Chapter 678 Common Enemy
Estie pouted as a sorrowful expression appeared on her face. “I can go with the boys, and I won’t need you to take care of me, Auntie.”
Seeing how the little one was still insisting, Rosalie felt a headache begin to form as she said in a persuading tone, “Estie, why don’t you come some other day? I’ll promise I’ll spend time with you then. I really don’t have the time today.”
The little one was just about to reply when Byron said coldly, “ Estie, Auntie has already told you she doesn’t have time today, so stop bothering her.”
Byron was not in the best mood since Rosalie had mentioned the Lancer family just now and thus sounded more solemn.
Estie was frightened by her father’s tone, and her innocent eyes widened, she did not dare say anything else and merely stared at Rosalie with a pitiful look on her face.
The cold breeze had woken up Lucian and Nox. They both felt frightened when they heard their dad speaking so solemnly.
The two boys exchanged glances and thought to themselves that they would never anger their dad in the future because he was so fierce.
Rosalie’s brows furrowed together in displeasure when she heard the man’s tone. She lifted her head and said, “President Lawrence, Estie is still a child. There’s no need for you to unleash your anger on her. You can direct whatever you want to say to me.”
Byron found what she said both irritating and amusing.
The woman was the one who asked him for help, but the minute he spoke up, she stabbed him in the back and said he did not speak in a nice tone.
When Estie realized Rosalie was on her side, she immediately nodded and stared at her dad angrily.
Upon seeing how the two were treating him as a common enemy, Byron massaged his temples tiredly and forced himself to suppress his anger as he tried his best to say calmly, “stop fussing. Auntie hasn’t fully dried herself off yet, and she’ll catch a cold if she stays out here any longer. Estie, say goodbye to Auntie and close the door.”
At the end of the day, they were still father and daughter. Byron knew exactly how to get the little girl to obey him.
