"Mommy, let's go try on clothes!"Estie saw that her mommy was in a bad mood, so she gently tugged at her hand.Rosalie looked down at the little girl, knowing Estie was trying to divert her attention. She nodded cooperatively before leading the little girl upstairs.Lucian and Nox began to study various functions of the computer."What do you want to learn? I can teach you." Byron sat down next to the two little boys and took the initiative to get closer to them.The two little guys were about to log in to their respective accounts. When they saw their daddy sitting down, they stopped, silently fearing that they would be exposed.Lucian put on an innocent expression. "Daddy, what do you want to teach us? We want to learn everything!"Byron thought about the two little boys’ age but could not think of anything suitable for them to learn.He had no choice but to say, "Let me teach you some simple programming." He was the one who had suggested teaching them something and the two
Even though they had reunited after having been separated for six years, Rosalie had always resisted Byron's touch.Now that she had finally accepted him, Byron was eager to make up for the six years he missed.Initially, he wanted to give the woman two days to recover, but he never expected her to be so alluring today.Whether it was the seriousness with which she negotiated with Xander or the love she finally showed him while they went shopping, she left a strong impression on him.Everything made it difficult for Byron to hold back.Byron could not help himself when she wore the dress he personally picked.Rosalie became breathless as he kissed her and was afraid Mrs. Zora and the children would return unexpectedly, so she raised her hand to stop him.Byron finally let go of his hand on the back of her neck and turned to caress her lips.Rosalie shrank back. "What's wrong?"Rosalie's heart tightened for a moment when she saw the deep love in the man's eyes. She could not he
"Daddy!"Downstairs, Mrs. Zora was helping the three little ones with breakfast.As they saw Byron coming down, the little ones greeted him in unison.Estie asked in discontent, "Daddy, where's Mommy? My dress is ruined..."Byron frowned slightly and took a look at the little one.Estie was wearing the dress that Rosalie put on for her last night, but the little wings on the back were taken off at some point."Where are the wings?" he asked.Estie looked accusingly at Nox beside her.Nox raised his hand apologetically. "I accidentally tore them off. I'm sorry, I’ll fix them for her!"The little boy's tone was deeply remorseful.Byron stroked the little boy's head to comfort him, then squatted down to take a look.He remembered that the wings on the back of Estie's dress were originally detachable.However, he just did not pay attention to how to attach them.After pondering for some time, Byron stood up and said, "It's not ruined. You can still put them on again. However,
Rosalie listened carefully to his explanation.Byron continued, "What you need to do is push Xander's bottom line and raise the price little by little. If he wants the profits, he won’t be able to refuse you."Rosalie nodded. "I understand."Byron raised a single brow at her. "How smart. As expected of the young lady of the Lawrence family."Rosalie pretended to be irritated by his teasing. She turned her head, wanting to ask Mrs. Zora to help her clear out the guest room for her.However, where was Mrs. Zora?"What are you looking for?"Byron had clarity in his tone.Rosalie was annoyed and asked, "Where's Mrs. Zora?"This answer was within Byron's expectations.The man looked at her amusedly. "Why would Mrs. Zora be in our little world?"With that, he grabbed her a little harder. "Or do you want her to see how I serve you?"Rosalie blushed at what he said and tried to brush his hand away.Byron saw through her and admitted his mistake with a smile. "I know I was wrong. I
Rosalie only rested at home for one day.Early the next morning, Byron tried to persuade her to rest at home. Rosalie was swayed by his persuasiveness until she received a phone call from Linda."Dr. Jacobs, there’s something wrong with our agreement with Lancer Corporation, and you may need to come forward to solve it."Linda's tone sounded serious.Rosalie's expression changed as well. "What happened?"Something told her that Xander could not sit still and became irritated out of embarrassment.According to Byron's advice, her initial plan was to let Xander cool off for a few days before approaching him about the profit distribution.She did not expect Xander to be so restless.Linda's answer was not what she expected."We ran out of medicinal materials for the development of medicines. We contacted Lancer Corporation as usual, and they responded that they won’t supply them to us."Linda did not take part in the negotiation between Rosalie and Xander, and she was unaware th
Rosalie frowned tightly as she realized the severity of the problem.There was no trace of yesterday's relaxation on her face.The Institute cannot wait any longer.Those who are sick cannot wait any longer either."I'm going to the research institute."Without hesitation, she got up and went upstairs to change.Byron knew he could not persuade her, so he kept quiet.Once Rosalie came down from upstairs, Byron said to her, "I won't go with you this time. I've already explained the matter to you very clearly. You should know what to say to him."Rosalie pursed her lips as she smiled, seeing how much he believed in her. "Okay, I'll take care of it."Byron nodded. "Call me if you need anything."Rosalie agreed and left the villa quickly.When she arrived at the institute, Linda was waiting at the door of her office with a gloomy face.Rosalie’s arrival was like a savior to Linda. "Dr. Jacobs, what should we do now? The factory is already calling to ask."Everything was ready
Xander sent the meeting place to her immediately.Rosalie took a look at the text, only to see that Xander had chosen the tearoom where they parted ways last time.He seemed to be taking this opportunity to humiliate her.In the past, Rosalie would definitely refuse without hesitation.However, this time, she had no choice but to meet him on time.When she arrived, Xander was already sitting in the tearoom, flicking the incense burner leisurely.He did not response even when she entered the room.Rosalie lowered her eyes and said, "Mr. Lancer."As if he had just noticed her, Xander suddenly turned around and gave her a very professional smile."You’re here, Miss Jacobs? I didn't even notice, please have a seat!"Rosalie nodded slightly and sat down calmly next to him. Xander was still fiddling with the incense burner carelessly.Xander explained as if he noticed her gaze. "This incense has a calming effect. I’m letting it burn faster, in order to prevent us from quarreling l
"As I said, this matter has nothing to do with him, and he doesn’t know that I came here today."Rosalie pushed past the discomfort in her heart and looked at the person in front of her as calmly as possible. "Mr. Lancer, your primary goal is to increase Lancer Corporation's profit share, correct? I can only say that a 50-50 profit split is out of the question for me. Why don't we both take a step back and think about it?”Xander sneered. "You’d better be true to your word, Miss Jacobs. I hope President Lawrence is completely unaware of today's matter, otherwise, if he suddenly appears in the middle of our discussion, then I don’t think there’s anything we can talk about anymore."Rosalie did not want to hear him say Byron's name again. "Mr. Lancer, what is the minimum share you are willing to accept?"Xander replied without hesitation, "I have already mentioned, even if Lancer Corporation doesn’t take the majority, we will share at least 50-50 with your research institute."Rosal
