being inconsiderate li’s
all my fault.”
Melody’s face darkened she let Wendy enter the living room and said to her, “It isn’t your
fault. You did the right thing. Both of you are about to get engaged soon. Byron shouldn’t be staying
with Rosalie!” “However, if it weren’t for this incident, Estie wouldn’t have run away in anger…” Wendy
sobbed and quivered. “It’s already so late, yet there’s still no news about her. I’m afraid that something
will happen to Estie. She’s still so young… If anything happens to her, I really don’t know if I’ll be able
to forgive myself!”
Melody’s heart sunk when Wendy mentioned Estie. However, she did not blame everything on Wendy
as she did just now. She comforted her instead, saying, “Don’t panic. Byron is still looking for her.
Nothing will happen to Estie.”
Wendy sobbed and said, “Estie went missing because I didn’t look after her well. I’m afraid that Byron
won’t forgive me. He was furious just now. I thought that…”
She thought that Byron would take action against her as he did previously.
However, Byron did not do so.
Naturally, Wendy did not think that he was not angry as he was previously. She simply felt that Byron
was completely disregarding her.
Melody frowned and said, “That won’t happen. It wasn’t your fault this time around. He’ll come to a
realization when he calms down.”
