The Last Scene
“Daddy!”
Seeing her daddy come in, Estie hurriedly ran to Byron’s side while pointing to the untouched food on
the dinner table. “You’re finally here. We’re so hungry!”
Byron followed the little girl’s line of sight and saw Lucian and Nox, who were still sitting at the dining
table. They held their chins and looked at him eagerly. There seemed to be a look of accusation in their
eyes.
There were five sets of plates and cutleries on the table, none of which had been moved.
Obviously, all of them were waiting for him to eat together.
Realizing this, Byron looked back at Rosalie who had walked behind him.
Seeing the man’s gaze, Rosalie was stunned for a moment, then she explained nonchalantly, “Estie
said that she wanted to wait for you.”
Byron raised his brows slightly and looked down at the little one beside him.
Estie nodded obediently with a small smile on her face as if she was asking for credit.
Seeing this, Byron raised his hand and touched Estie’s head. She said to Rosalie and the two boys,
“I’m so sorry that I made all of you wait for so long. I didn’t know you were waiting for me.”
Rosalie pursed her lips. “It’s okay. Now that you’re here, let’s eat quickly. We’ll have to rehearse when
we’re done.”
Byron nodded slightly, went in, and washed his hands. He then sat down opposite Rosalie.
After dinner, everyone started rehearsing again.
After several rehearsals, Rosalie knew that Byron could not be trained at all in acting, so she could only
go with the flow.
The three kids acted much better than she expected. Rosalie thought that the little ones would not be
able to recite their lines smoothly. She did not expect that they not only spoke fluently but also had
decent expressions.
At the end of the rehearsal, Estie tilted her head in confusion as she stared at the two adults.
Aware of the little girl’s gaze, Rosalie squatted down in confusion. “Estie, what’s wrong? Is there a
problem?”
Estie frowned, her tone a little hesitant. “Well, Auntie, does sleeping Beauty sleep all the time? I
remember…”
She remembered that sleeping Beauty was woken up by the prince’s kiss at the end! However, every
time they rehearsed, they only acted until the part the prince defeated the witch.
Before the little one could finish speaking, Rosalie could already guess what she wanted to say. she
hurriedly interrupted with a smile, “of course not.”
The little girl’s face was full of confusion. “But we only rehearse until here every time.”
Hearing Estie’s question, Lucian and Nox also came over curiously.
Facing the confused eyes of the little guys, Rosalie frowned slightly, she did not know how to explain
things to them.
Miss Leigh Ann said that the last scene would be done when they were standing. Even so, she still
wanted to avoid close contact with him as much as possible.
Therefore, during these few days of rehearsal, Rosalie would deliberately ignore the final scene.
She did not expect to be called out by the little girl.
Rosalie could not think of an explanation, so she raised her eyes and asked Byron for help.
The man’s face was a little strange.
When he met her gaze, his expression became cold again, what he said also made Rosalie shudder.
“Indeed, I’m also curious, why do you always skip the last scene? That’s the soul of the story of
Sleeping Beauty, isn’t it?”
The kids nodded in agreement.
Rosalie was dumbfounded, and after a while, she got up and walked in front of Byron, she said in a low
voice, “Miss Leigh Ann said it’ll just be a repositioned scene at the end…”
“A repositioned scene is all the more reason we need to rehearse it.” Byron’s brows were slightly raised
as he looked at her meaningfully.
