After watching as Roxanne got into the taxi, Jack turned around and glanced at the man beside him with a frown.
Judging by their interactions earlier, Jack could tell that the man seemed to be interested in Roxanne. However, his identity was slightly concerning.
Jack took a sidelong glance at Colby with a hint of mockery flashing across his eyes.
It was not until the taxi disappeared from his eyesight that Colby finally withdrew his gaze and met Jack's.
“Mr. Damaris.” A rather unusual feeling surged within Colby at that moment, but he quickly suppressed it.
Jack calmly withdrew his gaze and nodded in response.
“Mr. Damaris, you seem to know what is bothering Dr. Jarvis,” Colby started.
Otherwise, he would not have stepped in and helped Roxanne out of the situation before she could say anything. Besides, the two were clearly together before arriving at the research institute.
Jack merely ached a brow in response. “Dr. Galloway, what are you trying to say?”
Colby could hear the hidden hint of disdain in Jack's tone. Anger swelled in him, but he forced himself to suppress it.
After a few seconds, he said calmly, “I think Dr. Jarvis might be troubled with something related to Mr. Farwell. Earlier, Dr. Jarvis' expression turned slightly grim when I talked about Herbscape Group with her.”
Jack scrutinized him without agreeing or disagreeing with what he said. Instead, he acted surprised and cocked a brow. “Is that so? I don't think I paid attention to that.”
In other words, Jack was mocking Colby for putting all his attention on Roxanne.
