My Ex-Wife and Kids Came In Like A Wrecking Ball novel Chapter 1707

Rosalie was still awake when Byron returned to the hospital.

He quickened his pace when he saw the bright lights in the ward.

"Why aren’t you resting?" With a little worry in his eyes, he looked at the woman on the hospital bed who was lost in her thoughts.

Rosalie came back to her senses upon hearing his voice. She pursed her lips and smiled. "I've been sleeping for three to four days straight. I can't sleep anymore."

Then, she asked about the children, "How are the kids? Are they asleep?"

Byron said, "I came here only after I made sure they were asleep."

Rosalie felt relieved. Her heart ached as she looked at him. "You look almost as bad as me. You should’ve slept well at home tonight."

For those who were unaware, one might think Byron was the one who was critically ill, judging from the look on his face.

He heard this, subconsciously wiped his face, and frowned indifferently. "I’ve had several sleepless nights before over some business discussions in the past. This isn’t a big deal."

He went to the hospital bed and sat down, looking at the woman in front of him with a soft gaze. "Besides, you’re still in the hospital. How can I leave you alone? Even if I dare, the kids won’t spare me."

Rosalie looked at him puzzled, wondering what this had to do with the kids.

With a deep smile, Byron told her what the little boy said in the car just now.

Rosalie's heart softened to know that the little one defended her so much. "I was afraid they would be frightened to find out, but I never expected..."

Then, she smiled and looked at Byron mid-sentence. "Not only are they unafraid, but they’re confident because you’re here."

Byron stopped talking and looked at her helplessly. "You don't have to worry in terms of funds. The liquidated damages given by Lawrence Corporation and Quirke Enterprise will absolutely be satisfactory to you. You can use the money to increase employee benefits. It doesn’t matter if you take the profits from Lancer Corporation or not."

Rosalie's face was stern. "I’m the person in charge of the research institute. If you want to terminate the contract with the research institute, then I’ll continue to find another partner. I will never consider Lancer Corporation!"

Rosalie had already decided not to interact with Xander in the future after discovering what a nasty piece of work he was!

Xander wanted to use this to threaten them. It was all the more reason for Rosalie to not let him succeed!

Due to her resolute demeanor, Byron was silent for a few seconds with some hesitation in his eyes. "I understand how you feel, but this isn’t the time to cut ties with Xander."

Rosalie would still be useful to Xander if the Lancers could form a collaboration with the research institute.

If they were unable to develop the antidote in the future, she could still obtain it from Xander.
