She was more than satisfied with the life she currently had. The only outstanding matter was Sonya’s inability to accept her and her sons. It seems that I have to work harder to make it happen!
Soon, their car came to a stop at the door of the Farwell residence. After carrying the children out of the car, Lucian and Roxanne carefully sent them back into their room.
All three of them were exhausted after the long day and didn’t wake up at all. Only after the children were settled in that the two adults returned to their room.
When Roxanne emerged from the shower and recalled Lucian’s words from the rooftop, a sense of reluctance descended upon her.
After how Lucian had ravaged her the night before and their exhausting session in the afternoon, she could still feel the soreness in her hips. However, if Lucian insists…
Just as she was concerned about her hips, Lucian emerged from the shower, causing her heart to skip a beat. “You should get some rest. The last two days have been exhausting.” Lucian came over and pecked her on her lips.
Before Roxanne could react, Lucian raised his brows slightly. “However, if you want it, I’m more than happy to satisfy you.” His words caused Roxanne’s cheeks to burn as she tried to bury herself underneath the blanket.
Soon, when the sound of the hair dryer came to a stop, Lucian pulled up the sheets from another side. Upon getting into bed, he pulled her into his arms and fell into a deep slumber.
That night, both of them had a good night’s sleep. When Roxanne woke up the next morning, she felt fully reinvigorated.
It was then that Lucian received a call from Jonathan. As Lucian was still in the bathroom, Roxanne pondered a moment before deciding to pick up. “Jonathan, what can I do for you so early in the morning?”
A look of surprise flashed across Jonathan’s face when he heard her voice. “Roxanne?”
Before she could react, he asked tactfully, “Is this a bad time? Where’s Lucian?” Without thinking, Roxanne replied softly, “He’s showering. What is it?”
Showering? As his imagination began to run wild, Jonathan quickly suppressed his thoughts and explained earnestly, “I just wanted to let you know that the first batch of medicinal herbs has arrived. I’m currently at the port. Do you want to come over to examine them?”
The news surprised Roxanne. “That’s quick.” She had thought that it would take another two to three days.
Jonathan didn’t waste the opportunity to put in a good word for his good friend. “Lucian knew that you needed it urgently. That was why he bought the first batch under his own name before the contract was signed. He wanted to make sure you received the supplies as soon as possible.” Roxanne was naturally touched by the gesture..
When Lucian coincidentally emerged from the bathroom, Roxanne intended to hand the phone over to him. However, he shook his head and put it on speaker instead.
Jonathan continued, “To be honest, Lucian expended much effort to get this batch of herbs for you. His feelings for you are true, Roxanne. You must treasure him. It’s rare to find a man as wonderful as he is!”
Roxanne almost burst into laughter at Jonathan’s exaggeration. However, Lucian’s presence caused her to quickly suppress the urge to do so. Lucian, who couldn’t bear to hear another word of it, barked, “Get to the point.”
Jonathan paused abruptly before saying sheepishly, “I’ve already asked Roxanne if she wants to come down here. I’m currently waiting at the port.”
When Lucian turned to Roxanne, she related what Jonathan had told her earlier. “I’ll go over to check the goods. You send the children to kindergarten.”
Lucian had initially wanted to drive her to the port but decided against it when he thought about the children. “In that case, I’ll pick you up in the evening.”
Roxanne agreed with a smile. After both of them had breakfast, Lucian dropped the children off at the kindergarten, while Roxanne headed to the port.
Jonathan, who had been waiting there, began complaining again the moment he saw her. Both of them took stock of the medicinal herbs while making idle chatter with each other.
Once they were sure everything was in order, the next step was to send the herbs to the research institute. There, they would be used in small batches to ensure that the final product was consistent with what was produced by Damaris Group.
After sending the medicinal herbs over, Jonathan took his leave, as the rest of the processes were considered industrial secrets. Upon his departure, Roxanne threw herself back into her work.
Linda urged Roxanne to have her lunch after being swamped with work the entire morning. Since she was dealing with a huge shipment of medicinal herbs, Roxanne thought of having a quick bite nearby before resuming her work.
A series of honks sounded just as she left the premises. However, she did not bother about the noises made and kept walking ahead, which resulted in the car honking at her repeatedly.
It took Roxanne a while to realize the honks were directed at her. She turned around and saw a car parked not too far from the entrance to the research institute. The window was half-opened, revealing Jack’s face.
“Ms. Jarvis.” Jack grinned at her the moment she looked in his direction. Frowning, Roxanne had no intention of approaching him. “I’m sorry, Mr. Damaris. It’s a busy day at work. Please excuse me.”
With that, she turned and headed toward the restaurant. Suddenly, the honks rang out again as Jack maneuvered the vehicle to trail her from the back.
“Ms. Jarvis, let’s preserve our relationship even if there’s no business deal between us. Aren’t we friends? Can’t you spare me a few minutes?”
Jack’s voice and car honks rang out at the same time, making heads turn as people walked out from the research institute.
Roxanne dreaded the unnecessary attention. Hence, she stopped and said, “What is it that you want to tell me, Mr. Damaris? You can say it now.”
A cold glint flashed across Jack’s eyes when she conceded. He opened the car door and said, “Come on in. Let’s chat inside.”
Roxanne stood rooted to the spot and kept her guard up. Jack smirked and said, “Are you worried that I might do something to you in broad daylight, Ms. Jarvis? Come on, we’re both people of status. Furthermore, I still have to be mindful of the Damaris family’s reputation.”
With that, he opened the car door wider to let her examine the interior. He added, “I just can’t stand the heat outside. It’s much more comfortable to talk in the car. After all, I can’t finish what I want to say in a few words.”
Roxanne seized the opportunity and checked his car thoroughly. She did not take the passenger seat. Instead, she entered through the back door and sat by herself. The air conditioner was switched on, so she had to close both the car door and window.
“You can speak now,” she requested indifferently. Hiding the coldness in his eyes, Jack glanced at the aroma lamp underneath the passenger seat and put on a regretful expression.
“Ms. Jarvis, you acted really fast. I thought of looking for you in a couple of days, and perhaps we could still collaborate in one way or another. Little did I expect you would have signed a contract with Farwell Group and Queen Group already.”
A layer of resentment and displeasure laced his tone. Knitting her brows, Roxanne stared at the pair of eyes looking back at her through the rearview mirror. “You might want to ask around and find out what hefty losses the research institute has suffered due to this incident, Mr. Damaris.”
The factory had to shut down the production of medicines due to lack of supplies. Due to that reason, it demanded an exorbitant compensation from the research institute for delaying its production.
Lately, Lucian suggested producing the medicines in one of Farwell Group’s factories for free, but Roxanne rejected his offer. She felt that she had received tremendous help and support from Lucian. Therefore, she did not want to rely on him further.
An imperceptible trace of frustration flashed past Jack’s eyes. “There’s no need to be like that, Ms. Jarvis. It was only a matter of time before the research institute suffered losses. Honestly, up till now, I still don’t agree with the price you set for the medicine.”
Ironically, she no longer felt anything toward his belittling remarks. “Your acceptance or rejection has nothing to do with me, Mr. Damaris. This is because I’m not collaborating with Damaris Group. Should you want to insist on your pricing, please go ahead and launch a new medicine yourself.”

Thanks for the chapters, please keep it coming. Jack, Sonya and that idiot Freida are such bad characters. Freida is a traitor, I hope she meets her demise sooner than later.
Oh no. I hope that Roxanne and Lucien don’t get trap in Shawn,s I’ll demise. Freda should be punished severely.
I hope Jack does not hurt Roxanne.
Roxanne need to tell Lucien about the boys.
Is this the end of the story of Lucian and Roxanne?
This story is not ending any moment soon
Jack Jack Jack
A very riveting story
I hope the evil intentions of Shawn and Jack against Roxanne and Lucien fails.
More chapters please
I am wondering what evil tricks Jack is planning now. I believe he is up to no good, Sonya is also up to no good with that family friend daughter she invited for a visit. As for Frieda she is very stupid. Aubree turned her into a criminal,and Shawn will play her like a fiddle. I hope she is caught before she destroys her family’s business. I also hope it’s not Aubree with her new face that is visiting Sonya. Sonya will stop at nothing to cause problems for Roxanne and her sons. I love the blissful relationship between L and R, keep the deranged troublemakers out of their lives.
Great progression of the story involving all the characters. Well done Author.
Quite an intriguing story. More chapters soonest please
Hopefully jack will give up but so far those with extreme behaviors in this story, Sonya, Frieda, Aubree, and Jack don’t seem to learn from their mistakes. Good read more chapters soon

Sonya is trouble wrapped in a gift package. Please don’t keep me in suspense for too long. Upload more chapters as soon as possible, please and thanks.
Aubree is out of the picture now there’s new character that will give a headache for sure . I think Roxanne should consider telling Lucian about the boys statuses, so that Lucian could protect them fully.
The story could have ended long time ago. With this prolonging we might still hanging around up to chapter 2000.
