Chapter 1642 A Lesson
“That was a mere suggestion on my part,” said Linda hurriedly. “We also have other esteemed doctors in the research institute. I believe they will find a solution to this problem.”
Linda had been abroad then, but when she returned to the research institute, she had heard all the gossip about the things Colby had done to Roxanne.
The last time Roxanne was rendered unconscious, it was Colby's fault.
I don't think Mr. Farwell is going to trust this guy. How on earth could I have made that suggestion, of all things?
Linda nearly burst into tears over her own stupidity.
Just as her mind was racing over how to remedy the situation, she heard Lucian's solemn reply. “I understand.”
Linda was stunned.
He understands? What does he understand?
“Is there anything else?” asked Lucian coldly.
Linda quickly shook her head. “No. Please be at ease. I'm certain that plenty of other doctors are capable of doing what Dr. Galloway does. I'll liaise with experts from abroad and ask them to come up with something. Dr. Jarvis studied under Dr. Lambert, so we have a network to reach out to. I'm sure they will help!”
Lucian nodded in response. “I'll leave this to you, then. If they're able to help, I will be sure to reward you for your efforts when Roxanne recovers.”
“This is what I should do,” said Linda firmly.
After all, she had been working together with Roxanne since Roxanne went abroad.
To Linda, Roxanne was more than a leader. She saw Roxanne as a friend.
It was therefore fitting that she put some effort into Roxanne's care now that she was ill.
Lucian understood where Linda was coming from and thanked her again. “Regardless of what happens, I should thank you. If there's nothing else, I'll leave you to your work. I have other matters to attend to.”
With that, Lucian turned on his heel and left.
After leaving the research institute, he sat in the car and began tapping the steering wheel lightly with his fingers. His eyes were filled with hesitation.
Colby Galloway... According to Linda, if this man can truly distinguish the properties of medicinal herbs and can find a way to cure Roxanne, then maybe I should pay him a visit after all.
However, Colby had nearly caused Roxanne's death the last time.
