Chapter 734 Quick Turnaround
That very night, the Queen family announced that Roxanne was the one who had cured Alfred’s sickness, resulting in the latter nominating her as a candidate for the Damaris family’s project.
The internet went abuzz right after that.
In a short span of time, those who were initially against Roxanne now sided with her, although there were some who still questioned her ability.
Roxanne was astounded to suddenly receive such an update before going to bed.
She had once thought of asking Alfred to help clear the air, but she also didn’t want to involve him in the whole ordeal.
Yet, the Queen family had decided to help her voluntarily.
Thanks to that, the situation was now far more controlled compared to during the day, even if some remained doubtful of her.

Not wanting to disrupt Alfred’s quiet time, Roxanne decided to dial Jonathan’s number.
The latter had just finished taking care of his family’s PR errands when he answered Roxanne’s call.
“I just saw the announcement made by your family. Thank you for speaking up for me, Mr. Queen,” the woman said with gratitude.
Jonathan let out a profound chuckle. “Don’t just thank me. To be honest, I took a lot of risks over this matter. I wouldn’t necessarily have spoken up if it were just for your sake.”
Roxanne froze briefly upon hearing that, and she thought back to the similar tone he had used during the medical consultation back at the orphanage.
She had thanked him under the assumption that he had helped her when it was, in fact, Lucian’s decision all along.
Did he do something again?
“Did Lucian go and look for you?” Roxanne surmised.
Jonathan’s laughter came through the phone instantly. “That’s right. Well, I did consider taking action, but it was Lucian’s personal phone call that really convinced me to make the announcement. So if you want to express your gratitude, I’m not the only one you should be thanking.”
Conflict swirled within Roxanne’s heart.
So that phone call he made on the balcony while I was making dinner was to Mr. Queen? He was asking him to make an appearance and help me. He probably would’ve continued to keep this from me if Mr. Queen hadn’t explained anything.
Roxanne felt perplexed at the thought of this.
“I will, Mr. Queen. Thank you,” she finally responded, concealing her mixed emotions. “I’ll thank Old Mr. Queen in person another time.”
