Chapter 159

A Lovely Couple Hearing his mother suddenly mention Byron‘s marriage to Wendy,
Andrius looked at Rosalie who was silent at the side again.

Rosalie‘s features were drooping slightly in a way that others were unable to see her emotions.
However, the corners of her lips were still slightly upturned.

For a while, he could not guess what Rosalie was thinking.

To the side, Andrea had constantly been paying attention to Rosalie. She did not miss the turbulence
that flashed across Rosalie‘s face when her mother mentioned Byron‘s marriage.

Noting the fluctuations in Rosalie‘s mood, Andrea became more and more excited. She echoed her
mother‘s words, “That‘s right, Byron and Wendy are a perfect couple. Even though they haven‘t held
the banquet, who hasn‘t been treating them as if they‘re family all these years?” With that, she glanced
at Rosalie loftily. Melody already had this in her mind. Hearing them mention this, she responded with a
smile, “This matter has really been delayed for a long time. Our two families have also recently been
planning to put their engagement on the agenda. We should be sitting down and talking about it in two
days.”

Andrea wanted to fan the flames more when Byron‘s voice stiffly intervened.

“Old Man Quirke, it‘s your birthday banquet today. I don‘t think you should talk about me.”

Hearing this, Old Master Quirke was stunned for a moment before looking at Byron and Wendy. He just
thought that the two youngsters were embarrassed. He smiled and nodded before diverting the
conversation to something else. It would rude for the others younger than him to bring it up again too.
Rosalie had no reason to feel her heart beat slower, but she also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.



However, the next topic had nothing to do with her, which made her feel out of place. After listening to
the conversation for a while, Rosalie was becoming somewhat impatient and wanted to find a place to
hide and relax. “Old Master, I‘m a little tired. If there‘s nothing else, I‘m going to go get some rest.”
Taking advantage of the gap between their conversation, Rosalie quietly inserted. After she said that,
Old Master Quirke looked over at her with concern. “What‘s the matter? Is something wrong?” Rosalie
smiled shyly. “It‘s nothing. I‘ve been wearing high heels for a long time and my feet are tired. I want to
sit down for a while.” Seeing that she was not feeling ill, the old master did not keep her any longer. He
nodded and

let her go.

Rosalie politely bade the crowd goodbye and turned toward a corner. She could still feel the man‘s
eyes following her after she turned around.

Rosalie‘s body unconsciously constricted as she quickened her pace. “Old Man Quirke, I‘ll be going
over first.”

Byron watched the woman sit down on the sofa in the corner. There were many gazes flitting about her
body, and his own gaze sunk slightly.

Old Master Quirke was confused. “Where are you rushing off to?”

Considering the Lawrence family‘s status and the famous families who came to the birthday banquet
today, only they were in the position to come and greet Byron. There was no reason for Byron to greet
someone of his own accord.

Hence, all Byron needed to do was to stand here.

Byron frowned. For a moment, he was unable to come up with a reason.



Melody, on the other hand, saw through his thoughts and knew that he was hurrying to go look for
Rosalie. She was unhappy. She grabbed his arm and smiled appropriately. “There are several elders
over there who have also cooperated with our family. Since you‘re here, you should go and say hello to
them.” Byron followed her gaze and did see several elders who were friends with the Lawrence family.
After hesitating for a few seconds, he agreed.

Melody winked at Wendy. Wendy took the hint and said, “They‘re all elders I know. I was just thinking of
heading over to greet them too!” With that, she smiled and followed Byron. Byron frowned. There was
no excuse to drive her away, so he could only acquiesce to her following him. To the eyes of the
outsiders, they were a lovely couple.
