    Everyone at the dining table looked at Roxanne with more admiration. They even had the urge to take


    her in as their disciple.

    However, recalling that she had rejected even Gerald’s offer, they felt embarrassed to speak up.


    Gerald quickly changed the topic, but the conversation still stayed within the medical field.


    Because of Roxanne’s performance earlier in the afternoon, whenever Gerald raised new questions in


    the conversation, everyone would immediately turn their gazes to her.


    Roxanne felt as though she had joined another conference, with everyone cing the main focus on


    her.


    Fortunately for her, such an atmosphere did notst long. Gerald soon realized the atmosphere had


    turned a little too solemn for the asion, so he quickly navigated the conversation to something more


    rxing.


    Being the juniors among everyone else, Roxanne and Larry became their main targets to tease.


    Whenever a senior offered her drinks, Roxanne couldn’t find an excuse to reject them. She would


    ept every drink her seniors gave her.


    After having several drinks in a row and noticing how her seniors still intended to give her more,


    Roxanne quickly made an excuse to go to the washroom when she was only finding an opportunity to


    leave the private room to get some fresh air.


    The restaurant was named Ocean Restaurant, and its decoration mainly was in dark blue with a touch


    of white, which gave the restaurant a mysterious yet calming atmosphere.


    After wandering around the door to the private room, Roxanne finally felt sober. She knew she couldn’t


    make her seniors wait for too long, so she decided to head back inside the private room.


    “Dr. Jarvis?”


    Right after she turned around, she ran into a middle-aged man. His white shirt seemed a little too tight


    because of his beer belly, and the buttons on his shirt seemed as though they could pop at any


    moment. Also, the man’s cheeks were flushed, indicating that he was drunk.


    Seeing that Roxanne had turned around to look at him, the middle-aged man took a couple of steps


    forward. He looked as if he was about to stick his face closer at Roxanne to confirm if he recognized


    her correctly.


    Roxanne frowned and stepped back, putting some distance between them before greeting, “Dr.


    Chambers, it’s been a while.”


    The middle-aged man was a doctor working in the hospital that was a partner of Roxanne’s research


    institute. Roxanne had only met him several times before this, and aside from hisst name Chambers,


    Roxanne knew nothing else about him.


    Seeing that he didn’t mistake another person for her, he got bolder and looked at Roxanne in a


    perverted manner. “I remember thinking you’re beautiful when we met at the research institute. Dr.


    Jarvis, now that I’ve seen you out of your researchb coat, I realize that not only you’re beautiful, but


    you also have a great body.”


    As he spoke, he slowly approached Roxanne. “Look at your face. It’s glowing. Let me touch it…”


    Noticing that he had stretched out his greasy hand toward her, Roxanne felt disgusted and pped his


    hand away. “Dr. Chambers, you should know your boundaries!”


    He was startled for a couple of seconds before realizing she had pped his hand away. He frowned


    and red at her. “How dare you hit me?”


    Roxanne refused to dwell on this any longer with him, so she tried to make her way past him.


    However, he strode forward and blocked her path. “Are you trying to walk away from me after hitting


    me? As if I’ll let that happen!”


    After saying that, he shifted his gaze lower to her slender waist, and the anger in his eyes dissipated a


    little. “Spend the night with me, and I’ll forget what happened today. What do you say?”


    “If you daree any closer to me, I’ll call security!” Roxanne warned, having been forced to a corner.


    He was unbothered as he tried to snake his arm around her waist. Greed and lust were written all over


    his face. “Sure. Call them if you don’t mind. We can always let them watch us have fun!”


    His body was about to cover hers, and Roxanne knew she was at a disadvantage if she tried to resist


    him with physical strength. As she racked her brains toe up with an escape n, the stench of


    alcohol slowly filled her nostrils.


    Just when Roxanne was slowly getting into despair, she heard a grunt. In the next second, he was sent


    flying away from her.
