Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 1768

Chapter 1768 Not Allowed To Go Today

After drinking a few cups of coffee, Jonathan beat a hasty retreat with the excuse that drinking too much coffee would lead to insomnia.

Lucian watched as the man left. Gradually, his smiling expression faded, only to be replaced with a pensive look.

What exactly is the identity of the man Frieda knows? I've looked into it for a bit, and considering Old Mr. Lomax's status, she couldn't have suddenly made his acquaintance, much less successfully persuade the great King of Medicine to come to Horington and treat a veritable stranger. Regretfully, it's inappropriate for me to ask Old Mr. Lomax about this directly.

Having made up his mind, he snagged his phone and called Cayden.

“Arrange for someone to investigate everyone Frieda has been in contact with recently, especially anyone with a northern accent. If you have any leads, check them out thoroughly!”

“Got it. I'll go about it right away,” Cayden answered.

Without anyone realizing it, a week flew past.

Lucian took Roxanne to the hospital for several checkups consecutively to ascertain that the toxins within her had been completely dispelled.

Roxanne then started to devote herself to research and development once more.

Waking up early one morning, she noticed that Lucian was still slumbering soundly beside her. As she gazed at him, he appeared all the more handsome. Ultimately, she could not help reaching out and cautiously stroking his face.

It was as though his lips possessed some magical powers as she found her gaze riveted on them. She carefully leaned over and sampled them briefly.

He did not wake up but turned over and continued sleeping.

Roxanne silently got out of bed and went to the bathroom outside to wash up, loathed to wake him.

Thereafter, she quickly went downstairs and had breakfast before returning to the room.

Opening his bleary eyes, Lucian asked, “Why did you wake up so early? Sleep in for a bit.”

“No, it's okay. I've had enough sleep. I've got to go to the research institute soon. A number of projects will be launched at the same time today, and Old Mr. Lomax is also waiting. So, you'll have to send the kids to school!”

All smiles, Roxanne did not wait for his response but promptly leaned down and gave him a light peck on the cheek.
