Chapter 1273
Mild disgruntlement stained Lucian’s face. “Why did he come?” “The experiment Dr. Galloway
tampered with was under Damaris Group’s project. Naturally, Mr. Damaris needed to come over and
check on the situation,” Roxanne explained patiently.Right after saying that, she frowned and chided,
“Your attitude was horrible. Not only did you misunderstand him for such a long time previously, but you
were even hostile with him earlier. Shouldn’t you have apologized to him?”Lucian’s expression
darkened frightfully, but in her presence, he still kept a leash on his temper. “That’s impossible.”Jack
must have some other motive to have come over. It was certainly not as simple as checking on the
situation. It’d be more apt to say that he came to provoke me!Roxanne was entirely oblivious to the
silent battle that had ensued between the two men’s gazes earlier. Consequently, she found his
resolute refusal pretty unreasonable.“Where exactly did your hostility toward Mr. Damaris come from?
Back at the hospital, it was because you suspected him of being the culprit who tampered with the
experiment. But now, it has been proven that the matter had nothing to do with him. In fact, he was also
a victim. Why do you still have such prejudice toward him now?”When she had finished saying that,
something abruptly occurred to her, and she added, “Even if you were rivals with him in the past, it has
all ended now. That aside, you won. Why—”Without waiting for her to complete her sentence, Lucian
interrupted with a frown, “It has nothing to do with that matter.”Words eluded Roxanne, and she was
wholly perplexed.She racked her brain relentlessly, but there seemed to be only one possible
answer.Could it be that… he’s still jealous?At that thought, she eyed the grim-faced man beside her in
disbelief.Lucian’s brows were scrunched together deeply, and he didn’t appear inclined to explain
things. “You think that Mr. Damaris has feelings for me?” Roxanne ventured.Lucian met her gaze
without answering that, but the look in his eyes affirmed her conjecture.Unbidden, panic flooded
Roxanne. “How could that be? Mr. Damaris and I are only collaboration partners. If he truly has designs
on me—”“Didn’t you fail to perceive Colby’s interest in you?” Lucian was displeased by her adamant
defense of Jack.Speaking of that, Roxanne couldn’t help feeling guilty.Indeed, it’d never crossed my
mind at first that Colby would have romantic feelings toward me. But Jack… Well, I can’t think of any
reason he’d take a fancy to me.Glimpsing her skepticism, Lucian elaborated solemnly, “He treated you
to meals and even gave you flowers. Additionally, he tried to win Archie and Benny over.”He
methodically recounted everything Jack had done.All that left Roxanne without a retort.Indeed, Jack did
all that. But then, they can be justified.Still, she tried to convince herself otherwise.Unfortunately,
Lucian gave her no chance of doing so, continuing, “If I remember correctly, you accepted all the
flowers he gave you.”When his words drifted into Roxanne’s ears, she hadn’t yet dispelled all her
doubts. A sense of guilt inexplicably rose within her.Lucian didn’t stop there, his voice persisting.
“Contrarily, you were exceedingly reluctant to accept the flowers I gave you. Was it because you didn’t
like them?”At his repeated questioning, Roxanne could only bite the bullet and nod in response,
pretending that she disliked roses.She relented because the man seemingly wanted to speak further,
and she was afraid that he would give her flowers every day as before.“Never mind if you don’t want to
apologize to Mr. Damaris. There’s nothing between us, so don’t overthink things.”Only then did Lucian
cease talking about that subject.Roxanne secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
