Michael quickly responded, Rest assured, Aunt Tiana.
Ive already come up with a way to make up for this mistake.
Tiana scoffed
I can’t even come up with a good solution, and you’re claiming you have one? Michael smirked.
Aunt Tiana, you may not be aware, but Ive long had a master of medical arts at my side.
If I can persuade him to step in, hell surely be able to resolve the Pharmaceutical Divisions urgent crisis.
Tiana raised an eyebrow, intrigued.
A master of medical arts? Who?
Michael said, This person doesnt have the best reputation. Hes a disgraced disciple of Advanced Medical Institute.
But as for his medical skills, they are absolutely top notch even Dr. Aicker doesnt measure up in his eyes.
Tiana looked surprised.
You’re not talking about the Master of Poisons, Bane Eslinger, who defected from Advanced Medical Institute years ago, are you? Michaels face lit up
Exactly, Aunt Tiana.
You know of the Master of Polsons? Yes, its him.
Tianas eyes narrowed as she spoke slowly.
Bane is said to be erratic and eccentric, completely unlike ordinary people.
Years ago, he used live subjects for experiments, causing countless deaths, which led to his expulsion and punishment by the Advanced Medical Institute
But his medical skills are indeed as legendary as his reputation suggests, even surpassing Cedric . Fine, lets see what you can do
If you can bring the Master of Poisons into our fold, I’ll count that as a great achievement for you.
I Michael was ecstatic.
Thank you, Aunt Tiana! Please rest assured, I will do whatever it takes to get the Master of Poisons to revitalize our Pharmaceutical Division and develop blockbuster formulas for us! Tiana glanced at him, her expression softening slightly.
Michael, you should understand why I’m so strict with my own daughter but show favoritism to you, right ? Michael immediately bowed his head.
I understand, Aunt Tiana Its because you’re willing to groom me, not just to take over Rhodes Corporation but the entire Rhodes familly in the future.
Tiana sighed.
You’re correct
Thats exactly the plan of both myself and the family head.
Laurens father, the head of the Rhodes family, is in a powerful position, but unfortunately, he and I were unable to have a son only Lauren, our sole daughter.
Originally, it wouldnt have been impossible for Lauren to succeed Rhodes Corporation; she has the capability for it.
But ever since Joe became infatuated with her, the family has developed different and more advantageous plans for her.
Thats why, for the sake of family stability, I’m willing to suppress my own daughter and grant more authority to you.
You must understand the sacrifice and foresight behind our decision.
Overwhelmed with gratitude, Michael immediately dropped to his knees.
I will forever remember your kindness, Aunt Tiana! However, as Michael knelt, he failed to notice the icy and mocking glint in Tianas eyes as she looked down at him.
By the time Michael stood up and looked back at Tiana, the frost and ridicule in her gaze had vanished, replaced by the kind and supportive look of a senior admiring a promising protege.
At that moment, Jerry and Laurens secretary, Eunice, entered the room together. Mrs. Rhodes ! Mrs. Rhodes! The two greeted her in unison.
Tiana gestured for Jerry to wait and turned to Eunice.
Where is Lauren ? Tell her to come home with me after work.
Eunice hesitated, her expression awkward.
Ms. Rhodes… she already left.
12 Tianas face darkened
Where did she go? Contact her and have her return to the Rhodes residence immediately.
Eunice looked even more uncomfortable.
Ms. Rhodes left with Mr. Baldwin, and her phone has been turned off
Right now, no one … knows where they are
Tianas fury erupted as she immediately tried calling Lauren, only to be met with the same message : her phone was off.
This is infuriating ! After several failed attempts, Tianas chest heaved with anger.
Jerry stepped forward and said, Mrs. Rhodes, please calm down.
Ms. Rhodes is a dignified and sensible woman.
I don’t think she would do anything inappropriate.
And as for Kingsley, he can be considered a man of integrity.
He should know the boundaries he mustnt cross.
Tiana gritted her teeth.
Forget about those two for now.
Jerry, has Ruby been captured ?
Jerry shook his head
Based on the leads provided by Mr. Rhodes, we conducted surprise inspections of all the hotels, but we didnt find her.
Ive already reported the situation to Mr. Warren at the Jayrodale Police Department.
If even he can’t find her, then itll be a real problem.
Michael frowned, visibly unsettled.
Thats strange
Troy was just captured theres no way Ruby couldve sensed it and escaped so quickly.
Tiana snapped, Shut up.
Do you think everyones as incompetent as you ? Keep searching for that wretch ! After the loss shes caused the Rhodes family, I wont rest until shes torn to pieces! Meanwhile, Lauren lingered at the Moonlit Sanctuary until late at night before reluctantly returning home, The moment she stepped inside and turned on the lights, Tiana was already there, like a ghost waiting in the darkness.
Laurent surprised
She said calmly, Please leave.
I need to rest.
Without a word, Tiana strode forward, pulled up Laurens sleeve, and inspected her arm before exhaling in relief
Lauren sneered.
Relax.
The mark is still there.
Im still a virgin.
Tiana instinctively wanted to lash out but, for some reason, her expression softened
Taking Laurens hand gently, she asked in a quiet voice, Lauren, do you hate me as your mother?
Lauren shook her head.
Hate is too strong a word.
Theres just no bond between us.
You gave birth to me but didnt raise me
When I finally grew up, you found me, only to talk endlessly about how amazing the Driscoll family is, how wealthy and powerful they are, and how deeply rooted their legacy is.
All you wanted was for me to marry Joe for the familys sake.
Ive never heard of a mother like you someone who didnt care for their child growing up but swoops in later to dictate their marriage and force them to marry for convenience.
For a brief moment, a flicker of pain appeared in Tianas eyes, but she quickly concealed it.
Without saying another word, she turned and walked out of the room.
Lauren stood frozen, her composure finally breaking as she began to sob softly, Unbeknownst to Lauren
, Tiana had stopped just outside the door.
Leaning against it, she listened to her daughters quiet cries and murmured softly, My child, no one in this world loves you more than I do
It breaks my heart to see you unhappy
But there are things you don’t understand yet.
One day, youll know that everything I’m doing is for your own good.
Ms. Snees, theres nowhere left for me in Jayrodale.
Please arrange for me to leave the city immediately! At a secluded location, Ruby appeared in a state of panic, urgently pleading with Aspen.
