Seeing Rosalie leave just like that, Byron's eyes darkened, but he stood up as if nothing had happened. "Old Master Quirke, I suddenly remember that there’s still some unfinished business at the company. I’m at ease now that I know you’re recovering well. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be taking my leave."Old Master Quirke frowned slightly. Did Byron not just tell him that he was free for these two days? Why did he suddenly have work to do?However, when he thought about how Byron was carrying the burden of the entire Lawrence family on his shoulders, it was somewhat understandable."I was going to ask you to stay for a meal, but since you have matters to attend to, I won't keep you any longer. The company is important, so go quickly." Old Master Quirke then urged earnestly, saying, "Remember to rest and don't overwork yourself. "Byron promised to do so, then got up and left.Seeing his friend's attitude, Andrius quickly got up and followed after him. "I'll send you off!"The tw
Byron ignored her question and just stared at her coldly. "How far has your relationship with him developed?"Upon hearing the question, Rosalie frowned sharply. She lowered her voice to a mutter. "Byron, you’d better stop your nonsense. There’s nothing between me and Leon. Even if there is, what does it have to do with you? What right do you have to ask me about my private affairs?"Byron tightened his grip, trying his best to suppress his anger.The tension in the air between them was so thick that one could slice through it with a knife. Just looking at this obstinate man in front of her made Rosalie feel a wave of exhaustion wash over her body."President Lawrence, please know your place." After a long pause, Rosalie lowered her gaze and coldly said, "I'm leaving, so would you be so kind as to let go of my arm?"The grip on her wrist slackened.Rosalie swiftly withdrew her hand, then looked up at the person before her. "I’m seriously just friends with Leon, so please don't
Hearing what Andrea said, Andrius glanced at the old master subconsciously. The old master’s face was filled with suspicion. Earlier, they had a good talk. Byron said something came up at the office and left in a hurry. Why did Andrea say he was angry?Looking at his granddaughter, it seemed like Byron was furious. Was it because of what happened at the office? However, Andrius knew what was going on. He knew that his buddy must have gotten into an argument with Rosalie again. Every time he painstakingly created an opportunity for them, these two almost always ended up fighting. He did not know if they were sick of this, but Andrius was. When Andrea saw Grandpa and her brother’s expressions, she was perplexed. She thought that a conflict had come up between them and Byron, but from what she saw now, Byron’s anger seemed to have nothing to do with them. Why was that so? Even when she mentioned Wendy, Byron was dismissive. …As she was leaving the Quirke family’s ho
The office was empty, and Rosalie was the only one there. Rosalie turned on the computer and thought of continuing her understanding of congenital diseases in children. However, nothing was entering her mind. The reason why she chose to return to the research institute was to let herself forget about Byron’s tone of speech and attitude through working. However, she did not expect everyone to value her participation in the free clinic this time so much.Now that she was sitting in the office all alone, Rosalie only had mixed feelings.Even after reading materials for a long time, the contents that she absorbed were very little. Just when she felt fretful, the phone on the table rang. Rosalie took a hold of the phone and glanced at it. When she saw the incoming call, she felt a faint headache. After hesitating for a while, she answered it at last. “Rosalie, how’s the preparation going?”As soon as she answered the call, Leon’s voice echoed through. Rosalie suppressed her
The night before the free clinic, Rosalie could not help but feel a little nervous. After having her dinner, she went into the study early to review the materials that she had prepared in the past few days. A while into it, there was a knock on the door. Rosalie retrieved her gaze from the computer screen and raised her voice to answer. “Come in.” After she spoke, she saw the two little guys push open the study door. They came in with a smile. Lucian was holding a cup of tea in his hands, while Nox was holding a slice of cake. “Thanks, sweethearts.” Seeing the little guys placing the things beside her hands, Rosalie smiled as she caressed their heads. The little guys smiled like angels and stretched their heads to see the information on Rosalie’s computer at the same time.When they were abroad, it could be said that they had grown up in the research institute. As they were in such an environment for a long time, they had some knowledge of this information. They knew wha
After saying goodbye to the little guys, Rosalie started driving to the location of the Lancer family’s free clinic.The free clinic was set to start at 10 o’clock in the morning. Rosalie was afraid she would run late and already started her journey from home at eight o’clock. After returning to Coast City, she almost always stayed in the city and was unfamiliar with the road conditions. Although the navigation was on, she still ended up taking many detours. When she reached the entrance of the orphanage, there were already many cars parked in front of it. From the looks of it, it seemed like she was a little late. Rosalie frowned in annoyance and grabbed ahold of the recommendation letter. She rushed down from the car and quickly walked toward the entrance. There was a line at the front. They were all doctors from all over the world who had a recommendation letter to participate in the free clinic. They were generally close to being middle-aged. When it was Rosalie’s turn
At the door of the dean’s office upstairs, Leon had just come out. He saw Rosalie heading in and smiled as he greeted her, “Just arrived?” Rosalie nodded. The thought of the mishap earlier felt funny to her, but there was no time to tell him about it. “Young Master Xander is waiting inside. You should head in quickly. There weren’t many people introduced to the family this year. It might be only the two of us,” Leon added again. Rosalie was a little confused. She had no idea what this had to do with being introduced to the Lancer family. Without waiting for her to ask, the worker already knocked on the door. Rosalie could only fix her expression and follow behind to enter. Upon entering, she saw a thin young man. Perhaps because of his thinness, the man’s already deep facial features looked sharper.“Young Master Xander, this is Dr. Jacobs whom the Quirke family recommended,” the worker said in a low voice. The man raised his gaze and looked at Rosalie. As she looked in
When Old Master Quirke was bedridden, the Lancer family had also regularly sent many doctors over to improve his health, but since Old Master Quirke was too weak, they did not dare to use methods that were too aggressive.From what they had heard from Old Master Quirke, this woman went all out, even stepping into dangerous waters while trying her methods. She then successfully cured Old Master Quirke.After listening to Rosalie’s analysis, Xander could not help but ask, “At that time, with Old Master Quirke’s health being at the state that it was, on what basis did you decide to use such a method?”Rosalie was slightly stunned. She remembered how she was just pushing her luck when she decided to go all out, but if she were to say that to Xander, he might not believe her since the approach she took was far too risky.Thinking about that, Rosalie hesitated for a while before she explained, “I read it somewhere in a book previously. It was pure luck that Old Master Quirke had a simila
