The Mysterious Family
Rosalie had no idea what the two were thinking.
On the way to the restaurant, Rosalie smiled while she caught up to Leon. “Why did you suddenly want
to have lunch together today? Did you just come back from s City?”
Leon nodded noncommittally. “I just came back last night. I sent Senior Lewis off before I got on the
plane. It was midnight when I came back.”
Rosalie thought of the time he sent a message to her. It should be right around the time he got off the
plane.
‘I wonder what could be so important?’
“Senior Lewis asked me to come back and say hello to you on his behalf. He wants to know if the
problem your research institute was facing has been resolved,” Leon said again.
Rosalie was touched to know that Senior Lewis thought of her, and the smile on her face became
brighter. “I can’t thank you and Senior Lewis enough that night. Those medicinal materials suppliers
might have been hesitant, but after Senior Lewis said a few words, they immediately agreed after
taking into consideration Senior Lewis’ reputation.”
Leon nodded deeply. “Good to know that the matter is resolved, but I don’t know if Auntie Melody will
embarrass you again.”
During this time, Leon had always felt unjust for Rosalie.
He guessed that the reason why Melody would target Rosalie was because of her grudge against
Rosalie after Rosalie had left the Lawrence family without leaving with a word. Besides, Rosalie was
getting closer to Byron after her return this time.
However, in his opinion, Rosalie was the victim of the incident back then. Rosalie getting close to Byron
now was not her fault either.
Rather than wasting time on Rosalie, Melody should keep an eye on her son.
He once wanted to help Rosalie, but he was not the head of the Martin family. Hence, the Martin family
was not a worthy opponent of the Lawrence family. Hence, he was powerless to help.
Fortunately, things had now been resolved.
Rosalie had a heavy heart as they were speaking about Melody. “I don’t know, but I’ve tried to
disappear from her sight as much as possible. I hope she can forget my existence.”
Especially during this time. She had the rare opportunity to join the Lancer family’s free clinic. After
that, she also wanted to compete with the others to become a partner of the Lancer family.
If Rosalie missed out on this opportunity because of Melody’s grudge, she would not know what she
would do.
Seeing her worried look, Leon had a trace of remorse in his eyes. He felt that he had opened a can of
worms.
There was a brief silence in the car.
After a while, Rosalie sorted out her mood and changed the subject casually. “By the way, Leon, why
did you suddenly ask me to have dinner with you today?” 1
The last time they had dinner together, Leon had invited her to join the academic exchange meeting in
North City.
‘I wonder what would it be this time?’
Hearing this, Leon also put away his thoughts and brought up the agenda of the day. “You’ve been
living abroad all these years. I don’t know if you’ve heard of the Lancer family. They’re the leading
family of traditional medicine in Somerland, but recently, they went on hiatus and lived in seclusion.
They rarely show their faces for activities, so they’re a very mysterious family.”
The Lancer family again.
This was the second time she had heard someone mention the Lancer family.
Rosalie could not help but feel a little confused. “I’ve heard of them, and I’ve always been interested in
the Lancer family’s ancient medical books, when I was abroad, I hoped to be able to visit them but
never had the chance. Then I heard that they’re going to set up a free clinic soon.”
Leon raised his brows slightly and glanced at her in surprise. He wondered where she got the news.
“That was what I was going to tell you today.”
