Chapter 1488 Must Be Tired
When the four returned, Rosalie had prepared dinner and was sitting on the sofa with her eyes closed.
She woke up at the noise in the doorway and opened it.
”Mommy!”
Three little cutie pies came and hugged her legs fondly.
Rosalie looked at them, smiled, and touched their heads. “Did you all have a good time today?”
Nox nodded hard and turned around to look at Byron. His eyes were sparkling with joy as he said, “Yes! Daddy took us to the amusement park and for a movie.”
Rosalie also seemed affected by the little ones’joy and smiled broadly.
After a few seconds, she noticed how the little boy had just addressed Byron, and her smile froze.
She could not ask the little one anything but lifted her head and shot Byron a suspicious look.
Sensing her interrogatory look, he explained calmly, “I asked them to call me that outside. After all, I’ve already issued the announcement, and I’m afraid there’ll be trouble if people hear them calling me Mr. Byron.”
Hearing him say so, a strange feeling rose in Rosalie, and she touched the little ones’ heads, saying nothing.
Her boys calling Byron ‘Daddy’ was a matter of time, and she convinced herself she would eventually need to accept it.
She just hoped they would not blame her when they learned the truth.
“Mommy, I’m hungry.”
Lucian noticed the strange atmosphere and spoke to break the awkward silence.
Rosalie snapped out of her thought. “Let’s go. I’ll heat up the food. You kids go and wash your hands.”
The little ones nodded, took off their shoes, and headed straight to the kitchen.
Byron washed his hands, and Rosalie entered the kitchen after him.
His presence was impossible to ignore.
Thinking of their last kiss here, Rosalie’s actions seemed stiff and uneasy.
“I’m sorry I didn’t ask you before I let the kids change how they address me.”
Byron’s voice came from behind her.
Rosalie stopped doing what she was doing and lowered her eyes to hide her emotion. Then, she said calmly, “It’s nothing. You’re right. They should call you that in public.”
Afraid Byron might mention Lucian and Nox’s identity, Rosalie diverted the topic awkwardly. “I’ve heated the dishes. Let’s have dinner.”
Byron knew Rosalie did not want to mention the little boys’ identities, and he did not ask further either. Instead, he took the dishes and served them on the dining table. 1
The three little ones had seated themselves at the table on the same side, leaving the opposite seats for their daddy and mommy.
Byron sat down calmly.
Rosalie hesitated for a moment before sitting beside the man.
She was indeed a little exhausted from work these days. Moreover, how Nox addressed Byron made her mind drift away even when she was having her dinner.
When a peeled shrimp appeared in her bowl, she finally snapped out of her daze.
‘You must have been tired these two days.” Byron looked at Rosalie with concern.
Rosalie braced herself and smiled. “I’ll be fine after a few days.” Then, she wanted to serve the kids some food.
However, she saw that the little ones’ plates were full.
Next to her, Byron was peeling the shrimp and had yet to eat the food on his plate.
Rosalie was touched upon seeing this and thanked him.
Byron only responded by putting another shrimp on her plate.
