Chapter 1562 Someone Else
Xander sent the meeting place to her immediately.
Rosalie took a look at the text, only to see that Xander had chosen the tearoom where they parted ways last time.
He seemed to be taking this opportunity to humiliate her.
In the past, Rosalie would definitely refuse without hesitation.
However, this time, she had no choice but to meet him on time.
When she arrived, Xander was already sitting in the tearoom, flicking the incense burner leisurely.
He did not response even when she entered the room.
Rosalie lowered her eyes and said, "Mr. Lancer."

"You’re here, Miss Jacobs? I didn't even notice, please have a seat!"
Rosalie nodded slightly and sat down calmly next to him. Xander was still fiddling with the incense burner carelessly.
Xander explained as if he noticed her gaze. "This incense has a calming effect. I’m letting it burn faster, in order to
prevent us from quarreling like last time."
He said it casually as if the fragrance had such a strong effect on him.
Rosalie calmly looked away, pursed her lips, and smiled. "If Mr. Lancer shares the same purpose as me, we wouldn't
quarrel."
Xander fiddled with his fingers for a while before stopping in satisfaction and turning to face her. "Oh? What is your
purpose, Miss Jacobs?"
Rosalie looked at him in the eye. "The original intention of developing this drug was just to reduce the patients'
burden, with the patients' best interest at heart."
Xander felt as though he heard a joke. "Since this is the case, why do you care so much about profit sharing? Isn't it
enough for you that the medicine can be launched?"
He thought Rosalie would refute him with reason, but unexpectedly, Rosalie nodded in agreement.
"That's what I thought at the beginning. As long as the drug can be successfully launched, I wouldn't mind giving all
the profits to you."
Xander frowned slightly, and a look of astonishment flashed across his eyes.
Rosalie immediately said again: "Thanks to your reminders, Mr. Lancer, I realized that as the person in charge of
the research institute, I am responsible for the livelihood of the research institute staff as well as being a doctor. Mr.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLancer, you should be aware of how difficult the process has been throughout. If I give away our drug development
without making any money, the employees will be disappointed in me as the boss. If things continue in this manner,
it will be extremely difficult for the research institute to retain employees."
This was the warning she foresaw from Xander's behavior at the previous dinnerparty.
At the same time, this was something Byron subtly taught her.
She wanted not only to protect the interests of patients but also the interests of her employees.
Suddenly, Xander laughed, kept nodding, and even clapped his hands.
"Miss Jacobs, that was excellent! However, what you said just now must have been taught by President Lawrence,
right?"
The disdainful and contemptuous expression on his face sent chills down Rosalie’s spine.
She remembered meeting Xander for the first time at the free clinic.
Xander struck her as a highly qualified heir to a traditional medical family who is gentlemanly and kind.
He defended her and chose to believe her when everyone else did not. Though, now, the person in front of her
appeared to be someone else, completely disregarding the lives of patients for the sake of profit.
