At the same time, Old Master Lancer also saw the live broadcast.He doubted his ears when Byron announced that the Lawrence family would cooperate with Rosalie’s research institute and supply medicinal materials to the research institute with the cooperation of the Quirke family.He left the TV on and asked someone to get Xander.“Grandpa, why did you call me over?”Xander was confidently waiting for Rosalie to give in. Thus, he did not think much when Old Master Lancer called him over.However, just as he walked in, he saw the live broadcast on the TV, and his smile faded.“Let me ask you, how far has our cooperation with Dr. Jacobs gone?” Old Master Lancer was still hoping for some luck.The press conference was broadcasted live on TV.Xander knew he could hide it no more and could only make it sound less serious. “As you have seen, it didn’t go smoothly.”Hearing this, Old Master Lancer slammed his walking cane on the ground. “How bad is it? Is it so bad that Dr. Jacobs nee
Xander did not care how angry his grandfather was, but he tried to convince him. “Grandpa, Dr. Jacobs insisted on pricing the drug at 120 bucks each. I don’t think anyone can accept such a low price. This is a losing business.”Old Master Lancer felt his vision turn dark. He almost fainted.He never expected the heir he had carefully picked to be so interested in profit!“Is the Lancer family so poor that we need such little profit?” He gasped at his chest and scolded Xander.Xander hung his head in silence. Although he did not speak, it was enough to show his attitude.He still thought the deal was a loss and not worth doing.Old Master Lancer looked at his grandson and felt disappointed. “I chose you as the heir of the Lancer family because I thought you’d understand that the reputation of the Lancer family depends on the benevolence of a doctor, not the profit we make!”Xander answered gloomily, “I understand.”Old Master Lancer glared at his grandson. “No! You don’t! Before
The news of the cooperation between the three companies caused an uproar.In a villa in the suburbs, Andrea sat on the sofa as she looked at Alistair cautiously.The man stood before the coffee machine, making the coffee elegantly.After a while, Alistair brought the coffee he had made to her. “Miss Quirke, it’s thanks to you that we had a happy cooperation.”His smile attracted Andrea. When he thanked her, she responded with a smile, “It’s nothing. All I did was mention that to my brother.”The trading company Andrius contacted for Rosalie was introduced by Andrea.The company was under Alistair’s name, and he told Andrea about it. All Andrea did was convey what he had told her to her brother.Andrius was having trouble with getting the suppliers. Thus, Andrea suggested the company. Her brother investigated it and found that the company was qualified. He did not think much about it and even praised her.With that in mind, Andrea looked at Alistair gratefully. “I should thank y
Xander drove back to Lancer Corporation as soon as he left the Lancer family’s residence.On the way back, he played back the live broadcast of the press conference.He was so annoyed as he watched Rosalie and Byron being so harmonious on the screen!When he arrived at the office, there was an obvious shift in the way the employees looked at him.The news of Rosalie's cooperation with Lawrence Corporation had gone public."What are you looking at? Go back to your respective seats and work!" Xander roared angrily.Everyone looked away awkwardly and scrambled back to work respectively.Xander stomped his way back to the office and slammed the door shut."Mr. Lancer..."The assistant came in cautiously from the outside and asked for his instruction. "Should we continue to keep the batch of medicinal materials we reserved for the research institute?"Before Xander was sure that Rosalie would turn back to seek their cooperation, so he instructed the company to keep a batch of medi
Lawrence Manor.After the press conference, Andrius bid farewell tactfully and left without intruding on the couple’s privacy.At first, Byron wanted to take Rosalie out to celebrate. However, they thought of the three kids at home and decided to pick them up first.After all, the two of them had been busy with work, and it was indeed a long time since they all went out to have fun."Daddy! Mommy!"As soon as the two entered the door, the little ones greeted them enthusiastically.Rosalie had just solved a problem and was in a good mood. She smiled and opened her arms but only hugged Estie.Byron picked up Lucian and Nox in each arm.The two little boys were lifted in the air and laughed happily. "We can fly!"Byron held their collars and spun them in circles cooperatively. The boys stretched their arms wide, pretending that they were little airplanes.The father and sons were having fun, but Rosalie was terrified watching them."Put them down. That's too dangerous."Only t
After dinner, the three little ones sensibly went aside to play.Byron specifically informed the manager that he would bring his children, so the manager changed the layout of the restaurant. He turned a corner into a small children's playground equipped with a lot of video games. The little ones had a great time.Byron and Rosalie stood on the terrace, watching the night view."Thank you."Rosalie turned her head to look at the man with gratefulness in her eyes.Byron frowned slightly, his eyes showing a glint of playfulness. "Just thank you?"Rosalie was slightly distressed. "Let's treat Young Master Quirke to dinner some other day. As for you, I haven't decided what to give you..."She knew that Byron would not be satisfied with just a thank you.Byron embraced her from behind, trapping her between himself and the railing. He handed her a glass of red wine.Rosalie raised her hand to take it.A deep voice whispered behind her, "I don't need a gift. You’ve already given me
Just when she felt sorry for her waist, Byron came out of the bathroom.Rosalie's heart tightened."Go to bed early. You’ve been exhausted these two days." Byron came over and kissed her on the lips.Suddenly, Rosalie could not respond.Byron frowned slightly. "Well, if you want it, it’s my husbandly duty to satisfy you."Rosalie's face burned hot. She got into the quilt silently and buried herself in it.After a while, the sound of the hair dryer stopped. Byron lifted the other side of the quilt and got into bed. He pulled her into his arms and fell into a deep sleep.It was a good night's sleep.Early the next morning, Rosalie was full of energy when she woke up.Andrius' call came in early in the morning.Byron was still in the bathroom. Rosalie hesitated for a moment before she picked it up."Andrius, what's the matter?"Andrius' eyes flashed with surprise upon hearing her voice. "Sister-in-law?"Without waiting for Rosalie to respond, he asked cautiously, "I didn't bo
After a busy day, Linda urged Rosalie to pause for lunch.This batch of medicinal materials was a bit large.Rosalie just wanted to eat something nearby and then resume work.Unexpectedly, she heard a car honk as soon as she went out.She paid no mind and continued walking. Yet, the horn kept blaring.Rosalie realized belatedly that the person was here for her.She turned to look and saw a car parked not far from the entrance of the institute. The car window was lowered halfway, revealing Xander’s face inside."Miss Jacobs." Xander smiled familiarly at her as she turned around.Rosalie frowned slightly and stood there without approaching. "Mr. Lancer, I'm sorry, but I'm busy and can’t talk now."With that, she turned around and wanted to walk toward the restaurant.The horn sounded again, and the car slowly followed her."Miss Jacobs, there’s no righteousness in buying and selling. We were friends before. Won't you even give me time to chat?"Along with the horn, Xander's v
