Chapter 434
Mission To Remarry
âNo wonder you asked me previously about when Dr. Jarvis was traveling to Summerbank. And yet, I was thinking that you were pestering me about my job. Little did I expect that it was for selfish reasons!â
Jonathan teased Lucian when he finally connected the dots.
Lucian responded with a silent but grim look on his face.
I did do it for my own selfish reasons, but Roranne wasnât grateful at all.
Raising his brows, Jonathan pressed on, âIn that case, you must have attended the banquet that night.
So, how did it go? Did you make any progress with her?â
As soon as he said those words, he saw the gloomy look on Lucianâs face.
Looks like itâs obvious that there isnât any improvement at all.
Jonathan was still confounded by the situation.

Despite all that Lucian has done to pursue her, why is she still unmoved? This is the first time I have seen Lucian put so much effort into courting a lady. Anyone else in Roxanneâs position would have thrown herself unreservedly into his arms. For Dr. Jarvis to have caused Lucian so much grief, she truly is one of a kind. That aside, whatâs this friend of mine thinking? Why wonât he give up on the woman who keeps infuriating him?
Confused by it all, Jonathan couldnât help but ask, âIs she still ignoring you like before?â
Lucian furrowed his brows and remained silent.
âLucian, what do you plan to do about Dr. Jarvis? Youâve done so much for her, but she continues to disregard your feelings. Are you sure you want to keep this up?â Jonathan just couldnât imagine how much his friend coveted Roxanne.
At the side, Cayden, who had heard the comment, snuck a glance at Lucian and recalled Roxanneâs frosty attitude toward his boss, Ever since she returned to the Chanaea, he had always been there to witness all of Lucian and Roxanneâs interactions. It was obvious to him that Roxanne was trying her best to avoid Lucian.
Yet, Lucian had never stopped showing his concern for her.
This time, it looks like Mr. Farwellâs feelings are for real.
With that thought in mind, Cayden tactfully replied on behalf of Lucian. âMr. Queen, considering how well you know Mr. Farwell, Iâm sure itâs obvious to you how serious he is in getting Ms.
Jarvis to stay by his side.â
Just as he spoke, both men turned toward Lucian to see his reaction.
Lucianâs ensuing silence was an implicit acknowledgment of Caydenâs words.
Jonathan pondered a moment before replying with a smile, âIn that case, Iâll definitely help you come up with a plan. Didnât you previously mention that you wanted me to get her to stay instead of going overseas?â
Lucian cocked his brow slightly, cognizant of what Jonathanâs plan was.
âNow that the issues at the research institute have been resolved, Dr. Jarvis would likely return overseas once the instituteâs collaboration with the few companies has stabilized,â Jonathan analyzed calmly.
Lucianâs face darkened.
Itâs true that considering her current attitude toward me, she will leave without hesitation once her job is done. If I donât send someone to keep an eye on her, she could leave without me knowing.
The thought of Roxanne disappearing from his life again caused him to furrow his brows. He asked Jonathan, âWhat do you suggest?â
Sensing his friendâs anger, Jonathan cracked a confident smile. âDonât forget about what I do for a living. As someone from the medical industry, I know better than anyone else what Dr. Jarvis wants. If Iâm not mistaken, she specializes in traditional medicine. In that case, thereâs no way she will refuse the opportunity Iâm going to provide her with.â
