    Chapter 809 Deteriorating Rtionship


    After giving Lucian an indifferent nod, Jonathan looked at his friend in a thoughtful manner. “I heard that Dr. Jarvis has not only


    participated in the coboration between Damaris Group and Herbscape Group, but thetter has also offered her the role of


    technical advisor. | wonder what her thoughts about the matter are.”


    That was the first time Lucian had heard about it. His heart clenched, and his already gloomy expression darkened further. “I


    don’t know.”


    He had thought that Roxanne would be more cautious after he had revealed to her how Jack had snatched Herbscape Group


    away from him the day before.


    Yet little did he expect Herbscape Group to directly approach Roxanne to be their technical advisor. As the possibility of her


    agreeing to it crossed his mind, Lucian couldn’t help but feel incensed.


    Jonathan was surprised by the drastic change in Lucian’s expression. “Lucian, have you not seeded in your pursuit of Dr.


    Jarvis?”


    When Lucian simply shot him a nce without denying it, Jonathan couldn’t help feeling what a shame it was.


    With how eligible he is, he could’ve had any woman he wanted. Instead, not only he insisted on keeping his eye on Roxanne, but


    he also failed in his pursuit despite all the effort he expended.


    Jonathan cleared his throat, suppressed the surprise within him, andmented with a smile, “Well, you were at fault six years


    ago. It only makes sense for Dr. Jarvis to resent you for it.”Text ? by N0ve/lDrama.Org.


    The mere mention of the past made Lucian scowl.


    The two times Roxanne had gotten drunk had shown him how much hurt he had inflicted upon her six years ago.


    He no longer felt the right toin about her resentment toward him and the distance she had ced between them.


    All he wanted to do now was to make amends.


    Having innocently assumed that Lucian had made progress in his pursuit, Jonathan had simply wanted to tease his friend.


    But to his surprise, he ended up rubbing salt in Lucian’s wound.


    In response to Lucian’s reaction, Jonathan scratched his nose awkwardly. “Don’t worry about it. Even if you have made a


    mistake, there’s always a chance to redeem yourself. As long as you seize the opportunity, Dr. Jarvis will surely forgive you.”


    “How do | redeem myself?”


    Jonathan was stunned. He didn’t expect Lucian to take his casual remark seriously.


    How do you redeem yourself? How would | know what happened between the two of you?


    Since he had inadvertently brought up the difficult topic, Jonathan had no choice but to force himself toe up with a solution.


    “Since you hurt Dr. Jarvis six years ago and want her to forgive you for it, you obviously need to let her feel that you love her.”


    “But | already did as you said.”


    Lucian had been given her flowers and confessing his feelings for her. On top of that, he even had the three children help him


    behind the scenes.


    Yet, Roxanne refused to believe in his feelings for her. In fact, when they had gone their separate ways in the morning, he could


    feel that their rtionship seemed to have deteriorated.


    The worst part was Lucian didn’t even know what the problem was.


    Jonathan almost choked on himself.


    When ites to pursuing women, | am still superior to this hard-hearted friend of mine despite myck of experience. Also, |


    have the advantage of having a sister. All this while, Frieda has always been very popr and has plenty of suitors.


    With that thought in mind, Jonathan began to rack his brains to recall what those men had done while courting his sister.
