Chapter 222 How Rude They Were Just Now
The conference officially started in the afternoon.Rosalie and Leon arrived nearly half an hour earlier.Seeing the people who were coming in one after another, Rosalie could not help but feel a little cautious.As Leon had said, the attending individuals were some of the leading figures in the medical field. Although she had never seen them in real life, she had seen their photos in many medical-related media.Leon brought her over to greet them."Is this Dr. R. Jacobs?" Learning that she was Dr. R. Jacobs, one of the seniors had a suspicious look on his face. "You're so young, and you’re a woman too?"Rosalie had always been a mystery internationally. The public only knew that Dr. R. Jacobs was Quentin Luke's student, but they did expect them to be such a young woman.Seeing Rosalie's appearance now, they could not help but question her.Rosalie noticed the senior’s doubt. She had gotten used to this kind of look over the years. She smiled, not paying any mind to it. She gre
Chapter 223 Do You Know That Man?
Coast City. Recalling the none-too-pleasant conversation between the two of them yesterday morningByron deliberately went much earlier when he went to send Estie in the morning.The parents at the gate of the kindergarten were far and few between.However, he did not see the woman’s figure. Estie obviously also wanted to see the beautiful aunt. She held onto Byron’s hand and refused to enter the kindergarten even after a long time.Byron frowned. Seeing the little girl hold out, he had to go with her and wait with her at the gate of the kindergarten.After waiting a long time, they finally saw Lucian and Nox, but it was not Rosalie who sent them.Seeing the person who came, Byron’s brows knitted slightly. He led Estie forward. "Where's Miss Jacobs? Isn't she the one who always sends Lucian and Nox to school in the morning?"Lisa had not seen Byron even once ever since they separated at the hospital the last time, so she was not aware of the fight between him and Rosalie. She
Chapter 224 Except What?
Byron saw Luther waiting at the door of the office the moment he went up after arriving at the company."Sir." Luther stepped up quickly when he saw Byron arrive.Byron frowned. "What's the matter?"Luther's expression was solemn. "A problem occurred with operations in North City and an executive needs to be sent there. Who do you think should be sent over?""North City?" Byron's eyes darkened. Thinking of the woman in North City now, he replied coldly, "I'll head there myself."Hearing this, Luther could not help but be stunned. "Your schedule today..."The problem in North City was not so serious that his master needed to personally head over. Moreover, he had other arrangements today.Byron interrupted him, "Buy the earliest ticket and postpone my schedule today."With that, he turned and entered the elevator.Luther quickly affirmed and arranged Byron's original schedule with utmost haste. After buying the tickets, he caught up to him.It was mid-noon when both of them ar
Chapter 225 I Appreciate Your Kindness
Rosalie and Leon attended the dinner held by the organizer as promised the evening of the same day.The venue was a high-end restaurant called Deep Sea near the hotel where the conference was held that afternoon.The organizer had reserved a private room in advance. When both of them entered, the waiter led them upstairs into a private room in the corner.The style of each private room in this restaurant was different. The organizers might have specially arranged an antique-style private room with a strong academic atmosphere for them after considering they were all academics. The moment they entered, they saw a round, mahogany table with a red plum plant in the middle. Beside the table were chairs made out of the same mahogany wood, and there were many calligraphy works and paintings hanging about. Just one look and it was like they had entered someone's study.There were already many guests sitting inside when they arrived. Seeing them come in, everyone's gazes fell onto them
Chapter 226 As If It's That Easy
For a while, the gazes of everyone at the table were brimming with even more admiration as they looked at Rosalie. They wished that could snatch her up as their student.It was just that after seeing her refuse even Senior Lewis, they did not have the nerve to bring it up again.Senior Lewis quickly diverted the conversation topic, but it never left medicine.Due to Rosalie's performance that afternoon, everyone would look to her first whenever Senior Lewis raised new questions.Rosalie felt as if she was participating in another conference.Fortunately, this atmosphere did not last long. Senior Lewis soon realized that the atmosphere was getting a little serious and led everyone to a more relaxed topic.As the juniors, Rosalie and Leon became the object of banter.There were some seniors who persuaded them to drink. Rosalie could not refuse, so she accepted the toasts one by one.After drinking a few cups of wine, she noticed that those seniors were still not done, so she excu
Chapter 227 Quite Attractive
"God damn it, who dares spoil my fun?!" Dr. Cain clutched his waist that was hurting from the kick and climbed to his feet with embarrassment. Before he could take a good look at the person in front of him, another fierce kick landed on his abdomen. That person had kicked him viciously. It hurt so much that Dr. Cain felt himself break out in a cold sweat. He was bowed over for a long time, not saying anything. Rosalie looked at the man in front of her that exuded a coldness from his entire body and could not help but be stunned. Internally, she was inexplicably calm. "Watch your hand. If you don't want it, I don't mind removing it for you." Byron was dressed in an expressive custom suit, his combed back hair revealing his sharp features. His lips were pressed into a line as his eyes and brows were filled with cruelty.It took quite a bit before Dr. Cain calmed down. He looked up, saw the man's face, and knew he was not just all talk. Dr. Cain’s face was instantly paled with
Chapter 228 It's But An Excuse
"I didn't ask you to help me."Rosalie said calmly after a while. Her tone was the same distant one.Byron's brows furrowed slightly as displeasure filled the corners of his eyes and brows. "Is that so? What would you have done if I hadn't interfered just now?" Rosalie dropped her gaze. "I'm a doctor. I would have naturally found a way."After studying acupuncture and moxibustion for so many years, Rosalie knew what acupoints could instantly rid a person’s ability to attack yet not kill them.If the man had gotten any closer, she would not have minded letting him know what the difference was between them as doctors.However, Byron had appeared before she showed her hand. Byron understood what she was saying. He had watched Rosalie from the side when she gave Old Master Quirke acupuncture before and knew the woman was well-versed in the understanding of human acupoints.Considering this, she did have the ability to protect herself just now.Thinking of this, Byron internall
Chapter 229 They Suit Each Other So Much
Rosalie lowered her gaze and adjusted her expression. After suppressing her anger from before, she looked up, and said, "I don't know what I can do to compensate you. When I was out strolling in the afternoon, I found a coffee shop that was rather good. How about I invite you to have a cup of coffee there?"Byron was noncommittal. "That’s fine."With that, he slowly let go of the woman's wrist.As he was leaving, his fingers accidentally touched the tender flesh on the inner side of the woman's wrist. Byron’s eyes darkened slightly. After letting go of her hand, he unconsciously clenched his fingers.The coffee shop Rosalie mentioned was downstairs of the hotel. She and Leon came across it by chance when they got lost in the afternoon.She invited Byron there not because she really thought that the coffee shop was special. It was just because she could only think of this place.The two entered the coffee shop side by side. A waitress quickly greeted them, "Do you have a reservati
