NovelEnglishChapter 946 Panicking Hearing his suggestion, Roxanne was almost convinced but remained hesitant.
After all, Lucian wasn’t in the medical industry. He couldn't recognize many medicinal herbs.
Besides, she also needed the exact dosage.
She couldn't afford the consequences of getting an incorrect dosage.
Lucian had already gotten into his car to start the engine. “I'm going to the research institute now. I'll call you when | arrive, so you need to think about what medicinal herbs you need now.” Without waiting for a response, he cut the line and called Cayden.
“Mr. Farwell, where are you? The meeting...” Cayden felt an incoming headache when Lucian left without looking back, leaving the higher-ups waiting inside the conference room.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLucian ordered, “Something else cropped up, so the meeting is adjourned. They can leave now.” Cayden agreed hastily and entered the conference room to relay his orders.
After giving that order, Lucian hung up and sped toward the research institute.
Roxanne stared at the smartwatch in a daze. She knew there was no other way.
It soon occurred to her that the research institute might be empty as it was the weekend. Lucian might not even get in.
She immediately called Colby.
When Colby answered her call, she didn’t even wait for him to greet her and went straight to the topic. “Dr.
Galloway, where are you now?” Confusion flashed across Colby’s eyes when he heard her question.
Roxanne is callingat this hour. Judging by her tone, did she realize | was the one behind the fire? With that thought in mind, Colby answered warily, “I'm at home. What is this about?” “If possible, can you head to the research institute and open the door for Mr. Farwell? | need his help to get a few medicinal herbs,” Roxanne explained.
Colby relaxed slightly, but he dared not let his guard down. “Got it. I'll be there right away.” He then left his house and headed to the research institute without further delay.
| don’t get it. Why does Lucian have to cto the research institute in person to get the medicinal herbs? Roxanne must've discovered something about the fire and sent Lucian here to investigate with the excuse of getting medicinal herbs for her.
As that possibility occurred to him, Colby promptly sped up.
I cannot let Lucian find out what I did! Twenty minutes later, Colby’s car arrived at the research institute.
There was a Bentley parked outside. Lucian, clad in a grey shirt, was heading to the entrance.
Colby’s heart sank at the sight. He quickly got out of the car and called out, “Mr. Farwell!” Lucian halted in his tracks.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmColby hurried over to him. “Dr. Jarvis calledearlier to askto open the door for you.” He observed the man’s reaction when he spoke.
Lucian was frowning, looking as serious as ever.
Roxanne sounded anxious, so Benny and Essie must be in a dangerous condition.
Even someone like Lucian couldn’t keep his cool under such circumstances.
Seeing his expression, Colby couldn't help but grow more curious. Nevertheless, he didn’t reveal his true emotions and remained respectful.
“What medicinal herbs does Dr. Jarvis need? | can help you get them,” he offered.
Lucian glanced at Colby as though he had just realized the latter was around.
Colby forced himself to stay calm as he met Lucian’s gaze.
He assumed Lucian was about to say something to him. To his surprise, Lucian soon looked away.
