Trick Him Into Divorce, Then Flee With His Unknow Kid novel Chapter 265

Chapter 265: Chapter 265 A Silent Answer

Rose was furious.

When it came down to it, if Ryan and Oliver hadn’t built this stage for Samantha, the Hill family would never have dared to flaunt their success in front of her. They had only grown bolder because of Ryan’s support.

If Ryan refused to return the antique shop, then so be it.

Even if she had to take him to court, she would.

She was no longer afraid of burning bridges.

Her voice was unmistakably laced with anger, leaving no room for negotiation.

She would sever all ties with him and settle everything in court.

Yet Ryan remained silent on the other end of the line.

Rose pressed her lips together, forcing down her emotions.

“Ryan?”

Silence.

Assuming he had heard everything she needed to say, Rose was about to hang up when the line suddenly filled with a series of beeps.

Ryan had disconnected the call before she could.

He hadn’t responded to a single one of her demands or acknowledged her anger.

Rose stared at the screen in disbelief as the call ended.

In truth, it wasn’t all that surprising. Their relationship had deteriorated to the point where there was no dignity left to preserve.

She didn’t care whether Ryan took her words seriously.

Her position was already clear.

With her current status, hiring one of the city’s top attorneys wouldn’t be difficult.

She could afford to wait.

She was going to marry Trevor.

And she was going to get the antique shop back.

Rose closed her eyes for a brief moment.

Setting her phone aside, she steadied herself and returned to work.

Once she married Trevor, Ariel’s future would finally be secure. With that burden lifted, she was willing to fight for everything else.

This paper would be reviewed by a panel of professors from several universities, along with senior leaders in the medical community.

Research teams from universities across New York had all submitted their academic papers.

Each paper would be evaluated and ranked based on its merit.

The results would determine the selection of the final General Research Team.

It was also a crucial step toward securing a permanent position at the National Center for Biomedical Innovation.

The academic symposium was being held at NYU.

Every discussion centered on the treatment of neurological diseases, attracting some of the country’s foremost medical experts.

Including Dr. Nathan.

When Rose arrived, she saw Dr. Nathan’s car pull up.

The old man climbed out with his hands clasped behind his back. Upon spotting her, he didn’t bother greeting her. He merely lifted his chin and strode straight into the main conference hall.

Rose couldn’t help but chuckle.

She looked around.

Today marked the final stage of the competition.

She recognized several senior officials, including leaders from the Academy of Sciences and the National Health Commission.

It was an event of enormous scale.

Even Rose felt a cold sweat form across her back.

“Professor Rose!”

Alicia waved enthusiastically from across the courtyard.

She hurried through the crowd and jogged over.

Rose was just about to ask how she was feeling when two more cars pulled up.

Ryan immediately became the center of attention as he stepped out.

His tall, elegant figure walked around to the passenger side before he personally opened the door for Samantha.

She stepped out gracefully, wearing a faint smile.

From a distance, Rose watched the highly publicized display of affection like a complete bystander.

It stirred nothing inside her.

Behind them, James and Oliver got out of the second car.

Alicia’s eyes lit up the moment she saw James.

She shyly waved at him.

James glanced in her direction.

His gaze paused briefly on Rose before shifting to Alicia.

But he didn’t respond.

Without acknowledging her, he simply walked into the conference hall.

Alicia lowered her head in disappointment.

Rose found it rather strange.

Were relationships within the same extended family really so distant?
