After Having a Dream, I Became Pregnant with a Billionaire's Child-Chapter 171 - 167 Special Treatment

"Boss, the representative from X Research Institute said they don’t need our investment from the Carter Clan and declined our meeting."

Oliver Ross was reporting beside him.

"We previously attempted to contact their representatives by phone, but they also refused.

The head office is really in a tough position; X Research Institute has never collaborated with outsiders, and this time is no exception."

Oliver Ross truly felt it was unfair for his boss. The Carter Automotive project was progressing smoothly, and just as both parties were about to collaborate, the head office suddenly asked the boss to take over a new project.

The boss initially didn’t want to agree, but Vice President Palmer brought up the boss’s wife, saying that this new project was a medical project initiated by her back then.

Carlos saw that Carter Automotive was on track, so he agreed. freewebnøvel.com

He just didn’t anticipate that no domestic research institute could complete this new project independently. Only by collaborating with the internationally renowned X Research Institute could they succeed; otherwise, the previously invested funds would be wasted.

Carlos made numerous inquiries and learned that the delegation from X Research Institute had arrived in the country. He attempted several times to arrange a meeting, but they all declined.

Just earlier, the boss went personally, yet they still refused.

The boss’s face wasn’t looking good after being shut out.

Oliver Ross was worried, and suddenly Carlos said, "Cancel my afternoon schedule, get me an invitation; I want to attend the X Research Institute’s reception."

With that, Carlos walked out of the elevator.

"Emily?

Why does Master Lowe call you his teacher?"

Evelyn Hanson looked utterly shocked.

"You heard wrong,

Master Lowe is my teacher.

Teacher, Evelyn and I want to join the fun inside."

Emily Parker pulled Evelyn Hanson along. She had only recently discovered that rumors outside claimed Master Lowe was her teacher. Not bothering to explain, she simply referred to Master Lowe as her teacher when outside.

Master Lowe wiped the sweat from his forehead, thinking if the teacher says so, it must be.

Emily Parker and Evelyn Hanson, under Master Lowe’s lead, entered the reception hall.

The reception hall was already bustling with guests filling every seat.

This reception was officially organized, and all invited were big names in the medical field.

At this time, the reception hadn’t officially started, but the guests were already greeting and exchanging pleasantries with each other.

When Father Parker and his daughter Sophie Parker entered with Adam Willow, Doctor Reed immediately called Adam over.

Adam Willow was young and had never attended such high-profile receptions before.

Thankfully, Doctor Reed intentionally introduced him to other experts in the medical field.

Father Parker also engaged in small talk with relevant staff, accompanied by his daughter Sophie.

Sophie Parker wasn’t particularly interested in this type of reception. Her eyes wandered around the hall, knowing that the X Research Institute delegation might include Dr. X.

He was likely to be Adam Willow’s doctoral advisor in the future, so she wanted to leave a good impression if they met.

Emily Parker and Evelyn Hanson also entered the venue.

Master Lowe was quickly invited away by several traditional medicine experts, while Emily Parker and Evelyn Hanson, both attending such a high-profile reception for the first time, knew no one.

Evelyn Hanson quickly pulled out her business cards, distributing them to the big names in the medical field.

Emily Parker, busy all morning, felt a bit hungry and took a tray to find something to eat.

She filled the plate with lots of food and found a quiet corner to sit and eat.

Suddenly, she heard someone say,

"The people from X Research Institute have arrived, isn’t the one in front Dr. X?

I didn’t expect him to be so young."
