Leaving The Country After Divorce

Chapter 611

Lysa came back after returning the flowers. She hesitated about saying something to Roxanne, who was studying some information on her laptop on the couch.

Roxanne turned around when she heard some noises near the doorway. Seeing Lysa, she asked, “Have you returned the flowers?”

The housekeeper nodded slightly and replied, “I‘ve asked someone from the florist‘s to send it back.”

Satisfied, Roxanne wordlessly returned her attention to her work.

Though Colby had been in charge of all matters pertaining to the research institute, he still needed Roxanne to discuss a potential collaboration with the Damaris family.

Roxanne treated the matter seriously as well. In fact, during her recovery at home, she had spent most of her attention on the research institute project.

Thankfully, Jack knew about her injury and did not hasten her progress. Instead, he allowed her to work at a comfortable pace.

His consideration filled Roxanne with some measure of guilt. She was determined to develop an in–depth understanding of the project so she could pick things up more quickly once she returned to work.
