The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 848

Chapter 848 Not That Easy

Due to the sudden scandal about Herbscape Group, Jack had spent the whole night thinking. In the end, he decided that since he had sacrificed so much, he had to drag Lucian down with him.

Early the next morning, Jack drove to Roxanne’s house. Roxanne was eating breakfast with Archie and Benny when the doorbell rang. She couldn’t help but wonder who it was.

When she saw the person standing at the door, she was surprised. “Mr. Damaris, what brings you here so early in the morning? Did anything happen to Herbscape Group again?”

As she spoke, she looked at Jack in confusion and stepped aside to let him in.

Jack nodded firmly, looking solemn. “I spent a lot of money yesterday and helped stabilize their stock prices, but this morning, Herbscape Group was ordered to stop its operation. All of its projects and activities will have to be postponed from now on.”

This meant that if they carried on with their project, Herbscape Group would likely be unable to supply them with medicines on time.

As a result, the money Jack spent would also go to waste.

When Roxanne realized that, she said worriedly, “Then our project…”

“It will also have to be postponed.” Jack rubbed his temples and casually mentioned, “I wonder who Herbscape Group offended.”

Upon hearing that, Roxanne thought of her speculation the day before. Guilt filled her as she took in Jack’s distressed appearance.

In an attempt to change the topic, she cleared her throat and said, “Does this mean Damaris Group’s efforts all this time will be in vain? It must be a huge loss.”
