Chapter 447
Roxanne knew absolutely nothing about the two men‘s thoughts.
During the drive to the restaurant, she smilingly asked Larry, “Why did you suddenly decide to ask me
out for lunch today? And did you just return from Summerbank?”
Larry nodded nonchntly. “I just returnedst night. I only boarded the flight after secing Mr. Lynch off.
It was already midnight by the time Inded.”
Recalling the time he sent her the message, Roxanne surmised that he had texted her mere moments
after disembarking the ne.
I wonder what important matter he has to tell me.
“Mr. Lynch told me to convey his regards to you and asked whether the issue at the research institute
has been resolved,” Larry stated.
The smile on Roxanne‘s face widened when she heard that Gerald remembered her. “It‘s all thanks to
you and Mr. Lynch that night. Those medicinal herb suppliers were initially hesitant, but they respected
Mr. Lynch, so they readily agreed after he said a few words.”
Larry inclined his head a fraction. “I‘m d to hear that the matter has been resolved. I‘m just worried
that Mrs. Farwell will make things difficult for you again in the future.”
Throughout it all, he had found things very much unfair on her behalf.
He could somewhat guess the reason Sonya was targeting Roxanne, reckoning that she resented the
latter for leaving without a word back then and getting so familiar with Lucian at present.
In his opinion, however, Roxanne was the victim. Furthermore, she wasn‘t the one who wanted to have
so much contact with the man right then.
Rather than wasting her time on Roxanne, he felt that Sonya would be better served
to keep a closer eye on Lucian.
He really wanted to help Roxanne, but he wasn‘t the head of the Morrison family. Besides, the Morrison
family was no match for the Farwell family, so his hands were tied even if he wanted to help.
Fortunately, the matter had been resolved.
At the mention of Sonya, Roxanne‘s heart felt heavy. “I don‘t know either, but I‘ve already done my
utmost best to keep myself out of her line of sight. Hopefully, she‘ll
forget all about me.”
It‘s particrly true at present when I‘ve got a rare chance to attend a medical consultation with the
Damaris family. Later, I still want topete for the opportunity to coborate with them. If I were to
lose the chance because of her interference, I really wouldn‘t know what I‘d do in retaliation.
When Larry glimpsed the worry on her face, a sh of regret flitted across his eyes. He felt remorseful
for bringing up such a sore point.
The car plunged into a brief silence.
A whileter, Roxanneposed herself and changed the subject nonchntly. “Oh yes, Larry, is
something the matter that you asked me out for lunch all of a sudden today?”
After all, thest time we dined together was when he invited me to Bellridge to attend the medical
conference together back then. I wonder what it is this time.Original content from N?velDrama.Org.
Hearing that, Larry put away his wandering thoughts and went straight to business. “You‘ve been
staying abroad all these years, so I don‘t know whether you‘ve heard of the Damaris family. It‘s
considered the leading prestigious family in traditional medicine, but it has recently retreated behind the
scenes and rarely made any appearances. On the whole, it‘s a very mysterious family.”
Hmm, it‘s the Damaris family again. This is the second time I‘ve heard someone speaking of ti Damaris
familytely.
Roxanne was a touch puzzled. “I‘ve heard of it previously, and I‘ve always had much interest in the
Damaris family‘s ancient medicine books. When I was abroad, I had hoped that I‘d be so fortunate to
have the opportunity to visit them, but I never had that opportunity. But I heard that they‘ll be having a
medical consultation soon.”
The instant her words rang out, Larry arched an eyebrow and nced at her in surprise. I wonder
where she got that news.
“This is precisely what I want to speak to you about today.”
