Leaving The Country After Divorce novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 1521

Chapter 1521

The two were busy until eight at night.

After exiting the laboratory, Jack checked the time and suggested, “It's late now. Let's have a meal together. We haven't seen each other in a while.”

However, Roxanne declined apologetically as she was a little worn out, “Let's do that some other day. I'm too tired today.”

“I'll send you back, then,” he persisted.

At his words, she could not help but recall her previous speculation and felt a bit concerned. “I appreciate your offer, Mr. Damaris, but I drove here. I'll have problems getting to work tomorrow if you send me back, so it's best not to.”

After saying that, she continued without giving him a chance to reply, “It's indeed a little late. Let's head out early.”

Jack frowned in displeasure when he saw her turning on her heels and followed her to the entrance of the research institute.

Just as Roxanne was about to get in her car, he suddenly spoke. “Oh, by the way, if you have time tomorrow afternoon, come to Damaris Group. We haven't talked much about the profit distribution of the new drug. Now that the research has taken shape, it's time to put this issue on the agenda.”

She naturally would not refuse his invitation, so she promptly nodded. “All right. I'll go there on time.”

After bidding each other a simple farewell, they got in their respective cars.

Jack's scowl deepened as he watched her drive off slowly.

It's crystal clear how different her attitude is toward Lucian and me. She's wary of me. Lucian must've said something to her! There's no guarantee that she won't completely distance herself from me because of him at a later date. If that happens, we won't have the chance to cooperate again!

As that thought crossed his mind, he glanced maliciously at a box of customized sandalwood incense lying beside him. His mouth formed a sneer as he inhaled the distinct fragrance.

Even if Lucian's words are useful, so what? I've long made my move! Roxanne will never be able to get away from me!
