Chapter 1390


    Lucian did not even try to deny Jack''s words, and he looked as hostile as ever.


    It seemed that Roxanne felt ufortable because of his tight hold, so she whined and struggled a bit.


    Sensing her movements, Lucian loosened his grip and patted her on the shoulder to calm her down.


    When Jack saw the intimate interaction between the couple, his displeasure grew.


    “Ms. Jarvis and I just drank a little wine with the patients'' families. We cured the elders, so their family


    members enthusiastically insisted on thanking us. I was nning to drive Ms. Jarvis home since she''s


    drunk.”


    It sounded like Jack was simply exining, but anyone smart enough could decipher the meaning


    hidden behind his words.


    Jack was basically dering that Roxanne and he were from the same world. They cured the elders


    together and epted the families'' gratitude together, and all these had nothing to do with Lucian.


    Naturally, Lucian knew what Jack was trying to imply. The former''s face turned stern as he said,


    "Thanks for your reminder, Mr.


    Damaris. I''ll tell Roxanne to drink less next time in gatherings like this.”


    Just like that, he retorted Jack''s provocation.


    Afterward, Lucian added, "It''s gettingte. I''ll take Roxanne back to the hotel so she can rest. There are


    a lot of things in my car, and I don''t want to let you feel ufortable in a cramped space.


    Please just wait for your driver to pick you up, Mr. Damaris.”


    With that, Lucian turned around and left with Roxanne.


    Jack boiled with rage as he watched the couple''s leaving figures.


    "Mr. Farwell, are you backtracking now? Howe I remember that you always treated your ex-wife


    Property of N?)(velDr(a)ma.Org.


    coldly six years ago? You seemed to dislike her a lot,” he couldn''t help but mock.


    Pausing in his tracks, Lucian admitted his fault frankly. "I had indeed lost my mind six years ago and


    made Roxanne suffer. But now, I know my own feelings very well. Roxanne can only be mine. Mr.


    Damaris, I suggest you stop making useless efforts.”


    Jack sneered, "If I remember correctly, it hasn''t been long since you canceled your engagement with


    your previous fiancee. And now, you''re dering your dominance over Ms. Jarvis. How ridiculous!”


    The implication of his sarcastic words was clear—Jack was set on snatching Roxanne from Lucian.


    Lucian turned around and shot a nce at Jack. “So what? Roxanne is the mother of my daughter.


    Just that fact alone proves that our rtionship is imprable by outsiders.”


    Right after Lucian said that, he felt something heavy against his body.


    Lowering his head, he saw that Roxanne had fallen asleep in his arms. She was resting against his


    chest, looking like she was about to copse anytime.


    Lucian''s eyes softened as he looked at Roxanne''s sleeping face. He then bent down and carried her.


    In her sleep, Roxanne could smell a scent that made her feel safe. She leaned into Lucian and put her


    hand over his chest, grabbing his shirt.


    Even when his designer shirt was wrinkled by Roxanne''s action, Lucian only smiled dotingly and


    walked downstairs.


    Under the influence of alcohol, Jack was even more incensed to see the two leave together. His eyes


    turned red with rage, and his hands balled into tight fists.


    So what if they have a child?


    After spending the day with Roxanne and discovering her impressiveprehension of medical


    knowledge, Jack was determined to win Roxanne over.


    She was the only one qualified to do research in medicine with him and build their own empire in the


    medical field.


    I still have a chance as long as Lucian and Roxanne don''t remarry. I''m going to make Roxanne mine!
