Chapter 788 Am I Bothering You

Although Lucian did not answer her question directly, Estella was satisfied with his response, and she nodded

obediently.

Meanwhile, Roxanne was also being questioned by her two boys.

“Mommy, did Mr. Farwell make you angry?” Benny had been following her wherever she went like a puppy.

Having been questioned for almost half a day, Roxanne answered in resignation, “No.”

“Then why did you ignore Mr. Farwell during lunch earlier?” Benny asked, unwilling to give up.

Roxanne and Lucian did not exchange a single word with each other during the entire meal.

Neither of them had responded, even when the children had tried their best to create an opportunity for them to

speak.

Roxanne, especially, had seemed to ignore the words “Mr. Farwell” in the children’s sentences. In fact, she had

barely looked at him.

Feelings of guilt rose in Roxanne’s heart when she heard the boys’ question.

The reason she had ignored Lucian was that she did not want to see his face, for she would be reminded of the

incident last night. She felt incredibly troubled whenever she thought about it.

“I’m just a little tired because I didn’t sleep well last night. That’s why.” Roxanne made an excuse after some time.

She then turned around and headed upstairs. “I’m going upstairs to get some rest. Play among yourselves, okay?”

Archie and Benny watched her leave, their eyes filled with suspicion.

They could tell she was lying, but it was true that she did not sleep well last night, so they stopped questioning her.

As soon as she returned to her room, Roxanne felt a wave of relief washing over her thanks to the silence.

For some unknown reason, the boys seemed to be very interested in her relationship with Lucian recently.

If it were not for the boys’ normal behavior, she would have wondered if they had found out about their identities.

Just as she was lost in her thoughts, her phone rang.

She snapped back to her senses and lowered her head to check who the caller was.

It’s Jack. He must be calling because of the project.

Roxanne answered her phone without hesitation.

“Am I bothering you?” Jack’s voice sounded the moment the call connected.

Roxanne recollected herself and smiled. “No. I’m resting in my room. Is there any problem with the project?”

Hearing her response, Jack raised his brow and asked unhappily, “Am I only allowed to contact you because of the

project?”

His tone of voice clearly expressed his emotion, leaving Roxanne momentarily at a loss for words.

Right then, Jack’s voice rang out again in his usual calm tone as if what Roxanne had heard earlier was just her

imagination.

“Anyway, you guessed it right. For our project, we need to collaborate with a pharmaceutical company. Recently,

I’ve looked into the companies in Horington, and I think Herbscape Group is quite good. It took me quite some time

to convince them to sign the agreement. They’ll be providing our follow-up medication.”

The mention of the project dismissed the strange feeling she had felt earlier. She smiled and said, “That’s great.

Herbscape Group is one of the biggest pharmaceutical companies in Horington. We won’t have to worry about our

medicinal herbs supply in the future. Thank you for the hard work, Mr. Damaris. You’ve solved a huge problem on

our behalf.”

Roxanne’s research institute had been facing problems in terms of their medicinal herbs supply, all because of

Aubree and Sonya, who had been making things difficult for her.

Roxanne was sincerely delighted to hear that Jack had solved the problem.
