Lucian smiled faintly. “If I think lowering the price will benefit us, I'll definitely remain firm in that decision.”
“But Jack can't accept it, and the collaboration will fall apart.” Roxanne did not understand the situation.
That was exactly what she did, and Damaris Group unilaterally terminated the collaboration.
There was no change in Lucian's expression as he said, “I'll force him to work with me.”
Roxanne frowned and studied him. “How?”
“By using public opinion. The Damaris family has been operating their business for more than a century. The public thinks they're benevolent, but they're unwilling to lower the price of the medicines. If this issue is made public, they will have no choice but to lower the price even if it's for the sake of their reputation.”
Roxanne nodded in agreement, feeling as if she had learned something new. But...
Knowing well what was on her mind, Lucian instantly revealed why that method could not work. “But if we do that, the Damaris family's reputation will be affected. I'm not bothered by it, but it's not the case for you.”
Roxanne nodded.
The Damaris family held a very important position in the medical industry. After all those years, Roxanne, too, felt that they were an incredible family.
Moreover, the pricing this time might just be Jack's idea.
Roxanne did not want to ruin the Damaris family's reputation because of that matter.
If she did that, the entire traditional medicine industry would be affected.
She felt utterly defeated. “I can't do that, but I've contacted all the suppliers I know. None of them can replace the Damaris family.”
Lucian arched his brow slightly at her troubled expression. “Perhaps I can help.”
Roxanne's eyes lit up a little, but there was also a hint of hesitation in them. “This is the research institute's problem. I can't keep asking you for help every time.”
“But the matter can't wait, and you're out of ideas.”
Roxanne parted her lips, but she could not say anything to counter his words.
Lucian added, “Anyway, I'm not helping for free.”
