My Ex-Wife and Kids Came In Like A Wrecking Ball novel Chapter 359

Chapter 369 Don’t Let Them Know For Now

As Rosalie had been busy until quite late the previous night, she managed to sleep soundly when she finally went to bed.

The following morning, Rosalie was woken up by the ringing of her phone.

Her head was still a little fuzzy after having just woken up. After fumbling around on her bedside table for a while, she finally found the source of the sound.

Rosalie looked at the caller ID, then answered her phone in a daze.

On the other end, Yves’ voice was filled with anxiety as he said, “Dr. Jacobs, we have a problem.”

Rosalie was suddenly wide awake. She shot up from her bed, and her voice was slightly hoarse as she asked, “what happened?”

“A batch of medicinal materials was supposed to arrive this morning, but it’s already way past the scheduled time and the goods are still nowhere in sight.” Yves’ face was filled with dread.

The medicinal material suppliers who partnered with their research institute were usually on time with their deliveries.

In the past, if the suppliers said that they would arrive in the morning, the institute would receive the medicinal materials by the time they started work. Today, however, they were way behind schedule.

If these medicinal materials were not delivered in time, then many projects would have to be put on hold within the next two days. Their research progress would be delayed, and the institute would suffer another loss.

Rosalie’s expression hardened. “Have you called our suppliers to ask about it?”

As she said that, she put the call on speakerphone so she could hear Yves¹ reply while washing her face and brushing her teeth.

“I did, but some of them didn’t even pick up. Those who did were really vague about it and didn’t give us a definite response.” Yves felt his head hurt just thinking about it.

It would have been fine if they had simply told him that they did not want to be business partners anymore, but every one of those suppliers just acted like they did not know anything.

He did not even dare go to other suppliers to order medicinal materials now.

Rosalie felt her heart sink. She changed her clothes in a hurry and replied, “Got it. I’ll be right there.”
