Chapter 1420 That's My Brother’s Idea
Andrea trembled again.She was not like Wendy. Wendy had a great say in the Fuller Industries at that time, tens of millions was nothing to her.While she had no influence at all in the Quirke family. All the money she spent was the pocket money given by the elders.Coupled with her own extravagant expenditure, the turnover in her hands was only a few million.‘If I give Wendy five million in one breath, how much would I have left?’"I don't have that much money, sister Wendy, you know my situation." She bargained cautiously.Wendy's face was extremely ugly. "Then how much do you have?"Andrea thought for a while. "Two million, no more..."If there was more, the money in her hand would not be enough for her to spend.She had just returned to Quirke Enterprise, and she cannot touch the company’s money for the time being.And if she took the money as soon as she came back, it would also arouse her brother's suspicion.On the other side, Wendy took a few breaths. "Hand over two
Chapter 1421 Touched
Andrea put on a reluctant expression when she was chased out of the villa, yet she was delighted deep down.It would be best if Magdalene and Henry chased her out of the house. She could use this opportunity to cut off her friendship with Wendy.However, before her wish could come true, Wendy appeared and stopped Magdalene.“Mom, don’t do this. Andrea is different from the rest of the Quirke family. She’s my best friend and even brought money for us!”Wendy glared at Andrea and tried to convince Magdalene.She hated the Quirke family too.However, Andrea was still useful to her, and she could not dump her yet.Magdalene’s mood was still unstable. When she heard her daughter speaking up for Andrea, she scolded Wendy, “How could you speak up for her? Have you forgotten how it ended up like this?”Wendy’s expression changed. “I didn’t forget. That’s why we can’t chase Andrea away!”Then, she pulled Magdalene back to the living room.Before she turned around, she beckoned Andrea,
Chapter 1422 Why Isn’t Mommy Wearing The Necklace?
Byron had also suggested visiting her at work these days, but she rejected it because she was working.This time, when he heard Estelle saying she was not at home often these days, he realized that the woman had been dedicating her time to work.“Are you free tomorrow at noon? Let’s have lunch together.”Byron decided to take Rosalie on a short break from work.Rosalie was startled upon hearing the time. Then, she apologized. “I’m afraid I can’t have lunch with you tomorrow.”“What’s the matter? Is it because you can’t get away from work?”Rosalie touched her nose guiltily and said, “I have a lunch meeting with Young Master Xander tomorrow at noon. It’s about the project.”Xander?Byron’s mood sank, and his emotion was written on his face.Did it mean that even when they were not contacting each other often, that woman had been keeping in contact with Xander?The words from the old lady from the nursing home flashed across Byron’s mind.After all, he and Rosalie were not in
Chapter 1423 What Is She Thinking?
Rosalie did not wear the necklace because it was inconvenient.When she got to the research institute, she took off the necklace and put it in her coat pocket.She had a busy morning. When it was lunch hour, Xander called her suddenly, saying something came up that noon and he wanted to change their appointment time to dinner.Rosalie did not think much about it and agreed.In the evening, when she got off work, Rosalie saw Xander already waiting outside the research institute.“Please accept my apology for changing the lunch to dinner. Something came up in the company and I couldn’t leave.”Xander apologized immediately when he saw her.Rosalie smiled casually and said, “It’s alright. Work is more important. Are we still going to the restaurant we agreed to meet at for lunch? You can head there in your car first. I’ll follow behind you with mine.”With that, Rosalie headed to her car straight.Xander looked at Rosalie’s decisive steps, and he was disappointed. However, he sai
Chapter 1424 Try Harder
By the time Rosalie returned home, it was already nine.When Rosalie got off the car, she felt remorseful and anxious upon thinking the little ones were alone at home.She walked quickly into the villa.As soon as she entered, she heard noises of the kids having fun and chasing each other.Rosalie’s footsteps paused, and she looked inside in surprise.At first, she thought it was Mary, but she saw Byron sitting on the sofa.As if noticing the sound at the door, the man turned around.Their eyes met, and Rosalie was surprised. “Why are you here?”Byron said they would meet some other day.When she came back, the little ones stopped playing and approached her.“Mommy, you’re so late! Daddy has been waiting so long!”Rosalie tried to appease the kids by touching their heads, yet her gaze was on Byron.The man sat on the sofa with his shirt’s buttons slightly open and his long legs folded, looking relaxed.Seeing him like this, Rosalie could not help herself from imagining him
Chapter 1425 The Lancer Family Refuses To Compromise
Recalling what he meant by being responsible, Rosalie’s ears flushed red as she looked at the kids guiltily.The little ones pretended to be deaf and dumb and ate with their heads down.Rosalie heaved a sigh of relief and glared at Byron with anger. “I do need to think for a while about it!”Byron smiled and said, “Then I have no choice but to keep up with my pursuing.”The little ones listened to their daddy and mommy’s conversation and were delighted.They wondered if their mommy realized that her attitude toward their daddy had changed.At this rate, they would soon be a real family!After dinner, it was already late. Byron did not stay longer in the villa and left.The smile on Byron’s face disappeared once he left Rosalie’s house. Only displeasure could be seen on his face.During dinner, Rosalie told him in brief about their research institute and the subsequent cooperation with the Lancer family.Rosalie was delighted when she shared the news, but Byron did not feel ha
Chapter 1426 Smiled At Him Like That
Many of the owners of the sub-companies under the Lancer family were run by their people.Thus, outsiders could only be envious of their success.Byron fell silent upon hearing that.Meanwhile, Andrius was in the mood to chat. “Why are you asking about this? Is your wife cooperating with the Lancer family again? Do you need me to help with anything?”Byron could hear the gloating tone in Andrius’ words and sneered. “Purchase the Lancer family’s herbs supply company if you want to help.”Andrius rubbed his node awkwardly. “I can do anything except for this.”Byron said, “If you can’t do it, goodbye!”He hung up the call straight away.Andrius had a bitter look when he heard the line cut off.It was the second time his best friend woke him up and hung up on him after telling him something shocking.It took him a long time to finally fall asleep.Now, he was wide awake and would have a sleepless night.Andrius lay back in bed, scrolling through his phone and trying to feel sle
Chapter 1427 Shocking Turn
Luther was deep asleep when suddenly, a call woke him up. He glanced at the caller ID and noticed it was Byron.Luther darted up from his bed and sobered up before he answered the call. “Sir.”Byron’s cold voice came from the other end of the call. “Contact the public relations department and publicly post my relationship with Rosalie.”He was immediately wide awake after hearing Byron’s words. Luther felt it was a shocking order.He wondered, ‘What’s going on here? Why would Master suddenly announce his relationship with his wife in the middle of the night?’Luther’s voice sounded shaky when he said, “Sir, the identities of Mrs. Lawrence’s kids are unknown. Posting about your relationship now won’t benefit Mrs. Lawrence or even the Lawrence family.”Byron’s mood sank on the other end of the call when he recalled the two kids Rosalie had.The two little boys had done so much to mend his relationship with Rosalie.Byron did not mind treating them as his own as long as their birt
