Chapter 616

When Colby wanted to continue updating her about the progress of projects at the research institute, Roxanne stopped him. “I have to take

care of some matters now. You can leave first if there’s nothing important.”

Colby could not quite see the expression on her face as she was facing downward.

Knitting his brows, he glanced at the roses beside her.

It was obvious that the roses had affected Roxanne’s emotions.

In the past, as someone who took her work seriously, Roxanne would have checked on the progress of the projects with him whenever she was

away from the research institute, but she seemed a little different today.

Hence, Colby was overwhelmed by conflicting emotions.

Since he only had limited interaction with Roxanne, he did not know who gave her the flowers.

Most importantly, he had no idea how Roxanne felt about the person.

Roxanne lifted her eyes, noticing Colby was still standing in her office. Giving him a puzzled look, she asked, “What’s wrong? Is there anything

else you want to tell me?”

Colby returned to his senses as he lowered his eyes and replied, “Nothing. I’m going out now. Feel free to call me if you need help.”

Nodding, Roxanne watched him leave the office.

As the door gradually closed, Roxanne was left alone in the office.

She looked away and tried to suppress her anger, hoping to focus on her work.

Yet, the bouquet was so distracting that she could not stop herself from staring at it.

Feeling annoyed, Roxanne put aside her work and walked to the bouquet, but she did not know what to do with it.

She thought Lucian would have listened to her after the call she made last weekend.

I didn‘t erpect him to deliver

the flowers here! Given his character, he‘ll still do it in the future. His action will cause further misunderstanding among my staff if they see this!

Roxanne’s heart started to hurt when she thought of the consequences.

After a short hesitation, she fished out her phone and decided to give Lucian a call.

Meanwhile, Lucian was listening to updates from his subordinates in Farwell Group’s conference room with a deadpan expression.

Deep in his heart, he was a little frustrated with

himself. I wonder how she reacted to the bouquet since I ordered someone to send it to the research institute without her permission.

All the subordinates put their guard up during their presentation as they could sense a chilling aura from Lucian.

All of a sudden, a phone on the table started vibrating, interrupting the meeting.

“Let’s take a break.” Before anyone could react, Lucian picked up his phone and left the conference room.

Everyone in the room exchanged glances upon seeing the CEO’s reaction.

It was the second time Lucian answered a call during the meeting throughout this period.

They wondered if the call was from which influential figure.

At once, all of them started discussing among themselves.

Lucian had no idea what they did behind his back as he went straight back to his office to answer Roxanne’s call.

“What are you trying to do, Mr. Farwell? Did I not make myself clear? Why did you send a bouquet to my workplace?” Roxanne’s voice

emerged from the other end of the phone.

Lucian frowned when he heard what she said.

Roxanne sounded frustrated; she was not touched by what he did at all.

Before Lucian could respond to her, Roxanne continued, “Do you know how grave of a misunderstanding your action can cause, especially

among my staff?”

A deep line formed between Lucian’s brows. “Isn’t that your wish? I only sent the bouquet to the research institute because you didn’t want the

children to know about it.”
