This Is Who You Always Are
As Roxanne felt the pain in her wrist, she inhaled sharply and lifted her eyes to stare at Lucian warily.
The latter’s expression was so dark that it was frightening.
After a long while, he inched toward her abruptly. She wanted to back away. Yet, he was gripping her
wrist, which made it hard for her to move.
For a moment, the distance between them was so close they could almost feel each other’s breath.
Subconsciously, Roxanne slowed down her breathing and clenched her fists that were hanging by her
sides.
She felt Lucian’s intense gaze on her as he stared at every inch of her body while tightening his grip on
her wrist.
Just when she thought he was going to do something to her, he let go of her wrist unexpectedly.
Roxanne was taken aback by his action.
“Herbscape Group still has some stock in another city for those medicinal herbs. I can get someone to
send them to you as soon as possible if you need them.” Lucian spoke in a deep and awkward tone.
Indeed, he almost lost control when Roxanne ignited his rage.
However, he recalled his purpose of coming over and also Jonathan’s words this morning. Hence, he
resisted acting impulsively.
Doubts filled Roxanne’s eyes when she heard his statement, for what he said didn’t match his attitude
at all.
Yet, after staring at him for a long while, she noticed nothing odd in his expression at all.
Therefore, she had no choice but to believe him. She replied coldly, “Thank you, Mr. Farwell. But we
don’t need it.”
In truth, they really needed the medicinal herbs. But Colby had told her that he would figure it out.
Besides, Roxanne had no reason to accept Lucian’s inexplicable act of kindness.
The atmosphere around Lucian immediately became gloomy when he heard her rejection.
Without hesitation, Roxanne pulled herself away from him before he could reach out to her and
increased the distance between them.
“I don’t know why you want to help the research institute so suddenly. But, considering your business
strategies, I think it’s best if we avoid getting involved with you.”
With that, Roxanne raised her head and looked at Lucian as if she was insinuating something. “After
all, I can’t be certain about the method you’ll use to deal with us if something bad happens during our
collaboration.”
She was referring to Lucian’s retort against her words earlier.
If Lucian really wanted to take action against the research institute, it wouldn’t be as simple as starting
a fire.
Lucian’s expression darkened when he caught the meaning behind her words. “What kind of person do
you think I am?”
Roxanne avoided his gaze and responded nonchalantly, “I’m not thinking anything. This is who you
always were.”
Herbscape Group was a huge pharmaceutical company. Yet, it was destroyed within days after Farwell
Group took action against it.
Lucian’s business strategies were truly horrifying. Moreover, Roxanne was just working in a small
research institute. There was no way she would risk the research institute just to go against Lucian.
Lucian narrowed his eyes dangerously. “Herbscape Group backed out on the contract first, and they
play an important role in my project. What’s the issue with me using my way to get my project back on
track? As for your tiny research institute, is there even a worthy reason for me to take action against
it?”
Roxanne remained unfazed. “Maybe there isn’t any reason right now, but we can never guarantee what
will happen in the future.”
Besides, she hadn’t found out who was the mastermind behind the fire that happened at the research
institute. Thus, she couldn’t put her trust in Lucian so soon.
