Chapter 369 Don't Let Them Know For Now
As Rosalie had been busy until quite late the previous night, she managed to sleep soundly when she finally went to bed.The following morning, Rosalie was woken up by the ringing of her phone.Her head was still a little fuzzy after having just woken up. After fumbling around on her bedside table for a while, she finally found the source of the sound.Rosalie looked at the caller ID, then answered her phone in a daze.On the other end, Yves' voice was filled with anxiety as he said, "Dr. Jacobs, we have a problem."Rosalie was suddenly wide awake. She shot up from her bed, and her voice was slightly hoarse as she asked, "What happened?""A batch of medicinal materials was supposed to arrive this morning, but it's already way past the scheduled time and the goods are still nowhere in sight." Yves' face was filled with dread.The medicinal material suppliers who partnered with their research institute were usually on time with their deliveries.In the past, if the suppliers said
Chapter 360 Why Wait Until Now?
There were only two of them in the office, so their expressions also became more solemn. “I’m not sure if you still remember what the Fullers did to us the last time.” Yves raised his eyebrows. Hearing this, Rosalie frowned slightly and was reminded of the time when she just arrived in her home country and the experience of being targeted by Wendy. All the medicinal material suppliers in Coast City under the Fullers’ control refused to cooperate with them for no reason. The new batch of medicinal material suppliers this time had always cooperated well with her, but they abruptly halted their supply without a reason. There must be someone behind all this.However, who was it? Rosalie’s expression froze, and her mind was in chaos. They resolved the problem Wendy had posed the last time, so she probably would not use the same tactic to go against them. Yves did not explicitly say it, but he knew that this matter was aimed at Rosalie. Looking at Rosalie’s face of contemp
Chapter 361 Not Worth Mentioning
After getting into contact with some people, the only gain for the two was that they knew the real intentions of those suppliers and that somebody was targeting them.However, the medicinal materials that were needed later for the research still needed to be acquired. In this state of urgency, Rosalie thought of Leon. During the conference at that time, she remembered that Leon said they might develop locally and there was a high chance of him staying in Coast City.With Leon’s reputation in the medical profession and the Martin family’s position in Coast City, they would certainly have a broad network.The thought of this made Rosalie’s heart well up with hope. She said to Yves, “I’m going to call a friend.” After saying this, she took her phone out and called Leon. Just as the call got through, Leon picked up and his elegant voice sounded. “What’s up, Rosalie?” Rosalie hesitated for a few seconds. Come to think of it, it seemed like she was always the one accepting help
Chapter 362 Suddenly Take Action
Almost half an hour had passed when Leon finally called back. Rosalie got on the phone almost as soon as the phone lit up and asked urgently, “How is it, Senior?” Leon’s voice sounded a little dignified. “The conversation was going well but as soon as I mentioned your research institute, the other party’s attitude took a 180-degree turn.” Hearing this, the look in Rosalie’s eyes darkened as the corners of her lips pulled into a bitter arc. “I understand. Sorry for troubling you. You don’t have to get involved in this matter again. I’ll figure out a way myself.” She was afraid that if Leon helped her again, the other party would sense something fishy and target him along with her. After she spoke, she heard Leon ask all of a sudden, “What’s going on between you and President Lawrence? He did this, right?” Rosalie could not help but be stunned. Byron? What reasons did he have to do this? Besides, where did Leon get this conclusion? The thought of that question had Rosal
Chapter 363 It Was Prevarication
Rosalie still remembered that time at the coffee shop. Melody had made it clear that if she got involved with Byron, measures would be taken. After that, she never saw that man anymore. She even thought that after all domestic affairs were arranged, she would take her children along to settle down abroad. Melody’s move at this time was disadvantageous to both of them. Rosalie’s head was in pain. She took out her phone and decided to call Melody to ask her. However, after a few calls, it kept saying it was out of service area. Apparently, she had been blocked. Rosalie turned off the phone in frustration and apologized to Yves who was waiting at the side. “I’m sorry, it’s my personal matters that affected the research institute.” Yves had already guessed that when he heard her conversation with Leon earlier and saw her emotions shift after that. Hearing this, he gently smiled. “Since it has happened, let’s just think of how we can solve this.” Rosalie nodded. Both of
Chapter 364 This Is My Personal Matter
“How did it go? The Quirkes are also calling off the cooperation?” Rosalie frowned and asked. Yves’ expression was awful as he nodded slightly. He had always looked composed, and this was the first time that he looked this awful. Rosalie did not know what was said on the line earlier. She only thought that the manager’s bad attitude was what made Yves look like this. “It’s not worth getting pissed off over it. After all, it’s my responsibility. I’ll think of a way.” She smiled and consoled him as if nothing happened. Yves felt useless for not being able to help Rosalie and the research institute. “Quirke Enterprise is a huge company. Shouldn’t they be trustworthy?” Rosalie was slightly startled. “Back then, so many doctors were helpless about Old Master Quirke’s illness and you were the one who took action in the end so that he could be healed. Besides, they were the ones who said they’d sell us the medicinal materials at half price, but they’re going back on their word
Chapter 365 Kudos To You
The two of them had a brief discussion before Rosalie dialed Andrius Quirke’s number on the phone.It was very quickly answered. “How may I help you, Dr. Jacobs?”They had not been in touch since Old Master Quirke’s birthday celebration, so Andrius was a little confused to receive a phone call from Rosalie out of the blue.Rosalie spoke nonchalantly, “Is Old Master Quirke at home? I wanna go over to give him a quick medical check-up to see how he’s doing.”Andrius was quick to answer. “That’s so kind of you. Grandpa is home. You can come.”After making sure that Old Master Quirke was at home, Rosalie hung up, grabbed her medical kit, and went on her way.As she was just arriving at the Quirke manor, the butler was already standing at the door, waiting.“Miss Jacobs, Young Master Quirke got me to wait here to escort you in when you’ve arrived. He’s waiting for you in the living room.” Seeing that Rosalie had arrived, the butler went up to greet her courteously.Rosalie nodded an
Chapter 366 What Went Wrong?
Rosalie merely smiled in response. She looked up at Andrius, who was standing opposite her, and smiled. “I’ve also come to ask Young Master Quirke a favor.”Andrius was quick to agree. “Go ahead, Dr. Jacobs.”Rosalie was about to reply when Old Master Quirke waved. “Let’s not talk here. Lunch is almost ready. Stay for lunch, Dr. Jacobs. The two of you can talk while you eat.”A tinge of turmoil flashed through Rosalie’s eyes.The purpose of her visit was leaning more toward confronting Andrius rather than asking for a favor.With Old Master Quirke being such a passionate host, Rosalie did not know if she could continue with accusing words.Andrius was quick to agree as well. “You must’ve made quite a journey when you came over, Dr. Jacobs. Stay for lunch, okay?”Right after he was done, he helped Old Master Quirke walk back into the villa.Rosalie had no other choice but to follow behind them. What she had rehearsed in her head was completely discarded.At the dining table, Ro
