Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 648

Chapter 648

Soon, Cayden sent Jessica away.

Only after getting out of the hotel did Jessica finally make sense of what was happening.She struggled to break free, but it was all too late.

After Jessica left, Lucian scanned the crowd.

Everyone felt chills running down their backs as they met his gaze.

They dared not linger and hastily left afterward.

Instantly, only a few people were left at the entrance of the hotel.

"Thank you for helping me out of the situation, Mr.Farwell," Roxanne said.

She lowered her gaze and tried to calm herself as she muttered her thanks to Lucian, consciously keeping her distance from the man.

Then she turned around to head back to Larry's side.

However, Lucian held her hand right after she turned around.

Roxanne paused in her tracks and instinctively wanted to shrug him off, yet she did not have the courage to turn around and tell him off.She simply stood there stiffly.

"You've always been insincere with your thanks, Ms.Jarvis," Lucian said in an enigmatic tone.

Then, he lifted his head to regard Jack and Larry who were standing not far from them.

When he parted his lips, however, he did not sound as amiable as when he was defending Roxanne.

"Mr.Damaris, Mr.Morrison, the both of you couldn't even handle a drunken woman, and as a result, your business partner here has suffered a scare.I'm afraid this is hardly ideal as far as business collaborations go," Lucian said.

When Cayden reported the matter to him earlier, he had only mentioned that Roxanne was being put on the spot, and Lucian had come to her aid without hesitation.He was upset to discover that Jack and Larry were actually present as well.

Larry glanced at Roxanne's stiffened face.He approached her and said to Lucian, "It all happened too fast.We had no time to respond.Thank goodness, Roxanne is not hurt."иσνєℓєвσσк.¢σм

A guilty look flitted across Larry's eyes.

Owing to his amicable personality, he had only thought about defending Roxanne when Jessica tried to admonish her.It never occurred to him to come up with a more aggressive retaliation.

Larry knew he could have done better.

Lucian gave him a sardonic look and turned to look at Jack.He wanted to see what kind of explanation the latter would come up with.
