Byron took Rosalie and headed to the kindergarten to pick the kids up. The kids cheered because their Daddy finally recovered from his cold and fever.
"Daddy, I have pocket money. I'll treat you to dinner today, okay? You just fell sick and need something delicious." Estie blinked her beautiful eyes as if she had made up her mind.
"Where did you get your pocket money? Didn’t Grandpa put all your birthday allowance into your savings?" Byron asked curiously.
Rosalie also found it interesting. She missed so many moments of her daughter's growth, immediately picked her up, and asked, "Estie, have you saved a lot of birthday allowance?"
Estie nodded proudly. "So much birthday allowance, so many zeros. Grandpa helped to keep them. My pocket money now is from helping other children make cards, and they gave me money."
"Oh, really?" Byron looked at Lucian and Nox for confirmation.
The little ones nodded.
Lucian replied, "The cards made by Estie are very beautiful. Many children buy their own materials and ask her to help make them. The fee is 20 dollars each, I helped set the price. We’ve made a lot, around a few hundred dollars.”
‘Making money at a young age!’
Byron and Rosalie looked at each other with a sweet smile in their eyes.
"Daddy, Mommy, Estie is still making cards for you, but it's not finished yet. It would be very beautiful; you can look forward to it." Nox has a big mouth and could not keep secrets at all.
Immediately, Estie pouted to protest. "Nox, didn't we agree to not reveal it in advance?"
Nox stuck out his tongue and made a face.
This time, Byron and Rosalie were intrigued. Both of them looked forward to what the card would look like.
"Alright then, thanks for your treat today! Estie is awesome!"
On the other hand, Lucian and Nox looked a little scared, and they could not help but hide behind Byron.
Their reaction made Byron even colder. He picked up the boys, disregarded whatever his mother wanted to do, bypassed her and went straight into the hall.
Melody was stunned. Her lips moved, but she could not speak.
There were mixed feelings on her face. She halted for a while, continued smiling, turned around, and followed them into the hall.
Her smile was awkward.
"Byron, Rosalie, I bought some gifts for Lucian and Nox. Winter is coming soon, and they are growing fast, so it's time to change their clothes. Of course, there are also some hand-made toys, which I don’t really understand either. I wonder if they would like it or not?”
Melody's soft tone was quite different from her previous image. She even sounded mildly pitiful.
