Trick Him Into Divorce, Then Flee With His Unknow Kid novel Chapter 185

Chapter 185: Chapter 185 A President’s Power

Rose almost felt like thanking Samantha.

If it weren’t for the other woman’s sudden illness, Ryan wouldn’t have stormed out so dramatically. Otherwise, she would have been trapped there all night, enduring an agonizing ordeal.

This outcome was actually for the best.

As for how the entire Knight family viewed her, she couldn’t care less.

Rose knew Ryan would have his hands full that night.

Since the old estate was close to Moon Lake Villa, she drove there instead.

For the first time in a long while, she slept soundly through the night without a single dream.

Over the next two days, Rose and Ryan didn’t see each other.

Neither heard any news about the other.

It was as if their subtle argument that night had been nothing more than an illusion, and as if the "miscarriage" incident at the Knight family estate had never happened.

Everything seemed calm and peaceful.

Rose had more than enough work to keep her busy.

Now that she was also managing New Hope, she had to juggle responsibilities on both sides.

She checked in on New Hope’s affairs whenever she had time.

One day, William reported, "President Bennett, Miss Hill’s team has expanded. They’ve added several new members and introduced additional features to the project. It’s no longer just about patient guidance. She wants the robot to enter operating rooms and assist in major surgeries. That may require significantly more resources."

Rose immediately focused on the key point.

"Did she approach you directly?"

William understood exactly what she meant.

In his view, the relationship between Rose and Samantha was like a stretched rubber band. If it snapped completely, people like him would be the ones caught in the middle.

"Yes..." William replied awkwardly. "Miss Hill came directly to me and asked for approval."

In reality, Samantha had approached him multiple times already.

The project had reached a critical stage. Besides funding, it required New Hope to mobilize substantial resources and manpower to support it.

Naturally, such decisions required approval from upper management.

Yet Samantha had never once gone through Rose.

It was as if Rose didn’t exist as her superior.

Her attitude made it obvious that she didn’t recognize Rose’s authority, and William could only stand helplessly in the middle.

Rose understood Samantha’s thinking perfectly.

Unless Rose personally approved something, Samantha refused to acknowledge her position as New Hope’s president.

She still seemed to believe New Hope ultimately belonged to Ryan.

A faint chuckle escaped Rose. "If you think the proposal is worthwhile, approve it. If her project succeeds, New Hope benefits. At the end of the day, it’s all about creating value for the company. Use your judgment."

Rose couldn’t be bothered arguing with Samantha over trivial matters.

She didn’t care about Samantha’s arrogance as long as it generated profits for New Hope.

Besides, once the project was completed, she would send Samantha right back where she came from.

For now, the contract still stood, and she intended to honor it.

William nodded repeatedly. "Yes, President Bennett."

As expected of Mrs. Knight.

Her perspective was on an entirely different level.

If William were in her position, he probably would have fired Samantha on the spot and kicked her out of the project, regardless of what others might say about personal grudges.

Few people could remain as professional as Rose.

Meanwhile, Rose had no interest in arguing about titles, hierarchy, or workplace etiquette.

The surgical robot project at G.S. was about to enter field testing.

Market deployment was still ahead.

Her schedule was packed.

During a break, Rose visited a hospital near New Hope to conduct research on smart healthcare and stopped by New Hope afterward.

The moment she stepped out of the elevator, she found herself exiting alongside someone from the neighboring elevator.

Samantha turned her head.

The instant she saw Rose, she shot her a cold glance before addressing a secretary from the General Manager’s Office.

"Where’s Mr. William?"

She completely ignored Rose, treating her as if she were invisible.

The secretary looked distressed.

"Mr. William just finished a meeting..."

She was shocked as well.

How confident was Samantha to openly disregard New Hope’s president?

Just then, William emerged from the conference room.

Upon seeing Rose, he immediately walked over.

"President Bennett, you’re here."

Rose nodded.

Samantha frowned.

Clearly, she thought William should have greeted her first.

Getting straight to the point, she said, "Mr. William, regarding the marketing campaign our R&D department is preparing, I’d like to secure advertising placements in several key locations. Shall we discuss it?"

New Hope’s promotional resources were among the best in the industry.

The company could provide unmatched exposure and support.

William instinctively glanced at Rose.
