Despite her reluctance, Estella knew that they would definitely be frequent visitors henceforth since her father was pursuing Roxanne. Thus, she obediently slid off the couch and sweetly bid Roxanne farewell before leaving with Lucian. Only when Lucian’s car had driven into the distance did Roxanne turn back around and return to the mansion with Archie and Benny.The two boys spent the whole day playing and worrying about the adults’ matters, so they started yawning incessantly now that things had settled down.It was already pretty late, so Roxanne had them go in and rest while she went to the study.As the top prestigious family in the medical field in the country, the Damaris family attracted much attention despite having gone into seclusion for many years.Consequently, the research institute established this time promptly came to light as soon as it was completed.When it came to the collaboration this time, the Damaris family didn’t plan on keeping a low profile. Instead, they

Meanwhile, Roxanne had delegated Madilyn to pick the children up to Madilyn as she promptly headed to the meeting. No sooner had she stepped out the door than she saw Jack’s car at the entrance.At the sight of her, he alighted from the car and took a look behind her. Feeling slightly disappointed, he inquired, “Are the children still at school?”Roxanne nodded. “I got a friend of mine to pick them up. Is there a reason why you want to see them, Mr. Damaris?”Jack casually nodded. “I’ve brought them some gifts. But since they’re not around, let’s just forget it. I’ll personally hand them over the next time I see the boys.”The fact that he had prepared presents for them surprised Roxanne, for she didn’t expect him to be so attentive.“Since you have gotten them the presents, it’s only right you hand them to the boys yourself.” Roxanne pursed her lips into a smile upon regaining her senses.With that, she turned around and headed toward her car.She had barely taken a step when Jack’s

The next morning, while Roxanne was having breakfast with the children before sending them to school, the doorbell suddenly rang. The ring caused Roxanne and the boys to exchange glances as the same thought popped into their minds—Lucian and Estella were there.After all, both of them usually dropped by at that hour.Without a second thought, Roxanne got up and opened the door.She was subsequently greeted by the sight of her best friend looking all anxious.“Did something happen?” A sinking feeling crept into her heart.The frowning Madilyn stretched her head to look at the children—who were busy eating—before pulling Roxanne out the door.Cognizant that it was something the children weren’t supposed to know, Roxanne followed the former to the yard. “What’s wrong?”“Did you see the news in the morning?” Madilyn sounded exceptionally grim.Hearing that, Roxanne shook her head in response as she was clueless.As Lysa was held back by something at home and couldn’t come to work for the

As the hubbub got closer, Lucian soon entered Roxanne’s field of vision, spotting a stern expression. Roxanne stared at the man before her in astonishment. “Why are you here?”His formal outfit suggested that he was just in a meeting, yet his tie appeared loose as though it had been tugged slightly.Upon hearing her query, Lucian’s expression turned icy. “If you can come, why can’t I?”After saying that, he shot her a look while suppressing his anger before turning to face the reporters behind him, his cold eyes swept across their faces. “If you have any questions, I can answer on her behalf.”The crowd shuddered at his gaze, and everyone turned to look at one another. No one dared to say a word for some time.Given Lucian’s status, if they said something wrong that day, they might lose their jobs.No one wanted to face that kind of repercussion.Lucian frowned and grabbed the wrist of the woman behind him before glancing at the crowd in front of him. “If there are no questions, I’m

That very night, the Queen family announced that Roxanne was the one who had cured Alfred’s sickness, resulting in the latter nominating her as a candidate for the Damaris family’s project. The internet went abuzz right after that.In a short span of time, those who were initially against Roxanne now sided with her, although there were some who still questioned her ability.Roxanne was astounded to suddenly receive such an update before going to bed.She had once thought of asking Alfred to help clear the air, but she also didn’t want to involve him in the whole ordeal.Yet, the Queen family had decided to help her voluntarily.Thanks to that, the situation was now far more controlled compared to during the day, even if some remained doubtful of her.Not wanting to disrupt Alfred’s quiet time, Roxanne decided to dial Jonathan’s number.The latter had just finished taking care of his family’s PR errands when he answered Roxanne’s call.“I just saw the announcement made by your family.
