Chapter 26 She Can’t Wait Any Longer
“Increase by two points?”Yves was stunned. “President Fuller, did we not already settle this before? Why do you wish to increase the price suddenly now that we’re about to sign the partnership?”Seeing his surprised appearance, Wendy crossed her legs comfortably and said in a leisurely voice, "Indeed, we had agreed prior, but the prices in the medicinal materials market have overall gone up this year. If we signed the contract with you with the originally agreed-upon price, we will lose too much. I hope Dr. Graham understands."This was said in a sanctimonious manner.Yves’s expression froze slightly. He wanted to say something, but Rosalie stopped him."I think Miss Fuller had a sudden urge to raise the prices because she saw me. I know the prices in the medicinal materials market like the back of my hand. If you want to raise prices, we can discuss it but it's unreasonable to raise it by two points at this time."Rosalie wanted to be professional but the other obviously wanted
Chapter 27 Being Plotted Against
Hearing that, Byron put down the work in his hands. Recalling the night before, the view of the backs of Rosalie leaving together with the stranger of a man, his gaze sunk slightly. “Who is he?”“The man is Yves Graham; he is the person in charge of Virus Research Institute. The old master of the Quirkes had gone to him for medical consultation before.”Luther noticed the atmosphere in the office had decreased and his tone became a little more careful, “Also, I found that Yves is currently single, it’s likely that…there is nothing special between him and Miss Jacobs. That said, Miss Jacobs also studied medicine in college, the two might have met in school but that is uncertain.”Hearing this possibility, Byron’s expression became less severe. “Is there anything else you found apart from this?”Luther looked somewhat awkwardly. “We only found this at present. On Miss Jacobs’ side, we only know that she had just returned to the country. As for her stint overseas and its traces, we ar
Chapter 28 The Only Chance
Knowing that they were being plotted against plus that several of the institutes were still on hold.Rosalie could not help feeling a little agitated.She did not expect that after six years, Wendy's hostility to her was so great that she would shamelessly use such means!Now was not the time to vent, however.Rosalie pinched her palm, calming himself down. Looking up, she said to Yves, "It doesn’t matter. If Coast City doesn’t work. We'll contact medicinal material suppliers in other cities. We will definitely find someone who is willing to sign with us."However, the cost and time would be correspondingly higher.Although Rosalie did not say anything, she was aware of it internally.She also hoped to find a suitable partner in the local area, but there really was no way."No... we might not have to go to other cities."Yves had suddenly thought of something and his tone relaxed.Hearing that, Rosalie raised a brow. "Do you think there are other medicinal material suppliers
Chapter 29 Meeting Byron Again
Old Master Quirke’s illness was a little complicated, which was why those famous doctors had been powerless.Yves took a while just telling her about Old Master Quirke’s illness.At six o'clock in the evening after work, Rosalie went to the Quirke family mansion alone based on the address Yves had given her.A middle-aged man who looked like the housekeeper had opened the door.When he saw Rosalie, he asked very politely, "Hello, may I inquire as to who you are?"Rosalie smiled, "Hello, I'm the doctor who is here to look at Old Master Quirke. I called this afternoon."Hearing that, the housekeeper scrutinized her from top to bottom. Seeing that she was young, he could not help feeling suspicious.With how young she was, could she actually do it?However, he did not show it on his face. After two seconds, he said, "Since you’re a doctor, please come in with me."With that, he turned to lead Rosalie.Rosalie noted that the other did not trust her, but she did not take it to hea
Chapter 30 Questioning Her Ability
Soon, the group was in front of Rosalie.Cradled in her daddy’s arms, Estie looked at the beautiful lady longingly, there was a rare joy in her expression.Faced with the father and daughter’s differing gazes, she was at a loss of how to react for a moment. Fortunately, the man in front broke the silence. "Are you the doctor Dr. Graham recommended to look over our Old Master?"Rosalie adjusted her expression and said with a smile, "That's me. Hello, my name is Rosalie Jacobs.""Dr. Jacobs."The man reached out to her. "My name is Andrius Quirke. This is my sister. Her name is Andrea Quirke."With that, he looked at Byron who was behind them. "This is…our brother, I suppose. He is a Lawrence."Rosalie forced herself to nod calmly and said hello to them, "Mr. Quirke, Miss Quirke... President Lawrence."At that, there was a clear hum of laughter in a man’s voice/ Listening to it, it sounded sarcastic.Rosalie lowered his eyes and hid the strange emotion under his eyes.Meanwhi
Chapter 31 Deliberately Targeted Her
Everyone present could not help but be stunned for a bit.Seeing her resume intercepted by that large hand, Rosalie felt even more nervous.She had deliberately been avoiding Byron the moment she saw him. She did not even dare look at him through the periphery of her vision.Now, the man had suddenly reached his hand out and taken away her resume. She had to pay attention to him.She wondered just what he was thinking…Byron grabbed the resume in his big hand tightly. He glanced over Rosalie's face and said pointedly, "There are quite a number of people faking resumes to swindle others nowadays. Old Man Quirke’s condition is already bleak, so we can’t be cheated by these people."With that, he casually flipped open the resume in his hand. His speed of browsing was really slow as if he was trying to distinguish what was real and what was not in the resume.From the school that Rosalie had attended to the place where she worked, his eyes caught every detail.Rosalie's life over t
Chapter 32 Left With His Final Breath
Andrius was a little moved seeing how adamant she was, but he still turned to look at Byron’s expression.Byron just watched the serious woman coldly without saying a word.Seeing this, Andrius nodded to Rosalie. "Thank you for your help, then, Dr. Jacobs. Please come with me."Rosalie breathed a sigh of relief. She got up and followed Andrius, trying her best to ignore Byron’s gaze when she passed him.Seeing that her brother was actually bringing the young woman up, Andrea still felt uneasy and hurriedly followed.The three figures disappeared at the corner of the stairs.Seeing that the beautiful aunt had left, Estie tugged at her daddy's collar reluctantly, wanting to make him follow.Byron retracted his gaze from the corner of the stairs and looked down at the little girl in his arms. The corner of his lips tugged vaguely as he began moving his feet to walk upstairs.Reaching the door of the room, a man suddenly appeared in Rosalie’s periphery. Her heart constricted violen
Chapter 33 Wendy Fuller Has Their Backs
Hearing Rosalie’s words, Andrius and his sister’s expressions instantly changed.“What nonsense are you saying?”Andrea glared at Rosalie angrily. "Can you treat him? If you can’t, just say so! Don't curse my grandpa here!"Rosalie looked at her coldly. "I'm already being very courteous. Because your grandfather didn't get treatment in time, all his bodily functions have begun to deteriorate now. His immune system has also rapidly weakened.“It’s reasonable to say that the patient should have been taken care of promptly, but the medical team you invited disregarded the patient's physical condition and wantonly gave him drugs. You’re not treating his condition at all, you’re burning his lifespan!”The chief attending doctor of the medical team felt unhappy at that moment. He came forward and stood next to them. Looking at Rosalie, he had some righteous words to offer. "Miss, please refrain from making rash judgments if you don't understand the situation. Old Master Quirke’s conditi
