    Chapter 757 Please Stop The Guessing Game


    Roxanne had more to say, but Lucian interrupted her coldly before she could continue. “That has nothing to do with you, so don’t


    concern yourself with it. | know what to do.”


    Sensing the annoyance in the man’s tone, Roxanne was stunned once again. “Maybe you''ve misunderstood me, but I’m only


    worried about Essie’s condition. Your rtionship with others has nothing to do with me.”


    The woman thought Lucian got upset because he disliked her getting between Aubree and him. With that thought in mind,


    Roxanne could not help but scoff inwardly at herself.


    The anger Lucian had bottled up on his way there finally exploded after he listened to Roxanne dissociating herself from him


    repeatedly. “Of course, my business has nothing to do with you. After all, you probably only care about matters concerning Mr.


    Damaris!”


    “What''s that supposed to mean?” Roxanne was baffled when Lucian suddenly reced Aubree with her in the crosshair.


    She never expected Lucian to hold on to the matter because she thought the man would understand.


    “You''re happy working for the Damaris family''s research institute, aren’t you? | know how much you wanted to be a part of the


    project. Would you have worked that hard if their medical skills were the only reason you wanted to join them?” scoffed Lucian,


    whose eyes seemed as though they were sharp enough to see through anything.


    Roxanne furrowed her eyebrows even tighter in response, for she had no idea what the man’s words meant. “Besides their


    medical skills, what do they have that’s worth so much of my effort?”


    Having been in seclusion from the world for so many years, the Damaris family was only known for their medical skills.


    In fact, Roxanne did not even know of Jack’s existence before the medical consultation.Têxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    However, it was clear Lucian was implying that Jack was the only reason Roxanne worked so hard, which not only gave the


    woman a headache but also upset her.


    Lucian’s suspicion obviously meant that he doubted the respect Roxanne had for medical skills.


    The man was even surer that he was right when he saw how infuriated Roxanne was, so he voiced indifferently, “Your


    rtionship with Mr. Damaris is in to see, Ms. Jarvis. I''m sure there’s no need to paint the whole picture.”


    With that, Lucian looked toward the living room, intending to take Este home.


    Still, Roxanne insisted on exining herself because even though she did not n to ept Lucian, she refused to let him


    use her with that supposed reason. “Mr. Damaris and | are just friends. The few times we''ve met in public were for work. Mr.


    Damaris and Larry are both great doctors, so please stop the guessing game! | won''t cut off ties with them just because of your


    suspicion!”


    Roxanne would have to work with Jack as long as the project remained. As for Larry, the woman had been friends with him for


    many years.


    She would never cut off ties with the two men just because Lucian got jealous. However, it was undeniable that Lucian’s


    suspicion had caused her some inconvenience.


    Lucian only heard thest part of her exnation about how she would not sever ties with the two men because of him.


    The man then frowned in silence for a moment as the aura surrounding him suddenly dropped to a freezing point.


    Despite that, Roxanne stood her ground and stared the man in the eye, showing no sign of retreat.
