My Ex-Wife and Kids Came In Like A Wrecking Ball novel Chapter 147

Chapter 147 Heart Aches

 Byron thought that Rosalie was angry because the boys were upset. He promised as he was feeling sorry, “I didn‘t know before this, but now I do. Don‘t worry, I won‘t mention it in front of them again.”

Rosalie glanced at the children who were playing with Lego blocks in silence. Thinking again about how Byron had brought up the topic of their father with the two boys without her knowledge, she was afraid. Having nothing else to say to Byron, she immediately asked him to leave the house. 

“It‘s getting late. You should go back first, President Lawrence. Thank you for helping me pick up the children today.” Byron hesitated for a moment before nodding. He turned and left. He felt his heart block up terribly during the journey back but still could not figure out the reason.

Byron loosened his tie and sat down on the sofa for a while after getting home, but he still felt uncomfortable.

After a while, he got up, grabbed a bottle of wine from the wine cabinet, and poured himself a glass by the window.

The image of the dinner table tonight gradually came to mind after he had two drinks. The two boys had asked him why he did not like them while looking aggrieved and angry. Thinking of their expressions and tones, Byron felt as if something had twisted his heart. There was a stab of pain.

After Byron left, Rosalie went to the children and played with them for a bit before getting them upstairs to go to bed.

After coaxing Estie to sleep, Rosalie hesitated for a bit before knocking on the boys‘ door.

Lucian and Nox were in bad moods because of what happened tonight and had not fallen asleep.

“Mommy, is something wrong?” Lucian asked in a puzzled voice after he opened the door and saw the person at the door.

Rosalie caressed the little boy‘s head. “Mommy wants to talk to you. Let‘s go in and talk”

“Do you… feel yourselves different from other children? Do you want a father?” Rosalie hesitated before asking. The two boys shook their heads. “No.”

Rosalie frowned slightly. “But…” They were clearly in a bad mood because of what happened tonight.

The two boys hugged her on each arm, their expressions solemn. “Even though we don‘t have a daddy, we have a mommy! Our mommy is the best mommy in the world! No one can match up to you! Everyone is even envious of us!”

With that, Nox looked at his mommy naively as if to prove something. “Estie has her daddy, but doesn‘t she also like Mommy better? Mommy is the best! We don‘t need a daddy!”

Rosalie felt a softness in her heart but also an ache. She hugged the two boys in her arms and said nothing for a long time
