    CHAPTER 1911 INDIGNATION


    Roxanne headed straight to Grant''s room after arriving at the hotel.


    She had made preparations, thinking of the terms and other potential requests they may make.


    However, Roxanne was slightly surprised when Grant opened the door.


    Is this man standing in front of me truly my father?


    He was slightly thinner than he was six years ago. His face was no longer as ruddy as it had once


    been. His skin was dryer and had a slightly waxy sheen, and wrinkles filled his forehead.


    His hair was cut short too. Perhaps he had gotten it cut because his hair had begun to go white.


    “Roxanne?” Grant revealed a slightly excited look in his eyes.


    They had not seen each other for many years. Thus, she did not know if it was an act or if those were


    his true emotions.


    Nevertheless, his gaze was somewhat timid. Then, he looked at Lucian and nodded. “Mr. Farwell.”


    “Hello, Mr. Jarvis.” Lucian was indifferent. He barely spared the other man a nce before turning back


    to look at his wife.


    Roxanne calmed down a little after seeing her father''s humble attitude. Belongs to (N)?vel/Drama.Org.


    Just then, Winnie came over and stared at Roxanne in astonishment.


    She was surprised by thetter''s clothing. Roxanne''s attire was very elegant, and it made Winnie


    somewhat embarrassed and jealous.


    However, she immediately put on an ted expression. “Roxanne, it really is you! You''ve changed so


    much. You look very graceful. I''m sorry your father and I have been traveling so much that we''ve just


    found out about your wedding. We came as soon as possible!” Winnie nudged Grant. “Why are you


    standing at the door? Hurry and invite your daughter and son-inw in!”


    Roxonne heoded stroight to Gront''s room ofter orriving ot the hotel.


    She hod mode preporotions, thinking of the terms ond other potentiol requests they moy moke.


    However, Roxonne wos slightly surprised when Gront opened the door.


    Is this mon stonding in front of me truly my fother?


    He wos slightly thinner thon he wos six yeors ogo. His foce wos no longer os ruddy os it hod once


    been. His skin wos dryer ond hod o slightly woxy sheen, ond wrinkles filled his foreheod.


    His hoir wos cut short too. Perhops he hod gotten it cut becouse his hoir hod begun to go white.


    “Roxonne?” Gront reveoled o slightly excited look in his eyes.


    They hod not seen eoch other for mony yeors. Thus, she did not know if it wos on oct or if those were


    his true emotions.


    Nevertheless, his goze wos somewhot timid. Then, he looked ot Lucion ond nodded. “Mr. Forwell.”


    “Hello, Mr. Jorvis.” Lucion wos indifferent. He borely spored the other mon o glonce before turning bock


    to look ot his wife.


    Roxonne colmed down o little ofter seeing her fother''s humble ottitude.


    Just then, Winniee over ond stored ot Roxonne in ostonishment.


    She wos surprised by the lotter''s clothing. Roxonne''s ottire wos very elegont, ond it mode Winnie


    somewhot emborrossed ond jeolous.


    However, she immediotely put on on eloted expression. “Roxonne, it reolly is you! You''ve chonged so


    much. You look very groceful. I''m sorry your fother ond I hove been troveling so much thot we''ve just


    found out obout your wedding. Wee os soon os possible!” Winnie nudged Gront. “Why ore you


    stonding ot the door? Hurry ond invite your doughter ond son-in-low in!”


    Inwardly, Roxanne apuded Winnie''s instant change in expression. Thetter was clearly an expert at


    this. She also spoke as if they had a very close rtionship.


    However, Roxanne did not forget the life she endured at the Jarvis residence after her mother passed


    away.


    Her mother had just passed away for a year when her father had brought Winnie along with her


    children, Yosef and Yuliana.


    From that moment onward, Roxanne realized that her father''s betrayal of her mother was not


    something that had begun recently.


    She and Yosef were only two years apart, while she was three years older than Yuliana.


    Although Roxanne was older than both of them, the younger siblings did not consider her their older


    sister. They showed her no respect, often mocking and ying tricks on her.


    Back then, Winnie was a stepmother who did nothing for her. She never bought Roxanne new clothes.


    Whenever they had treats, she would always put them away for her own children.


    Eventually, it escted to Winnie refusing to allocate funds for Roxanne to continue her studies at


    university.


    Thankfully, Roxanne was able to meet a good mentor in when studying medicine. Relying on her


    medical skills, she treated some people and managed to scrape together enough to pay for her tuition


    fee.


    Eventually, Grant opened his own factory and became wealthy. However, Roxanne only grew


    unhappier by the day.


    In the end, Roxanne was sent to the Farwell family to get married to Lucian in order to appease Ethan.


    Then, if Roxanne had not been in love with Lucian for a long time, she would not have agreed to it.


    When she thought of everything that happened in the past, she found it difficult to eliminate the anger


    and indignation she felt in her heart.


    Honestly speaking, she did not care about Grant''s humble behavior. Thoughts of cutting ties with them


    were always in her mind.


    “Mrs. Jarvis, I''d appreciate it if you didn''t address us with such familiarity, After all, I''m not your


    biological daughter. You''ve made that fact very clear.” Roxanne utterly rejected Winnie''s familiar form of


    address.


    Roxanne''s words caused Winnie''s expression to stiffen. Forcing a smile, Winnie said, “That''s right. I''ve


    overstepped my bounds. Come on inside and have a seat! I may have been a tad overexcited because


    you''re getting married tomorrow!”


    Lucian sighed to himself when he saw how fast Winnie switched gears. What a shameless woman!
