It didn't take long for Jack to send Roxanne the address of the meeting place.
She took a glance at the message and noticed that the place he had chosen was the cafe where they had a fight previously.
I guess he's trying to use the chance to humiliate me, huh?
If this had happened in the past, Roxanne would have rejected to meet with him without hesitation.
However, since she was at her wit's end, she could only make the appointment on time.
When she arrived, Jack was already seated in the cafe, casually fiddling with the aroma lamp at the side.
He showed no response even when he saw Roxanne enter the cafe.
Roxanne lowered her eyes and greeted him, “Mr. Damaris.”
Looking as if he had just noticed her, Jack turned his head and flashed her a polite smile. “Ms. Jarvis, you're here. I didn't notice you. Come, have a seat.”
Roxanne gave a slight nod before sitting down beside Jack calmly, only to see him still messing about with the aroma lamp nonchalantly.
Sensing her gaze, Jack explained in a low voice, “The fragrance in the lamp has a calming effect. In order to avoid getting into a fight with you like last time, I'm trying to make it burn faster.”
His confident tone made it seem as if the aroma lamp would really have an effect.
Roxanne retracted her gaze and pursed her lips. Smiling, she said, “If you have the same goal as me, Mr. Damaris, we would naturally not quarrel.”
