Chapter 1538 Don't Take It Personally
Byron raised his eyebrows slightly.
Mere seconds of Rosalie's silence were enough for him to catch something wrong with the situation. This little
woman was hiding something from him.
Following her answer, Byron asked calmly, “Why didn't he want to negotiate today? Isn't it better to decide on
profits as soon as possible?"
Rosalie's eyes drooped slightly. "He drank some wine and didn’t feel right to talk about business." 'Drank wine?’
Byron's eyes narrowed slightly. "A lot of businesses are negotiated over wine. As the heir of the Lancer family, I'm
sure Xander must have negotiated many deals over wine. If he refuses you, there must be some other reasons."
Rosalie's eyes flickered. It was hard to talk about what happened just now.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt'I can’t tell him the negotiation failed because I rejected Xander's confession.'
Although she did not feel the same about Xander, she felt confessions are a private matter, especially for the one
who confessed.
"Maybe he felt today is a time for celebration, inappropriate for serious business talks."
She bit the bullet to cover up and looked at Byron cautiously. "I want to go to Lancer Corporation to talk to him
tomorrow. Do you have time? Can you go with me?"
After what happened just now, she could not face Xander alone tomorrow.
Moreover, she needed Byron's expertise regarding the details of the contract.
Of course, Byron would not refuse.
He was dissatisfied because she was evading the truth. However, the little woman asked him to meet Xander
together, so he did not mind letting that go.
The topic between them gradually shifted. They started talking about the contract tomorrow.
Benedict and Melody had not returned to the Lawrence Manor yet. The three little ones surrounded Mrs. Zora,
telling her interesting things that happened in kindergarten.
Mrs. Zora was amused by them and could not stop laughing.
When the two came back, the three little ones immediately turned their attention and greeted them.
"Mommy! Daddy!”
Rosalie was immediately at ease when she saw the three little ones. She beamed as she hugged them. "Did you
obediently listen to Mrs. Zora today?
The little guys nodded vigorously. "Of course, we did!"
Mrs. Zora also agreed with a smile. "The young masters and the little lady were great. They were super helpful
too!"

so she smiled and patted their heads.
'Let's eat first,” Byron said in a deep voice.
Rosalie was puzzled. "Shouldn’t we wait for Uncle Benedict and Auntie Melody to come back for dinner?"
Byron took out his phone and showed her. "My dad just sent me a message. He’s taking my mom out for dinner, so
we can go ahead with dinner."
Rosalie was relieved at Benedict's text. She could somewhat guess the reason for Benedict's gesture.
If he brought Melody back, the dinner would definitely be unpleasant. He was considerate of her and the children.
Rosalie was deeply grateful when she realized Benedict's intention.
"They will move out in two days. Whatever my mom says during this time, don't take it personally. If you have
anything to say, just tell me and I will communicate with her."
Byron comforted her with a hug around her shoulders. His eyes filled with steady reassurance.
Rosalie pursed her lips and smiled. "I know, it's going to be tough on you.” "My attitude toward you before caused
my mother’s misunderstanding towards you. That’s why your relationship with her has become so estranged now. I
should have resolved this." Byron looked at her in all seriousness.
