Chapter 155 This Was Obviously On Purpose
Rosalie gave the old master his last treatment before the birthday banquet. The old master was also in much better spirits than before. He could even get out of bed to move around. He just could not walk for too long.Rosalie prescribed some medicine for him again and told the old master to take it on time. The entire treatment was then over.Finally, it was the day of the birthday banquet.After finishing her work at the research institute, Rosalie went home and gave herself a simple makeover. After changing her clothes and tying up her long hair, she then went to the banquet donning simple and elegant makeup.When she arrived at the Quirke family’s manor, the birthday banquet was just about to begin. There were many luxury cars parked outside the manor. Walking in, the hall was full of guests, all of whom were prominent figures of Coast City.Rosalie had lived in Coast City for a period of time before this. She knew many of the faces, but only a handful of people knew her.Neve
Chapter 156 Show Rosalie Who’s Boss
After waiting for a long time, Wendy finally came out of the compartment."Not bad. Just wear this one." Melody looked at her dress and nodded with satisfaction.Wendy smiled obediently and turned to Byron. "Byron, you're here!"Byron nodded expressionlessly.Wendy pretended not to have noticed his indifference and said with a smile, "Aunt Melody asked me to come here with her to pick a dress together. Do you think this dress is fine?”Saying this, she spun around once lightly.Byron was a little displeased that his mother had arranged this. Hearing this, Byron just glanced at her before nodding perfunctorily. "It’s fine."Seeing that he was still indifferent, Wendy was a little embarrassed, but she still wore a smile on her face.To the side, Melody finally got up. "Wendy, since you’re also going to the Quirke household, just come with us."Wendy responded with a smile, "Thank you, Aunt Melody!"After saying that, she timidly looked at Byron who was at the side as if she had
Chapter 157 Good Things Are Coming
When she said that, the Quirkes looked toward the door of the villa one after another. Rosalie also subconsciously followed.They saw Byron dressed in a black custom suit, which was carefully tailored to outline the man's toned body. His hair was combed back, revealing his sharp facial features. A few strands of hair had fallen onto his forehead, setting off the man's cold eyes. His entire person exuded an air of aloofness.For a moment, all the guests' eyes fell on him.Wendy was a few steps behind Byron. She wore a high-profile crow-black dress. Her carefully curled hair hung on her chest, and her red lips were eye-catching. She was entirely wrapped around Melody's arm affectionately while following Byron's steps closely.Her dress looked like it matched Byron's suit, just like a couple. With how intimate she was with Melody, it was practically an announcement to everyone that Wendy would be the future young mistress of the Lawrence family.Seeing this, Andrea glanced at Rosalie
Chapter 158 We Will Attend Your Engagement Party
Rosalie did not speak again after greeting them. It would be rude for her to leave without informing Old Master Quirke, so she could only just stand there quietly and listen to their conversation.Melody withdrew her gaze from Rosalie and looked at Old Master Quirke with concern, "Your good health is really a great blessing for the Quirkes."Old Master Quirke nodded with a smile as he turned to Rosalie and said, "It’s all thanks to Dr. Jacobs. If it weren't for her, I'm afraid I'd still be lying down in bed!"Everyone's eyes fell on Rosalie after he said that.Clara echoed, "Dr. Jacobs is a great benefactor of the Quirkes."Just those few words pushed Rosalie in front of Melody and her group.Rosalie’s slight frown was imperceptible as she calmly replied, "I’m not a benefactor. This is what I should do as a doctor. I'm also very happy to be able to treat the old master."Seeing her so modest, Old Master Quirke appreciated her even more.Seeing the old master's attitude toward R
Chapter 159 A Lovely Couple
Hearing his mother suddenly mention Byron's marriage to Wendy, Andrius looked at Rosalie who was silent at the side again.Rosalie's features were drooping slightly in a way that others were unable to see her emotions. However, the corners of her lips were still slightly upturned.For a while, he could not guess what Rosalie was thinking.To the side, Andrea had constantly been paying attention to Rosalie. She did not miss the turbulence that flashed across Rosalie's face when her mother mentioned Byron's marriage.Noting the fluctuations in Rosalie's mood, Andrea became more and more excited. She echoed her mother's words, "That’s right, Byron and Wendy are a perfect couple. Even though they haven’t held the banquet, who hasn’t been treating them as if they’re family all these years?"With that, she glanced at Rosalie loftily.Melody already had this in her mind. Hearing them mention this, she responded with a smile, "This matter has really been delayed for a long time. Our two
Chapter 160 Do You Know How Much Of A Nuisance You Are?
Andrea looked at the two of them, then at Rosalie who was sitting in the corner. Her heart was filled with pride as she made up an excuse to leave the elders."Oh, why are you sitting here alone, Dr. Jacobs?"Rosalie's mind was a mess. She had finally gotten to sit down in the corner and have some free time. She wanted to sort out her thoughts when suddenly the strange voice sounded in her ears.Looking up, she saw Andrea standing in front of her in high spirits.Seeing this, Rosalie frowned slightly. A touch of irritability flashed through her heart.Just now, Andrea had been generous with her praise about how good of a match Byron and Wendy were in front of the elders.It was obviously all for her ears.However, she did not expect this person to catch up with her even after she had left.Andrea did not notice her displeasure at all. She looked at her contemptuously and motioned her to look at Byron and Wendy standing among the crowd not far away. "Look, Byron and Wendy are a
Chapter 161 Highly Displeased
Rosalie smiled apologetically. "My apologies, I'm not really in the mood." Her refusal was quite indirect, and the gentleman was a little regretful, but he did not force it. He turned around and left.It was finally quiet again.Rosalie was about to sort out her thoughts when suddenly she heard a familiar male voice."Rosalie? Is that you?"Hearing this, Rosalie looked up in the direction of the voice. Just a few steps away was a man dressed in an iron-gray tuxedo. The handsome gentleman was looking at her in surprise.When their eyes met, Rosalie's eyes lit up. There was also some surprise in them. "Leon? Could there be such a coincidence?"Leon was a senior student she met abroad and was also of the outstanding individuals of the younger generation in the world.This senior had helped Rosalie a lot when she was abroad in many aspects. Their relationship was also very good.Rosalie had not had the opportunity to contact him after returning home because she had been busy with
Chapter 162 What Is Her Relationship With Him?
After seeing them interact several times, Andrius more or less noticed something.At the very least, he realized that Byron's attitude toward Rosalie was different from what he had imagined.After learning about their relationship, Andrius kept thinking that Byron would ignore Rosalie, but the result was quite the opposite.Byron seemed to be helping the woman both openly and secretly.To Wendy, however, he was giving her somewhat of a cold shoulder.Looking at the way their relationships were, Andrius faintly realized that Byron was paying more attention to Rosalie. Hence, he put forth such a proposal after witnessing the scene in front of him as well as Byron's sudden cold mood.Byron frowned even more, but he did not answer. His expression was cold.Andrius understood him very well, so he spoke again as if he was troubled, "Dr. Jacobs is a very important guest of mine. It’s not nice to just leave her there. I should still go over and offer my greetings. Would you like to go t
