Chapter 1373
They were slurping their pasta when Roxanne’s phone rang.

Roxanne’s gaze shifted to the caller ID on her phone before she shot a quick, apprehensive look at Lucian. It was clear she was unsure whether to answer or not.

Sensing her gaze, Lucian immediately knew who it was. “It’s Jack, isn’t it?”

Roxanne nodded. “I told him I might be late, so he’s probably calling to find out what happened. I’ll head out to answer it.”

She got up, ready to leave.

However, Lucian stopped her. “You can answer it here. It’s related to work, anyway.”

In other words, he was saying that Roxanne had no reason to hide from him if it was a work call.

Roxanne returned to her seat and answered the call. “Mr. Damaris.”

Jack’s tired voice rang out. “I’m sorry. I was busy with the medical consultation and just got a chance to look at my phone. What happened?”
