Although Estie was reluctant, knowing that Daddy was pursuing Auntie and they would come here often in the future, she obediently got off the sofa. She softly bade goodbye to Rosalie, then left with Byron.Rosalie and the two little boys watched Byron’s car drive away, then they turned back to the villa.The little boys had been up playing for a day. Plus, they had been worrying about the two adults. Now that they had settled down, they started to yawn non-stop.It was getting late, so Rosalie simply tucked the boys into bed. She then went into the study again.As the top medical family in Somerland, the Lancer family had attracted much attention despite being low-profile for many years.With the research institute built this time, it was no longer a secret as soon as it was completed.For this cooperation, the Lancer family did not intend to keep a low profile. They would soon reveal the list of partners to the public.At that time, for ordinary people in Somerland, this list n
Chapter 719 Just Shut Your Mouth
After he hung up the phone, Xander sent a message directly to Hector and informed him that Rosalie had agreed to meet.Without waiting for Hector to reply, he turned off his phone and went to sleep.The next morning, as soon as Hector woke up, he saw the message from Xander.Seeing Rosalie's affirmative answer, the boulder that had been pressing on Hector's heart for a few days finally eased.If he guessed correctly, Byron took action against the Hudson family because his daughter had provoked Rosalie.As long as she got her forgiveness, the Hudson family could also get out of this crisis.Thinking of this, Hector breathed a sigh of relief.At breakfast, seeing that his spoiled bratty daughter was fashionably late again, Hector wanted to lecture her as usual. However, he thought about having to tell her this, so he changed his mind and held his tongue."I’ve made an appointment with the lady you provoked a few days ago through Xander. Find a time and apologize to her face-to-fa
Chapter 720 List Of Partners
Rosalie thought that the list of partners of the Lancer family would not be announced until a few days later.Unexpectedly, as soon as she woke up the next morning, Leon's call came in.Rosalie picked it up in a daze."Have you seen it? The Lancer family has announced the list of partners." As soon as the call was connected, Leon spoke.Hearing this, Rosalie was wide awake. "Why did they release it so suddenly?"She was not ready yet...Leon smiled. "I don't know either, but I heard that there may be a project kick-off press conference in two days. There may be reporters present, and it’s necessary to prepare well for this. Reporters now can be very tricky, and no one knows what questions they’ll ask, especially toward a newcomer like you without much background."Rosalie responded gratefully, "Thank you for reminding me, Leon. I’ll prepare well."On the other end, Leon followed up and said, "Congratulations, Dr. Jacobs. Now, you’ll be making a name for yourself here in Somerla
Chapter 721 Ruin Her Reputation
Stacy also saw the news.When she saw Rosalie's name on the cooperation list, Stacy's face became extremely ugly.Not only was this woman really cooperating with Xander, but her name was even placed so high. This kept Stacy thinking about the distance between Rosalie and Xander that night.‘What right does she have?!’Staring at Rosalie's name on the screen for a long time, a shadow flashed across Stacy's eyes.She wanted everyone to see the true colors of that b*tch!‘She’s nothing but a woman who relies solely on her face. I don’t know what drug she gave Xander, but he actually gave her a ranking on the list.‘That woman thinks she’s all that now!‘Let's wait until I expose her true colors, then I’ll see how she’ll survive in the domestic medical field in the future!‘At that time, even if Xander likes that face of hers, he’ll definitely not be able to be with that woman!’Thinking of the scene where Rosalie was spurned by the crowd, Stacy felt relieved for a while.With
Chapter 722 Does It Feel Stressful?
Meanwhile, Rosalie asked Mary to pick up the two little boys so she could make it to her appointment on time. She spotted Xander’s car the minute she left the house. The man got out of the car the minute he saw her coming out of the house. After looking behind her, he asked in a slightly disappointed voice, “The little guys aren’t home from school yet?” Rosalie nodded. “I asked a friend to go pick them up. Is there a reason you’re looking for them, Young Master Xander?” Xander nodded his head noncommittally. “I prepared gifts for them, but let’s forget it since they aren’t here. I’ll pass the presents to them myself the next time we meet.” Rosalie was surprised when she heard he had really prepared gifts for the little guys. She had not expected Xander to be that thoughtful. “Yes, it would only be appropriate for you to hand the gifts over when you prepared them yourself, Young Master Xander,” Rosalie said once she had regathered her thoughts. She pressed her lips together
Chapter 723 Breaking News
Xander was initially surprised by what Rosalie said but then found her answer reasonable just about a split second later. After all, ever since he had gotten to know Rosalie, he had known she was not a shy person. When that thought appeared in his mind, Xander gave the woman sitting in the backseat an appreciative glance. Rosalie had a neutral expression but a determined look in her eyes. Xander felt his heart flutter when he saw the expression on her face.The traffic was slightly congested, and the two barely made it to the restaurant in time. They had expected Stacy to already be there. However, they did not even catch a glimpse of Stacy when they arrived. Upon seeing the empty table, the two exchanged glances. They both had a feeling that something was off. “I’ll make a call and ask,” Xander said after the two sat down. There was a frown on his face. Rosalie nodded in agreement. She felt slightly uneasy but did not know where this feeling of uneasiness stemmed. “
Chapter 724 Don’t Take It Too Personally
After hanging up the phone, she slowly got up and adjusted her expression before deliberately acting flustered as she headed toward the restaurant.“Sorry for making you guys wait.”Stacy glanced at the two apologetically as she walked in through the door. Upon seeing that she had finally arrived, both Rosalie and Xander heaved an inward sigh of relief as they smiled at her and said, “It’s no big deal. Hurry over and sit down!” Stacy nodded and sat down next to them. When she noticed they had not even taken a single bite of the food, she clicked her tongue and said, “Didn’t I tell you guys to go ahead? Why did you wait for me? I feel so embarrassed now that the food has gone cold.” Rosalie was not close to her and merely smiled without saying anything. Xander replied perfunctorily, “You’re the host, so it’s only right that we wait for you.” An awkward silence fell after he finished speaking. Rosalie gave Xander an awkward glance. She did not know what she should do.If i
Chapter 725 Why Didn’t You Come Pick Us Up?
“What’s wrong?” Xander frowned and asked when he saw the odd look on her face. Rosalie furrowed her brows and waved a hand as she looked at Stacy. She did not know if Stacy had done this on purpose or not. Why did she choose such a strong alcoholic drink when treating guests to dinner? However, she did not feel like anything was off after drinking it. Rosalie could not help but wonder if she was overthinking things.The three had nothing else to discuss after having several drinks. After all, they had only gathered because there were apologies to be made. Stacy was a self-aware person herself and stood to leave after exchanging a few words with them. Xander watched Stacy leave, then turned to the person next to him. “Are you hungry? Want to grab a bite to eat?” The two had not eaten much just now as the food had already gone cold. Rosalie felt her head spinning. She did not know what sort of drink Stacy had given her. She only had a small glass of it, but it had su
