Front door of Lawrence Manor.Rosalie's car slowly stopped.Rosalie turned off the engine, hesitated for a moment whether to call Byron.After all, this late-night visit, even just to check on his health, was fairly sudden.With this in mind, Rosalie reached for her phone, but her gaze suddenly swept to the door of the manor.There were two people standing at the door.Rosalie stopped and squinted her eyes towards the door of the villa.Under the cover of the trees, Byron and Wendy could be vaguely seen standing there.Wendy seemed to be holding a coat in her hand. After a while, Byron turned around, smiled at her, and took the coat from her.From a distance, the atmosphere between them looked harmonious.Although it was hard to determine from this distance, Rosalie felt that Byron's smile seemed extra dazzling.‘He kept saying that he wanted to be with me, but he never smiled at me like that…’Rosalie felt a burst of irony in his heart as she remembered what Byron once sai
Back to the villa.The little boys were still concerned about their Mommy, but Rosalie headed straight to the study room and did not give them a chance to speak.The boys felt lost and worried as they looked at her from her back.They felt that something must have happened at the door of Daddy's house just now.…Rosalie closed the study room door and sat down behind the desk with a complicated emotion.She did not have work to do, it was just a temporary excuse.An odd feeling rose in Rosalie’s heart as she thought of Byron standing close with Wendy.‘What the hell is wrong with me?’‘I know clearly that Byron is just using me as a tool for business competition, and his previous pursuits were nothing but talk.’‘But, why does seeing Byron standing with other women, made my heart go through such huge turmoil…’Rosalie had no idea how to deal with herself like this.Suddenly, the phone rang and broke her thoughts.With great effort, Rosalie came back to her senses and looke
"Why haven't you slept yet?"Rosalie was stunned for a moment and looked at the two little ones beside her in confusion.Lucian and Nox looked at each other and spoke in their impish voices. "We feel that you seem to be in a bad mood, Mommy."Hearing this, Rosalie's thoughts that she hardly suppressed came crashing uncontrollably."Mommy, what happened at the door of Uncle Byron's house just now?"Lucian stared at her intensely, as if he knew exactly what happened just now.But in fact, the little boy did not see anything at all.She patted the little one's head casually. "Oh, nothing at all, Mommy suddenly remembered that i have leftover work to do."The boys persevered. "Then let's go see Uncle tomorrow?"Rosalie’s expression stiffened for a moment.The two little ones stared at her eagerly, trying to see anything strange on her face.After a long while, Rosalie found her voice again, and smiled reluctantly at them."Mommy still has very important work to do tomorrow. More
One sleepless night.The next morning, Rosalie got up early and thought about going to the research institute early.According to the time they agreed, Xander will deliver the medicinal materials this morning.‘I must not keep Xander waiting.’Even though Rosalie was sleepy, she simply freshened up and went downstairs.Downstairs, the two little boys were already sitting at the dining table.Their eyes were full of concern as they watched their Mommy come downstairs.Rosalie took a seat beside the little ones, and as usual, kissed them on the face.When she looked up, she found that the little ones seemed to have faint dark circles under their eyes.Seeing this, Rosalie frowned. "You boys didn’t sleep well last night?" The little guys nodded with a guilty conscience.Nox said sheepishly. "I had a nightmare, and brother didn't sleep well because I woke him from tossing and turning around."Rosalie's mind was still in a mess. She did not think much about this obvious nonsens
After Rosalie got the consent of the little boys, she got up and walked to the garage.Although Xander came to her, she did not intend to ride in his car.She did not want the little ones to misunderstand.On the other side, Xander watched her drive the car out of the garage. He said nothing, just smiled, started his car as well, and led the way.The two went straight to the research institute, arriving one after the other.Lancer Corporation staff had already delivered the medicinal materials to the research institute. They were carrying the packages at the door, while Yves oversaw reception.His eyes darkened as he saw the two cars arrive at the entrance of the research institute, one after the other."Thanks for your hard work, Dr. Graham." Xander took the lead to get out of the car and walked towards the side. He greeted Yves vaguely.Yves put his thoughts away and pursed his lips casually. "Young Master Xander and Dr. Jacobs, you came together?"The route from Lancer Co
Yves' expression changed when he heard this, and his eyes fell on Rosalie.‘She is taking Xander to dinner?’‘When did this happen?’‘How did I not know about this?’‘Or, were they privately in contact again?’Yves’ mind was bombarded with all these thoughts, he could not help but ask what was in his heart. "Really? When did this happen?"Rosalie said, "Yesterday, Young Master Xander told me about medicinal material, so I suggested it.”Then she looked back at Xander again. "Young Master Xander, you’ve helped our research institute mend such a huge gap. I should invite you to dinner, but it's just a meal, which is insignificant compared to our relationship."Her words meant to reject what Xander had said, that she used this meal to replace their relationship.Xander was nonchalant about it. He just glanced at Yves who was beside him, and asked Rosalie playfully."Then how are you going to repay me for this favor, Miss Jacobs?"Yves felt those eyes swept past him, along with
For a long while, nobody spoke.After the meals were served, the three of them started to eat separately.Yves looked at the two people beside him, something strange flashed across his eyes."Speaking of which, about the mastermind behind the last fire, I think we may need Young Master Xander's help."Hearing this, Rosalie and Xander were both stunned.Xander even stopped mid-mouthful and raised his eyebrows to look at Yves. "Oh. why do you say so?"Yves said, "The employee that was bribed had something happen at home. This was an internal matter that is only known within the research institute. However, that person was able to pinpoint that employee precisely, and targeted his weakness, which shows that the mastermind has thoroughly investigated our research institute."His statement was much more rigorous than the last. "Or, this person had investigated every employee in the institute, and finally selected that person to do the deed."This was the first time Rosalie heard thi
”What’s wrong?” The two of them were the consummate gentlemen as they prepared to wait for Rosalie to leave before going off. However, they did not see any movement from her car even after waiting a while, so they went over to have a look. Appearing somewhat helpless, Rosalie said, “The car’s not working.” It was likely that the car had not been fixed thoroughly after it was hit the last time. Upon hearing this, Xander and Yves looked at each other.Xander said, “Let me take a look for you.” With that, he climbed into the car to examine it. He had always had a deep interest in cars and thought the current issue was merely due to Rosalie not knowing much about cars. Just as he was about to get started, he heard Rosalie say, “This car was hit a while ago, so it might not have been repaired properly. I’ll get it inspected and repaired another day.” Hearing that, Xander stopped what he was doing. Since she knew the reason, it must not be a matter of human error anymore
