Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 586

Chapter 586

Even though both of them were of a similar status, Lucian still used that tone to speak to Jack, which made the latter feel quite displeased.

However, because Jack was standing in front of another person's house, he had to maintain his composure.

With slightly furrowed eyebrows, he turned to Roxanne, wondering what was her opinion on the matter.

Roxanne also felt Lucian was acting out of line.

However, she was aware that if things continued down that path, Lucian would only cross the line even further.

Sensing Jack's line of sight, she said apologetically, "Thank you for sending me back, Mr.Damaris.Sadly, it's probably not a good idea to invite you inside today.I'll be sure to thank you properly next time."

The moment she finished speaking, Lucian's eyebrows slightly furrowed.He promptly stretched his hand to hold her other arm.

Jack respected her decision and simply nodded with a smile.

"It was nothing.Since you're injured, I think it'll be for the best if we talk about the collaboration on the phone." Roxanne agreed gratefully.

Before he left, Jack's gaze swept past Lucian.

"If you need anything, Ms.Jarvis, just call me."

She pursed her lips and smiled.

"All right.Have a safe trip home, Mr.Damaris."

Seeing how casual the two were acting around each other made Lucian furrow his eyebrows even more intensely.His grip on her arm also became tighter because of that.

Roxanne frowned at him due to the pain.

When she saw his expression, a strange feeling appeared in her heart.

Jack's car slowly disappeared from their sights.

Roxanne looked away from the car and shifted to the side by two steps with great effort.

Then, she stared at Lucian rather alertly.

"No need.It's only a few steps.I can handle it just fine," she rejected without hesitation.

As soon as she finished, she felt the hand on her arm exerting even more force.It was a clear indication of his displeasure.

"Why can't I do it when Jack can?" He gazed at her back deeply.

"Didn't you say you two are only business partners?"

Her body froze slightly as she glanced back at him in disbelief.She thought he was just mocking her, as usual.

However, his expression didn't appear fake to her.He truly believed that there was something between her and Jack.

Roxanne's expression froze when she saw that.

In the end, she complied.

"Thanks for the help, then, Mr.Farwell"
