Chapter 1766 Coveting A Slice
Andrius had some idea of the situation judging from his sister's reaction.
'What's that man's purpose?
'He's obviously against the Lawrence family. It was clear when he assisted that fugitive Wendy by smuggling her
abroad, but this time, he hired Old Master Loewe to cure Rosalie?'
Every action of his was contradictory and strange. He could not figure it out.
Andrea held back for a long time as she faced her brother's imposing aura. Her face was resentful. "What purpose
can he have? You were always the golden boy of the Quirke family, trained to be the successor since young. As for
me, no one has ever given me a chance. In the eyes of others, am I just an arrogant and wilful young lady? Am I
not worthy of having an ambition of my own?"
Andrea became more emotional as she spoke. "Brother, listen. I'm also your competitor from today onward.

Those words made all that Andrius had suppressed within him blow up.
"The Lawrences have never been bad to us. They're even quite generous to us. What's stupid is to treat the
Lawrence family as an enemy. Moreover, Byron would definitely credit our family for inviting Old Master Loewe. I'd
share any benefits with you."
After that, Andrius coldly left the house.
Behind him, Andrea's expression changed. Her eyes dimmed.
In Lawrence Manor, Byron was working on his laptop. Work had piled up after several days of absence.
Although Luther could handle most of the matters, there were still some agreements and contracts that needed to
be personally reviewed and signed by him.
Rosalie noticed the man was deeply immersed in work. She brewed a cup of hot tea and brought it over without
disturbing him.
There was a smile in her eyes. The man glanced up, and the corners of his mouth could not help but curl upward
too.
"The poison in your body hasn't completely dissipated. You should focus on resting and recovering. Don't worry
about me. You can go to bed first," Byron took a sip of tea and whispered, 1 "Well then, don't work too hard! I'll go
and see if the kids are asleep."
This quiet life made Rosalie feel particularly comfortable. Although she almost died from poisoning this time, she
gained something else.
She turned and went upstairs. The three kids were tired from playing and had fallen deeply asleep. She decided to
take a nice, hot bath.
Not long after, a car arrived at the yard, and Andrius hurried into the living room.
'It’s so late now, but Byron asked me to come over so suddenly. Could something have happened?’ ’’Buddy, what's
the matter?" Andrius asked straight to the point.

Only then did Andrius sit down with ease. He looked up at Byron, who was brewing tea slowly.
Byron was skillful with the way he brewed the leaves. Then, he took a cup that was almost full and handed it to
Andrius.
"Have a sip of tea first," he said.
Andrius took a whiff of the tea. The aroma was refreshing and fragrant.
"Buddy, I have to say, your mood over the past few days has been the most irritable that I've ever seen. You've
finally returned to normal now that you're like this." Andrius sighed sincerely while drinking tea.
Byron smiled deeply. He nodded in admission.
"Indeed! After all, she's the most important person in my life. The main reason I asked you to come over tonight is
to inquire about the status of the Lancer family's assets.
No matter how bad something was, there would always be value in it. Not to mention, the Lancer family had a long
history of traditional medicine. Xander was talented in business, but his intentions were wrong, so he went astray.
The collapse of the Lancer family had a domino effect, with many people coveting a slice of the benefits.
