Chapter 645
The man’s domineering presence silenced the crowd.
Someone in the crowd finally came back to their senses when Lucian walked past them and whispered, “It’s Mr. Farwell!”
Upon hearing those words, the crowd erupted into an uproar. They did not even care about their reputation anymore as they stared at Lucian’s back.
Although they were all from prestigious families in Horington, they were ants in comparison to Lucian. Moreover, they could barely have the chance to see Lucian in person.
Therefore, now that they had the chance to do that, they couldn’t help staring at him to their hearts’ content.
Lucian’s face was an eye candy for all.
Roxanne could only stay rooted to her spot in the middle of the crowd as she watched the mant amble toward her. The look on her face had frozen, and she did not know what kind of reaction she should have at that moment. It seems that I have had ill luck recently. Not only is a drunkard seeking trouble with me at work, but Lucian’s here at such horrendous timing. And it’s right after Lucian said those things to me.
Even though they were still a distance away from each other, Roxanne could sense the man’s. on her and the tinge of anger in that gaze.

Roxanne wanted to turn in an attempt to flee when the thought of escaping never even occurred. to her when Jessica was swearing at her.
However, Lucian’s mere gaze was enough to make her feel like running away.
Yet, the man’s gaze was like a nail that pinned her to her spot and forced her to stay.
Roxanne quietly clenched her fists to calm herself down.
“Jack, I really love you. Apart from being a better doctor, what else does Roxanne have that’s better than what I have?”
Jessica was still babbling away.
However, Jack was no longer focused on her; he was staring at Roxanne with a complicated look.
The last time he sent Roxanne back, he had witnessed the interaction between Roxanne and Lucian and found the air between the two to be strange.
As Roxanne was still going to work with the Damaris family, Jack had taken the effort to look into her history.
Unexpectedly, he had found out about what had happened to Roxanne and Lucian six years ago.
Back then, Jack had thought about how Lucian was a fool.
However, now that he was seeing the two in the same space again, he found himself thinking differently.

Similarly, Larry had a frown on his face, as he was worried on behalf of Roxanne.
Time seemed to have slowed down.
After what felt like cons, Lucian came to a stop right beside Roxanne, his shoulders almost touching hers.
“Ms. Jarvis, you’ve rejected me so firmly, but surprisingly, you’re so sweet to another man. It’s already so late at night, but you’re fine with tolerating his admirer shouting in your face.” Those words were whispered into Roxanne’s ear. When Lucian’s hot breath tickled her ear, she froze.
By the time she realized what he was doing, the man had already turned around to face the crowd with her.
His words made Roxanne’s heart lurch, for she had no idea what he was about to do.
The moment the crowd saw that the two were standing with each other, they stopped focusing on Jessica.
