My Ex-Wife and Kids Came In Like A Wrecking Ball novel Chapter 896

Chapter 896 With Slight Vigilance

Byron got up slowly, and his eyes never left the woman who was standing by the door.

‘When did you learn to use the kids to trick me, Miss Jacobs?”

Rosalie’s eyes flickered, her eyes full of confusion.

‘When did I do such a thing?’

Byron saw the innocent expression on her face. He frowned sharply, picked up his feet, and slowly approached Rosalie.

Rosalie sensed the man’s intention. Her heartstrings tightened, and she stepped back vigilantly, keeping a certain distance from him.

Byron sneered. “If you’re not guilty, why are you hiding, Miss Jacobs?”

Hearing this, Rosalie frowned and hesitantly stopped. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Byron’s face darkened as he pressed on. “Well, you must’ve guessed accurately that I wouldn’t reject the child’s phone call and got Lucian to call me?”

Rosalie’s arms that were slumped by her side tensed slightly.

‘True enough, I did that, but… how is that trickery?

‘Compared to what Byron did to me previously, that’s nothing!’

Byron squinted his eyes deeply. “Since you knew for sure that the kids were here, I naturally wouldn’t refuse to let you in. Why didn’t you just come with them, then?”

With that said, the man’s scrutinizing eyes swept across every inch of Rosalie, and his voice was slow.

“Or did you take advantage of this time to settle some ’work’ with Young Master Xander again?”

Byron put emphasis on the word ‘work’ cryptically.

Immediately after, the man had already stood in front of Rosalie.

Rosalie furrowed her brows at Byron’s sarcasm. As she thought of her anxiety all day long, her gaze showed that she was getting annoyed.
