Ex-Wife Don't Leave, Love Is Coming Again! novel Chapter 1581

“As far as I know, Mr. Damaris' vision for this project was to give patients a fighting chance. I don't think there's anything wrong with that.” Despite her efforts to explain, some team leaders continued to whisper among themselves, casting suspicious looks in her direction.

The conference room was so quiet that she could hear one of the leaders whisper.

“If anyone has any concerns, please don't hesitate to voice them. I'm here to listen,” Roxanne said courteously while looking at the team leader.

The team leader turned around and met her gaze. After a few seconds of silence, he expressed his doubts. “Ms. Jarvis, you were the only one who negotiated with Damaris Group, and we had been kept in the dark throughout the negotiation.”

Roxanne lowered her gaze slightly and responded softly, “I'll explain everything if you wish to know what transpired.”

She felt a little uneasy as she looked at the faces before her.

Undoubtedly, she had acted unilaterally and set the price without consulting her team.

After witnessing the change in Jack's behavior, Roxanne realized she could not tolerate how apathetic medical practitioners were toward patients.

Everyone fixed their gazes on her, waiting for her to explain.

Roxanne gathered her courage and said, “I proposed a price of a hundred twenty for the medicine, but Mr. Damaris insisted on three hundred.”

A heavy silence settled in the room after she uttered those words.

Roxanne could see how serious they were, and it seemed they began to understand the picture.

“Sorry, but I want to know why you set that price.” A team leader finally voiced out his doubt.

Roxanne tried to stay composed and explained, “I want patients to be able to afford the medicine. Doing so might incur losses in the short term, but the long-term benefits are worth it. By doing so, we'll also improve the reputation of the research institute.”
