Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 1230

When Lucian recalled the scene at the research institute, a cold look entered his eyes. “Back then, when you had just fallen into a coma after being poisoned, Jack refused to send you to the hospital. Tell me, what do you think his intentions are?”

Upon hearing that, Roxanne halted what she was thinking as she wavered.

He coldly continued, “Do you think traditional medicine could’ve saved you back then?”

Without hesitation, she shook her head. “I may be unconscious back then, but I know how dire the situation was. Even if the person who fainted weren’t me, I wouldn’t necessarily have the courage to accept the responsibility of treating them.”

As he gazed intensely at her, he signaled for her to continue, so she did. “Traditional medicine has been passed down for many years because it’s effective in combating chronic diseases. The best way to handle my situation yesterday was to send me to the emergency room immediately because the poison gas had invaded my brain. Acupuncture was worth a try, but the risk of failing is greater. Of course, I wouldn’t take that risk when better options were available.”

“What would’ve happened if you didn’t receive treatment in time?” Lucian inquired.

Roxanne gave that question some thought and replied seriously, “If it weren’t too serious, then I would’ve been in a vegetative state. If it were, I would’ve died. Even if I was lucky enough to wake up, I think I would’ve become mentally disabled.”

When her train of thought ended there, she expressed her gratitude to him. “If not for your help, one of those three scenarios would’ve been my fate, Mr. Farwell. So, thank you.”
