Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 1981

Chapter 1981 If You Apologize To Me Sincerely

Madilyn soon returned to her office with a pail full of water. Without hesitation, she poured the contents of the pail onto Christina's body, making sure to drench the latter completely.

“If killing isn't against the law, I would've poured a bucket of boiling molten iron on her,” Madilyn added. She glared at Christina viciously, waiting for the latter to regain consciousness.

Lucian and Roxanne waited with anticipation for her to stir, curious to find out how she would react to the situation.

A few seconds later, Christina's eyes fluttered open.

Confusion rippled across her expression and she spun around, her eyes widening when she noticed Lucian and Roxanne standing there. For a moment, her breath hitched in her throat.

A look of sheer panic crossed her face as she realized she was completely drenched. At once, she curled into a ball and retreated hastily. Conflicting emotions filled her gaze.

“It appears that you have outsmarted me, Mr. Farwell. Well, it's not surprising considering your intelligence was the trait that initially drew me to you.”

Christina's gaze was filled with intense loathing as she watched Roxanne holding tightly onto Lucian.

Nevertheless, Roxanne wasn't afraid of her gaze at all.

She discovered that Christina dared not meet Lucian's gaze.

It was obvious Christina was trying to provoke them, but Roxanne wasn't in the mood to talk to her.

It was simply not worth the time or energy to talk to someone like her.

Lucian ignored her and reached out to take Roxanne's hand affectionately.

Christina's pretentiousness crumbled upon that sight.

“Roxanne, Madilyn, you both must've been infected, right? It's fine. Even if you end my life right now, I will go with a smile on my face, knowing that the bacteria will soon take over your bodies and put an end to your lives.”

Seeing how smug Christina look, Roxanne gazed at her calmly as though she had gone crazy.

She started coughing as her throat felt itchy.

Lucian couldn't be bothered to look at Christina. He asked in a concerned tone, “Do you feel unwell?”

He grabbed Roxanne's cup and handed it to her.

“I knew you've been infected. That means you've also been infected, Madilyn! As you both were in a confined space, there was no way for you to avoid it.” Christina grew elated.

She finally summoned the courage to finally look at Lucian. As she met his gaze, her expression grew placid and she uttered, “It's true that you are a proficient individual, Lucian; however, this particular situation is far from easy. I'm assuming you've been infected as well, so if you would be willing to apologize for your past transgressions, I might be able to assist you in obtaining the vaccine.”
