Meanwhile, Roxanne had a pale look on her face, but Lucian did not know if it was because she had not fully recovered from the poison or because she was in a foul mood.
Lucian was worried, so after exiting the hotel, he brought her to lunch before taking her to the hospital for a full-body checkup.
Knowing that he was worried, Roxanne went along with his plans.
Lucian was finally at ease after Roxanne underwent a series of tests and was confirmed to be mostly fine.
“I know my own body. The poison is gone,” Roxanne softly reassured him. “It's just that too many things have happened lately, and I'm having a hard time digesting them all. I'll be fine once things blow over.”
Roxanne would feel wistful every time she thought about Jack's true nature and the collapse of Damaris Group.
At that, Lucian pulled her into an embrace and spoke in a quiet voice.
“Jack only has himself to blame for the downfall of Damaris Group. Furthermore, the Damarises have to bear the responsibility for not noticing what he has been doing. To put it simply, it was them who caused their fall from grace.”
Jack's vision for the continued development of Damaris Group, if realized, would result in worsening circumstances over time.
If their cover had not been blown this time, it was highly probable that Damaris Group would be implicated in an irreparable medical mishap the next time.
Perhaps this was the best ending for Damaris Group instead of involving even more victims.
Roxanne knew that, and yet, she still could not help but feel wistful about it.
If this is the true nature of Damaris Group, a company known for its benevolence, what about the other medical groups?
Roxanne wondered if her decision to put her patients as her priority was wrong.
