Chapter 1616 Speak To Her

Upon leaving the Damaris residence, Jack drove back to Damaris Group.

On the way back, he replayed the live stream of the press conference.

The sight of how loving Roxanne and Lucian were filled him with frustration.

Upon arriving at Damaris Group, he quickly noticed the strange looks his staff was giving him.

Evidently, news of Roxanne forming a partnership with Farwell Group had become public knowledge.

“What are you looking at? Go back to your desks!” Jack barked.

The crowd gradually retracted their gazes as they returned to their stations.

Upon storming back into his office, Jack slammed the door behind him.

“Mr. Damaris...” Kevin entered warily. “With regard to the medicinal herbs that we have reserved for the research institute, should we continue to set them aside?”

Previously, Jack had ordered it to be done, for he was certain that Roxanne would change her mind and collaborate with him.

Little did he expect her to form a partnership with Farwell Group and Queen Group instead.

Upon a long deliberation, he answered coldly, “Leave them as it is. Call Ms. Jarvis and arrange a meeting. I would like to speak to her.”

Even if Roxanne had come to an agreement with the other two companies, Jack didn't believe they would be able to send medicinal herbs over to the research institute on such short notice.

He still stood a chance as long as he could speak to her before she received the herbs.

Upon receiving the instructions, Kevin did as he was told.

Roxanne picked up the call without a moment's delay.

“Ms. Jarvis, I'm Mr. Damaris' assistant. I wonder if you have time to spare, as Mr. Damaris would like to have a chat with you.”

The press conference had just ended, and Roxanne was on the way home with Lucian.

Kevin's proposal caused her to look at Lucian by reflex.

In response, Lucian nodded, indicating that it was up to her.

Retracting her gaze and pursing her lips, Roxanne flatly replied, “Please tell Mr. Damaris that my decision is firm and there's nothing for us to discuss. I have found new partners to work with. The only thing left to talk about is compensation. That is something you should speak to my lawyers about.”

With that, Roxanne ended the call.

Satisfied with Roxanne's decisive response, Lucian held her hand with a smile.

Meanwhile, a grim look descended upon Kevin's face, causing Jack's expression to change drastically.

“What did she say? When does she have time?”
