Chapter 1265


    When Roxanne met Lucian’s gaze, the confidence in her eyes gradually started wavering. A long


    moment passed before she dipped her eyes and agreed softly, “Okay, I’ll do it. What do you need me to


    do?”During those few seconds when their eyes held, she searched the depths of her heart.Perhaps


    she didn’t believe that Colby would do such a thing, but given a choice between him and Lucian, her


    heart would still be biased toward the man before her.On top of that, the look in Lucian’s eyes was


    incredibly resolute.Following her agreement, Lucian’s expression eased. He told her about his n in a


    deep voice.As Roxanne listened, she nodded thoughtfully.“Will this really work? We don’t have


    concrete evidence.”Truth be told, she was still a touch hesitant after listening to the man’s n.Lucian’s


    expression turned chilly. “As long as he was the one behind it, he would definitely feel guilty in such a


    situation. Even if not, he’ll be afraid of dying!”Upon hearing that, Roxanne fell silent for a few seconds.


    Yet in the end, she still relented.She took out her phone and gave Colby a call, informing him that she


    would be making a trip to the research institute tomorrow.On the other end of the phone, Colby readily


    agreed without a trace of oddity in his voice.After she had hung up the phone, doubts again surfaced


    within her.If it was truly his doing, how could he have hidden it so well? Could it be that… we’ve really


    misunderstood him?As though discerning the misgivings within her, Lucian lifted his hand and ced it


    on hers. His voice was calm and steady. “Trust me. If it really wasn’t him, you can also rest


    assured.”Pursing her lips, Roxanne bobbed her head.That night, she didn’t sleep a wink. No matter


    what, she couldn’t ept that a partner with whom she had worked together for many years turned out


    to be the culprit who almost killed her.Her only hope was that she would obtain an answer


    tomorrow.Early the following morning, Lucian was already seated in the living room when Roxanne


    went downstairs.She hadn’t slept well, so she was somewhat dazed. At the sight of him, she spaced


    out for a few seconds before asking in a murmur, “Are we going over right now?”At her wan look,


    Lucian’s gaze darkened. “We’ll go over as soon as possible when you’ve had breakfast. We can’t give


    him any breathing room.”If it was really Colby behind the incident, he’s exceedingly meticulous. With


    just a bit of breathing room, it’ll be enough time for him to do many things.Roxanne nodded with a


    heavy heart. After eating some food, she bid Archie, Benny, and Este farewell before getting into


    Lucian’s car to head to the research institute.By the time they arrived at the research institute, Colby


    was already there, busy with something or other.The instant he saw Roxanne and Lucian appearing


    together, his expression stiffened for a heartbeat. “Dr. Jarvis, Mr. Farwell, why did you bothe


    together? You should’ve told me in advance.”“Does Dr. Jarvis need to tell you before returning to the


    research institute to work?” Lucian retorted unceremoniously.At once, Colby froze, the smile on his face


    stained with a hint of guilt.Sighing inwardly, Roxanne said to Colby, “Please bring me to theb for a


    look. I can’t shake off the feeling that there was some problem with the experiment that day.”At that


    comment, even greater guilt swamped Colby.He hade over early in the morning to go over


    everything on theboratory counter and rece the medicine he switched with a bottle of the same


    size to prevent discovery.Unexpectedly, Roxanne and Lucian had arrived before he could do so.Worse


    still, Roxanne was requesting to reconduct the experiment.This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
