After saying that, she exerted force, hoping to break free from his embrace and get to her feet. To her surprise, Lucian actually dropped his arm around her.

Roxanne gaped at the man beside her in astonishment. Despite feeling a tad irate, she stated in feigned calmness, “Thank you for steadying me, Mr. Farwell. You may now let go of me.”

Having said that, she reached out to find a fulcrum to regain her feet.
