Chapter 1634 I Used Incense

Xander sneered. “It depends on President Lawrence’s performance whether or not I’m in the mood togive the antidote.”

Then, he looked at Byron mockingly. “President Lawrence, do you think you can make me give in byinvolving my grandfather? Since when have you become so childish to be asking the elders to speakup for you?”novelbin

Old Master Lancer was already pissed off. He started coughing violently upon hearing that. “Cough…Shut up! You are on the wrong side, how dare you make up excuses!”

“All I did was for the Lancer family!” Xander said righteously.

The butler saw Old Master Lancer coughing violently. Ignoring the chances of being scolded, heapproached and helped Old Master Lancer return to the living room.

Old Master Lancer could not even speak. He was still angry, but he could do nothing. All he could dowas point at Xander, warning and hoping he would repent and make up for his mistake.

However, Xander did not even look at him. Instead, he felt relieved that his grandfather had left andwould no longer get in the way. With that, he spoke in a domineering manner to Byron.

“Now we can properly speak since we’re alone!”

Then, Xander sat on the chair nearby idly with his legs crossed.

Byron frowned. “Mr. Lancer, have you made a decision, since you said you would think about ityesterday? If you have already thought of the terms, you can reveal them now.”

Xander’s brows furrowed in displeasure. “President Lawrence, you sound like I owe you something.Aren’t you the one asking for my help now?”

The garden fell into silence.

Xander glanced at the man before him.

He could see Byron was withholding his anger, stopping himself from blasting into a rage.

After a while, Byron spoke. “Mr. Lancer, what do you want? I won’t hesitate to give you anything youwant as long as you can cure Rosie.”

Xander was finally satisfied. “If you showed this attitude when you negotiated the cooperation on behalfof Rosalie, all of this would not have happened.”

Then, he sneered. “But it’s too late even if you changed your attitude. I still need to reconsider it.”

Byron’s hands clenched into fists, but he tried to remain calm. “Of course, you have the right to decide,but I have my doubts.”

Xander lifted his eyebrow and said, “Feel free to raise whatever doubts you have.”

“When did you drug Rosalie?” Byron stared into Xander’s eyes.

Xander smiled meaningfully. “President Lawrence, you seemed to have looked down on me all thiswhile. I am, after all, the heir of the Lancer family and would not resort to foolish methods like druggingsomeone. My method is more proficient than that.”

Byron clenched his teeth angrily, waiting for Xander to expose his methods.

“I used the fragrance from incense,” Xander explained casually, and he even sounded smug. “If it isused repeatedly, Ms. Jacobs will experience the effect I wanted.”

Xander observed Byron’s expression as he spoke.

He seemed to be dissatisfied with the effect and added, “To be honest, I used it every time I negotiatedwith Miss Jacobs, except for the times you were around. Too bad that she didn’t notice it and thought itwas just a habitual act of the Lancer family.”

Recalling Rosalie’s na?ve reaction, Xander felt it was ridiculous and he even scoffed.

Byron could no longer hide his anger upon seeing Xander’s expression. He could not hold back theurge to hit Xander.
