My Ex-Wife and Kids Came In Like A Wrecking Ball novel Chapter 204

Chapter 204 It‘s Only A Misunderstanding 

After sitting in the living room for a while, Byron got Mrs. Zora to get Estie down for a meal.

Estie had been obediently staying in her room. When she thought about what Grandmother had said and imagined how the beautiful aunt was going to be her mommy, she really looked forward to it.

While they were eating, she could not help but ask, “Daddy, are you marrying Aunt?”

While she was done, she looked expectantly at her daddy. Since this little girl came back, even if she did not speak a lot with him and only just said a few short phrases, this was her first time saying such a long sentence in one breath. Byron was stunned for a while before noticing the little girl‘s issue. He thought about what this little girl was usually like toward Rosalie, and an odd feeling rose in his heart. 

“You like her a lot?” Estie nodded as a matter of factly. The beautiful aunt was her favorite person! Byron looked at how elated the little girl became while talking about that woman and his eyebrows were locked together. 

“What do you like about her?”

To be completely frank, the amount of time this little girl knew that woman was pathetically short, but she was very reliant on that woman and even closer to her than she was to him.

Byron could not find an explanation for that and could only give credit to the blood relation they had as mother and daughter. Estie had not thought of this question before. When she heard her daddy ask, she tilted her head to a side and pondered seriously. After a while, that little girl began extending her fingers as she replied solemnly.

 “Aunt is pretty, she‘s gentle, she cooks yummy food, and she‘s really, really nice to me…”

Byron heard the little girl‘s answer and continued to ask with a complicated feeling in his heart. “But Aunt has two little boys with her. Would you want them to come live with us as well?” 

Byron snapped back to his senses. His eyes slightly darkened as he avoided the little girl’s expectant gaze. “No.”

At least, not now.

Estie refused to give up and frowned. She remembered what Grandma had said. “But Grandma said…”

…that Daddy wants to marry the beautiful aunt.‘ Before she could finish her sentence, Byron‘s deep, solemn voice cut her off. “It‘s just a misunderstanding.” Byron did not want to continue the conversation any longer and added more food to the little girl‘s plate. “Eat. Finish your food and rest up earlier.” Estie was so excited earlier. She only said so many things just now because she thought Daddy would make the beautiful aunt her mommy.

Now that she had heard her daddy‘s response, she lowered her gaze in disappointment. She had lost her appetite. She scarfed a few mouthfuls of food in her mouth, leaped off her chair, and went back to her room without another word. Watching how dejected his daughter looked, Byron‘s eyebrows furrowed, but he said nothing else.
