At this moment, Baillie walked in bringing along her favorite pastries
“You still worried about Rosalynn Baillie placed the food on the side table and settled down next to Paige
Paige feeling disheartened leaned into Baillie’s embrace
Why does life have to mess with people like this? They finally cleared up their misunderstandings, everything was
about to get better Paige’s voice broke off and she quickly covered her eyes with her hand Baillie let out a soft sigh
“Sweetie stop worrying for now you haven’t eaten much today Do you want to try some your favorite pastries?”
Baillie cooed gently

want an orange” Paige mumbled
Baillie immediately peeled an orange for her and fed it to her
After a few bites Paiges mood seemed to lighten up a bit
Baillie, how about I go back the day after tomorrow, and you stay at home with mom and dad for Christmas?”
“They don’t expect me to celebrate with them Baillie said somewhat helplessly. “Ill go with you, and as for
Rosalynn… I guess there will be a lot of issues to deal with in the Bane Corporation once Christmas break is over I
might go talk to her in advance to see if there’s anything I can help with.”
“OK” Paige nodded
Baillieted her another slice of orange
Soon, it was dinner time
For some reason, since they had two more children in the house compared to previous years, it should have been
more lively.
But Rosalynn felt an indescribable sense of chilliness. She thought of the plans Wayne had with her for a family of

the suddenly remembered the last thing she told him when they parted.
She had said she would never forgive him…
Knowing that was what he feared most, she still said it without any hesitation. “Mommy”
Cory’s voice sounded next to her
She quickly regained her composure and smiled, “is Molly looking for you?”

Rosalynn’s eyes stung with tears, “Ableson said, daddy has already sent over the fireworks, after dinner we can all
go out and watch them. Cory said softly.
Ableson, who had been negligent and let his boss get kidnapped right under his nose, was too ashamed to see
Rosalynn now.
“Okay” Rosalynn squatted down, gently touching Cory’s cheek, unable to hold back the tears in her eyes, “That’s
daddy’s Christmas gift for us, we need to watch it happily, okay?” Cory nodded and then hugged Rosalynn gently
“Mommy, don’t be scared, Ivy and I are always with you.” He whispered into her ear.
Rosalynn closed her eyes tightly and held on to Cory.
Ivy, who was sneaking food in the dining room with Molly, turned around and was shocked to see this scene.
Then she turned to Molly and said, “Molly, I think we should stop pushing Cory to learn fighting skills. Just a mention
of it and he’s already stressed out, needing mommy’s hug to recover.”
