Chapter 344 Could Not Help But Relent

After lunch, the boys wanted to play with Estie, but Rosalie stopped them.

“You two can play by yourself. I’m going to send Estie home.”

Rosalie wanted to make it clear to the little one, but she could not say anything cruel when looking at
her face that was full of tear streaks, she would wait and tell her while sending her home.

Hearing Mommy’s words, the two boys nodded obediently even though they were still reluctant to part
with their little sister.

Since she would not be with them, the two little boys did not feel like playing anymore. They just stayed
silently beside Mommy and Estie.

When Estie heard the beautiful aunt’s words, her face was full of reluctance, she noticed that Rosalie
was looking at her, so she pouted and turned her eyes away, refusing to talk to her.

This was the first time the little one had shown such an attitude to her

Rosalie felt distressed when she saw Estie resisting.

If she had another option, why would she want to be so cruel to the little one?

All this while, she had regarded Estie as her little daughter who died.

If she could, she wanted to be with this little girl all the time.

It was just that… Estie’s family was the reason they were destined to remain apart.



As Rosalie looked at Estie’s delicate profile, she took a few seconds to calm down. Then, she casually
held the little girl by her shoulders, she said softly, “Estie, I’ll send you home, alright?”

Estie pretended that she did not hear anything and stared at the ground persistently. As she blinked,
tears welled up in her eyes again.

Rosalie noticed the change in the little girl’s eyes, and her throat choked up. After a while, she frowned
again. “I promised Miss Leigh Ann to send you back. If you stay here for too long, Miss Leigh Ann will
have to tell your daddy. If that happens, your daddy will come to pick you up.”

The implication was that she did not want Byron to be here.

Hearing this, the little girl lifted her head.

Rosalie thought that the little girl would agree and was about to breathe a sigh of relief. However, she
heard her childlike voice say, “Daddy don’t come.”

Hearing this, Rosalie felt a little confused.

The little one had not spoken properly for a long time. Estie continued to stumble over her words, “
Don’t let Miss Ann tell Daddy.”

After that, the little girl cautiously took two steps toward Rosalie, raised her hand, and grabbed the hem
of Rosalie’s clothes pitifully. “Estie want… be with Aunt.”

Rosalie was used to her small gestures, so she did not dodge immediately.

By the time she reacted, the little girl was already glued to her.

Seeing the sad little girl huddled around her, Rosalie’s heart softened to a mess.



During this time, she had been trying very hard to stay away from Byron and Estie. When they met
again, she was already a lot colder toward the little girl. ‘

The little girl had always been very sensitive to the emotions of the outside world, she believed that
Estie must have also sensed her alienation from her.

She thought that over time, the little girl’s dependence on her would gradually diminish.

At the same time, her soft spot for her will gradually disappear as well.

However, she did not expect the little one to like her so persistently. Even after she tried to distance
herself from the little one, Estie was still attached to her as always.

It was the same for Rosalie. Although it had been a long time since she saw Estie’s little face, her heart
could not help but relent every time…

The little one saw that Rosalie did not push her away, so she leaned carefully into the woman’s arms
as if trying to tell her, ‘I know that you don’t like Daddy. Daddy isn’t here now, so please don’t drive me
away.’
