Trick Him Into Divorce, Then Flee With His Unknow Kid novel Chapter 263

Chapter 263: Chapter 263 A Bouquet of Trouble

After all, it had been such a long time.

They needed some reassurance. Otherwise, after everything that had happened—offending Ethan, losing several major projects, and suffering setbacks both internally and externally—the situation would only continue to worsen.

Samantha pressed her lips together. “I’ll handle it.”

She offered no further explanation.

Logan, however, continued, “We need to make plans as soon as possible. If we can’t secure the top position openly and legitimately, then we’ll have to resort to other necessary measures.”

As an elder, he couldn’t bring himself to say those “necessary measures” outright.

But he knew Samantha understood exactly what he meant.

Samantha sounded slightly impatient. “I’m going to see Ryan.”

With that, she ended the call.

Samantha drove straight to Kingswell.

The next few days would determine everything—success or failure hinged on this moment. Rose had NYU’s full support, and if the academic paper symposium went well, she would likely be promoted to the National Center for Biomedical Innovation once again.

Samantha had to find a way to ensure that Rose... could never recover.

She arrived at Kingswell.

Ryan was still in a meeting.

While waiting in his office, Samantha opened her laptop and continued editing her thesis.

As she worked, she suddenly remembered something.

One of the key reasons Aster had established such an extraordinary reputation in academia was because of her dissertations, which were regarded as textbook-level masterpieces.

Samantha searched for those papers.

As she studied their exceptional quality, her eyes narrowed.

She was so engrossed that she didn’t even notice Ryan walk into the office.

Ryan stepped inside.

His gaze fell on Samantha’s laptop screen, where an academic paper was displayed.

His eyes briefly settled on the author’s name.

Aster.

He then glanced casually at Samantha before looking away and continuing toward his desk.

Noticing his presence, Samantha instinctively closed her laptop.

“Ryan, are you finished?”

“Yeah.”

Samantha walked over and said with a hint of resignation, “My dad said the company hasn’t been doing well lately. It seems Ethan has been targeting us.”

Ryan glanced at her sideways. “He needs an outlet for his anger. If necessary, I’ll arrange other business opportunities for your family later.”

Hearing his reassurance, Samantha’s spirits lifted. She looked at him with admiration shining in her eyes.

“It’s okay. After all, this is a choice I made willingly.”

Only then did Ryan look directly at her.

A faint smile tugged at the corners of his lips.

“How’s your paper coming along?” he asked.

Samantha smiled gently. “Professor Max is still helping me revise it. The quality is exceptional. I’m confident I’ll take first place.”

As for Rose...

She wasn’t qualified to compete with her on equal footing.

Ryan nodded.

“That’s good.”

*****

When Rose arrived at NYU, she learned that the research laboratories had just been equipped with a brand-new batch of equipment.

The offices and laboratories had now been integrated.

It was a major upgrade.

The investor, of course, was Kingswell—specifically, Ryan.

Alicia came running over first thing in the morning, chattering excitedly.

“Professor Rose, you have to try this new equipment! It’s incredible. We won’t have to run back and forth between different labs to analyze samples anymore. Each machine functions as a complete workstation. It’s fully equipped—you can even connect it to a computer for presentations and online meetings. It’s going to make our research so much faster!”

Rose walked over to test it.

She connected her laptop.

It really was incredibly convenient.

No more running back and forth between laboratories.

Rose had no idea how much this new equipment had cost, but it was undoubtedly an astronomical investment.

“Isn’t it amazing?” Alicia asked excitedly. Looking as though she had discovered buried treasure, she gently ran her hand over the machine beside Rose. Her cheeks were flushed, and her eyes sparkled at the thought of how much easier future experiments would become.

Rose smiled. “There’s no problem in this world that money can’t solve.”

Although the equipment had been purchased for Samantha’s project, everyone would benefit from it. It offered undeniable practical value.

“Professor Rose, have you finished your paper yet? The academic symposium is only a few days away,” Alicia suddenly asked.
