Realizing that Lucian had stopped Joseph in the end, Roxanne somehow felt relieved, and she calmed down.
When she recalled how cold and indifferent Lucian was a second ago and how angry he looked right now, Roxanne found it ironic.
Maybe, in Lucian's eyes, Roxanne's current state would change according to what he wanted.
She was nothing but a toy for him to play around with.
Upon thinking of that, Roxanne scoffed at herself in her mind and curled her lips into a self-deprecating smile. She decided to no longer care about the chaos happening in front of her and made a move to leave.
However, just as she turned around, a large hand reached out to grab her wrist.
Roxanne did not need to turn her head around to know who stopped her.
She glanced at her wrist that was in his grip and said, “Have you had your fun, Mr. Farwell? If so, please let go of me.”
The moment she spoke those words, the expressions of the crowd instantly changed.
All of them had only heard of Lucian and occasionally saw him on television.
That was the reason why they found Lucian familiar when they first saw him.
However, it did not cross their minds that he was actually Lucian Farwell.
As a result, they had offended someone who was connected to Lucian.
Once that thought crossed their minds, panicked expressions could be seen on all of their faces.
Joseph's wrist was still in Lucian's grip. He was experiencing first-hand how oppressing Lucian's domineering aura was. His back was thoroughly drenched in sweat.
If he had known that Roxanne was with Lucian, he would never have even glanced at her.
“Mr. Farwell, t-this is just a m-misunderstanding,” Joseph stammered, trying to defend himself.
Is she trying to escape to look for Morrison again?
