Mission To Remarry

Jonathan didn't know what to say in response to Lucian's remark. All he could do was comfort the latter awkwardly.

“This isn't on you. The fault lies with Jack. No matter what you did or didn't do, he would've still looked for an opportunity to make a move against Roxanne.”

After he had said that, something occurred to him, and he continued, “He must have an ulterior motive in doing this. I wonder what it is.”

Lucian hadn't planned on keeping it from Jonathan's knowledge. Hence, he told the latter briefly about the negotiation between him and Jack when they met just now.

“Has he lost his mind?”

After Jonathan heard about Jack's terms, incredulity showed on his face.

Never mind that he wants ten of Farwell Group's most profitable subsidiaries since Lucian can swiftly make up for them with his capabilities, but what right do they have to make decisions on Roxanne's behalf about her research institute's collaboration when she's still in a coma? Worse still, he even wants Lucian to marry another woman! What exactly is his motive here?

Meanwhile, repulsion brimmed in Lucian's eyes. “I have no problems with all the other terms other than the final one. I'd never agree to it.”
