When they arrived in front of the director’s office, Larry coincidentally came out from it. Upon spotting Roxanne, he chuckled and waved to her. “Did you just arrive?”

Roxanne nodded. She wanted to share what had happened earlier. However, there was no time to tell him about it.

“Mr. Damaris is waiting inside, and you should head in soon. This year, not many prestigious families recommended others here. It might only be us two,” Larry stated.

Roxanne was slightly confused by his words. She did not understand how that made a difference.

Before she could ask more, the employee knocked on the office door and invited her in. Quickly, Roxanne had to calm herself and prepare to head inside.

The moment she entered the door, she spotted a skinny young man. Perhaps because of how thin he was, his features were more prominent.

“Mr. Damaris, this is Dr. Jarvis. The Queen family recommended her,” the employee introduced.

The man slowly looked up at Roxanne.

When she met his gaze, Roxanne respectf

When he saw that she was just a young woman, he thought that she was merely a useless person whom the family had recommended. Hence, he ignored her.Larry followed her in.There were two to three doctors in each cubicle, as well as someone from the Damaris family.Their cubicle was the most well-equipped out of all the cubicles. There were two doctors recommended by the prestigious family and a famous traditional medicine doctor. Even Jack was accompanying them personally.When Larry entered, Daniel Hopp’s expression changed. Smiling, he welcomed Larry. “Mr. Morrison, it’s been a long time.”Larry nodded calmly. “Long time no see, Dr. Hopp.”Daniel grinned at him in a flattering manner. He kept following behind Larry and showering him with care. However, he ignored Roxanne completely.Roxanne did not mind his coldness. Instead, she focused on checking all the equipment.

    When Daniel heard Larry’s words, he completely lost all anger. Although he kept quiet timidly, he still could not help but look down on Roxanne.He was one of the top doctors in Chanaea’s traditional medicine scene. Other than those from a few prestigious families, any other traditional medicine doctor would treat him with the utmost respect.He also knew the other famous traditional medicine doctors in Chanaea.However, he had no idea who Roxanne was. It was evident that she was no one spectacular.If she didn’t have Mr. Morrison and Mr. Damaris backing her up, she wouldn’t have dared to speak to me like that!Looking at how Daniel had relented, Larry turned back and nodded at Roxanne to rea*sure her.Roxanne said gratefully, “Thank you, Larry. Don’t worry; I’m doing great now.”Initially, she was quite nervous. However, due to Daniel’s provocation, her anxiety had now been replaced with fury. All she wanted to do was to prove herself to Daniel and erase his prejudice toward her.Lar

    Upon seeing that, the four adults in the room felt their hearts sinking.As for Daniel, he was so shocked that he hurriedly let go of the little one he was holding before rushing forward.The child on the ground had clearly been startled by his earlier action, and that caused the boy to be struck with a violent seizure.According to their diagnosis, the child had a strange condition where startling him would cause a vigorous chain reaction that would put him in great pain. It was their first time encountering such a case.Daniel had merely been trying to change a method to speed up the medical consultation’s progress. He never expected he would startle the boy.Seeing how the pain was torturing the little child, the expressions of the four adults became grim.Roxanne was the first among them to react. She forcefully suppressed the panic in her as she got up and dispersed the children around Jamie. “Please don’t be afraid. We will now help Jamie to get better. In the meantime, why don’

    While Roxanne was treating the kid, the news of what was going on in their cubicle had spread to the others.Many doctors were surprised to hear that Roxanne actually questioned Daniel’s capability. They also became curious when they heard about how she said there was an alternative acupuncture point that could stop the pain. All of them put their work aside and made their way there.The second they got into the room, they saw Roxanne administering the treatment. They judged her by her appearance and didn’t trust her skills. However, they understood how important it was to stay focused when administering treatment, so they stood there quietly.When they saw that Roxanne’s treatment was actually working, they gasped in astonishment.The acupuncture technique involved was something they had never even heard about.Yet, it was obvious that her technique was more ancient than theirs. No one knew where she could have learned that.They couldn’t help applauding when they heard Jack complime

    Once again, only the four of them were left in their cubicle.Roxanne turned around to see how the kids were doing. Sweetly, she asked, “See, kids? The treatment isn’t scary at all, right?”As soon as she finished speaking, Jamie, who had just received treatment, raised his hand and answered, “It’s true. It doesn’t hurt at all, and I feel so much better now!”The little girl had initially been a bit reluctant to receive treatment, but seeing Roxanne’s attitude toward them made her feel more comfortable. Jamie’s words put her at ease as well. “You’re right. It’s nothing to be scared of. Sorry for backing away earlier, Miss.”The other kids nodded in agreement.Roxanne’s heart melted when she saw that. She crouched down to stroke their tiny heads. “Everybody is doing great. I’m glad you’re not scared anymore. Believe in us, okay? We will make sure that everybody will grow up happy and healthy.”The kids nodded obediently.“Okay, who’s next?” asked Roxanne as she stood up and pointed at

    After a bit of coordination, all four doctors were given some patients.Roxanne breathed a sigh of relief and returned to her post to work away.Silence descended upon the cubicle. Occasionally, the sounds of the kids joking and playing around rang out, but they kept it soft. It was almost as though they were worried about disturbing the doctors.The more Roxanne worked, the heavier her heart felt.Their first round was a simple examination of the kids’ pulse and getting an idea of how their health was. Those with more complicated medical issues would have to receive extra treatment.When Roxanne first saw the abandoned kids, she was already heartbroken for them. Actually treating their condition made her feel even worse.Some of the kids had milder issues and could be cured with some medicine or via acupuncture. Unfortunately, the doctors on site couldn’t help those with more complicated issues. All they could do was send the kids to the hospital, where the Damaris family would pay f

    “It looks like the little ones like you a lot, Roxanne.”Alongside Jack, Larry walked over with a plate of food in his hands and sat across from Roxanne. Roxanne greeted him by bobbing her head.After smiling at Jack, she turned around and teased Larry, “I’ve more experience taking care of kids than you. Besides, I always carry some sweets just in case I need to use them to coax children. It’s effective, isn’t it?”If it were not for the sweets, Roxanne believed the children would not have cooperated with her no matter how much they liked her.Jack concurred, “It’s indeed a good trick. We can use it on the children during our medical consultations next time.”Roxanne froze for a moment and pressed her lips into a thin line. “It’s just something I learned from experience since I need to handle my kids.”Jack did not continue with the topic as he was more concerned with her mental state. “There will be more children coming in the afternoon.

    Meanwhile, Roxanne was still lost in a daze. “Madilyn, what…”Cocking a brow, Madilyn stepped aside to usher them in. “Come onboard. I’m here to pick you up.”Roxanne was blown away by the words.Is she asking us to get in the helicopter and leave just like that? We might be able to escape this time, but what about when the reporters come for us again?When she saw Roxanne remaining motionless, the puzzled Madilyn urged her, “Hurry up! What are you still hesitating for? Whatever concerns you have, we’ll discuss it on board.”She extended her hand while speaking.With the helicopter hovering right before her eyes, Roxanne realized that Madilyn’s effort would go to waste if she didn’t get on.Holding that thought, Roxanne took the latter’s hand. Given how close the helicopter was, all she needed to do was take a step forward to board it.After carrying Estella over, Roxanne turned around to do the same with the boys. Little did she expect them to be raring to go.Reciprocating their ent

    It wasn’t until Lucian heard Madilyn’s words that he realized her point and stopped in his tracks.“This whole incident might just blow over if you don’t show up, but it will definitely worsen if you make an appearance. If that happens, they might even swarm Farwell Group along with Roxanne’s house!” Madilyn reminded him.She knew the mentality of those journalists all too well.Lucian clenched his fists so tightly that his veins were bulging from underneath his skin. “What should I do, then?” he asked while trying to suppress his anger.I wouldn’t have acted so impulsively if I knew this would happen!Madilyn rolled her eyes at him in response. Why is he asking us for a solution when he’s the one who caused all this?“Mr. Farwell, how about we send someone over to get Mrs. Farwell out of there?” Cayden suggested cautiously.“How are you going to do that? There are so many journalists around!” Madilyn snapped at him.Cayden fell silent and flashed her an awkward look in response.“If

    News about the Farwell family’s two additional young heirs, who were given birth by Lucian’s ex-wife, caused an uproar in Horington.Of course, the journalists took action almost immediately. No one knew how they got the information, but they found and swarmed around Roxanne’s research institute and mansion.Roxanne was still asleep when she received a call from Linda telling her not to leave the house that day.When Roxanne received that call, she was still in a daze.However, the moment she got out of bed and saw the crowd outside, she panicked.The crowd was clearly there because of Farwell Group’s statement yesterday.Noticing her room’s curtains were pulled open, the crowd downstairs hurriedly focused their cameras in the direction of her room window and began snapping pictures.Shocked, Roxanne hastily drew her curtains.At the same time, her phone rang again.She grabbed it to take a glance, only to see it was from an unknown number.Suspicious, she answered it.

    “It was Lucian who let Essie stay with me. So, if you want to take her away, you’ll have to get his consent first,” Roxanne emphasized without a change in her expression.The little girl in her embrace immediately chimed in, “I’ll do what Daddy says!”As Sonya watched the mother and daughter duo presenting a united front, she felt her temples throb.After all, her son had already made such a statement. The answer she would get could not be more obvious if she made the call.Roxanne’s saying that because she has no plans to let me take my granddaughter away! Most importantly, my son is siding with her. Ugh! I can’t do anything about it.After waiting for some time and seeing that Sonya didn’t take any action, Roxanne said, “If you don’t want to make the call, then please leave now. It’s getting late, and the children are hungry. I don’t have the energy to prepare another person’s portion.”With that, Roxanne put Estella down and gestured for the boys to take Estella upstairs.Once the

    Originally, Sonya did not intend to cause trouble for Roxanne at such an hour.Yet she did not expect her son to release such a shocking announcement on the internet, and she only found out while she was having dinner.Sonya was so incensed that she didn’t even finish dinner. After throwing her cutleries in a rage, she set off and drove to Roxanne’s house.She was determined to make Lucian and Estella cut ties with Roxanne as soon as possible.Now that Sonya saw how dependent Estella was on Roxanne, her anger was further fueled.“Roxanne Jarvis, give me back my granddaughter,” she uttered frostily as if Roxanne had snatched Estella away from her.Sensing Estella’s nervousness, Roxanne gripped the former’s hand to soothe her anxiety. Next, Roxanne lifted her head to face the woman opposite her.If this had happened in the past, Roxanne might not know how to respond to a demand like this.However, things were different now. She was Estella’s mother, so she had the right to keep Estella

    The boys were exhilarated for nearly the whole day after seeing the announcement in the morning.When night fell, Roxanne had just stepped into the house when Archie and Benny flung themselves at her in excitement. “Mommy!”She was slightly perplexed by their gleeful demeanor. “What’s going on? Did something nice happen in the kindergarten?”As soon as she ended her sentence, she glanced at Estella and was puzzled. If something did happen in the kindergarten, why isn’t Essie acting the same way as them?Upon detecting his mother’s confusion, Archie said, “Didn’t you see the news on the internet?”That confounded Roxanne even further. What news on the internet?Excitedly, Benny added, “Mr. Farwell claimed that we’re his children, just like Essie!”Did I hear that right? Lucian said Archie and Benny are his children? How’s that possible? Roxanne was stunned.He could tell his mother was befuddled, so he grabbed the laptop, clicked on a public forum, and showed it to her.Farwell Group’s

    Jonathan’s jaw dropped open in disbelief. If they aren’t his, why does he look so calm in comparison to me, who is freaking out?“What are you thinking?” He shot Lucian an incredulous look. “If you want to help Roxanne by stopping the haters online, then you can just publicize your relationship with her and issue warning letters through your lawyer. Why would you do this?”If it was revealed that the CEO of Farwell Group had claimed to be the biological father of his ex-wife’s children even though they were not his, no one would believe it. It sounded pretty ridiculous, but that was exactly what Lucian did.“If I only did that, the netizens will still a*sume the worst about the boys’ father.” Displeasure flashed across Lucian’s eyes as he explained, “The kids are innocent. If she’s willing to marry me, it will only be a matter of time before the boys become mine, too.”Lucian knew very well that the last thing Roxanne wanted was to drag the kids into her mess, so he was more than wil

    The medicinal herb company owned by the Damaris family was mainly run by their own people, leaving outsiders nothing but envy. Lucian went silent after hearing that.However, that piqued Jonathan’s interest. “Why? Is Roxanne working with the Damaris family again? Do you need my help with anything?”Lucian managed to detect the hint of derision in his voice and snickered. “Go on and acquire the Damaris family’s medicinal herbs company if you’d really like to help.”Jonathan rubbed his nose sheepishly and said, “Well, anything but that.”“Then there’s nothing you can do. Bye.”Lucian hung up the call right after that.Jonathan’s face was full of reproach as he watched his phone screen go dark.That was the second time Lucian had woken him up in the middle of the night and hung up after dropping a bomb on him.It had taken him considerable effort to finally drift off to sleep.Great.
