The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 1564

Seeing that Jack had finally capitulated, Roxanne inwardly heaved a sigh of relief and continued to lower Damaris Group’s profit split. “Damaris Group will take thirty-five percent.”

From the moment he spoke first, he had already lost.

He remarked with a scowl, “You really know how to conduct business, Ms. Jarvis. I’m impressed.”

Roxanne replied calmly, “I merely stated the facts. Besides, in the future, we’ll be purchasing the medicinal herbs by ourselves, so Damaris Group won’t suffer any losses either.”

“Seems like Mr. Farwell has taught you well.” Jack sneered.

Instead of continuing that topic, she added, “Oh, right, the collaboration between the research institute and Damaris Group isn’t long-term. Thus, the profit split is only applied to this project. Any collaborations between the two entities in the future will be discussed if and when it happens.”

Jack’s smile slowly turned cold as he could no longer control his expression. “As expected from you, Mrs. Farwell. You really are an expert in conducting business.”

The fact that he kept bringing Lucian up ticked Roxanne off. Her countenance darkened as she spat, “If you want to chat with Mr. Farwell that badly, I don’t mind calling him over.”

“I just wanted to point out that you’ve changed a lot after getting together with Mr. Farwell, Ms. Jarvis.” Staring at her meaningfully, Jack commented, “To me, you’re supposed to be just a doctor. When did you become so opportunistic?”

He was basically hinting at her that Lucian was merely using her for his own benefit.

Upon understanding the meaning behind his words, Roxanne was amused. I wonder if Jack can still say the same thing if he learns Lucian told me to agree to the fifty percent split and use the opportunity to learn medicine from the Damaris family.
