Chapter: Bound by Business: A Joint AnnouncementA hint of amusement flashed across Lucian’s eyes when he saw how Roxanne wanted to deny it but was hesitant to speak.

She doesn’t like anything too extravagant.” The person nodded repeatedly and even praised Roxanne, “Mrs. Farwell is a natural beauty. She’s gorgeous even without makeup. You two are simply a perfect match, Mr. Farwell!”Roxanne did not let the remark get to her. He probably praised Aubree the same way when she came for styling a few months ago.The head of Neon Boutique took two hours to style Roxanne and Lucian.He fixed Roxanne’s cascading locks behind her ear with a gleaming pearl hairpin and gifted her a pair of pearl earrings. In addition to presenting her with subtle yet sophisticated makeup, he also attired her in a snowy white slim-fitted blazer with a corresponding skirt in the same tone, endowing her with a delicate and refined appearance.As for Lucian, he deftly combed his hair back

Ultimately, the herbs were for the research institute, and they were not sure what she would think about the involvement of the Queen and Farwell families.Noticing their expressions, Roxanne replied with amusement, “I don’t have any issue with that. We wouldn’t be able to secure the suppliers without the help from both of you anyway.”Any solution was a good solution as long as it could help the research institute.Hearing that, both men heaved a sigh of relief.“Let’s hold a press conference in the afternoon, then!” Jonathan said.Roxanne was stunned. “What’s the press conference for?”Jonathan replied helplessly, “An opportunity to collaborate with Farwell Group doesn’t come by every day. Obviously, those medicinal herb suppliers would want everyone to know about it. However, they won’t be attending the press conference. It will only be the three of us.”Lucian lowered his gaze to look at the woman and said, “If you don’t like t

Chapter: Business Boundaries: Negotiations, Relationships, and CompromisesThey fooled around in the bathroom, and when Lucian finally slowed down, Roxanne was so tired that she was about to faint. Lucian carried her to the bed, and they continued going at it until the wee hours of the morning.Roxanne woke up feeling as though her body was on the verge of crumbling down.The space beside her was empty. She had no idea where Lucian had gone to.As she endured the pain and got up, the thought of sleeping in different rooms came to her mind once more.“You’re up?”Lucian suddenly opened the door and came in.That shocked her so much that her waist gave way, and she nearly toppled onto the ground.He strode over and pulled her into his arms before she fell.Roxanne was clad in a low-necked nightgown, which he had helped her change into yesterday.Her movement caused her collar to open slightly, revealing her cleavage along with the marks that Lucian had left the previous night.Just one look was enough to make him react.At first, Roxanne was relieved when he

Chapter: Family Trials: Struggles, Support, and ResilienceMeanwhile, Lucian pulled his car into the driveway of the Farwell main residence. The butler was quick to welcome him politely. “Mr. Farewell.”“Where’s my mom?” Lucian asked in an icy tone.The butler answered, “Mrs. Farwell has just finished her dinner, and she’s now enjoying coffee in the living room.”Lucian nodded and gestured to the butler not to trail behind him as he went inside.He walked in to see his mother seated on the couch and sipping coffee while watching television.“What brings you here?”Sonya turned around when she heard footsteps approaching from the door.The moment she saw Lucian, a strange look flashed across her eyes. She knew the boys must have complained about her to their father.Lucian stormed toward her, grabbed the remote control, and turned off the television.Sonya’s face darkened instantly. “So, are you here to interrogate me?”“Why did you leave Archie and Benny at the amusement park this afternoon?” Lucian asked expressionlessly.Frowning, Sonya de

However, she held herself back from investigating more, especially in Lucian’s presence. After dinner, she intended to take the children outside, but Lucian had other plans. “I wonder how are things with Jonathan. How about you call him and find that out?”Upon deliberation, Roxanne decided to prioritize the matter of the medicinal herb supplier and dialed Jonathan’s number.I can still probe the little ones for more information during bedtime.With that, she headed to the study to make the phone call.Jonathan was caught off guard when he received the call, thinking that Lucian wanted Roxanne to urge him to hasten the process.

Archie and Benny returned to their senses and composed themselves. However, they still looked dejected when they nodded at her.Seeing the expressions on her brothers’ faces, Estella approached them with a straight face. “Did Grandma say something harsh to your guys again?”Estella could tell Archie and Benny were unhappy.Archie smiled at her and said, “No. She merely told me to take good care of you.” He then changed the topic. “It’s late. Why aren’t Daddy and Mommy back yet?”Estella got distracted and stared at the main entrance the moment Archie mentioned their parents.When Catalina was done preparing dinner, she noticed the kids weren’t as cheerful and lively as usual.
