Mission To Remarry

Chapter 1820

Once Roxanne ended her sentence, she hung up, denying Jonathan a chance to refuse.

Worried that Lucian would be dissatisfied, she explained, “I'm content with the scheme you've devised for me. Lucian. However, if the Queen family bears the losses, it'll be the same as you do it. This whole scheme will be meaningless in that case.”

However, Lucian chuckled. “Your methods are very befitting of a businessman's now!”

“Really? That's great! As long as Jonathan can control the prices, he'll help me save a lot of money. I'd say two hundred million is a fitting price to pay to settle this matter.”

Then Roxanne turned around to boil water and prepare Lucian's favorite coffee.

The fragrance of coffee filled the air.

As she enjoyed the coffee, he carefully observed her expression and said, “Accompany me to the middle school tomorrow, Roxanne. I promised Elektra to visit our old principal since he's sick.”

She grinned. “Since this is a promise between you and Ms. Lane, I don't think it's a good idea for me to join you two. It's fine. I won't get jealous. I know you two are only former classmates.”

The current Roxanne was a lot franker and better at expressing her thoughts. I don't need to be jealous since he has done so much to prove his love for me. Besides, I'm sure he mentioned he would bring me along when he talked to Elektra. In that case, I don't have anything to be upset about. Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.

“That's not exactly why I'm asking you to join me. Did you forget you're the legendary Dr. Jarvis? I want

you to come along because you may be able to treat his condition.”

“I see. In that case, I'll gladly join you. When the time comes, pick me up at the research institute. I need to be there very early in the morning tomorrow.”

Elektra was groggily woken up by her alarm clock at nine in the morning.

As she was dead drunk last night, she couldn't recall why she was woken up by the alarm clock. Hence, she turned it off and went back to sleep, not wanting to deal with anything else.

Then she suddenly recalled her promise with Lucian to meet with their old principal.

She opened her eyes, ignored her headache, and rapidly dressed up.

There was only an hour left until her time of meeting at ten.

Swiftly, she bathed, changed into a lovely attire, put on makeup to conceal her despondent appearance, and washed her mouth multiple times to remove the smell of alcohol.

As Elektra stood before the gates of her middle school, she reminisced about her time there. It's been more than a decade, but I still remember how Lucian and I always do things together. I'd sit on his bicycle as he rode around the school while the students talked about us. Eventually, our homeroom teacher would tell us not to fall in love when we were still young. It would've been nice if we did.

In a daze, a smile surfaced on her countenance before vanishing a few seconds later.

It was because she saw Lucian and Roxanne stepping out of a Rolls-Royce.

So, he still brought her along. I feel somewhat uncomfortable, but then again, I know it's going to happen. Elektra tried to convince herself to accept reality.

Moments later, Lucian approached her with Roxanne. “Did you wait for long, Elektra?”

His voice always mesmerizes me. Nodding, Elektra stared at Roxanne. “Our old principal, Mr. Valentine, is really ill, Ms. Jarvis. He's in a lot of pain. I hope you'll be able to treat him!”

In response, Roxanne nodded. I can see she's still captivated by Lucian, but I'm okay with it. He's an excellent man, after all, so it's only natural he'll constantly attract the attention of countless women. It's not like I can do anything about it. It's his attitude that matters.
