Chapter 404 Do We Have to Go Abroad?
After hanging up, Dalton immediately called Riley.
Riley picked up almost instantly, "Mr. Benedict, have the herbal medicine suppliers set a time?"
Dalton chuckled, "They want to have a detailed chat with you in two days, but it depends on your schedule. Are you free then?"
The biggest issue at the research institute now was the supply of herbal medicine. Knowing that the suppliers had set a time, Riley naturally prioritized them and agreed without hesitation, "Of course, let them know I'll be there."
Dalton added, "Then, no need to prepare anything. When you arrive, someone will be there to greet you."
Riley agreed and thanked him again, "Thanks for your help, Mr. Benedict."
Dalton laughed, "It's my job. You did a lot for my grandfather back then."
Besides, given Riley's connection with Donovan, he had to help.
Dalton casually mentioned Donovan, "By the way, Donovan just called, urging me to pay more attention!"
Hearing this, Riley suddenly fell silent, recalling last night's events.
According to Dalton, Donovan was still concerned about her research institute today.
She had made it very clear to him yesterday, even pointing out that it was Catherine's doing. What did Donovan mean by this?
Seeing her not respond for a while, Dalton realized he had overstepped and awkwardly cleared his throat, "Well, now I'll just wait for the good news in two days."
Riley smiled, "If we can sign the contract smoothly, I'll visit to thank you in person when I return."
After exchanging pleasantries, they hung up.
Thinking about Riley's attitude when he mentioned Donovan, Dalton felt puzzled.
He had arranged everything so perfectly last night, creating an ideal setting for the two of them. Why did Riley's attitude towards Donovan seem unchanged?
What exactly happened between them after he left last night?
Recently, there wasn't much going on at the research institute. The only important thing was finding a herbal medicine supplier.
With Dalton's news, Riley felt relieved.
Shortly after hanging up, Dalton sent over the information on several herbal medicine suppliers in S City.
Riley and Deacon spent a day studying it and finalized a cooperation plan. The next step was to go to S City for detailed discussions.
Returning home in the evening, Riley was much more relaxed than in the past few days.
However, seeing Riley's demeanor, Landon and Winston seemed worried.
During dinner, Winston absentmindedly poked at his food and asked unhappily, "Mommy, is the research institute's issue going to be resolved?"
Riley nodded noncommittally, "Mommy will go to S City in a couple of days. If everything goes well, the issue might be resolved."
In other words, they would soon be going abroad.
Landon and Winston exchanged glances, their faces falling, "Do we have to go abroad?"
Riley didn't answer, which was a tacit agreement.
She naturally knew they were reluctant to leave Finley, and she was also reluctant to leave them.
But thinking about Donovan's aggressive behavior last night, Riley felt anxious. If they stayed, who knew what might happen next?
