Chapter 1222 More Harm Than Benefits
"Was Young Master Xander here yesterday?"
Rosalie could not help herself from asking.
When she asked, she saw Byron's expression change, and he seemed displeased.
Rosalie was startled and did not know what she had said that angered him.
She saw Xander's missed calls and recalled the night she went unconscious when she was with Xander.
Xander was also there when the poisonous gas struck her.
Rosalie could not help but worry about Xander’s condition now.
"Is Young Master Xander so important to you? Why do you only care about the kids and Xander when you recover?"
Byron looked at her gravely as he spoke, moving closer to the bed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRosalie was puzzled by his sudden anger. She frowned and explained, "I just saw that he had called me several
times, and I was poisoned-"
Byron interrupted her before she could finish speaking, "He was with you when you were unconscious."
Rosalie did not think much. Recalling the scene at the time, she nodded.
She doubted if Byron's words meant more than they sounded.
"Have you ever wondered why you fell into a coma while Xander was just fine when you both inhaled the toxic
gas?"
Byron stood by the bed as he looked at her and questioned her.
Rosalie suddenly froze and realized what he meant.
Byron suspected that Xander was behind the failed experiment.
Realizing this, Rosalie retorted without hesitation, 'There’s no reason for Young Master Xander to do that."
Byron never expected Rosalie to speak out for Xander without hesitation. His gaze on her deepened, and he
lowered his voice. "You seem to trust him a lot."
The sudden tense atmosphere shocked Rosalie, and she realized she was too anxious. She gradually calmed down
before speaking again.
"It’s not a matter of my trust in him. But the Lancer family is the one leading the project now, and Young Master
Xander has put a lot of effort into it. Now that the project has finally reached a new stage, he has no reason to do
something like that."
In addition, she was responsible for researching the core technology of this project. She had mastered the profound
process of the project.
By hurting her, it would mean that Xander was abandoning the project.
However, the project involved many things, and it was now publicly known. It would do Xander more harm than benefit if
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhe poisoned her.
What Rosalie said was the same as what Byron said.
Byron was more displeased now. "Is that so? So, why don't you tell me who else could've done this apart from him? Was
it Dr. Graham, then?"
Rosalie lifted her eyebrow and retorted again, "Dr. Graham wouldn't do that. We’ve worked together for years, and I trust
him."
Moreover, Yves had little contact with the experiment. She had been around him when he was dealing with the
experimental items.
Even if Yves wanted to do something, he would not have had the chance to do it.
Yves had no reason to do such a thing either.
Byron was annoyed to see Rosalie speaking up for other men. Angered, he mocked, 'Who else could it be? Was it you?
Did you get too tired at work, so you got yourself exposed to the toxic gas in order to take a long break?"
