“I’ll send Miss Jacobs home.”Xander’s voice came from beside Rosalie.Rosalie was shocked when she heard that and subconsciously wanted to reject. “No, it’s...”She knew Xander was now her friend since she had gotten to know him for some time. However, she did not think she and Xander were close enough for her to let Xander send her home.She turned Leon down because she felt it was inappropriate.However, Rosalie rejected Xander’s offer because she felt they were still unfamiliar with each other.Xander could see the difference when Rosalie rejected both of them. He knew her intention, yet he still felt a little disappointed.“Miss Jacobs, it’s my pleasure to send you back. We’ll be working together, and I’m sure we’ll meet each other often in the future. I want to enhance the relationship between us to have better cooperation.”Xander continued persuading Rosalie as he tried hard to calm his disappointment. “Moreover, I’m heading back to my place, and your house is on the wa
"Stacy, what are you doing?" Xander stood in front of Rosalie with a dark expression.The wasted Stacy was not in a rational state of mind. Now that Xander was protective of Rosalie, the ire in her flared up."Get out of my way, Xander. It's none of your business…" Stacy's voice was still gentle when she confronted him. She even attempted to force herself to smile.His brows knitted together. "Stacy, people are watching, so watch your actions. If you're drunk, you should get home early."With that being said, he raised his eyes to signal her friends to come over and bring her home.They caught on to his sign and approached Stacy gingerly.However, Stacy noticed them the moment they inched closer."Get away from me!" She screamed at the top of her lungs and shot glares at them. She then turned her head to look behind Xander. "Rosalie Jacobs, stop hiding! Why are you cowering there? Are you guilty?"With a frown, Rosalie met her gaze. "Miss Stacy, please come back to your senses.
As she said this, Stacy lunged toward Rosalie before everyone else could react.Due to Xander pushing Stacy earlier, Stacy was standing closer to Rosalie with no one else in between them.When Leon turned to look at the ruckus, Stacy had already lunged forward.“Rosalie, watch out!” Leon only managed to pull Rosalie behind him.On the other side, Xander came over just in time and grabbed Stacy’s arm. “That’s enough from you!”Having missed Rosalie with her lunge and getting reprimanded by Xander, Stacy’s emotions intensified. She started to cry from her grievance. As she cried, she pointed at Rosalie and cursed angrily.As more people came out of the hotel and saw the farce outside, they stopped to watch the show.Rosalie stood behind Leon, still in shock. As she saw the crowd gather, she knew she had to step forward.If she let this brew any longer, who knew what sort of rumors it could cause the next day?Thinking of this, Rosalie took a deep breath to control her emotions a
"President Lawrence, then we..."Someone carefully asked for Byron’s opinion.Byron frowned. Without opening his mouth, he turned around and walked toward the employee walkway mentioned by the manager.He took two steps and suddenly heard a hoarse female voice coming from the door."This b*tch Jacobs! It's all your fault! If it weren’t for you, Xander would never ignore me!"Byron stopped in his tracks.Seeing this, everyone around him hurriedly stopped and looked at him with puzzled expressions.Only Luther knew his young master’s thoughts and immediately said, "Master, I'll go over and take a look." Byron nodded, and his eyes turned dark.With the permission of his boss, Luther strode back to the door of the hotel.Everyone who accompanied Byron waited in place. There was confusion in their hearts.‘Wasn’t President Lawrence disgusted by the commotion at the door? Why is he interested now?’After waiting for a while, Byron saw Luther walk back from the door with a solemn
Shaken by the man’s aura, there was a brief silence in the crowd."That's President Lawrence!"Seeing the man walk past the crowd, someone regained their senses and whispered.Hearing this, the crowd quickly exploded. They could not hold back as they stared at Byron’s back as he walked past them.Although the crowd was made up of people from famous families in Coast City, their status was nothing compared with Byron. These people had no chance to meet Byron in person.Since it was a rare opportunity to catch a glimpse of this person, the crowd might as well stare to their heart's content.What was more, with a face like Byron’s, it was like catching a glimpse of luxury.Rosalie stood in the middle of the crowd, watching the man walk toward her. The expression on her face froze, and she felt as though she was having an out-of-body experience. She did not know how to react at that point and even thought bitterly about how unlucky she was. She only wanted to go out for a work event
"I heard Rosalie mention that she wanted to discuss with Young Master Martin and Young Master Xander about the future cooperation in the evening. I didn't expect the discussion to go on until so late."Byron looked at Martin and Xander on the other side, his tone sounding natural and familiar. There was still some intimacy when he called Rosalie's name.It sounded like Rosalie was his person, and when she came out to talk to them about work this evening, she would only go with his permission.When his voice fell, the expressions of the people present changed.Many people present knew that Byron Lawrence had a marriage contract and also knew that the other party was the young lady of Fuller family.However, Byron's current attitude made them doubt Byron's relationship with that woman.Thinking about Byron's status and the woman's beautiful face, it was not a surprise that there would be a relationship between the two.Everyone just felt that they had swallowed a huge forbidden fr
Stacy's words clearly fell into everyone's ears.The people around were even more ignorant about the medical world, and when they heard Stacy's words, they subconsciously agreed.After all, in the public’s perception, the most powerful doctors were over 50 years old. Young doctors with some qualifications, such as Rosalie, who was so young and beautiful, made it difficult for people to associate her with the medical profession.Stacy's fingers got closer and closer to Rosalie's face, and Rosalie's expression became more and more stressed. She was ready to raise her hand and wave the woman’s hand away.However, before she could make a move, a big hand suddenly stretched out from her side and grabbed Stacy's wrist.That hand obviously exerted strength as Stacy was dragged. She staggered back for two steps, moving away from Rosalie."Whatever medical skills she has, perhaps you can ask Professor Quentin Luke? If not, you can also ask Old Master Quirke and you’ll get the answer."By
Instantaneously, Luther took someone to send Stacy away.It was only after she walked outside the crowd that Stacy realized what had happened. She struggled non-stop but to no avail.After Stacy left, Byron glanced coldly at the people around.When they met his gaze, everyone felt tense and did not dare to stay any longer, so they all quickly left.For a while, only Rosalie and others were left at the entrance of the hotel."Thank you for helping me out, President Lawrence."Rosalie lowered her eyes and forced herself to calmly thank Byron. She picked up her feet to go near Leon, trying to keep a distance from Byron.Unexpectedly, as soon as she took a step, the man got hold of her wrist.Rosalie paused slightly, subconsciously wanting to shake him off. However, she was scared to look back and stood stiffly in place."Ms. Jacobs, your thanks are always so insincere," Byron said inexplicably.After speaking, he raised his eyes and glanced lightly at Xander and Leon not far awa
