“So, what are we going to eat?”
Since he had already heard her stomach growling, Roxanne decided to be straightforward about it.
Lucian retracted his gaze and replied, “I haven't been here in a long time, so I'm not too sure if that restaurant is still in business. Come on, let's head downstairs.”
The two of them continued chatting as they made their way toward the elevator.
That was when Jack's door opened by a crack, and he could see them as they entered the elevator.
The look in his eyes turned gloomy the moment he saw Roxanne's outfit and recognized the man standing next to her.
That's Lucian! So, he's the one who came to Jadeborough with Roxanne! I can't believe Roxanne declined my dinner invitation only to go out for supper with Lucian! Is it true what the rumors say about their relationship improving because of Essie? If that's the case, then it'll be near impossible for me to win Roxanne over!
Jack's face darkened.
The elevator slowly came to a halt on the first floor, and Roxanne followed behind Lucian as they made their way toward the hotel entrance.
The moment they reached the entrance, Roxanne was filled with regret.
She had chosen a fairly short dress for the sake of convenience. It exposed a huge part of her body to the icy-cold winds at night.
Roxanne wrapped her arms around her body and shivered when a blast of cold wind hit her.
“Wait here for me. I'll head back and—”
She was about to say she would go put on a jacket, but Lucian cut her off by taking his dress shirt off and handing it to her.
