After Rosemary and Jacques arrived in Riverspire City, they checked into the International Hotel. The reason for Rosemary’s visit was, of course, the ongoing negotiations about the nanomedicine project.

When Charlotte and Evander arrived, they found Rosemary in the hotel’s expansive dining hall, deep in conversation with Professor Aldridge’s team. Rosemary wasn’t fluent in foreign languages, but luckily, she had her diplomat son to interpret, which made it easy for her to keep up with Professor Aldridge’s discussions.

Charlotte glanced up, meeting his gaze.
