The kid finally waited until Mummy woke up and cried uncontrollably."Mommy, you're finally awake… We were so scared..."Even Lucian, with tears on his face, was sobbing silently.Rosalie had just woken up. She was weak, and her heart was aching. She comforted them softly, "I'm sorry for scaring you, but thanks to you, I’m awake now."The little ones’ cries subsided.Nox choked up and asked her, "Did you hear us just now?"Rosalie pursed her lips and smiled. "I heard two crybabies almost crying. I was afraid that you would cry, so I quickly woke up. But you still cried anyway."In reality, she was half-awake earlier, but her physical strength was not enough to wake her up completely.She fought hard and woke up from the coma when she heard Nox and Estie’s voices.She found them in tears as soon as she opened her eyes.Rosalie's heart was full of guilt. "I'm sorry, it's all my fault for being too careless and making you worry like this."If she had been careful, she would not
"Um, where’s Byron?"Rosalie's first instinct was to look around the ward for Byron as soon as she woke up.However, she became a little worried when she looked around and did not find him.She even began to doubt whether she had really developed an antidote.‘Did Byron go to find Xander…’This possibility made Rosalie uneasy.Everyone in the ward looked at each other in blank dismay at the mention of Byron's whereabouts.Rosalie's heart sank in an instant. She looked at her best friend and asked, "What's going on? Is he going to..."Mary knew before she even finished and quickly explained, "No, he didn't go to look for Xander. Don’t worry."Rosalie looked doubtful.Mary had no choice but to say, "He did plan to go, but we developed the antidote in time, so he dismissed the idea. He fed you the medicine himself!"Rosalie was still puzzled. "Where is he now?""He went out after feeding you the antidote. He even made sure that the antidote was effective before he left, but we
Andrius was smiling. "She’s awake already. She’s even asking for you earlier."Byron frowned slightly. "Did you tell her?"Andrius shook his head quickly. "Not yet, I said something came up and you have to go back to the company."Byron nodded but did not answer."Are you going to see Sister-in-law now?" Andrius asked him.Byron frowned slightly; hesitation flashed across his eyes. After a while, he refused. "Perhaps later. As long as I know she's fine."Then, he narrowed his eyes dangerously. His tone turned cold. "I want that lowlife Xander to first pay for hurting her!" Despite growing up with him, Andrius was still startled to see Byron like this. Secretly, he was glad that he did not have to fight against Byron.‘Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't even know how I died…’At the same time, the assistant sent Xander to the hospital.After a calm journey all the way, Xander finally regained consciousness."Where is this?"Xander's face darkened as he looked at the name of the
"Mr. Lancer, what should we do now?"The assistant was already deathly terrified. He realized early on that this was Byron's means of revenge against Lancer Corporation.Xander was also flustered. That question riled him up again.After he blew up at the assistant, he panted and said, "Notify the old man immediately. The old man is the backbone of the Lancer family. With the old man coming forward, maybe the situation would not be so ugly."The assistant agreed.Xander said again, "Also, we must transfer the company's funds as soon as possible. Hurry up and retain as many funds as possible!"He had a hunch that Byron’s retributions were not that simple!The assistant agreed. "I'll do it now!"With that, he turned to leave.The more Xander thought about it, the more uneasy he felt. Then he said, "Forget it, I'll go with you!"He asked the nurse to bandage the wound hastily. Then, he got up and wanted to leave.However, he felt himself collapse as soon as he stood up. He was u
There was a flash of warmth in Byron's eyes as he witnessed the warm atmosphere inside."Byron, do you really not want to go in?" Andrius urged, seeing the change in his expression.Byron's face darkened. "No, not until Xander is finished."Only after Xander paid his dues, could he sit beside that little woman with peace of mind.He might be softened and hold back because of that little woman if he went in now.Andrius knew what his buddy was thinking, so he stopped persuading him. He glanced at his phone and said, "The plan has already started."Byron's eyes darkened like he was dissatisfied with the original plan. He pondered for a moment, and said coldly, "After this, Lawrence and Quirke will join forces to attack Lancer's stocks abroad. Then, we’ll release the news to all the other local institutions and abroad, join forces to bring down Lancer's stock price."Andrius nodded in agreement and immediately began to order his assistants to do it.One o'clock after midnight.Th
"Slow down, everyone. Tell me, what happened?"Old Master Lancer could vaguely guess that his grandson had caused trouble. Since it was Lancer family-related, he chose to come forward after all.Everyone maintained a level of decorum when they saw the old man coming forward. "Sir, this matter has nothing to do with you. Ask Xander to talk to us!"Old Master Lancer had been in the medical industry for so many years. Everyone knew his character well.Many people present had also received the old man’s favor and kindness, and they did not want to hurt the old man.Old Master Lancer glanced at the room briefly to find the living room filled with company leaders who had business relations with the Lancers.Some have cooperated with Long for many years, but their faces were filled with anger.This made the old man feel even more flustered. He spoke calmly, "Xander is not here now. Please, tell me what happened. If he did something wrong, on behalf of the Lancers, let me apologize to e
"Where is Xander Lancer? Come out and give us an explanation!"Everyone surrounded the assistant, asking about Xander's whereabouts.The assistant struggled to support the old man with one hand, while trying to appease the crowd. "Mr. Lancer is waiting for you at Lancer Corporation. Everyone, please go ahead. I’ll send the old man to the hospital first."Everyone did not think much about it. In addition, the old man had fainted, so they did not want to stop him. They could only watch the assistant leave and then rushed to the company angrily.The century-old foundation of the Lancer family collapsed overnight.Andrius raised his eyebrows at Byron when he read the news. "Can we go in and see my sister-in-law now? She had been looking for you since she woke up!"Byron reluctantly accepted the outcome, adjusted his expression, put away the hostility around him, then opened the door and walked in.Everyone looked over as the door opened.Linda whispered. "President Lawrence is here
Before she could finish, the man suddenly grabbed her wrist.His lips were already over hers before she could react.Rosalie was stunned for a few seconds, then slowly closed her eyes and leaned into his arms.The man's assertiveness paused slightly as he sensed her giving in to him, then his advances became forceful again.Rosalie was breathless from his kiss. She opened her eyes slightly and saw the back of her best friend on the window of the ward. That made her shy as she struggled slightly.Byron stopped sensibly but still held her tightly in his arms.‘A person who had always been calm, unexpectedly showed a rare emotion of fear.’Realizing this, regret flashed across Rosalie's eyes and just let him hold her.Not sure how long it took before Byron finally let go of his embrace. He returned to his usual calmness."You’ve worked hard these few days," Rosalie spoke in distress as she watched the man in his most vulnerable state, unable to hide his fatigue.Byron just looke
