Xander had to stay behind to preside over the follow-up work and bade the two people goodbye.Rosalie and Leon left the orphanage side by side.Leon looked at her with a deep smile. "How do you feel about the free clinic today? Judging from Young Master Lancer’s attitude just now, you should have achieved your goal."Hearing this, Rosalie then finally came to the realization.She had been so focused on the children today that she had forgotten that she came here to win favor from the Lancers today. Even when she thought about it, she still felt that the children were more important.Looking at it now, however, she had not only helped the children, but she had also gained Xander’s favor.Xander’s attitude just now explained it all!Realizing this, Rosalie's eyes sparkled with excitement. She turned back to face Leon and thanked him deeply, "Speaking of which, thank you for being here today, Leon. You were a great help.”Leon raised his brow with amusement. "I don't remember he
It was already very late when Rosalie got home, but Lucian and Nox were still awake. The moment they heard footsteps coming upstairs, they carefully opened the bedroom door and peeked their heads out.Rosalie could not help but think of the children in the orphanage when she saw her boys. Her heart felt a little heavy.Seeing Rosalie's expression, the little ones ran over with concern. "Mommy, what's the matter? Did the free clinic today not go well?” Rosalie smiled at the boys reluctantly and took them back to the room.The boys sat beside Rosalie one after another while staring at Rosalie eagerly. "Mommy, how are the children at the orphanage?"Rosalie shook her head bitterly. "The children there don’t have parents. Some of the children were even abandoned by their parents because of their illnesses, but they’re still very sensible."Rosalie's mind was filled with images of the children lying down on her hospital bed as she spoke, along with those who were sent to the hospital
It was getting late. Rosalie chatted with the boys for a bit before coaxing them to sleep. She then returned to her room. The next morning, Rosalie got up and went to the research institute first.The staff of the research institute all knew that she had gone to the Lancer family's free clinic the day before. When they saw her appear, they greeted her curiously."Dr. Jacobs, how was the free clinic yesterday?""Are the Lancer family's medical skills really as glorious as rumored?""..."A series of questions hit Rosalie's ears.Rosalie smiled at everyone. "The free clinic is not as mysterious as everyone thinks. It’s just like any other free clinic. As for their medical skills… She did not have the qualifications to comment on their medical skills, but the Lancer family's skills must be very outstanding for them to have attained their position today.Everyone was only focused on diagnosing and treating the little children yesterday, so she did nothing notice whether other peo
After lunch, Rosalie drove directly to the Quirke household.It was all thanks to Old Master Quirke that she was able to participate in the free clinic this time. Hence, she should go to the Quirke household to offer her gratitude in person.In addition to the batch of supplies the Quirke family sent yesterday afternoon, she should also thank them on behalf of the children in the orphanage and ask clearly just what happened.Rosalie called Andrius in advance while on the way to the Quirke household.When she arrived at the Quirke household, Andrius was already waiting in the living room.Seeing Rosalie enter, Andrius smiled and got up. "Dr. Jacobs, are you here to see the old master? He’s still resting upstairs. Why don't I go and inform him about your arrival?" Rosalie smiled and shook her head. "That can wait for a bit. I happen to have something to discuss with you too."Hearing this, Andrius raised a brow, puzzled. "What do you want to speak with me about?" Both of them s
After chatting with the old master for a while, Rosalie did not remain any longer. Seeing that the sky was getting dark, she got up and bade goodbye.The two boys had already been picked up when she got home, and Lisa had already prepared dinner.Rosalie brought the boys along to eat dinner and then played with them for a while. She went back to her room after waiting for them to fall asleep.Lying on her bed, Andrius' words that afternoon kept ringing in Rosalie's mind.That batch of supplies... Byron was the one who sent them to Andrius.Just what was that man thinking?Andrius had asked her to ask him herself.For some reason, Rosalie always felt that Andrius seemed to know something and that every word of his seemed to be holding a deeper meaning. Rosalie felt complicated when she thought of this.After some time of nonsensical thinking, Rosalie finally fell asleep in a daze.Early the next morning, Rosalie was woken up by the ringing of her mobile phone.When she looke
This meeting with the Lancers was very important, so Rosalie specially dressed up for this reason.That afternoon, Rosalie arrived at the cafe ahead of schedule and waited.She saw Xander enter with an old man soon after.The old man had gray hair and a thin body. He was dressed in a suit and looked 70 percent similar to Xander.One could tell the relationship between the two at a glance.Rosalie was shocked, but she quickly stood up respectfully. Seeing the two of them approach, she bowed politely to the old man.The old man smiled kindly while scrutinizing her.Rosalie was wearing light makeup, and her long hair was twisted up, revealing her delicate facial features and her fair, slender neck. She was dressed in a simple yet dignified-looking long dress. She looked very gentle.Noticing that the old man was looking at her, Rosalie also stood where she was, openly allowing his scrutiny. There was a faint smile on her face.The old man looked away from her after a while and ge
The three of them chatted briefly before Old Master Lancer immediately switched their conversation to the main topic."I heard from Old Master Quirkre that you’re very interested in the research institute that the Lancers will be setting up in the future and you’d like to cooperate with us?"Hearing the old man mention this, Rosalie’s expression turned serious. "I’ve always been interested in traditional holistic medicine. I heard that the research institute the Lancer family established also specializes in traditional holistic medicine. Not only that, the Lancer family has always been a leader in the field of holistic medicine, so I really wanted to take this opportunity to work with the Lancer family. That way, I’ll also have the opportunity to improve my skills in holistic medicine."The old master was quite satisfied with her explanation. He considered her for a while with a smile.Rosalie's expression was calm, but deep down, she felt uneasy.This opportunity was too importan
Old Master Quirke knew about Old Master Lancer’s meeting with Rosalie today.That night, after the old master had dinner, he called Old Master Lancer to ask about their partnership.Andrius was also sitting to one side. When he learned that the Lancer family had agreed to cooperate with Rosalie, he immediately reported the good news to Byron.In Lawrence Manor, Byron had just coaxed Estie to sleep when he received a call from Andrius.“What is it?"Andrius' voice was full of joy. “Let me tell you a piece of good news. The Lancer family has already agreed to cooperate with Dr. Jacobs, so she probably won't be going abroad in the meantime.”At that, Byron’s brow was raised, and he nodded with satisfaction. "You did a pretty good job."On the other end, Andrius added, "However, this also means that Dr. Jacobs will be in contact with that person from the Lancers in the time to come."Byron’s brows furrowed slightly. "What do you mean?""Xander is in charge of Lancer Research Insti
The immense pain caused Violet to become delusional. Besides the heart-piercing howls, she suddenly burst out laughing maniacally.She bit her lip until her mouth were filled with blood. Her face was grim and distorted and her eyes bulged out of the sockets.She stared at Rosalie viciously and sneered in a sinister way. "Rosalie Jacobs, so what if I poisoned your mother to death? Who made her a b*tch, unwilling to divorce obediently, and kept taking money from Gordon. She isn’t that great! Hahaha...""......" Rosalie's blood boiled. The seventh silver needle appeared in her hand.At this time, Byron quickly walked to her side and grabbed her.‘If my wife is overtaken by her emotions and takes a step forward, she would be a murderer for sure.’He hugged Rosalie, not letting her go any further.Sophie saw her mother in such pain. She stared at Rosalie with red eyes and kept yelling. "Rosalie, how dare you treat my mother like this? I will kill you! I will definitely kill you..."
When Violet heard Rosalie's concrete words, her face was horrified, and her eyes darted quickly."Rosalie, what nonsense are you talking about? When have I ever done something like this? Don't try to slander me!" She nervously argued.As everyone knows, she had fallen into Rosalie’s verbal trap."You haven't done it? Didn't you ask Ethan to help you poison Mama? It's mercury. Just a little bit could affect my mother slowly. Just two or three times a month is enough. The long-term accumulation of toxins was enough to shorten my mother's life to a few years. Ethan was so young then and you are willing to use him. Aren’t you afraid that he would accidentally ingest it?"Rosalie's angry face and hateful eyes made Violet look away in fear. Her body trembled uncontrollably."Violet, you still insist on arguing until now. I really couldn't do anything about you a few days ago. However, I can come to you now, which means that I have enough evidence to prove that you used your good son Eth
The chainsaw roared, and the iron chain was severed in less than thirty seconds, followed by two iron doors which collapsed to the ground.Byron and Rosalie walked in through the iron gate.The frightened Sophie rushed downstairs first. When she saw the couple, she panicked and shouted. "What are you trying to do? Breaking into a private house is illegal. I'll call the police immediately!"With that, she took out her mobile phone and feigned intimidation.Rage shot to the top of Rosalie’s head. She rushed over, snatched Sophie's phone, and smashed it to pieces on the ground.How refreshing to be the bad guy.For the past twenty years or so, Rosalie had been a pro at being a good person. She always suffered losses from being kind.The best way to deal with shameless people was to be even more shameless than them. In this way, there was nothing the opponent could do.Sophie was stunned for a few seconds, but she could not stop Rosalie at all."Where is Violet? Get the hell out n
Mama’s last will intermittently recorded the last three years of her life.When Rosalie finished reading her mother’s last word, the dam had broken, and she burst into loud sobs.The heart-piercing grief lingered in her chest. She kept murmuring under her breath. "Mama, my Mama...hurts so much in her life. She was in so much pain!"She tearfully looked at her husband. At this moment, Rosalie was like a frightened little animal, her entire body trembling helplessly.Byron read the will with her. The typically calm and introverted Byron felt his eyes burning and tears streamed down his face.Immediately, a monstrous anger appeared on his face. He exuded a deadly aura all over. He gritted his teeth and said ruthlessly, "Honey, we must avenge Mama. Violet is not human. She is just a beast clad in human skin!"Rosalie cried bitterly while hugging Byron, inconsolable for a long time.Finally, Detective Carter read the contents of the will and remained silent for a long time.The con
[My dear daughter, my beloved Rosalie, I wonder how many years later will you see this written will? Ten years, or twenty years? Or you may not see it at all."[Darling, Mama loves you very much, I love you too much. So, it is you who gave Mama the courage to accept my fate at this moment. I know very well that my life is slipping away bit by bit, but I don’t feel afraid at all!][However, Mama don’t know why such bad luck happened to you. You were only three years old and just learned to run and jump around, and you’ve just learnt to pronounce the word Mama properly. Despite that, death is around the corner, knocking on my door. Mama feels reluctant, this is such a waste! Mama prays to God, I’m willing to accept anything as long as you live, even if it means falling into hell.][You were suffering from a congenital genetic disorder. I took you to many hospitals and finally found a solution. However, the treatment cost is as high as one million dollars. Mama can't afford this at all
Byron, who has always been calm in dealing with things, felt anxious this time.The car continued to accelerate. There was no time to lose. He needed to verify personally whether the heirloom left by his mother-in-law were really hidden in the frame of the wedding photo.Rosalie also looked solemn, and her heart was beating fast.Violet cared so much about Mama’s heirloom. She was still looking for it even when she could not find it after more than ten years, which shows that this heirloom was of great importance.Perhaps, there was enough evidence in it to prove that Violet harmed her mother.Rosalie truly wanted to know; how did Violet manage to poison her slowly? At that time, she had no contact with Mama at all!In about ten minutes, the car arrived at the Jacobs old house.Early in the morning, Detective Carter still led his bodyguards to search around, knocking on every wall, trying to find some hidden storage space.Upon seeing the eager faces of the young couple, Detect
That voice seemed to unveil Rosalie's dust-sealed memory like an old chest.An image from that year flashed across her mind in an instant.Under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, Mama and Aunt Lou were eating cakes, chatting and laughing over tea. As the sun set, Rosalie came from the kindergarten on the corner of the street, lugging her schoolbag as she rushed home, less than a hundred meters away.Then, she exclaimed. "Mama, I'm home!"At that time, Mama was so healthy. Her eyes were always joyful, and she was as beautiful as an angel.Aunt Lou was also very young at the time, she had just married and had no children. She liked to ask her Mama for advice on family life issues.How wonderful it would be if life could stay that way forever!Unfortunately, everything was ruined by Gordon.Rosalie’s thoughts were raging. It took a long time before Rosalie came back to her senses and told Aunt Lou that she had returned to Coast City, and everything was fine.Aunt Lou continued to
On the second day of the wedding, Mary woke up and habitually thought that it was her home. She was about to go out in her pajamas.Fortunately, Andrius carried her back to bed just as she pushed the door open.Mary woke up from her confusion and realized her new identity, the daughter-in-law of the Quirke family.The husband held her, but suddenly refused to let go. His hands began to wander naughtily.Mary was astonished. They were keeping each other up until late last night. It was only a few hours apart."Is there any custom ceremony that has not been completed? Does your family need us to greet the elders on the first day after marriage?" She suddenly became flustered, and she was short of breath.She wanted to quickly change the subject, so her man would not continue his passionate torment.It would be really embarrassing if they made any noise this early in the morning.Andrius shook his head, and moved his lips closer, wanting to attack.Mary resolutely covered his lip
In the Jacobs’ old family home, Detective Carter kept receiving calls from the bodyguards, and knew the movements of Violet's family like the palm of his hand."Sure enough, it was a bait and switch. On the surface, two cars set off; one came to us and the other was headed to the airport. In actual fact, they escaped from the basement in a taxi. However, they were indeed unable to escape."Detective Carter summarized his updates and reported to Byron and Rosalie.The detective was shocked. The bodyguards that Byron arranged for him had excellent professional skills and strong execution ability. These men were obviously carefully cultivated.Byron nodded calmly.He sighed secretly in his heart. Sophie reacted exactly the same way as Xander Lancer back then, she chose to escape by water.Indeed, travel transportation such as airplanes and high-speed rails have rigid, fixed schedules and are relatively easy to be discovered.Rosalie's mind was not present at all. As long as the hus
