    Chapter 1581 I Agree With You


    “As far as I know, Mr. Damaris'' vision for this project was to give patients a fighting chance. I don''t think


    there''s anything wrong with that.” Despite her efforts to exin, some team leaders continued to


    whisper among themselves, casting suspicious looks in her direction.


    The conference room was so quiet that she could hear one of the leaders whisper.


    “If anyone has any concerns, please don''t hesitate to voice them. I''m here to listen,” Roxanne said


    courteously while looking at the team leader.


    The team leader turned around and met her gaze. After a few seconds of silence, he expressed his


    doubts. “Ms. Jarvis, you were the only one who negotiated with Damaris Group, and we had been kept


    in the dark throughout the negotiation.”


    Roxanne lowered her gaze slightly and responded softly, “I''ll exin everything if you wish to know


    what transpired.”


    She felt a little uneasy as she looked at the faces before her.


    Undoubtedly, she had acted unterally and set the price without consulting her team.


    After witnessing the change in Jack''s behavior, Roxanne realized she could not tolerate how apathetic


    medical practitioners were toward patients.


    Everyone fixed their gazes on her, waiting for her to exin.


    Roxanne gathered her courage and said, “I proposed a price of a hundred twenty for the medicine, but


    Mr. Damaris insisted on three hundred.”


    A heavy silence settled in the room after she uttered those words.


    Roxanne could see how serious they were, and it seemed they began to understand the picture.


    “Sorry, but I want to know why you set that price.” A team leader finally voiced out his doubt.


    Roxanne tried to stayposed and exined, “I want patients to be able to afford the medicine.


    Doing so might incur losses in the short term, but the long-term benefits are worth it. By doing so, we''ll


    also improve the reputation of the research institute.”


    In other words, she put the interests of patients and the research institute before her, while Jack only


    prioritized Damaris Group.


    After exining the situation, Roxanne smiled at everyone. “That''s my two cents. If my idea doesn''t sit


    well with you, and you want to bail, I won''t hold it against you. But I hope we can all keep the


    technology used to produce the medicine a secret.”

    Once again, the room fell silent, causing Roxanne to clench her hand on the table. She could not shake


    off the unease in her.


    “I agree with you.” Someone spoke up and threw his weight behind her.


    Roxanne''s eyes lit up with delight.


    The leader continued, “I appreciate your support. We''ve been putting our heart and soul into this


    research institute for so long, and what Dr. Jarvis did is also in the best interests of the organization. I


    hope her decision can take us to the next level.”


    “I agree that Mr. Damaris'' pricing is a little steep,” another team leader said.


    Everyone else then chimed in with their support for Roxanne.


    Roxanne was pleasantly surprised. “Thank you for backing me up.”


    Roxanne had thought they would side with Jack, considering how close they were to him.


    All the team leaders had somber expressions on their faces. “Dr. Jarvis, we believe in your vision. We


    want the institute to seed.”


    Roxanne let out a sigh of relief and redirected the conversation back to the matter at hand. “So, does


    anyone have any leads on the medicinal herb suppliers we can reach out to?”


    As it turned out, everyone present had been working at the research institute for many years and had


    some connections in the pharmaceutical industry.


    They immediately started brainstorming and discussing the potential medicinal herb suppliers they had


    in mind.


    Roxonne''s eyes lit up with delight.
