Chapter 1362


    Roxanne was totally unaware of the children''s involvement in Aubree''s predicament.


    Upon waking up the following morning, she wasted no time browsing the discussion online.


    Lucian''s announcement from the night before topped the trending topics, above the other popr


    topics from the day before thaty below, forgotten. The search phrases of the posts were also almost


    completely deleted.


    Roxanne deemed the matter resolved and was finally appeased.


    She was getting out of bed to prepare breakfast for the children when Jack suddenly called.


    Roxanne picked up at once, thinking it pertained to the project. “What happened, Mr. Damaris?”


    She sounded apologetic, as she feared her being the subject of tabloid gossip would affect the project.


    Jack sounded concerned on the other end. “Are you all right? I saw thements online yesterday


    and considered dropping by, but I was swamped. Now that I have some time to spare, I''m calling to


    check if thements have brought you down.”


    Roxanne froze before a feeling of warmth engulfed her heart. “Thank you for your concern, Mr.


    Damaris. I''m fine. Besides, the matter has been resolved. I''m just concerned it might affect our project.”


    Jackughed, seemingly unbothered. “I''m just d you''re okay. I got the project handled, and nothing


    will happen.”


    “Thank you for all your hard work ofte,” Roxanne said gratefully. “I''m well-rested now and will return


    to work next week.”


    “No rush. I''m not calling you for that,” Jack said, his tone mysterious. “I thought you might be feeling


    down from the incident yesterday, so I called to ask if you''d like to have a day out to feel better.”


    This offer sounds like a date.


    Frowning slightly, Roxanne rejected without hesitation, “No, thank—”


    Before she could finish speaking, Jack cut her off, “Don''t be so hasty to turn me down. Having a day


    out is the secondary reason for my asking. The first is that my grandfather wants me to take you to the


    Damaris family''s medical consultation to teach you some of our family''s medical arts while we''re there.”


    Since he had invoked Hector''s name, Roxanne could not say no.


    Besides, she became tempted by the prospect of learning the Damaris family''s secrets.


    “There is a nursing home in Jadeborough. The person in charge disappeared with the funds and left


    behind many elderly people who needed help, plus some kind-hearted staff. Despite their best


    intentions to care for the elderly, there aren''t enough funds. Some even starved to death, while others


    had a rpse.” Jack spared no detail in describing the condition of the medical consultation to her.


    “This is a mission with a lot at stake. The Damaris family is mobilizing every doctor from the project to


    Jadeborough next week to help treat the elderly. Grandpa recognizes your skill and left me repeated


    reminders to include you in this mission.”


    Then, as if worried about making her ufortable, he added, “It''ll take a little longer this time, so we


    will spend two days in Jadeborough. If you cannot spare the time, I won''t force you. I understand you


    have your own children to care for.”


    Roxanne would not turn him down at the chance to learn the Damaris family''s medical arts and to aid


    elderly people who were critically in need of medical attention. “All right, I will be there on time.”


    Jack''s eyes shed with glee. “Then I''ll be there waiting for you.”


    Roxanne promised to go without hesitation.ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
