Orchid had thought that parachuting into the management team this time would be smoother than
before and that she would be able to integrate the research institute, pharmaceuticalpany, and
hospital more thoroughly, leading to an explosive increase in profits.
However, the finance team informed her that the pharmaceuticalpany was losing money every
day. The previous drug pricing was too low, so they couldn''t cover the production costs, let alone
research and development expenses.
As for the hospital, although it could generate some profit, those wealthy people suddenly stopped
significant loss in revenue.
At the same time, some patients wanted to leave the hospital as soon as they heard that the director
had been reced.
While Orchid was busy dealing with these issues, Peregrine''s n was also set into motion, with the
Having lost the patents and the substantial profits provided by Flora Verba Group, Orchid finally
realized that Roxanne had been well-prepared, leaving her with nothing but an empty shell.
Facing the shortage of cash flow, departure of technical personnel, and loss of patents, Orchid left
Horington within two days.
She nned to visit GK Group''s headquarters to liaise with the board of directors for more resource
allocation. Otherwise, GK Group would never stand a chance to gain a foothold in the domestic market.
Meanwhile, Roxanne''s ploy was also being carried out in full swing.
James and Colby were absorbing the technical personnel from the research institute while Linda was
busy preparing for the construction of the new hospital.
On the other hand, Jonathan was upied with establishing a new pharmaceuticalpany and
incorporating all the patents into it. The final step was then to list thepany under Flora Verba
Group.
Before long, Roxanne''s business empire would be restored to its former glory.
Of course, that couldn''t have happened without the strong support from Lucian.
In addition to providingmercial support, Lucian was also a full- time pro at taking care of an
expectant mother.
One day, Lucian happily brought Roxanne to the maternity hospital, nning to do a 4D ultrasound
scan to check on the baby''s progress.
After the ultrasound, the attending physician congratted the couple, “Congrattions, Mr. Farwell
and Ms. Jarvis. You''re truly blessed because you''ll be having mixed-gender twins!”
“Mixed-gender twins...”
The couple looked at each other and burst into ecstasy.
Lucian was especially overjoyed, almost jumping up in excitement.
“This is so great! Archie, Benny, and Essie won''t have to argue anymore. They''ll have both younger

brother and sister.” Hardly able to contain his exhration, Lucian nced at the embryos, which were
smaller than his palm, on the imaging report again.
His eyes were filled with tender adoration.
“Now we''ll have five kids. That''s enough to make up a basketball team. Lucian, let me tell you, after
giving birth to these two, I don''t n to have any more kids,” Roxanne pouted and grumbled.
However, Lucian curled his lips into a knowing smile. “It''s just a basketball team. Can''t we have enough
kids to make up a football team?”
The attending physician grinned as well. “Considering both of your looks and intelligence, having a few
more children would actually be a good idea.”
“Doctor, it''s easy for you to say that ” Roxanneined.
The physicianughed heartily and reminded them of the follow up matters.
Lucian recounted his caretaking process during that period and receivedvish praises. His face
beamed with a sense of aplishment.
As they left the hospital and got into the car, Lucian immediately began fussing over Roxanne.
“Darling, you''ll need to start controlling your sweets intake from now on. Pregnancy makes it very easy
to develop gestational diabetes. Also, remember to take your folic acid on time. And don''t forget to
soak your feet daily to prevent severe swelling in your legs duringte pregnancy stages.
