The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 871

Chapter 871 Defeat

“Okay,” Lucian said, then took Estella back to the Farwell residence. Soon after, the black Bentley drove away. A camera flashed in the grass in front of Roxanne’s house, and a man appeared from the grass afterward.

While processing the photographs he had just taken, he hurriedly got into his car and tailed Jack’s, which was heading toward the research institute.

Roxanne tried to suppress her worries about Estella on the way to the research institute. She began asking about matters related to Herbscape Group.

“I was in a rush to leave just now. How are things with Herbscape Group going?”

Roxanne really wanted to know if Herbscape Group had actually done those things. Or if Lucian’s business strategies were so terrifying that they allowed him to pass off fake as genuine.

A hint of displeasure flashed across Jack’s eyes. However, his tone was warm when he spoke to Roxanne. “It’s probably not optimistic.”

Roxanne furrowed her brows. She had a theory in mind.

“Herbscape Group is involved in a plethora of matters. I’m afraid the ones that have been exposed online were just the tip of the iceberg. Now, the relevant departments are involved. I don’t know how much trouble it’s going to cause.”

Jack sighed as his head began to hurt.

Roxanne frowned. “But didn’t you guys look into it at that time?”

Given the Damaris family’s influence, it seemed unlikely that they did not know about the details of Herbscape Group.

Jack chuckled bitterly. “We have scoured the entire Herbscape Group, but we wouldn’t be able to find anything if someone purposely covered for them.”
