Strangers
Roxanne had no qualms about Lucian's capability in business management.
She relaxed slightly after hearing his reply.
She was confident that Lucian could fix the loss caused by these ten subsidiaries.
Right then, she recalled the unfamiliar woman earlier in the ward. “Is Ms. Lane the one you married?”
Roxanne's eyes were dull as she asked that question.
Even though he did that to save her, the very thought of him marrying another woman made her upset.
In fact, she started to pull her hand away, wanting to keep a distance from him.
There was a hint of anger that flashed across Lucian's eyes as he tightened his grip on her hand when
he noticed her struggles. “Do you have that little trust in me?”
He was talking about Elektra, as well as Archie and Benny's parentage.
Roxanne froze when she sensed his fury. A moment later, a flame of hope began burning in her chest.
Does he mean that there's something else behind this? But he has already gotten the antidote and
saved me. There's no way something else happened instead.
The woman on the bed had just woken up from her coma, so Lucian could not bring himself to be angry
with her. He tamped down his fury and explained in a low voice, “She isn't interested in me in that way,
and that's the same for me. Faking a marriage with her is only one of the steps in going up against
Jack.”
Hearing that, Roxanne felt apologetic. She parted her lips, but she did not know how to apologize to
him.
Something in her mind was telling her that Lucian would not be this angry if that was the only reason.
Right as they were in the middle of a tense silence, some noises came from outside the ward.
Madilyn and Elektra had returned with the doctors.
The doctors strode in, but they were taken aback by the tension in the room just as they stepped
inside.
No one dared to say a word for a moment.
“Roxanne, these doctors were the ones treating you while you were in a coma,” Madilyn said.
Roxanne flashed them a grateful smile. “Thank you for the past few days.”
The doctors glanced at Lucian's expression before waving their hands. “Mr. Farwell's the one who hired
us. If you want to thank someone, thank Mr. Farwell.”
Roxanne turned to the person beside her. “Thank you.”
Lucian frowned in exasperation. He did not speak, but he hummed in acknowledgment.
Roxanne relaxed when she heard that before turning to look at Elektra. “Ms. Lane, I've heard what
happened from Lucian. We're strangers to each other, but you've helped me so much. Thank you.”
Hearing that, Roxanne felt apologetic. She parted her lips, but she did not know how to apologize to
him.
Elektra could tell that Roxanne and Lucian were in a disagreement, so she offered a smile and tried to
ease the tension.
“I only agreed to it when I saw how anxious Lucian was for you. Honestly, I was curious as to what kind
of person you were when I saw how worried he was. After seeing you, I finally understood why he felt
that way. You do seem like a good match for him.”
Roxanne's face burned, and she stole a glance at the man beside her before thanking Elektra again.
Elektra continued smiling and went silent.
“Um...” the doctors carefully started. “We'll be giving the patient a checkup now, so...”
They wanted to ask Lucian and the others to leave the ward, but they dared not voice it out loud at the
sight of Lucian's dark expression.
Fortunately, Roxanne helped them out by saying, “You guys should head outside for now.”
Lucian gave her a long look at that, and she responded with a reassuring smile. “I'm fine now. Besides,
the antidote was something you've gotten on your own. Don't worry.”
Only then did Lucian stand up and leave the room.
