His And Her Marriage (Lucian and Roxanne) novel Chapter 1266

Roxanne, Lucian, and Colby stood next to the lab counter.

“Dr. Galloway, Mr. Damaris isn’t here today, so please conduct the experiment with me.”

Done with all the preparations, Roxanne glanced over her shoulder at Colby, who was standing at the side.

Colby had a feeling that something was off about the experiment that day. He was downright reluctant deep within, but he could only bite the bullet and concur so that he wouldn’t appear even more suspicious. Stepping forward, he walked over to Roxanne.

As Roxanne went about the experiment, she uttered, “You should be clear about the steps for this experiment, so I’m not going to repeat them. I merely want to see where exactly things went wrong.”

Colby flashed her a forced smile. “Okay, I’ll do my best.”

Without looking at him, Roxanne vaguely muttered an acknowledgment.

She wasn’t sure whether it was her mind playing tricks on her, but after that brief interaction, she found his reaction seemingly strange.

Consequently, she became very distracted throughout the experiment.

Finally, they came to the segment where the accident occurred.

Surprisingly, no smoke billowed out from the flask as it did the other day.

Roxanne stood at the side with her eyes lowered, rendering her expression indiscernible.

Just as Colby was about to speak, he glimpsed her suddenly turning and casting a glance in Lucian’s direction.

When the couple looked at each other, helplessness showed on Roxanne’s face.

Colby keenly perceived the expression of her emotions, and a wave of jealousy surged within him.

I’m standing right next to her, and I understand the experiment far better! So why? Why is she asking him for help? Come to think of it, they also came to the research institute together this morning. It seems that their relationship is much closer than I expected!
