Chapter 718
Chapter 718 Surprised She Is Willing To Apologize
Despite her reluctance, Este 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 ying and worrying about the adults’ matters, so they started
yawning incessantly now that things had settled down.
It was already prettyte, 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 coboration this time, the Damaris family didn’t n on keeping a low profile.
Instead, they would be publicizing the list of their coborators in the next few days.
By then, that list would not only represent the coborators of the Damaris family, but it would also
signify the Damaris family pointing out the top doctors in the country to the ordinary people in Chanaea.
As one of the members on that list, Roxanne had to work all the harder to improve her medical skills so
that she wouldn’t disappoint anyone.
While she was poring over medical books, her phone at the side rang all of a sudden.
She nced at it, only to see that it was a call from Jack.
Hence, she answered the call without hesitation. “Is something the matter that you’re calling at this
hour, Mr. Damaris?”
Jack massaged his brows, sounding a touch solemn. “Do you still remember the daughter of the
Hightower family back then, Ms. Jarvis? I mean, the woman who railed at you while in a drunken state.”
Upon hearing that, Roxannebed through her memories before she finally recalled the person in
question.
Almost all her focus had been upied by Lucian and the project recently, so she would have long
since cast that woman to the back of her mind if Jack didn’t mention her.
“Yes, I remember her. Why?” she queried in puzzlement.
“It was because of this matter that my grandfather suddenly called me home this afternoon. He asked
me to help contact you, iming that Jessica Hightower would like to apologize to you in person. What
do you think? If you don’t want to go, I can turn it down for you,” Jack uttered.
Roxanne wavered for a long moment.
ording to what he said earlier, this is Old Mr. Damaris’ wish. While I think there’s no need for us to
meet, I naturally have to show the old man some respect.

On the other end of the phone, Jack seemingly discerned her thoughts. In a deep voice, he added,
“You don’t need to worry about my grandfather. He won’t doubt your capabilities because of such an
irrelevant matter.”
Roxanne smiled gratefully at his reassurance. Then, she answered calmly, “It’s okay. If Ms. Hightower
is sincere about apologizing, I don’t mind meeting her. Who knows, we can be friends.”
Never having expected her to agree so readily, Jack was stunned for a few seconds. Subsequently, he
warned with a frown, “Forget about making friends with her. I’m already surprised she’s willing to
apologize, considering her temperament. I’m afraid the meeting this time won’t be that pleasant.”
Roxanne had only interacted with Jessica once, so she didn’t understand her all that well.
Her heart grew heavy when she heard Jack’s remark, but still, she found it necessary to do Hector that
favor. “Thank you for the warning, Mr. Damaris. I’ll be careful when meeting her.”
The Damaris family would be publicizing the list soon, so she didn’t want to start any unnecessary
trouble.
Jack grunted in acknowledgment. The two of them then bid each other good night before hanging up.
