The moment she arrived at the research institute, she received a call from Jack.
She schooled her emotions and answered her phone. “Mr. Damaris, what can I do for you?”
Roxanne's voice reminded him of the incident last night. “Nothing really. I just want to seek your opinion on something. Herbscape Group hopes you can take on the role of technical advisor for them. I think you're up for it, but what are your thoughts?”
Roxanne was stunned by the proposal. It took her a few seconds to agree with a smile. “Since it's something you and Herbscape Group want, I naturally won't say no.”
Jack chuckled. “I'm glad to hear that.”
After discussing some details, both of them ended the call.
When Roxanne put her phone aside, an avalanche of emotions descended upon her again.
According to Jack, my assistance is crucial to the collaboration between Damaris Group and Herbscape Group. Now that I have agreed to take on the role of technical advisor, Lucian would probably be angry with me again when he found out about it.
Realizing what was going through her mind, Roxanne put an end to such thoughts and laughed self-deprecatingly at herself.
The matter has been settled, and the competition between Lucian and Jack has ended. Why would he continue to be involved with me?
Meanwhile, Lucian didn't return to Farwell Group. Instead, he drove straight to Queen Group to see Jonathan, intending to discuss the matter related to Herbscape Group with him.
Jonathan stood up and greeted Lucian with a nod when he saw him making his entrance. “I heard that Herbscape Group has signed the contract with Damaris Group last night. Our plan to takeover Herbscape Group has failed.”
Lucian took a seat opposite him, looking solemn. “Other than Herbscape Group, do you have your eye on any other pharmaceutical companies?”
