NovelEnglishChapter 809 Deteriorating Relationship After giving Lucian an indifferent nod, Jonathan looked at his friend in a thoughtful manner. “I heard that Dr.
Jarvis has not only participated in the collaboration between Damaris Group and Herbscape Group, but the latter has also offered her the role of technical advisor. | wonder what her thoughts about the matter are.” That was the first tLucian had heard about it. His heart clenched, and his already gloomy expression darkened further. “I don’t know.” He had thought that Roxanne would be more cautious after he had revealed to her how Jack had snatched Herbscape Group away from him the day before.
Yet little did he expect Herbscape Group to directly approach Roxanne to be their technical advisor. As the possibility of her agreeing to it crossed his mind, Lucian couldn't help but feel incensed.

With how eligible he is, he could've had any woman he wanted. Instead, not only he insisted on keeping his eye on Roxanne, but he also failed in his pursuit despite all the effort he expended.
Jonathan cleared his throat, suppressed the surprise within him, and commented with a smile, “Well, you were at fault six years ago. It only makes sense for Dr. Jarvis to resent you for it.” The mere mention of the past made Lucian scowl.
The two times Roxanne had gotten drunk had shown him how much hurt he had inflicted upon her six years ago.
He no longer felt the right to complain about her resentment toward him and the distance she had placed between them.
All he wanted to do now was to make amends.
Having innocently assumed that Lucian had made progress in his pursuit, Jonathan had simply wanted to tease his friend.
But to his surprise, he ended up rubbing salt in Lucian’s wound.

As long as you seize the opportunity, Dr. Jarvis will surely forgive you.” “How do | redeem myself?” Jonathan was stunned. He didn’t expect Lucian to take his casual remark seriously.
How do you redeem yourself? How would | know what happened between the two of you? Since he had inadvertently brought up the difficult topic, Jonathan had no choice but to force himself to cup with a solution. “Since you hurt Dr. Jarvis six years ago and want her to forgive you for it, you obviously need to let her feel that you love her.” “But | already did as you said.” Lucian had been given her flowers and confessing his feelings for her. On top of that, he even had the three children help him behind the scenes.
Yet, Roxanne refused to believe in his feelings for her. In fact, when they had gone their separate ways in the morning, he could feel that their relationship seemed to have deteriorated.
The worst part was Lucian didn’t even know what the problem was.
Jonathan almost choked on himself.
When it comes to pursuing women, | am still superior to this hard-hearted friend of mine despite my lack of experience. Also, | have the advantage of having a sister. All this while, Frieda has always been very popular and has plenty of suitors.
With that thought in mind, Jonathan began to rack his brains to recall what those men had done while courting his sister.
