“It’s because of unscrupulous doctors like you that the medical field has been corrupted!”Xander pulled a dagger from behind him as he shouted and dashed toward Rosalie. “If it weren’t for you being a fool, I wouldn't have ended up like this!”Upon seeing the dagger in Xander’s hand, Rosalie’s heart skipped a beat.The crew members who had been standing aside were fast to react and subdued Xander, pinning him to the ground.The dagger fell from Xander’s hand, yet he was still struggling.“Get off me! I paid you! You took my money, yet you're helping them hurt me! What a group of ungrateful bastards! I’ll poison you one by one!”The crew members pinned Xander down silently as they looked at Byron for his order.Byron spoke expressionlessly, “Since you felt that Lawrence Corporation was a threat to you, you should've investigated before you fled. You should've at least found out how many companies Lawrence Corporation has.”Xander stopped yelling and looked at Byron in disbelief
In just a day, the Lancer family became a family everyone hated instead of the legendary medical family.Everything was already set in stone. After getting off the boat, Byron started the car engine and asked Rosalie, who was beside him, “Where do you want to go?”After all those days in the hospital, Rosalie might want some fresh air.Rosalie paused for a few seconds and muttered, “I want… to visit Old Master Loewe.”Byron’s forehead puckered upon hearing that. “Old Master Loewe is staying in the hotel near the hospital. He won't be leaving so soon. It’s fine to visit him some other day.”Rosalie shook her head. “I woke up from my coma thanks to Old Master Loewe. Moreover, I don’t know where to go now. So, let’s visit him first."Since Rosalie insisted, Byron agreed and drove to the hotel.Rosalie leaned against the window and closed her eyes. She looked sad and tired.She was poisoned and had to watch Xander being so vicious. It was a huge blow to Rosalie, and it made her
“This is…”Rosalie placed the glasses on the table carefully and asked.They were here to thank Old Master Loewe, so the bank card was…“It's a token of thanks I prepared for Old Master Loewe, but he refused. It seems he has something else to say.”With that, Byron took back the bank card on the table.Rosalie looked at Old Master Loewe in a puzzle.Old Master Loewe chuckled. “Indeed. I have something I need your help with. You came at the right time.”Rosalie would naturally agree and nodded. “Please feel free to tell us. You helped me, so I'd do anything to help you!”“I’m glad to hear you say that.”With a smile of relief, Old Master Loewe looked at Rosalie meaningfully. “My request is that I want to work in your research institute. This should be easy for you to arrange.”Old Master Loewe wanted to work in her research institute?Rosalie doubted it when she heard it and asked, “Are you serious?”After so many years of seclusion, she thought Old Master Loewe would be eag
Watching Byron and Rosalie walk out of the room made Old Master Loewe ponder. Then, he decided he should visit Alistair.After all, Alistair was the one who hired him to help. Since this matter was over, he should tell Alistair about it.After deciding, Old Master Loewe set off to Alistair’s villa in the suburbs.Just as he entered, he saw Alistair and Andrea sitting on the sofa.Andrea had a smile on her face, and she leaned against Alistair occasionally. Alistair had no intention of avoiding her. They looked intimate.Old Master Loewe’s brows furrowed upon seeing this, and he cleared his throat.They parted as if they had just heard his entrance.“Old Master Loewe, why did you come today?”Alistair looked calmer than Andrea. He turned around calmly as if nothing happened and greeted Old Master Loewe as he beckoned a maid to get Old Master Loewe a cup of tea.With a slight nod, Old Master Loewe sat on the single-seater sofa beside them. “I came here today just to let you know
Alistair could not say anything more. He could only arrange for someone to drive Old Master Loewe back.Only Alistair and Andrea were left in the villa.“Are we going to let him work in Rosalie’s research institute? You put so much effort into getting him out of seclusion.”Andrea felt it was not worth it.Alistair glared at her, displeased. He retorted, “What else can I do? Are you capable enough to make him work for us?”Andrea’s heart skipped a beat upon hearing his unfriendly tone. She remained silent yet was still unconvinced.She could not understand what was so good about Rosalie that even Old Master Loewe wanted to work for her.He should stay on their side, even if he wanted to escape seclusion.For a moment, the atmosphere in the living room was tense.Alistair remained silent for a while before saying, “We might not be able to stop that old man, but we can’t let Rosalie get him either.”Upon hearing this, Andrea nodded and asked curiously, “What should we do, then?
Meanwhile, Rosalie still looked pale. It was uncertain if it was because she was in a bad mood or that her body was weak.Byron was worried. After leaving the hotel, he took her for lunch and drove her to the hospital for a body check-up.Rosalie knew he was worried and cooperated with him.After confirming that her body examination results were normal, Byron was relieved.“I know my health. The poison has been cleared.”Rosalie comforted Byron. "Too many things happened in one day, and I can't take it. I'll be fine in a while.”Rosalie lamented how two-faced Xander was. It was because of him that Lancer Corporation perished in just one day.Byron hugged Rosalie as he spoke in his deep voice, “Lancer Corporation became like this because of Xander. The Lancer family has to bear the responsibility because they didn't realize what he had been doing. So, it's their fault that Lancer Corporation perished.”If Lancer Corporation was left to continue developing, they might do somethin
Rosalie quipped when she heard Mary said that, “Are you sure you want to treat us to dinner with Byron around?”She knew her best friend well. Her best friend would never give up any chance to take advantage of Byron.However, Mary rejected decisively this time. “I can get him to pay the next time. This time is on me. President Lawrence will have to wait for the next time to pay.”Rosalie laughed. “Alright. Dinner is on you.”Mary said, “I’ll send you the location in a while. Let’s meet at the restaurant.”They hung up the call after that.Rosalie looked at Byron. “Mary said she's buying us dinner tonight and asked us to bring the kids along.”Byron agreed and went to pick the little ones up.The little ones had not seen their mommy since they returned home last night.The little ones were excited to finally see their mommy back in good health.“Mommy! You're back!”Smiling, Rosalie crouched and hugged the three kids as they rushed toward her. She listened patiently to what
Rosalie had just recovered. After what happened, Byron was worried about letting her stay outside alone.“You can go back first. I want to hang out with Mary for a while.”Rosalie could see Mary had something she wanted to tell her. Thus, she decided to go along with Mary's plans.Byron frowned, and he looked worried.Mary understood his worries and said, “If you're worried, you can send someone to protect us. You don’t have to worry about me making Rosalie do something that'll betray you.”Byron agreed readily, saying, “I’ll send someone to protect you girls. Call me when you're done and I’ll pick you up.”It seemed he had planned to do so from the beginning.Mary had no objection to this. She even quipped, “Looks like having a husband is different from being single like me.”Rosalie smiled as she spoke to the kids, “Mommy will go out with Godmother for a while. You guys return home with your daddy.”The kids nodded obediently.Byron called his men and left after making sure
