    Chapter 1544 Pure Intentions


    Roxanne could not help but feel relieved at that realization.


    She was d that she had kept her guard up against Jack the whole time. Also...


    “Luckily, I had asked for your advice earlier. Otherwise, it''s very likely that I would have fallen into


    Jack''s trap.”

    The woman shed a grateful smile at Lucian, who could not be happier that she had finally seen


    Jack''s true colors.


    “You can consult me anytime you want. I won''t charge you for it,” Lucian said with a suggestive look in


    his eyes.


    A blush spread across Roxanne''s cheeks when she realized what he meant, and she pushed him away


    at once.


    Looking at the woman''s shy expression, Lucian smiled. Not wanting to embarrass her further, he


    changed the topic to something more serious.


    “It could be a good thing if Damaris Group really decides not to go ahead with the coboration.


    Although it''s true that their herbs are of a higher quality than what the others have in the market right


    now, those are, after all, still normal herbs without any special medicinal properties. Even without the


    Damaris family, the research institute can still acquire good-quality herbs at a higher price from other


    medicinal herbpanies to manufacture the drug. That way, the issue regarding the supply of herbs


    would be solved.”


    The moment Lucian started discussing serious matters, Roxanne breathed a sigh of relief and listened


    attentively.


    “As for sales channels, that''s even less of a problem. Most medicinal herbpanies have online


    sales tforms and a regr customer base. As long as you have a good product, people would


    naturally buy it. If you are still worried, I can get Farwell Group''s technology department to build a


    specialized online medical sales tform for you.”


    Roxanne was moved upon hearing that.


    It was well known that Farwell Group''s technology team was one of the best in the world. Roxanne felt


    that it would be a waste of talent to get them to create the sales tform for her.


    She smiled at Lucian appreciatively and replied, “Got it. If Damaris Group refuses to ept our


    proposal, I will just look for anotherpany to coborate with.”


    Lucian spoke again after that. “However, if the coboration with the Damaris family fails, all the hard


    work that you''ve put into establishing a good rtionship with them might go to waste.”


    Taking a pause, he continued in a solemn tone, “I know that the reason you started joining those


    medical consultations was because of your interest in the Damaris family''s ancient medical arts. If your


    rtionship with them falls apart, all your efforts woulde to naught.”


    At the mention of her original intention for approaching the Damaris family, Roxanne fell into a slight


    daze. “But before that, I''ve always thought that their intentions were pure and that they truly cared


    about advancing medical treatment and care for patients...”


    She had just recognized that the Damaris family was not as altruistic as she had thought in the face of


    profit. In fact, their business was way moremercialized than she had expected.


    Rubbing the back of Roxanne''s hand, Lucian said casually, “If you think it''s a pity, you can always


    make a furtherpromise. You would just be making less money. You can treat it as paying tuition


    fees to the Damaris family. Just let me know if you need extra funding for the research.”


    Even though Roxanne was still feeling upset over the fact that the Damaris family was not who she had


    imagined them to be, she could not help but be amused by the man''s words.


    “What do you take me for? I''m indeed very curious about the Damaris family''s ancient medical arts, but


    I''ve also found out that their medical skills are not omnipotent in this period of time. Truth is, all of us


    possess different capabilities. If I really don''t get to learn from them, I can further advance my own


    skills, which might be even better.”


    Roxanne looked up at Lucian and continued with a serious expression, “Besides, I''m responsible for


    the benefits of the staff at the research institute. I have to make sure that they get what they deserve


    for their hard work and not shortchange them because of my personal motives.”


    She had just recognized that the Damaris family was not as altruistic as she had thought in the face of


    profit. In fact, their business was way moremercialized than she had expected.
