The medicinal herb company owned by the Damaris family was mainly run by their own people, leaving outsiders nothing but envy.

Lucian went silent after hearing that.

However, that piqued Jonathan's interest. “Why? Is Roxanne working with the Damaris family again? Do you need my help with anything?” Lucian managed to detect the hint of derision in his voice and snickered. “Go on and acquire the Damaris family’s medicinal herbs company if you'd really like to help.” Jonathan rubbed his nose sheepishly and said, “Well, anything but that.” “Then there’s nothing you can do. Bye.” Lucian hung up the call right after that.

Jonathan's face was full of reproach as he watched his phone screen go dark.

That was the second time Lucian had woken him up in the middle of the night and hung up after dropping a bomb on him.

It had taken him considerable effort to finally drift off to sleep.

Great. It looks like | won't be able to sleep at all tonight, either! Jonathan lay back down in bed, scrolling through his phone as he attempted to fall asleep.

However, a trending post on social media immediately caught his attention.

The post read: Breaking news! Roxanne Jarvis, the ex-wife of Lucian Farwell, was spotted secretly meeting up with the eldest son of the Damaris family! Jonathan initially thought his eyes were playing tricks on him as he crawled out of bed. He stared at the post for a few more seconds to confirm what he had read before he finally believed what he was seeing. Then, he clicked on the post to find out more.

There were several pictures posted in the thread. In the photos, Roxanne and Jack were sitting face to face at a table by the window of a restaurant, chatting and enjoying each other's company.

There were even a few angles that captured the gleam in Roxanne’s eyes.

Even Jonathan couldn't help speculating about Roxanne and Jonathan's relationship at the sight of the photos. Then, he read the comments on the post.

Netizen A: Roxanne Jarvis? Didn't she just get back together with Mr. Farwell? Netizen B: She didn't clarify the rumors regarding her and Mr. Damaris back then. Now, it seems like there really is something between them! Netizen C: | guess this is the perk of being a pretty girl. She can get two handsome, wealthy men falling head over heels for her at the same time! The comment section was full of slanderous remarks about Roxanne and speculations about her relationship with Jack and Lucian.

Jonathan grew increasingly alarmed as he continued reading the comments.

No wonder Lucian asked me that question just now.

If it were another family, they would have collapsed like the Pearsons or the Hightowers.

I have to say, Lucian has met a formidable opponent this time. | wonder what Roxanne thinks, though.

Sleep eluded Jonathan after he saw the post, and he immediately sent Lucian the link to the post.

Meanwhile, Lucian just got back to the Farwell residence.

Confused upon seeing the link Jonathan sent him, he asked: What's this? Jonathan replied: Just click the link. Otherwise, you're going to regret it tomorrow morning.

Lucian furrowed his brow when he read Jonathan's reply. He clicked on the link while washing up.

The title of the post made him stop brushing his teeth abruptly.

Following that, his face sank when he saw the photos inside the thread.

He had to admit that both Jack and Roxanne were excellent doctors, and he believed Roxanne when she told him that they only met up to talk about medicine. However, he had never imagined that Roxanne would be so happy while she was with Jack.

She had never smiled at him like how she did with Jack.

Grabbing a towel, he wiped his face dry and walked out of the bathroom before sitting on his bed, scrolling through the comment section with a solemn look on his face.

His face turned dark as thunder as he read the myriad of speculations about Roxanne’s relationship with Jack.
