C18 I Can't Do It Without Him!

He frowned and said, "She still has value. I can't ask this question so soon."

She raised her head and said, "Valuable? What else can she do? When you married her, you said that you could stop the marriage between the Jenkins family and the Alger Group. What else can she do now?"

"Did you forget what your father does? Didn't you say that since the last incident, his company is in a crisis? The Alger Group is going to be your inheritance in the future. Now, she needs the raw materials from your father to develop the latest product. We will start production soon. When the time comes, I will ask for the raw materials from the Alger Group. Your father will be saved, won't he?"

She stuck out her tongue and said, "Oh, I almost forgot about this."

"So, I can't divorce her now. I still need her to follow up on the technology. Even if we divorce, we can talk about it after the product is developed."

He stood up and looked out of the office window. He saw Priscilla walking towards him with a client. The negotiations seemed to be going smoothly. The client was smiling and she was also full of smiles. She had never given him such an expression before.

Before they entered the elevator, she gave them the local specialties that she had prepared beforehand as gifts.

This action was her own creation, and she had spent all her money on it. At first, he was a little disgusted by her flattering behavior, but after receiving the compliments from countless clients, he started to change his mind.

After watching the guests leave one by one, she stopped smiling and walked back. Just as she was about to walk back, she suddenly held her forehead with one hand and the other hand on the wall. Her body swayed a few times, as if she was about to fall down at any moment.

Suddenly, he pushed the woman away and rushed out...

He didn't even take a few steps before Priscilla stood up straight and slowly walked towards the Sales Department.

He stopped in his tracks and looked at the weak back. A sense of loneliness that he had never felt before suddenly ignited in his heart.

Damn it! Am I worried about this woman? He despised himself from the bottom of his heart. Ever since he saw her crying on the man's shoulder in the car, he started to feel an inexplicable sense of insecurity. Even though he was trying to escape from home, he couldn't help but think about the taste of her cooking every day.

It was as if... he was worried that she would run away at any moment.

"What's wrong? Hao?" Rosetta followed him and stared at Priscilla's back.

At the corner, Priscilla's body paused for a moment, but she held back the urge to look back. She had just seen them hug each other through the window of his office.

After thinking for a while, she decided not to turn around.

"It's nothing." He turned around and walked back.

When he returned to his office, he received an email from his assistant, "Priscilla, the negotiations have gone smoothly. The contract can be signed in the next week. Please come to the office at the appointed time."

He wanted to reply to the email, but then he remembered something and turned off the computer. He opened the contact list and found Priscilla's name.

"I've received the email. I'll let you know when the time and place are right." After typing these few words, he turned off the computer.

As if he had forgotten that Rosetta was still in the office, he stretched lazily and realized that she was staring at him.

For a moment, he didn't recognize her. She was no longer the Rosetta from before. The obedient and sensible girl had become as annoying as other women.

Rosetta looked at the man in front of her and felt her heart tighten.

In the coffee shop next to the Rowley family's house, it was quiet and elegant.

Kendra took a sip of the coffee in her cup and looked at the nervous and conflicted woman in front of her with interest. However, she still did not plan to speak first. Rosetta had taken the initiative to invite her today, so she had already guessed what it was about.

Rosetta could not help but say, "Auntie, I am in such a hurry to meet you, but I really don't know what to do to find you. I hope you can help me."

Kendra's lips twitched as she caressed her hand. She said gently and ambiguously, "We are all family in the future, so there's no need to be so polite. Don't be so polite to me."

Rosetta finally relaxed a little and clenched her teeth, "Then, Aunt, I won't be polite with you anymore … Just like you said, I also think that Lachlan has fallen in love with that woman."

Kendra's hand froze. She had only guessed at that time, but now even Rosetta had noticed it. It was obvious that Lachlan's actions were very obvious.

"I regret not listening to you at that time. I don't know what to do now."

"What should come will eventually come. Your fault was not that you didn't listen to me at that time. Your fault was that you used a man that you didn't deserve to provoke him. Is he an ordinary man? Your provocation is useless. Instead, it is the opposite."

Rosetta was surprised by Kendra's understanding of the situation. She had no choice but to lower her head and maintain the posture of admitting her mistakes in front of the experienced Kendra.

After a while.

"If I help you, what can you give me?"

"I promise you everything you told me at that time."

Kendra smiled faintly, "Everything? I seem to have only said one sentence."

"Your words are everything. They are everything that I have to work hard for in the future."

"Even if he is just a poor person when he gets Lachlan, he will still do it?"

Rosetta clenched her teeth and said, "I will do anything."

"Very good. Then, repeat what you have to work hard for in the future. If you pass, I will help you."

"Do your best to help Lachlan manage the Silverwood Group. In two years, help your youngest son, Lance, take back the Silverwood Group."

Kendra stared at her. "Anything else?"

"... Get Foster to get out of the chairman's position as soon as possible."

"That's right. You remember it." Kendra's expression was relaxed as she took another sip of her coffee. "It seems that you really love Lachlan."

Rosetta raised her head. "I'm already used to having him by my side. I can't do without him now."

Kendra nodded with a faint smile. She could see through Rosetta's little tricks, but she didn't need to bother about it for the time being.

When Priscilla came out of the laboratory, it was already dark.

Just as she was about to call a taxi, a brand new car slowly opened up beside her.

The window rolled down, and a familiar face almost made her scream.

The man in the car was wearing a clean white shirt with his sleeves rolled up. There was a pair of sunglasses on his chest, and his muscles could be vaguely seen in the shirt. He was as sexy and alluring as ever.

"Oh my god! Senior Brother Lachlan!" Priscilla covered her mouth and screamed in surprise. It had been many years since she had been so excited.

The man in the car chuckled. After enjoying Priscilla's cute surprise, he pushed the door open and got out of the car.

"Senior... Senior Brother, why are you here? Am I dreaming?"

Even though Edwin was standing right in front of her, she still thought that she was dreaming.
