Surprised, Roxanne looked at Lucian.
She felt more triggered by what he said just now than when he told her he wanted to court her back then.
Lucian’s face showed a hint of awkwardness when he met Roxanne’s eyes. Soon, he regained his composure.
“Let’s do as you say if you feel it’s appropriate.”
A moment later, Lucian behaved as if nothing had happened. “You’re a doctor yourself, so you should know your condition well. The experts said the residual poison in your body is almost gone. You can be discharged from the hospital soon.”
He changed the topic abruptly and sounded unnatural.
His expression intrigued Roxanne, and she almost burst out laughing. Then, she said, “Then, Mr. Farwell, please help me with the discharge procedures. We can start the investigation earlier.”
Lucian agreed to it without saying anything more and went to handle her discharge procedures.
Feeling uneasy, Lucian confirmed with the experts again that it was okay for Roxanne to be discharged after leaving the ward.
Originally, the experts were forced to allow Roxanne to stay for observation due to Lucian.
Thus, they immediately assured Lucian that Roxanne could be discharged without a problem.
After that, Lucian went to handle Roxanne’s discharge procedure. When he got back to the ward, Roxanne was ready to leave.
Lucian was in a daze looking at the smiling lady in a dress before him.
Yesterday, Roxanne looked extremely pale, and he was shocked to see her in a hospital gown. Thus, he felt strange now that she looked well.
“Are you done?” Roxanne was confused since he stood at the door silently.
Lucian snapped out of his reverie when he heard her voice. “Yes, let’s go. I’ll send you home.”
Just like that, they entered the elevator one after another.
