登入Jax knew his boss’s personality better than anyone.
Once Rue made up her mind, even if the sky fell, she would not easily change her decision.
After inspecting the kiln thoroughly and confirming there were no problems, Rue finally stepped away.
“Make sure someone stays here twenty-four hours a day. Keep a close watch on it. There can’t be any accidents with this kiln.”
“I understand, Boss. I’ll arrange an identity for you when th
Because this incident had happened due to pharmaceutical research, she absolutely would not let it slide.“I used to worry that Mason would damage his health by throwing himself into scientific research. But he has always been someone with great compassion. Now that things have reached this point, the Langford Family has no choice but to take action. I will fully support his work. Right now, I’ll immediately provide his research institute with one hundred million in funding.”When Mason was young, Evelyn’s temper had already been stubborn and unyielding.After all these years, not a single bit of that had changed.She wanted to do things for the people.She wanted to accomplish things that truly mattered.No one in the family dared to oppose the old madam’s decision.Whatever she ordered, they would carry out.Before Evelyn left, she turned around and reminded the others once more.“Th
Rue arrived at the café in a daze to meet Jace.Seeing her like this, Jace frowned deeply. For a moment, he didn't know how to comfort her."Rue, don't blame yourself too much because of this. None of us could have predicted something like this happening. And Mason didn't get hurt because he came to see you. If someone deliberately wanted to target him, it wouldn't have mattered whether he stayed in the capital or not...""It's different." Rue lowered her eyes. "The capital is definitely safer than Lystra."After saying that, she let out a guilty sigh."I'm really sorry... I'm sorry to the Langford Family, and I'm sorry to Mason...""You silly girl, what nonsense are you talking about?"Jace lightly tapped her forehead, then affectionately pinched her cheek."How could this possibly be your fault? My baby sister, don't ever think like that. If Mason were here, he definitely wouldn't want to see you blaming yourself like this."

Keep a close watch on it. There can’t be any accidents with this kiln.”“I understand, Boss. I’ll arrange an identity for you when the time comes. You can use it to go abroad and participate in the competition. After you win the award, you can attend the AU Auction.”Jax had already arranged her upcoming schedule perfectly.The rest would depend on her.Rue understood the situation clearly.Right now, they were being attacked from both sides.Yet at this critical moment, she still had to find resources and restore the organization’s funding chain as quickly as possible.Af
Seeing her say that, Julian couldn't help but secretly wonder if it was because she didn't like watching movies.Thinking back, he remembered the relationship advice materials Kieran had downloaded for him before. They contained all kinds of detailed strategies on how to pursue a woman."Then... let's talk about it tomorrow."The moment Julian finished speaking, his phone suddenly chimed.Someone had sent him a message.As for who it was, he already had a pretty good guess.Julian instinctively turned over.The person sitting opposite him wasn't prepared for the sudden movement. She lost her balance and stumbled forward, falling straight into his arms—Her soft, pink lips, delicate like a cherry blossom, landed lightly against his forehead.A gentle kiss.The moment those warm lips touched his skin...A faint, unnatural flush appeared on Julian's ears.He immediately raised his hand to steady R
She carefully placed the tray in her hands on the table beside her and asked softly,“Did I interrupt you?”“No. Of course not.” Julian had already ended the call quickly.Without hesitation, he also blocked the number belonging to Clarissa.Ever since their first meeting, this woman had been haunting him relentlessly.Usually, whenever he treated women coldly enough, they would give up after ten days or half a month and leave on their own.But Clarissa was the only one who had persisted for such a long time.Although Julian had already blocked her number, Clarissa refused to give up.Using another phone number, she sent him a text message.[Mr. Vanderbilt, don’t hide from me like this. I know you don’t like me right now, but that’s okay. Feelings can develop over time. One day, you’ll definitely fall in love with me. I’m about to arrive in Lystra.”]
She couldn't stand patients who had already given up on themselves.She'd been racking her brain trying to find a way to detoxify Julian..."Ahem... Boss, your call."Just then, Kieran hurried over with a tense expression and handed Julian his phone.The caller ID displayed nothing but an encrypted string of numbers. Rue couldn't tell where the call was coming from.Still, judging by the look that crossed Julian's face, she knew immediately it wasn't good news.He stood up and walked into the villa's small sitting room before answering.On the other end came the old butler's voice from the Vanderbilt estate."Young Master... I'm afraid the Old Master really isn't going to make it this time. He said there are still things he needs to tell you in person. He wants to know when you'll come home so the two of you can talk face-to-face."The last time, the old man had used the exact same trick to lure Julian all the way back t
