Chapter 461
Roxanne was the only one in the empty office.
She turned on her laptop, intending to research more about congenital diseases among children. However, she could not absorb anything she read.
Her initial plan for coming back to the research institute was to work as she hoped to use it to forget about Lucian’s words earlier.
Little did she expect everyone to be so supportive about the medical consultation.
Sitting alone in the office, she could not decipher her mixed feelings.
She could not retain much information even after staring at the screen for a long time.
Right as she reached the peak of her frustration, her phone suddenly rang.
Roxanne picked up her phone and froze when she saw who the caller was. Although she was hesitant, she still decided to answer the call.
“Roxanne, how is your preparation coming along?”
It was Larry on the other end of the line.
Suppressing her emotions, Roxanne calmly replied, “I’m still trying to understand the Damaris family’s research approach. How about you?”
Larry chuckled. “Me too. However, I will be going there with the intention to learn, so I did not prepare much.”
After they exchanged some of their findings, Larry suggested, “The medical consultation will be happening this weekend, and it will be out of town. I could swing by to pick you up and head to the medical consultation together. What do you think?”
Previously, Roxanne had already agreed to go there with him. Despite so, when Larry brought it up again, Lucian’s furious expression appeared in her mind’s eye.
A short moment of silence passed. Massaging her temples, Roxanne answered in an apologetic tone, “Larry, I think I will head there on my own.”
