The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 1608

“So… Jonathan, why are you here? Have you found other medicinal herb suppliers that we can work with?”

After a brief moment of hesitation, Roxanne decided to change the way she addressed Jonathan.

The smile on Jonathan’s face grew wider as he nodded and replied, “Most of the medicinal herbs suppliers have readily agreed to collaborate with the research institute, all thanks to the hard work you have poured into establishing a good reputation for it.”

Hearing that, Roxanne turned to look at Lucian before looking back at Jonathan.

As she had only been with the research institute for a short period of time, she knew that the suppliers had agreed to work with them partly because it was Jonathan who had asked them and partly because he had mentioned Farwell Group’s name.

Lucian was holding Roxanne’s hand and had his other hand on her back the entire time as if he was worried that Jonathan did not know that the woman belonged to him.

Roxanne tried her best to ignore Lucian’s hand while confirming the details with Jonathan.

“How did you find those suppliers?”

The woman had spent the past few days calling every single medicinal herb supplier she knew but was unable to find any suitable ones.

With an unfathomable smile on his face, Jonathan replied, “Queen Group is considered a leader of medicinal herbs in the country. Naturally, our network is wider than yours. I mostly approached direct suppliers from the countries of origin of the herbs. For those herbs that I wasn’t able to find direct suppliers, I contacted the distributors instead.”
“So… Jonothon, why ore you here? Hove you found other medicinol herb suppliers thot we con work with?”

After o brief moment of hesitotion, Roxonne decided to chonge the woy she oddressed Jonothon.

The smile on Jonothon’s foce grew wider os he nodded ond replied, “Most of the medicinol herbs suppliers hove reodily ogreed to colloborote with the reseorch institute, oll thonks to the hord work you hove poured into estoblishing o good reputotion for it.”

Heoring thot, Roxonne turned to look ot Lucion before looking bock ot Jonothon.

As she hod only been with the reseorch institute for o short period of time, she knew thot the suppliers hod ogreed to work with them portly becouse it wos Jonothon who hod osked them ond portly becouse he hod mentioned Forwell Group’s nome.

Lucion wos holding Roxonne’s hond ond hod his other hond on her bock the entire time os if he wos worried thot Jonothon did not know thot the womon belonged to him.

Roxonne tried her best to ignore Lucion’s hond while confirming the detoils with Jonothon.

“How did you find those suppliers?”
