Chapter 1045 The Answer Is Clear
Roxanne was changing Archie and Benny’s dressing when her phone suddenly rang. When the boys saw the caller
ID on the screen, their eyes lit up.
In contrast, Roxanne’s eyes dimmed. The only matter she had with Lucian at the moment was the matter of the
boys’ injuries.
If nothing else had happened, Lucian had to be calling because he found something regarding the incident. I
wonder if he has found out who the culprit is yet.
“Mommy,” Benny urged. “Mr. Farwell is calling!” Roxanne came back to her senses and smiled at the boys. “Mhm.
I’m going upstairs to take the call. Be careful of your wounds, okay?”
The boys were disappointed to hear that Roxanne was not going to take the call while they were in hearing range.
Nevertheless, Roxanne did not notice their looks of disappointment as she went upstairs and into the study.

“I’ve looked into the matter, and indeed, someone bribed them. However, I still haven’t found who that someone
is,” Lucian said just as Roxanne picked up the call.
Roxanne turned grim upon hearing that. “Have you not found out who it is, or do you not want to tell me the
identity of the culprit?”
She guessed that it was Aubree, and she did not believe that Lucian would not be able to find a single clue pointing
toward Aubree’s involvement after such a long time of investigating.
Lucian frowned. “What do you mean, Ms. Jarvis? I told you that I’d look into this properly for Archie and Benny. If I
had found out who was behind this, why would I hide the identity of the person from you?”
Roxanne sneered. “What if that person is Aubree Pearson, your fiancée? There’s nothing I can do if you want to
cover up for her.”
Lucian froze.
In a mocking tone, Roxanne went on, “Mr. Farwell, are you saying that you still have no leads on who drugged the
kids the other time?”
At that, Lucian’s expression darkened.
Even if Roxanne did not say anything outright, he could guess that Roxanne was telling him Aubree was the one
who drugged the kids.

However, his men had been keeping a close eye on Cory the entire time, and they had not seen Cory contacting
Aubree.
Still, Lucian did not think that Roxanne was accusing anyone; he just wanted concrete evidence for her words.
“Didn’t you always want to know the result of my investigation? I’ll tell you now, then. I found out that a researcher
who used to work at the Pearson family’s research institute stole a batch of bacteria from another institute and is
now missing,” Roxanne uttered coldly. “Is that evidence enough for me to feel suspicious about Aubree’s
involvement?”
Lucian knew little about the bacteria, let alone the fact that Roxanne had already found many clues pointing toward
Aubree’s involvement.

A chuckle came from Roxanne. “Is there a point for me to tell you about it? How am I going to make sure that you
won’t cover up for your fiancée like this time?”
Frankly, this was something she did not want to voice to him, but Aubree had been hurting her children again and
again.
Therefore, Roxanne no longer cared about trying to keep things civil between them.
After a period of silence, Lucian slowly said in an indifferent tone, “We need solid evidence to prove that Aubree’s
behind this. Your words aren’t enough.”
Right as those words left his mouth, a dead silence took over the conversation.
For a long while, Roxanne did not reply to him.
In the end, she laughed, but it was a sound tinged with resignation. “In that case, then I really do not have any solid
proof. There isn’t anything I can do if you think that I’m just slandering her, Mr. Farwell.”
With that, she barked out another self-deprecating chuckle before ending the call.
She thought that the answer would be clear to Lucian after telling him about the clue she found.
Who would have known that Lucian would be that defensive of Aubree?
How was she ever going to find concrete evidence with the power she had?
