    Chapter 911 Try My Best


    Colby’s face was full of concern when he answered, “Nothing much. It’s just that I thought you would be


    in a bad mood, considering what had happened.”


    Roxanne froze for a few seconds before shing a helpless smile. I trusted all my colleagues in the


    research institute, but I ended up getting stabbed in the back. Anyone would be as moody as me if they


    were in my shoes.


    “Jason is an old-timer in the research institute. I also didn’t expect him to do something so foolish.”


    Colby followed her into the office and uttered apologetically, “If I had known, I would’ve kept an eye on


    him yesterday.”


    Roxanne sat on her chair dejectedly and said, “It has nothing to do with you. If I were in your shoes, I


    wouldn’t have expected him to do something like that either.”


    At that moment, all she wanted to know was the identity of the person who sent Jason the email.


    As Colby was taking a seat opposite her, he was observing her expression silently. “I wonder what the


    mastermind’s motive is. Coincidentally, the storage room that Jason burned down stored Herbscape


    Group’s medicinal herbs.”


    Roxanne’s heart skipped a beat when she heard those words because she suddenly realized


    something.


    “It’s so weird. Who else would know about Jason’s son apart from the people in the research institute? I


    can’t believe the mastermind ended up using that against Jason,” Colby continued.


    He was hinting at the fact that someone had gone to great lengths to destroy Herbscape Group’s batch


    of medicinal herbs.


    Upon saying that, Colby stared intently at Roxanne’s face to see if he could glean some information out


    of her expression.


    Although Roxanne’s heart was racing, she acted calm andposed. “I’ve already told someone to


    investigate the email address, so I should hear back from that person soon. Let’s talk about it


    afterward.”


    Colby got nothing out of her expression, so he ended up frowning in annoyance.


    Seeing that, Roxanne forced a smile and said, “Thank you for your concern, Dr. Galloway. I’m


    exhausted. I’ll need you to coordinate the research institute today.”


    Colby nodded nonchntly. “Okay.”


    Roxanne thought Colby would leave her office after that, but he didn’t seem like he was leaving


    anytime soon.


    Baffled, she asked, “Is something else the matter?”


    Colby seemed troubled when he asked, “Now that Herbscape Group’s medicinal herbs are gone, how


    do you n on salvaging the situation?”


    Roxanne felt a headacheing when he mentioned those medicinal herbs. That’s one of the reasons


    why I’m so angry. That batch of medicinal herbs is very important for the project. Since it’s very rare in


    Chanaea, we had to take the risk and retrieve the medicinal herbs before Herbscape Group got sealed


    up. Yet, everything has turned to ashes. As for what to do next, I’ll have to discuss it with Jack.


    Obviously, the research institute has to be responsible for losing the medicinal herbs in the fire. It


    seems like I owe Jack an apology.


    Just when her temple was throbbing, Colby’s voice rang out once again.


    “If you need help, I think I can figure something out to soften the blow.”


    Roxanne suddenly came back to her senses when she heard that. “Do you know how to find those


    medicinal herbs?”


    Colby nodded slightly. “I’ll try my best.”

    At that, Roxanne gave him a doubtful nce. “That batch of medicinal herbs is rare because we could


    barely find it on Chanaea’s supply channels. If it’s too tough of a task for you, just forget about it.”


    Colby’s gaze dimmed when he saw Roxanne doubting his capability. “I’ve been in Horington for so


    many years, so I have some connections. Don’t worry about it.”
