My Ex-Wife and Kids Came In Like A Wrecking Ball novel Chapter 235

Chapter 235 Simply Provoking Her

The sudden ringing of the mobile phone broke the stiff atmosphere at the table. Thinking about the relationship between the woman in front of him and Leon, Byron picked up the call immediately without looking at the caller ID. 

The moment the call connected, a concerned-sounding female voice came from the other end. 

“Byron, I heard from Aunt Melody that you went to North City for business. How is it? Has the matter been solved?” 

Wendy had gone to the company to look for Byron yesterday but did not get to meet him. Hence, she asked Melody about it. It was only then she found out that Byron had gone to North City. Hence, she called him early this morning to offer some words of concern. 

She thought her call would be rejected just like before, but she did not expect to get through to him so quickly. Wendy thought that Byron had finally let go of his prejudice against her, so her voice filled with joy. Hearing Wendy’s voice, Byron frowned slightly. He subconsciously raised his gaze and looked at the woman opposite him. It was very quiet at the table. Although Rosalie and Leon did not mean to, they could still hear the voice from the other end. 

Rosalie’s gaze sank almost the same same time the voice sounded. 

Wendy’s interrogation when they met the last time seemed to still echo in her ears. She had called her the third wheel between her and Byron. 

This phone call also timely reminded Rosalie that no matter how Byron’s attitude was, he was about to be engaged to Wendy and she should keep a distance from him. Thinking of this, Rosalie put down her chopsticks. She bade Byron courteously and got up to leave the table. 

Seeing through Rosalie’s intent, Byron replied without thinking, “I have something else to do. I’ll hang up first.” 

With that, he looked up to say something to Rosalie, but he saw her stagger the moment she got up. Panic jumped on his face. 

Byron frowned fiercely and stood up from his seat before he even hung up the phone. 

Rosalie had walked hastily and accidentally tripped over the stool next to her. Her feet staggered, and she could not help herself from letting out an exclamation. She choked it back almost instantly.
