Beneath the Surface

A wave of fury crashed through Aubree upon the thought of Lucian and Roxanne being together. Why does this woman keep showing up everywhere?However, she forced a smile as she couldn’t express her disgust for Roxanne since Lucian was around.On the other hand, Roxanne never thought Aubree would call out to her when she was about to leave.It would have been rude of her if she ignored Aubree.With that thought in mind, Roxanne paused in her tracks, turned around, and greeted Aubree coldly, “It’s been a while, Ms. Pearson.”Aubree smiled. “If I remember correctly, your kids don’t study here. So what brings you here today, Ms. Jarvis? Are you planning to transfer them to this kindergarten so they can attend school with Essie?”Roxanne’s heart sank at that.She could tell what Aubree was hinting at even though she didn’t say it straight to her face.Aubree was accusing her of using Archie and Benny to approach Lucian by transferring her two kids to the same kindergarten as Estella.Roxan

Unveiled Intentions

“I’ll be picking Essie up this evening. Go back to your meeting,” Lucian said to Aubree in a frosty tone. The woman dared not say anything else.After all, it had been hard for her to get him to give her another chance, and she did not want to mess things up again.Only after watching Lucian leave did Aubree plod back into her car.However, she did not drive toward Pearson Group.The meeting she mentioned earlier was only a lie to make Lucian think that Estella was important to her.The Pearsons had come to one tacit conclusion—Aubree’s most important task was to get Lucian to marry her as soon as possible.Hence, her father had been taking care of everything in Pearson Group while she only went there once in a while. Most of her time was spent thinking of ways to get in Lucian’s good graces.Just as her hard work was finally coming to fruition, Roxanne’s few sentences destroyed all the time and effort she had poured into the matter.Enraged, Aubree wished she could skin Roxanne aliv

Confrontation and Consequences: Protecting Family

Aubree was getting out of line. Afraid that Archie and Benny could hear her, Roxanne decided to open the door and confront her. “Are you done, Ms. Pearson? If you are, please leave,” she uttered.When Aubree saw that Roxanne had finally stepped out of the mansion, she became even more enraged. “How dare you come out! What is it? Are you hoping for Lucian to come over to help you?” she snarled at the sight of the latter’s face.Annoyed, Roxanne frowned. “As I’ve said before, I’ll distance myself from them. I only went to the kindergarten today because I wanted to know how Essie was doing. If those kids didn’t bully her, I wouldn’t have met Mr. Farwell, and no one would’ve known I was there.”Then, she enunciated a promise. “From now on, as long as Essie is well, I’ll stay out of your lives.”“You’ve got to be kidding me!” Disdain was written all over Aubree’s face. “Do you think I would still believe your words? Where are those two b*stards? Get them to come out! I want to show them t

Chemical Reactions and Consequences: A Dangerous Discovery

Roxanne’s spirits finally lifted at the mention of their research. We successfully completed the first stage of our research this morning, proving that the efforts we’ve put in all this time haven’t been in vain. Starting tomorrow, we’ll be embarking on a new and even more challenging stage!Just thinking about the results their research would bring filled her heart with anticipation.She also greatly welcomed Jack’s a*sistance. “I’d be honored if you could come and help us, of course. Why would I find you a nuisance?”He let out a low chuckle. “That’s good to know. It’s late, so I shan’t disturb you any further. See you tomorrow.”Roxanne a*sented with a laugh.Thanks to Jack’s phone call, she gradually felt calmer. Finally, she drifted into a peaceful sleep while thinking about the new research she would be doing the following day.Early the following morning, she sent Archie and Benny to the kindergarten, then hurried to the research institute.She thought she was early, but to he

Chemical Crisis and Corporate Concerns: A Dangerous Experiment

Arriving at the corridor with better ventilation, Jack asked Roxanne about her condition concernedly, “How are you feeling?” He had been near the flask’s opening as well, but his symptoms of poisoning were not as severe because he reacted in time.Roxanne’s head was spinning terribly. Still, she forced herself not to succumb to vertigo. Staring at the research facility’s entrance, she asked, “H-Has everyone moved out of the building?”The gas was very poisonous and spread rapidly.She was afraid there might be other researchers who were poisoned as well.The sight of her still worrying about others when she was in that sickly state tugged at Jack’s heartstrings. “Dr. Galloway is already evacuating the premise. Don’t worry.”After answering her, he grasped her wrist to check her condition.Instinctively, Roxanne wanted to avoid the physical contact, but she did not even have the strength to lift her arm.“Something is very off with this reaction. This poisonous gas shouldn’t be presen

Stalemate in the Office: Jack's Treatment Dilemma

Back at the research institute, Jack carried Roxanne into her office. Even though the hallway was spacious and he could’ve just treated Roxanne there, concerned employees would occasionally stick their noses into the situation.Plus, he also needed a quiet environment to treat Roxanne.At the same time, Colby returned to the hallway after sending the message only to find out Jack and Roxanne were gone.“Where’s Dr. Jarvis?”Colby grabbed one of the researchers, his expression grim.The researcher was briefly taken aback before pointing at Roxanne’s office. “I think I saw Mr. Damaris carrying her into the office.”A dark glint flashed across Colby’s eyes when he heard that. He then nodded at the researcher. “Thanks.”Before the researcher could respond, Colby strode toward the office.I just took my gaze off them for one second, and Jack took that window to create an opportunity for them to be alone. Luckily, I’m confident in my skill. I’m sure there’s no way Jack can easily succeed i

Clash at the Research Institute: Roxanne's Rescue

Please excuse me,” Jack said to the unconscious Roxanne before carefully reaching out to undo her button. Colby was grimacing as he watched Jack’s actions.Right as Jack undid Roxanne’s first button, a series of rapid footsteps rang out from outside the office.Colby’s eyes lit up, but he quickly suppressed his excitement and looked at the door in faked confusion.On the other hand, Jack was too focused on treating Roxanne, so he did not hear the sounds at all.For ventilation purposes, the door to the office was wide open.The very second Lucian stepped into the office, he saw what Jack was doing.“What are you doing?”Lucian already disliked Jack because of the latter’s relationship with Roxanne.Thus, he turned livid when he was greeted by the sight of Jack trying to take advantage of Roxanne while she was unconscious, and he dashed over right away.Before Jack could react, he was punched in the face and stumbled a few steps back before finally regaining his balance.“What are you

Racing Against Time: Roxanne's Critical Condition

No. That’s not possible. Jack wasn’t around when I did it. Moreover, Roxanne’s unconscious right now, so I’m the only one with the right to check the surveillance cameras of the lab. No one will be able to check the footage without my permission. Even if Jack is suspicious about my involvement, there’s nothing he can do if I deny everything. With that thought in mind, Colby relaxed. “Weren’t you the one who has been working on the experiment with Dr. Jarvis lately? I wasn’t sure about your experiment’s details, and that’s why I didn’t dare to open the bottle right away—that’s why I asked you guys to take a look at it.”In other words, he was implying that he had stayed away from the lab countertop to ensure that the experiment would go smoothly without his presence.After hearing his explanation, Jack looked at him skeptically before saying, “Dr. Galloway, don’t you think it’s such a coincidence? Why did something happen precisely when I wasn’t around?”Colby shrugged, his expression

A Race Against Time: Lucian's Anxious Wait

The seconds continued to tick by, but the doors to the emergency room remained shut. Lucian’s heart grew increasingly heavy as he waited in the silent corridor outside.There are at least five specialists in there! What is taking them so long? How is Roxanne doing? Maybe I should just open the doors and go check on her! No, I can’t do that! I need to be rational here. Stay calm, Lucian…Having dismissed that thought, Lucian slumped weakly against the bench in the corridor.It’s just like what the director said. Roxanne is a doctor who has saved countless lives in the past. She is kind, so I’m sure she’ll be all right. For the sake of the two kids, she will definitely do whatever it takes to make it through!He was snapped out of his train of thought when his phone started ringing all of a sudden.Thinking that it could be something important, Lucian quickly whipped his phone out of his pocket.However, his face sank when he saw Aubree’s name on the caller ID, and he declined the call

Unspoken Fears: Cayden's Unease and Estella's Apprehension

Cayden was still feeling uneasy even after he had successfully picked Archie and Benny up from the kindergarten. For some reason, he felt as though he could see Lucian’s shadow in their eyes when they were staring at him earlier.There’s no mistaking that suspicious look in their eyes. They definitely think I’m hiding something!Sure enough, Archie asked the moment he got into the car, “Mr. Lawson, is our mommy really with Mr. Farwell right now?”Unsure of what to say, Cayden pretended to not hear the boy’s question and continued driving toward Roxanne’s house.“Mr. Lawson, are you hiding something from us?” Benny started questioning him as well.Since they were unable to get any answers out of him, they began coming up with their own theories in the back seat.Fearing that they would end up hitting the nail on the head, Cayden said, “Why would I lie to you two? Mr. Farwell gave Ms. Jarvis a batch of medicinal herbs for her research, so she’s working overtime to take inventory. I thi
