Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 725

Chapter 725 Why Did You Not Pick Us Up

Did Jessica do this on purpose? Why did she choose such a strong wine for dinner?

Nevertheless, when Roxanne didn’t notice anything amiss after drinking it, she wondered if she had been overthinking what was going on.

After all, the reason they were gathered was just to hear Jessica’s apology.

Cognizant of the tension, Jessica exchanged pleasantries briefly before getting up to take her leave.

Both of them barely ate and the food was already cold.

Nonetheless, Roxanne, feeling a little woozy, wondered what sort of wine had Jessica ordered. Although she only had a small glass, the after-effects were extremely strong.

Naturally, Jack didn’t insist and got up to leave with her.

When they went down the stairs upon leaving the restaurant, Roxanne accidentally slipped and almost fell down.

Fortunately, Jack noticed it and turned around to catch her in the nick of time.

“Thank you,” Roxanne murmured before retracting her hand.

Jack flashed a smile. “No problem.”

After they got into the car one after the other, Jack—who didn’t drink—decided to drive Roxanne home to not trouble the driver.

On the way home, a black sedan followed them from a safe distance.

With his attention entirely focused on Roxanne, Jack didn’t notice the car at all.
