His And Her Marriage (Lucian and Roxanne) novel Chapter 794

Chapter 794 What You Are Doing Is Pointless

A flash of self-mockery flitted across Roxanne’s eyes. She was worried that Lucian might find trouble with Jack because of her, but it turned out that she had gotten it all wrong.

All the while, Lucian was finding trouble with her because of Jack. Seeing the change in the woman’s expression, Lucian realized that what he had just said might have been too suggestive.

With his brows knitted together, Lucian was prepared to explain himself, but Roxanne beat him to the punch.

“Since it’s business-related, you can reason with Mr. Damaris himself. I’m merely a researcher in this project. Both my words and my presence don’t carry much weight, so even if I’m not there at the ceremony, it can still proceed without a hitch.”

Roxanne looked at the man in front of her with a tinge of mockery in her gaze as she continued, “I’m just an insignificant member of the project. If don’t attend the ceremony today, my colleagues will assume I’m unsociable and bring me trouble in the future. Mr. Farwell, please don’t put me in a tight spot.”

The crease between Lucian’s brows deepened when he heard the woman’s words. She had indeed misunderstood him.

“That’s not what I meant!” he declared.

However, his reply only made Roxanne scoff. “Then what do you mean, Mr. Farwell? Are you treating me as a punching bag because you lost a business deal?”

Angered, Lucian narrowed his eyes. He could not think of a way to explain himself as he was caught up in the heat of the moment. Hence, he reached out to grab the woman’s wrist, not wanting to let her slip away.

Without the slightest hesitation, Roxanne attempted to break free of Lucian’s grip, but he was far stronger than her.

“Lucian Farwell, what you’re doing is pointless!” Having grown frustrated after struggling for a while, Roxanne glared at the man in front of her.

Lucian opened his mouth, but he didn’t know what to say to appease her anger. In the end, his retort was short and curt. “You can’t go.”
