However…Ever since he found out that Rosalie was Byron's ex-wife who had left without saying goodbye, Andrius had always had a guess in his heart. He could not help but voice it out now."What's Dr. Jacobs’ relationship with Estelle? I’ve never seen Estelle this dependent on anyone."Although he was not clear about it, Byron guessed what he meant with his words and responded lightly, "Estelle is her daughter."While he had guessed it long ago, it still took Adrius quite a while to come back to his senses after personally hearing this answer.The time Rosalie left, Estie’s age, and her inexplicable dependence on Rosalie had given him the thought that Estie might be Rosalie's daughter.However, from the few times he had seen Rosalie getting along with Estie, Dr. Jacobs seemed to only be treating the little girl like a child she was acquainted with. Hence, Andrius did not dare to think much of it.Hearing Byron admitting it now, he felt even more confused.Did Dr. Jacobs not know
The next morning, Rosalie was at the research institute having a headache about the issue of business partners.She had practically contacted everyone who could be contacted in the country these few days but still did not obtain any results.There were many of them who did not have any contacts in Coast City. Even if they did, they could not possibly go up against the Lawrences for her.After three days, Rosalie was really at a loss for what to do.Just when she was helpless, there was a knock on her office door.Yves entered with Andrius."Dr. Jacobs, President Quirke is here," Yves greeted her.Hearing this, Rosalie looked up with surprise. Seeing the person behind Yves, she could not respond for a moment.The medicinal materials from the Quirkes had already been delivered. Why would Andrius still come over?"Dr. Jacobs." Andrius smiled at her and looked around her office.He wanted to take the opportunity to see if there were any photos of her children’s father, but he onl
Andrius saw through Rosalie's concerns and knew what she was worried about. He tried putting it another way. "The friendship between the Quirkes and Lawrences won’t be severed because of this. I also wouldn’t risk Quirke Enterprise. Of course, I’ve already made all the preparations when I came over looking for you to raise this matter today.”Rosalie looked at his adamant expression, and the hesitation on her face gradually faded. However, she still could not help but ask, "But why do you want to help me like this? Is it just because I cured the old master’s disease?"Andrius recalled his conversation with Byron last night and looked at Rosalie meaningfully.Met with his gaze, Rosalie found it a little weird.Andrius began slowly after a moment, "My grandfather was bedridden for so many years, and it’s all due to your treatment that he’s able to recover to how he is now. Moreover, you also said when you took over my grandfather’s treatment that his life was already on the line. You
Rosalie was, of course, not just being polite when she said she wanted to treat Andrius to a meal.That night, she reserved a restaurant before sending Andrius a message saying that they would meet during the weekend.Andrius agreed before forwarding the message to Byron. [Byron, let's go together?]Rosalie was treating him to this meal to thank him, and Byron had also made a large contribution to this matter. He should go with him.On the other end, Byron frowned when he saw the message Andrius sent. He was a little hesitant.Who knew if the woman would run off if he were to appear?Just when he was hesitating, Andrius sent another message again. [Dr. Jacobs is treating me to a meal to thank me. Although she doesn't know, you also made contributions. It's only right for you to be treated as well.]Reading his message, Byron’s gaze sunk slightly. He raised his hand and tapped the screen a few times.Andrius waited for a long time before he got his reply.[Then, let’s go togeth
After saying that, Rosalie ignored both their reactions and she sat down directly opposite Andrius.Seeing her sit opposite him, Andrius glanced at the person beside him subconsciously. He noted that Byron was still standing, so he hurriedly said, "Byron, since Dr. Jacobs doesn't mind, just sit down for a while. It just so happens that there’s been an issue at Dr. Jacobs' research institute. Maybe you can help!"Byron frowned and sat back down in silence.It had not been easy to reach a point where the woman did not run away the moment she saw him. Naturally, he would not just leave.After Rosalie extended a polite invitation, she then acted as though Byron did not exist. After all the dishes were served, she raised a glass to Andrius. "Thank you for your help with the medicinal materials businesses, Young Master Quirke."Making nothing of it, Andrius smiled. He raised his glass and clinked it with hers before answering knowingly but also not, "Dr. Jacobs’ you’re too kind. In fact
Andrius clearly saw the two of them locking gazes and very sensibly did not say anything.He waited until they withdrew their gazes before looking at Rosalie with a smile. "The few medicinal material businesses that I contacted have only just set up their branches in Coast City, but they can ensure the medicinal materials supply for your research institute. I wonder if you mind this?"Rosalie put her thoughts away, and the smile on her face was spot on. "Since you were the one who introduced them, I believe they’re capable. Also, we’re just a small research institute. We don't need too many medicinal materials. Branch offices are enough for us."Andrius raised his brow slightly. "It's a small research institute now, but with you here, who knows how it’ll develop in the future?"Rosalie pursed her lips and smiled. She did not answer that and just said, "As for confirming the partnership proposals, I wonder what are the medicinal material businesses’ plans?"She just wanted to solve
Rosalie felt distressed for a moment hearing him talk about Estie's condition, but she could not show it in front of Byron.Just when she wanted to pretend that she did not care, Andrius suddenly shifted the topic to her. "Dr. Jacobs, I remember Estelle seemed to like you very much when you came to treat my grandfather before. I wonder if Estelle will get better if she were to interact with you a bit more?"After saying that, he sighed casually. "It was the first time I saw Estelle take such a liking to someone else. I was shocked at the time."Rosalie gripped her cutlery tightly, not knowing how to tell him that she was the reason why Estelle had become like this.To the side, Byron just went along with it as he looked at her with a heavy gaze.In the past, the woman would always compromise as long as he mentioned Estie in front of her. This time, however, the woman had obviously hardened her heart.There was silence at the dining table for a moment. Rosalie could clearly feel
Andrius spent a good portion of his might before he managed to lift the unpleasant atmosphere that he caused just now before discussing with Rosalie about the pharmaceutical industry in Coast City at the present day.Rosalie also conversed with him patiently.Byron, who was beside him, did not speak again. He just drank his wine without saying a word.Seeing that they had finished most of the wine in the bottle, Andrius hurriedly ended the dinner. "It's getting late. Let's just end things here today. I'll have the medicinal materials businesses decide the time as soon as possible."Rosalie did not want to stay any longer either, so she unequivocally agreed.The three of them went downstairs side by side. Rosalie was about to pay the tab but was stopped by Andrius."I was just kidding the last time. How can I allow you to treat me? If my grandfather finds out about this, he’ll lecture me again.”Saying that, Andrius quickly went over to settle the bill. He then turned around and
