Roxanne turned to look at Lucian. “It’s Starlight Group in Hawen, Lucien!” she softly claimed. Immediately, Lucian’s face sank, and his brows scrunched up tightly.
At the sight of the couple’s reactions, Madilyn was perplexed. “What is it? Is there anything special about Starlight Group? According to what I remember, that’s the largest international trading company in Hawen, right?”
Lucian nodded. “You’re right. But there’s a big possibility they won’t give us the antidote.”
“Why?” Madilyn was still filled with puzzlement. Gloominess rose in Roxanne’s heart. “That’s because the owner of Starlight Group is Mr. Goldstein. He’s the man whom Christina is with currently. You know who Christina Patel is, right?”
Madilyn’s jaw dropped upon learning the truth. Christina? Isn’t she the mastermind behind Elektra’s incident? Also known as Aubree Pearson, who was ready to fight Roxanne to death and was once Lycian’s fiancée!
“So, everything that has happened is a part of Christina’s scheme again.” A vicious glint flashed across Lucian’s gaze. He had been wary of Christina, but little did he imagine that she would play such a ruse. The current situation was just like a slap in his face!
D*mn it! That woman keeps showing up everywhere! And it seems like she’s confident Roxanne would come over to help. She must’ve wanted Roxanne to get infected as well. But she probably doesn’t know Roxanne is pregnant. Her ruthlessness has reached the point where she’s even putting others’ lives at stake!
Noticing how Roxanne and Madilyn were overwhelmed by panic, Lucian glanced at the screen and placidly uttered, “I’ll resolve the matter over acquiring the drug for the bacteria. We won’t need to get it from Starlight Group. Now, all you two have to do is to ensure those infected are in good condition. I’ll need about an hour to settle it!”
Madilyn was dumbfounded. Roxanne, too, was in disbelief. Even if Lucian gets the medication from Moranta’s pharmaceutical company directly and uses the fastest flight to send them back, it’s still not something he can resolve in an hour.
Nonetheless, having seen the confident look on Lucian’s face, Roxanne suddenly had a thought in mind, and immediately after, a smile bloomed on her face as she nodded.
Madilyn’s mind was in a mess, all thanks to the couple. How can they still be so relaxed and smiling away at this juncture? “I’ll make a call now. It’ll be done in no time!” With that, Lucian left the office hurriedly.
“Roxanne, what are you couple planning to do? Hurry up and tell me, or else I won’t be at ease. There are already over twenty doctors and nurses who are infected. Including the two of us, we’ll need a lot of medications!” Madilyn’s heart was filled with uneasiness.
Roxanne chuckled. “Don’t forget that I have a research institute! As long as we get the production process of the medication, I can ensure that my research institute will be able to develop a drug of similar effect within two hours. So, like what Lucian mentioned, we still have ample time!”
Clarity washed over Madilyn. Oh yes. Roxanne formulated the antidote herself when Jack poisoned her the other time. It was only with such assurance that Madilyn felt relieved.
Soon after, the Centers for Disease Control’s personnel arrived at the hospital and looked for Madilyn to learn more about the situation. As such, she rushed to the conference room to give them a brief report.
By the time Lucian returned, he was visibly calm as if he had settled the matter.
“I spent three hundred million to get the information on the medication’s composition. They’ll send it to me in about fifteen minutes. By then, you shall inform Old Mr. Lomax’s side to begin production. They won’t need too much time for that. Anyway, I think I can say it now. I most likely got infected as well. I have the urge to cough too.”
Finishing his words, Lucian could no longer hold back and let out a few coughs. “Lucian! Christina is honestly too vicious. I wish she could experience how it feels like to be severely ill! She has no conscience at all!” Roxanne spat through her gritted teeth.
