"I will develop an antidote."Rosalie was determined. “If we give in to his request this time, he’ll make even more unreasonable demands the next time we ask for the antidote. Should we agree to everything?"Then, she questioned Byron with dissatisfaction, "Didn't you say you believe in me? Since I said it, I’ll make it happen!"Byron already knew that Xander would do this, but he accepted the terms for the sake of Rosalie's survival.Now, he gradually gained confidence seeing how determined his woman was.The two looked at each other for a long time, and Byron made a concession. "Alright, then we’ll do as you said. That statement is invalid, and our partnership remains."A smile appeared on Rosalie's face when he compromised.Byron stood up after they concluded this matter.Rosalie thought he was coming to bed with her, so she scooted aside to make space.Byron looked longingly at her. "I want to accept my wife's invitation, but you’ve only just recovered. This bed is so smal
‘Rosalie? Isn't she with Byron? Why didn’t Byron answer my call? Why is Rosalie calling instead?’Xander was full of suspicion. The phone rang for a while before he picked it up."Awake already, Miss Jacobs?"On the other end, Rosalie's voice was full of anger."Xander, I overestimated you. As the heir to the Lancer family and as a doctor, I never imagined you'd use your medical skills to poison me! Aren't you ashamed of abusing the Lancer family's century-old legacy?"Xander's eyes turned cold from her condemnation. The corners of his lips slowly curled up. "You’re still able to throw accusations at me. You seem quite energetic!"Rosalie shot back coldly. "It's all thanks to you!"Xander narrowed his eyes slightly and sneered. "Since you know that I did it, then you should know that your life is still in my hands! You'd better be polite to me!"Then, he asked in a cold voice, "Where is Byron? Put him on the phone!"Rosalie refused without hesitation. "He has nothing to say to
The call disconnected, and Byron's expression froze slightly. There was so much he wanted to say.He held his tongue in the end after some consideration.His woman needed to focus on finding a way to develop an antidote now.As for the rest, he would take care of it.Worst-case scenario, he would just bow down to Xander again.Rosalie noticed that he was still visibly worried, so she comforted him softly, saying, "The blood test results should be out soon. I’ll find a solution."Byron's face softened slightly. "I believe in you."There was silence again in the ward.Byron knew that Rosalie was thinking about the antidote again, so he kept quiet so as to not disturb her again.Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.Rosalie put her thoughts aside and looked at the door in puzzlement, thinking that Mary came back after a night's rest.Byron stood up and opened the door.He felt instantly more relaxed when he saw the person at the door."Byron, Old Master Loewe may have disc
"Sir, are you Old Master Loewe?"Finally recovering from the shock, Rosalie mentally matched the person in front of her with the photo of the Old Master when he was young.Old Master Loewe nodded. He asked with concern. "How are you feeling now?"Rosalie sat up straight respectfully. "Thank you for your concern, sir. I feel better now for the time being. It's rude of me to sit and greet you like this."She tried to get out of bed as she spoke.The old man waved his hand. "It's okay, you are a patient. Don’t bother with the formalities."He turned to look at Byron. "How did Miss Jacobs wake up? Did some expert develop the antidote?"Byron pressed Rosalie's shoulders, made her sit on the bed, and said, "I managed to get some from Xander Lancer, but the dosage was not enough to remove all the toxins in Rosalie's system. I’m afraid I’ll still your help for the remaining poison, sir."Old Master Loewe nodded knowingly. "Of course."He re-emerged from hiatus this time with the sole
"I would’ve seen the other herbs in the Lancer’s ancient medical books."When Old Master Loewe could not figure out the remaining herbs, Rosalie said hesitantly, "I should be able to figure it out according to the clues you gave. Just give me some time."Old Master Loewe was surprised to hear that Rosalie had read the Lancer’s ancient medical books. However, he did not show it. "Other herbs were easy to figure out. However, Xander would not concoct the most important materials so simply.”As long as they cannot figure out that single herb, developing an antidote can only be a dream!Andrius carefully expressed his speculation. "I think it isn’t just the herbs that were complicated. Xander was so sure that we couldn’t develop an antidote. Perhaps, he used an unusual method to concoct the poison; that's why the ingredients were so difficult to distinguish."Otherwise, it would never have been such a struggle to find a clue with Old Master Loewe and Rosalie’s medical skills.The atm
Rosalie looked a little apprehensive. "You must be unfamiliar with the instruments in the laboratory, right?"After all, Andrius has been acting as the person in charge of Quirke Enterprise all these years. He must not quite out of touch with the R&D of Quirke Enterprise for a long time.At such a juncture, Rosalie dared not take such risks.Andrius rubbed his nose in embarrassment. "I had no choice. What if I find a reliable technician from our company?"Rosalie shook her head. "No, I must do this. I don't trust others. Can you understand where I’m coming from?"Andrius nodded knowingly. "I understand, this is a life-or-death situation for you, and being meticulous is a given. However..."He carefully glanced at his buddy.The look on Byron’s face told him that his buddy would never let Rosalie go on her own."Xander boldly declared that nobody would be able to decode his poison. He must have played some tricks in terms of the materials and development. I have worked with him
Rosalie had no choice but to give up returning in person due to Byron’s insistence. So she urgently came up with another plan."Miss Wilson's medical skills seemed great too."Byron frowned. "Could you let her go over and run the tests while you stay on the phone with her?"If his memory served him well, Mary had always been engaged in the medical field.She had been with the experts to diagnose and treat Rosalie for the past few days. This was enough to see that she has extraordinary medical skills.Rosalie still hesitated. "Mae..."‘My best friend's medical skills are indeed good, but pharmacology is her shortcoming.’She hesitated for a while but could not think of any other way. So, she nodded and agreed. "Alright then. I'll call her now and ask her to go to the research institute."At worst, Mary could just carry out the test procedures. As for the test results, Rosalie would watch them through the video.Rosalie made up her mind and called Mary immediately.The other en
Meanwhile, in the ward.Rosalie was discussing with Old Master Loewe methods to analyze the ingredients of the antidote."A single detection method would not be enough, but the amount of the antidote sample is limited. We must come up with several of the most effective detection methods."Rosalie's body had already become weak. Her voice turned floaty and weak after speaking for so long.Old Master Loewe shared the same worry about this problem.The two discussed it with serious expressions.While they discussed several feasible plans, Mary's call came.Rosalie quickly picked it up."Rosie, I'm here. What do I need to do now?"On the phone, Mary's tone sounded heavy.Rosalie could probably guess that Andrius must have told her about the situation. However, there was no time for consolation. She went straight to the point and explained the plan she discussed with Old Master Loewe.Mary listened carefully and put forward her own opinion where it was unreasonable.The three wo
