Jack let out a cold snort. “I told you, didn’t I? I’m the only person in the world who can develop the antidote. Since you don’t believe me, why are you looking for me now? Besides, we’re both businessmen. Don’t you think you’re untrustworthy, Mr. Farwell?”
A dark glint flashed across Lucian’s eyes when he heard that. While looking at Roxanne, who was suffering in the ward, he gritted his teeth and asked, “What do you want? I can double whatever you asked for the last time around!”
“Have you only realized how dire the situation is? It’s too late now.” With an insidious look in his eyes, Jack added, “I’m sure you know I’m at fastidious person, Mr. Farwell. Since you’ve tricked me, I think you should pay the price!”
In a deep voice, Lucian replied, “As long as you give me the antidote, I’m willing to do whatever you want. I swear on Roxanne’s life!”
Jack was convinced because he knew how much Roxanne meant to Lucian. He raised his brows smugly and said, “Well, since you’ve said so, I have no reason to refuse your request.” After a brief pause, Jack continued in a meaningful tone, “After all, I’ve been looking forward to working together with Ms. Jarvis.”
Lucian didn’t want to waste time talking nonsense, so he asked, “Where are you now? I’ll go over to you!”
Jack lowered his gaze to look at the view outside the window before saying casually, “Damaris Group. I’m in my office.”
“All right. I’ll head over now. Please prepare the antidote, Mr. Damaris,” Lucian answered unhesitatingly. Right when Lucian was about to hang up the phone, Jack said, “Oh! I forgot to mention that Ms. Jarvis doesn’t have much time left. If you want to make it here in time, you must arrive within twenty minutes.” Lucian was already on the move, and he was walking when he said, “I’ll make it in time.”
Even if Jack had only given him ten minutes, Lucian would still find a way to get there on time. A frigid look flashed across Jack’s eyes when he heard Lucian agreeing to it so willingly. He added, “By the way, the elevators in my company broke down a couple of days ago. You’ll have to take the stairs later, Mr. Farwell. Remember that you must be here within twenty minutes!”
Lucian’s expression turned solemn when he heard that. However, he wasted no time in agreeing, “Do you still have other requests, Mr. Damaris? If that’s all, I’ll be on my way.”
“I guess I shouldn’t hold you up any longer. I’ll wait for you on the top floor,” Jack said smugly. With that, he hung up the phone.
While overlooking Horington, Jack imagined how disheveled Lucian would look as he climbed the stairs. He suddenly laughed out loud and said, “How dare you trick me, Lucian! I’m going to show you what it feels like to get toyed with! I’ll make you endure your humiliation in silence like a lowly being.”
Kevin grew anxious when he saw Jack behaving like a maniac. Right then, Jack turned around and asked in displeasure, “Why are you not laughing?” Kevin trembled and looked around guiltily, not knowing how to react. I can’t bring myself to laugh…
“The almighty CEO of Farwell Group is now a clown who’s getting walked all over by me! He has to do whatever I say! He knows I’m toying with him, but he doesn’t have the balls to reject me! How is that not funny?” Jack looked like an utter madman. “Laugh! When Lucian gets here later, I want you to put on a haughty look!”
Kevin knew Jack was demanding him to do so, so he had no choice but to squeeze out a smile. Jack only went back to his desk satisfyingly after seeing his assistant smile. Having gained the upper hand, Jack played with the bottle of improved antidote in his hand and waited for Lucian to arrive.
In front of him was a screen showing the surveillance camera directed at the main entrance of Damaris Group.
“Twenty minutes, Lucian. You better not be late.” Jack glanced at the time at the bottom corner of the screen before shifting his gaze back to the center of the screen and staring at it. If Lucian is late by a minute, I’ll get to torture him again! Now, he’s completely at my mercy!
Time ticked by, and over ten minutes had passed in the blink of an eye. Yet, Lucian still hadn’t appeared on the screen.
Seeing that Lucian had yet to show up, Jack became flustered once again. Why is Lucian not here yet? Is he even coming? Judging by his tone when he was on the phone with me just now, it’s safe to assume that Roxanne’s life is in danger. Besides, they can’t possibly have the antidote! Lucian has to come!
With that thought in his mind, Jack forced himself to stay calm and waited for Lucian to appear on the screen.
Jack waited for twenty-five minutes, but there was still no sign of Lucian. Jack’s face turned grim. Looks like Lucian is not coming. Earlier during our phone call, he made a solemn vow and claimed that he would be willing to do anything. but that doesn’t seem to be the case now. His feelings for Roxanne are nothing more than a joke!
“Mr. Damaris, half an hour has gone by, and Mr. Farwell isn’t here yet. Do you think I should give him a call?” asked Kevin gingerly. Jack answered coldly, “Yes.”
Kevin immediately took out his phone and called Lucian. Yet, Lucian hung up the phone without speaking a word. Kevin stared at his phone before looking up at his boss. All he saw was Jack’s contorted look.
The tense atmosphere in the office was unbearable. “Lucian! That swine! How dare he fool me again!” Jack cursed through gritted teeth. “One of these days, I’ll make sure he kneels down in front of me and beg me!”
Kevin wished that he could get away from there, but he sensed Jack looking at him. In the end, he had no choice but to ask, “Mr. Damaris, what should we do now?”
“There’s still another hour to go!” Jack raised his voice as he glanced at the time. “I don’t believe they can come up with the antidote! We shall continue to wait!”
If Lucian did not come and beg him, he would wait and receive the news of Roxanne’s demise ! Kevin secretly let out a sigh of relief when he saw Jack turn away. He then looked around the office for an excuse to get out of there.
Just as he was panicking, he saw something flying nearer and nearer to the Damaris Group building. It looked like a helicopter.
“Mr. Damaris, what do you think that is?” He quickly brought that to Jack’s attention. Naturally, Jack also noticed the helicopter that was getting nearer. He squinted his eyes for a few seconds and saw that the helicopter seemed to have the Farwell Group marking on it.
“Lucian! You’re here after all!” Jack smirked arrogantly when he saw the logo. As the helicopter disappeared from his sight, he sat down and crossed his legs.
Lucian must be worried that he cannot make it in time. That’s why he has arranged for a helicopter to send him over here! Jack knew that he was the only one who could save Roxanne! Everything was within his control!
Realizing that, Jack was exhilarated. In fact, he was willing to overlook Lucian’s tardiness. Once Lucian showed up, he would take his time and humiliate him!
Just as he was planning on ways to torture Lucian, there was a commotion outside his office door. It did not sound as if someone was knocking on the door. In fact, it sounded as if someone was trying to smash the door. Jack’s expression turned cold, and he looked at Kevin. “Go and take a look!”
Kevin was also a little shaken up when he heard the commotion outside the door. However, he had no wish to stay in the office any longer, so he did as he was told.
The moment Kevin opened the door, he came face to face with Lucian, who looked cold and austere. Standing next to Lucian were two bodyguards dressed in black who were prepared to kick the office door down.
They stopped only because Kevin opened the door. “Mr. Farwell, is this how you behave when you beg someone?”
Jack stood up slowly and eyed his visitors with a hint of caution. Nevertheless, he was feeling high and mighty at that moment.
Lucian looked at him without any expression and strolled into his office. Jack found his expression odd. He frowned and asked, “Are you planning to take it away by force?”

Most wanted moment..
Please upload more chapters
Once again,thank you for the chapters. I am so nervous about this. Aubree used to have my heart wanting to jump out of my chest, but Jack keeps it in my mouth ready to jump. What kind of monster could he be trying to kill a woman who have not wronged him. His greed and covertusness is too much, wanting to reap what he did not sow. He is a very dangerous man and should be put away from society for the rest of his miserable life. I hope he and his family will lose everything, and he never allow to practice medicine again. What a devil in disguise, a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Thanks again, please please keep the chapters coming sooner.
Oh my God! My BP raised with extreme irritation to Jack. Thank you so much for the newly shared chapters but please 🙏 🙏 more more please 🙏

Yearning for more chapters. Next…!
Very curious. It seems Roxanne and team was able to do the antidote and Roxanne is okay.
Jack will get what he deserves. More update please.
Hopefully old Mr. Lomax will have completed the antidote by the time Lucian gets there with the one for Jack. Lucian should use it to put Jack behind the bars for poisoning Roxanne.
That will finish the Damaris group due to his greed.

Jack character is questionable .how he portrayed himself first was better but out of jealousy and fire to have something ,he can’t spare the innocent Dr Jarvis.
I think ,hw should fight Mr farewell instead .

Days of the week that you will upload more chapters so we don’t have to go look a thousand times a week only to be disappointed every time. When I first started reading this book it was 3 days a week 10 chapters. What a disappointment now. If you would like to get paid as long as it’s reasonable I’m sure most of us would pay. I’m just not willing to pay every time I would pay like if I went to the book store and bought one. Please respond to your readers. The Hank you

It’s time to upload
I love this novel. Please upload more chapters.
Thanks for the chapters, but please, keep them coming I hope Lucian belts the living daylights out of the evil jack. Brilliant novel
True love works in mysterious ways. Roxanne of course could survive. Her will to survive is strong not only because of her love to the children but also to Lucian.
your readership is dwindling. People are very tired of waiting so long for every week. please just charge us 20 dollars each and release your chapters> all we really want is for Jack to get what he deserves and that Roxanne and Lucian, can finally have their family together.
where are the next chapters…you’ve never taken this long.
Did you guys relocated somewhere why is the book not updating chapters
Finalmente voltei a ler e estou CHOCADA com a maldade do Jack!!! Sempre espero o pior dele e ele sempre entrega o pior af
Lucian deveria descer o cacete nele pra ele ficar esperto e parar com essa obsessão ridicula pela Roxanne que já deixou claro que não quer nada com ele!!!
Espero que o antídoto dê certo e roxanne possa ficar bem, não suporto ver as crianças sofrendo T_T
