Far Too Coinridental
The next day, there was not much work in the research institute. After lunch, Rosalie briefly dealt with
the remaining work and brought some nutritional products developed by the research institute to the
Quirke family’s home.
Andrius was already waiting for her in the living room.
Seeing that Andrius was alone in the living room, Rosalie asked in confusion, “Where’s old Master
Quirke?”
Andrius pointed upstairs. “He is taking a nap upstairs at the moment. We didn’t expect you to come so
early.”
Rosalie nodded in comprehension and lowered her voice subconsciously. “The research institute just
happened to be less busy today. Old Master Quirke has helped me so much during this time. I thought
of giving him a thorough check-up again.”
Andrius nodded. “Sure, just wait for him to wake up. Let’s sit downstairs for a while.”
Rosalie did not think too much about it. She put down the nutritional supplements and sat down on the
single sofa next to Andrius as they chatted about the old man’s physical condition.
The two chatted for a while, then the butler’s voice suddenly sounded outside the door.
“President Lawrence, old Master Quirke is having his afternoon nap upstairs. Please wait a moment.”
Hearing this, Rosalie’s voice stopped abruptly, she subconsciously looked at the door of the villa.
The slender and tall Byron strode in while dressed in an expensive custom suit.
The man was listening to the butler as he lowered his head intently. He finally nodded and replied in a
deep voice, “I see.”
After speaking, Byron raised his head and looked into the living room.
The man’s eyebrows twitched slightly when he saw the people sitting in the living room. He appeared a
little surprised.
Rosalie also frowned but did not respond for a while.
Andrius was sandwiched between the two and looked back and forth between them, feeling helpless.
However, there was a look of surprise on his face. “Byron? when did you arrive? why are you suddenly
here today?”
Byron indifferently looked away from Rosalie and said to Andrius, ” I’ve been busy with work for a
while. 1 had time to spare today. I came to visit Grandpa Quirke. How is he?”
Andrius shrugged and passed the baton to Rosalie. “You have to ask Dr. Jacobs, she has always taken
care of the old master’s health. Dr. Jacobs just gave the old master a full body check-up not too long
ago.”
Rosalie found it strange.
She did not know if it was just her illusion, but she felt that meeting Byron today was far too
coincidental.
Moreover, Andrius’ words just now felt deliberate.
Byron’s gaze returned to her, but he did not say anything as if they were just unrelated strangers.
Rosalie could not suppress the oddity in her heart. She tried her best to calmly meet the man’s gaze
and smiled at him detachedly. ” Hello, President Lawrence.”
Seeing her alienated expression, his lips tensed in irony. “Dr. Jacobs, please tell me about Grandpa
Quirke’s physical condition.”
Rosalie was startled.
After returning to Somerland this time, Byron’s attitude toward her was completely different from six
years ago when he was ambiguous or angry most of the time.
It was rare for him to be so indifferent.
She felt uncomfortable for a while.
Realizing her thoughts, Rosalie pinched her palm hard to calm herself down and told Byron about old
Master Quirke’s physical condition in an orderly manner.
The old man’s current health was alright, but he had been in bed for many years. Some of his bodily
functions have somewhat regressed. He needed more exercise.
After listening, Byron just nodded coolly and sat down beside Andrius without saying a word.
