Leaving The Country After Divorce novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 1679

Chapter 1679 High And Mighty

After Jack explained about the drug he developed, he asked cheerily, “So, Mr. Farwell? Have you considered my third condition?”

Despite his initial shock, Lucian regained his composure and met Jack's gaze calmly. “You have my word.”

Jack was still unsatisfied. “Just that? What about proof? Without proof, how can I be sure that you are not lying to me? I trust your character, but I went through a lot of effort to create the antidote. I don't want to get tricked.”

Lucian furrowed his brows. “What kind of proof do you need?”

Jack arched a brow and said readily, "A marriage certificate, of course. It's too late now. The City Hall should be closed. If you announce to the public that you're marrying someone else, I'll take that, too.”

With that, he shot Lucian a provoking look.

Jack knew precisely which condition was most unacceptable to Lucian, so he was eager to observe Lucian's distress after he brought up the condition again.

/ will certainly relish the sight of the high and mighty CEO of Farwell Group suffering before me!

“All right.” Lucian nodded calmly.

Jack frowned as surprise and displeasure flitted across his gaze. “What did you just say?”

He did not expect Lucian's reaction and was thoroughly disappointed.

This is the moment I've been eagerly anticipating. How could Lucian be this calm? Why isn't he hesitating or experiencing any reservations about having to leave Roxanne? How could he say yes so easily?

A mocking grin played on Lucian's lips. “I've already considered the three conditions carefully and made up my mind before asking to meet you. However, it was a careless mistake on my part, as I didn't get the proof ready for you. I'll leave to take care of it right away.”
