Frieda returned to the Queen residence right away.
Jonathan was listening to his assistant's report in the house.
Out of all the invitations they had sent, a few reclusive famous doctors were unable to attend while the others had declined the request altogether.
In short, not one of them accepted the invitation.
Jonathan understood those reclusive experts, who could be experienced and set in their ways, probably had plans of their own.
The Queens were not particularly close to the reclusive experts they had invited, so they thought using Alfred's name to reach out to them might help.
Under normal circumstances, Jonathan would not have handled their rejection well, but the fact that his closest friend's partner was in danger caused him to feel a sense of panic.
Jonathan stood up anxiously. “Buy me a plane ticket. I'll go there and meet them in person!”
The assistant could only stay silent and keep up with him.
When they were about to leave the mansion, they bumped into Frieda, who was entering the house. “Jonathan, where are you going? I found someone who can save Roxanne.”
Frieda's expression lacked joy. Instead, a hint of smugness lingered on her face as she conveyed the news to Jonathan.
Upon noticing the expression on Jonathan's face, she knew he had not found anyone. Yes! I won!
Jonathan was visibly anxious and eager to find out the expert she had managed to contact. “Who did you manage to get?”
Frieda cleared her throat and said, “I spoke to someone who provided me with the contact of Peregrine Lomax—Merania's King of Medicine!”
