It Was Prevarication
Rosalie still remembered that time at the coffee shop. Melody had made it clear that if she got involved
with Byron, measures would be taken.
After that, she never saw that man anymore.
She even thought that after all domestic affairs were arranged, she would take her children along to
settle down abroad.
Melody’s move at this time was disadvantageous to both of them.
Rosalie’s head was in pain, she took out her phone and decided to call Melody to ask her.
However, after a few calls, it kept saying it was out of service area.
Apparently, she had been blocked.
Rosalie turned off the phone in frustration and apologized to Yves who was waiting at the side. “I’m
sorry, it’s my personal matters that affected the research institute.”
Yves had already guessed that when he heard her conversation with Leon earlier and saw her
emotions shift after that. Hearing this, he gently smiled. “Since it has happened, let’s just think of how
we can solve this.”
Rosalie nodded.
Both of them thought of the Quirke family at the same time.
Rosalie was the one who cured old Master Quirke, and the Quirke family had promised to supply the
research institute with medicinal materials at half the price.
After the Quirke family cooperated with them, other medicinal materials suppliers followed suit and
changed their previous remarks. They all looked for them to cooperate.
Rosalie knew that these people had to compromise because of the threat from the Fuller family, so she
did not argue with them. The research institute also cooperated with several medicinal materials
suppliers at the same time.
This time around, the medicinal materials that had not arrived did not include those from the Quirke
family. They probably had a shot.
Thinking of this, Rosalie’s heart rose with hope again as she said to Yves, “Ask if the Quirke family’s
side has the medicinal materials that we need. We didn’t reserve them before this. I’m not sure if they’ll
arrive in time.”
Yves nodded. “I was thinking the same thing.”
After saying this, he took out his phone and rang the manager handling the Quirke family’s medicinal
materials.
There was no answer for a long while.
Both their hearts sank at the same time.
Rosalie still held a trace of hope in her heart.
The Quirkes were second to none in Coast city’s medical field. Besides, Lawrence Corporation and the
Quirkes had always been on good terms.
She refused to believe that Lawrence Corporation would threaten the Quirkes, let alone that Andrius
would break his promise.
This phone call, however, made her feel a little uneasy.
After who knew how long, the other end finally picked up.
Yves was heavy-hearted but still managed to adjust his mood and bring a smile to his face as he said
hello to the person over the phone. “ Mr. Juan—”
Before he could even finish his sentence, the person on the other end interrupted him. “Let’s talk
another time, Dr. Graham. I need to go to a meeting now. I’ll hang up first!”
After saying this, he immediately hung up without giving Yves the time to respond.
Listening to the busy sound on the other end, Yves’ expression turned solemn.
As Rosalie had cured old Master Quirke, their research institute was given preferential treatment in the
Quirke family all this while. Nothing like this had happened before.
It was obvious from the manager’s words that he was just trying to stop Yves from pestering him.
They must have also received instructions from Lawrence Corporation to stop supplying them with
medicinal materials.
Rosalie did not hear the conversation, but she clearly heard how the phone was hung up when Yves
only said those three words. He did not even have the chance to mention the issue.
Yves’ expression even turned worse after he hung up.
This made Rosalie’s heart sink.
