Chapter 26

She Can‘t Wait Any Longer “Increase by two points?”

Yves was stunned. “President Fuller, did we not already settle this before? Why do you wish to increase the price suddenly now that we‘re about to sign the partnership?” Seeing his surprised appearance, Wendy crossed her legs comfortably and said in a leisurely voice, “Indeed, we had agreed prior, but the prices in the medicinal materials market have overall gone up this year. If we signed the contract with you with the originally agreed–upon price, we will lose too much. I hope Dr. Graham understands.”

This was said in a sanctimonious manner.

Yves‘s expression froze slightly. He wanted to say something, but Rosalie stopped him. “I think Miss Fuller had a sudden urge to raise the prices because she saw me. I know the prices in the medicinal materials market like the back of my hand. If you want to raise prices, we can discuss it but it‘s unreasonable to raise it by two points at this time.” Rosalie wanted to be professional but the other obviously wanted to make things difficult. She had no need to tolerate it either.

Hearing this, Wendy frowned unhappily and said coldly, “No matter the reason, we are now at this price. If you find it inappropriate, our family will be just fine without your business.”

“In that case, today would have been for nothing. Even if we cooperated with a flip–flopping company like Fuller Industries, we would not feel at ease,” replied Rosalie coldly. With that, Rosalie stood up and said to Yves, “Let‘s go.” Yves nodded and the two left the coffee shop. “Do you have some history with Wendy Fuller?” Yves could not help asking after they left. He could feel Wendy‘s hostility toward Rosalie clearly when they were discussing their partnership just now.

Rosalie did not want to recall what happened back in those years and simply replied, “I suppose so.”

Seeing that she did not want to talk about it anymore. Yves ceased his questioning. Instead, he talked about the matter with the medicinal material supplier. “We will have to look for a new supplier again if we aren‘t going to sign with Fuller Industries.” Rosalie nodded. “And we‘ll do that, Coast City is huge.

Besides Fuller, there are always other suppliers who are willing to sign with us.”

“Alright.” Yves smiled and nodded.

He was more unwilling to see Rosalie targeted than to look for another medicinal material supplier again.

In the cafe, after Rosalie left, Wendy‘s expression was still cold as she instructed Carl, “Go send a message to all the medicinal material suppliers in Coast City immediately. Anyone who dares sign with Virus Research Institute will be an enemy of the Fullers!” Carl was not aware of the history between his lady and Dr. Jacobs from before. However, he could clearly feel how frighteningly low the pressure surrounding his lady was since he saw Dr. Jacobs. Hearing Wendy‘s tone, at this moment, he trembled even more. Not daring to delay even for a moment, he replied. “Yes, I‘ll do it now.” With that, he got up and left. At that moment, only Wendy was left sitting at the coffee shop alone. Recalling Byron‘s attitude that morning as well as the sharp imposition from Rosalie just now, Wendy‘s mind was a flurry.

It did not matter if Byron had rejected her because of Rosalie, those two indeed had a period of marriage between them. She still could not get a hold of Byron‘s attitude toward that woman.

If this were to drag on any longer, she dared not imagine what would happen. She could not let things go on like this!

Lawrence Corporation. “Master, I have information about the man that Miss Jacobs was with last night.”

Luther entered and stood respectfully in front of Byron.
