Chapter 218: Chapter 213: One by One Standing Up for Her
“Brother! Be honest, is Rainny White your mistress?”
The voice exploded from the phone receiver, and Carlos reflexively moved the phone away from his ear.
On the other end of the line, his sister Maria Carter’s roar was like a surging tide, attracting the curious looks of many passersby around.
Just now, Carlos had called Maria to inquire about Rainny White’s dismissal. Maria readily admitted that she had asked Evan Palr to do it.
She even declared that the Carter Clan doesn’t need employees so blind.
Carlos’s silence on the other end was like a fire that thoroughly ignited Maria’s fury.
“Let tell you, as long as I’m alive, my sister-in-law can only be Emily Parker.
If you dare to wrong my sister-in-law again and ss around outside, I won’t recognize you as my brother.
Rainny White must go, go, go.
If you plead for her, I’ll tell Mom about this, and then I’ll have Mom blacklist her so she can’t find a job anywhere in the Capital!”
Maria Carter yelled like a machine gun, her decisive actions clearly declaring her resolve to Carlos.
Carlos rubbed his temples helplessly, feeling a headache. He had never expected his sister’s reaction to be so intense.
He was very clear that there was really no romantic relationship between him and Rainny White.
Before Emily Parker ca into the picture, he indeed had the idea of taking care of Rainny White for life, but it was more out of a sense of responsibility.
But now, he had Emily Parker and a child.
He was just simply thinking about arranging a stable job for Rainny White so she could have a secure life in the Capital.
Recalling Emily Parker and Maria’s reactions just now, Carlos felt his head buzzing.
He knew well enough that keeping Rainny White in the Carter Clan was indeed inappropriate and would only make things more complicated.
After thinking it over, he decided to arrange for Rainny White to work with Faye Manor, who was reliable, so he could feel more at ease.
While Carlos was imrsed in his own thoughts, thinking about how to approach Faye Manor, he suddenly sensed a piercing gaze on him.
He looked up alertly and t William’s angry stare.
“Mr. William.”
Carlos nodded slightly as a gesture, maintaining his usual polite smile.
The last ti at the Eastern Hospital, after so negotiations with Mr. William, they reached a cooperation agreent.
The project between the Eastern Hospital and the X Research Institute, with the Carter Clan’s special fund allocating 500 million, was supposed to be a mutually beneficial and win-win situation for all three parties.
Now, it was only the signing ceremony away from officially implenting the cooperation.
Carlos instinctively reached out to greet Mr. William, but Mr. William just scoffed coldly, arrogantly raised his chin, and showed a disdainful expression.
“Mr. Carter, I’m here to inform you that your cooperation with the X Research Institute has been canceled.”
Mr. William’s voice was ice-cold, devoid of any warmth.
As the external agent of the research institute, Mr. William was fluent in many languages, and he hadn’t missed a word of Maria’s outburst on the phone just now, listening clearly.
It was then that he learned the doctor was pregnant.
Although the doctor never explicitly said who the child’s father was, the conversation just now instantly made William guess.
This man before him, Carlos, was the father of the child in the doctor’s belly.
In William’s eyes, Carlos was an out-and-out scoundrel!
The more William thought about it, the angrier he got, and he couldn’t help but glare at Carlos again, as if he wanted to devour him alive.
Carlos’s face instantly darkened, and a sliver of coldness flickered in his usually gentle eyes, showing so displeasure.
He questioned,
“Mr. William, how can you go back on your word?
We had previously agreed on the cooperation with all details settled. How can you just cancel it?”
He fixed his gaze on William, trying to find so room for negotiation from his expression.
“Why can’t I go back on my word?”
William’s lips curled into a mocking smile, and he arrogantly said,
“Legally, only after signing does the cooperation take effect.
Until then, we can back out anyti.”
With that, he slightly raised his head, his expression becoming even more aloof.
It’s well-known that the X Research Institute, with its top-notch research strength and nurous cutting-edge research achievents, is renowned internationally and not lacking in investnt.
International tycoons and wealthy businessn, eager to establish ties with the X Research Institute, are constantly lining up, racking their brains to invest.
If it weren’t for X Doctor’s ambition to integrate Chinese and world dical circles and gain international recognition for Chinese dicine, the X Research Institute wouldn’t even consider developing projects in China this ti.
And this scoundrel dared to wrong the doctor; William’s heart burned with an inexplicable rage at this thought.
Just then, William’s driver steadily pulled up the car beside him.
Without sparing Carlos another glance, William decisively opened the car door, got in, and then slamd the car door shut in Carlos’s face with a huge bang, signaling what seed like his final ultimatum.
Carlos stood there, stone-faced.
This cooperation was extrely important to the Carter Clan, and this dical fund project was a wish his mother had long hoped to fulfill.
Now, with William’s outright refusal, this cooperation seed on the verge of collapse.
Carlos stood motionless for a long ti, his brows furrowed tightly. After pondering for a while, he picked up the phone and dialed Oliver Ross’s number.
“Oliver, find out when X Doctor starts enrolling PhD students at Capital dical College?”
His voice was deep and resolute.
In his bones, Carlos was always determined, never one to leave things to fate.
This cooperation with the X Research Institute was not only about the Carter Clan’s interests but also carried his mother’s long-held wish, and he was determined to achieve it no matter what.
Since William’s inexplicable hostility completely blocked the cooperation channel, he had to find another way.
After careful consideration, Carlos set his sights on the core figure of the X Research Institute, X Doctor.
Within the power structure of the X Research Institute, while William served as the external agent, often in the spotlight, he was no more than the second-in-command, whereas the true decision-maker was the enigmatic X Doctor.
At this ti, he just learned that X Doctor was about to start PhD enrollnt in China, which gave Carlos a glimr of hope.
Logically, for such a significant enrollnt event, especially the PhD interview session, X Doctor would definitely participate in person.
Carlos already had a plan in mind; he intended to seize this opportunity to et X Doctor and use his sincerity and capability to persuade the doctor and facilitate the cooperation between them.
