Chapter 28 Roxanne couldn’t help but feel irritated. Ultimately, she was being

sabotaged and the projects in the research institute could not proceedbecause of this. She never expected that Aubree’s vengeance toward her

persisted even after 6 years. Even worse. Aubree resorted to such atrocious

tactics to get back at her! However, it was not the time for her to be bothered

by emotions. Roxanne clenched her fists in an attempt to calm herself down.

She then looked toward Colby and said, “It’s okay. If Horington is not the

solution to our problem, then we can try other cities. Surely, someone must be

willing to collaborate with us.” Be that as it may, it also meant that the costs

and time needed to achieve it would be higher. While Roxanne did not

mention it, she was very much aware of the consequences. She too hoped to

find a suitable partner in Horington. However, the prospect of doing so

seemed quite bleak. “No, there’s no need to head to other cities,” Colby

uttered.

He appeared to have thought of something, and his tone relaxed.

Roxanne arched a brow. “Are you saying that there’s someone in Horington

that is willing to collaborate with us? The small suppliers are definitely out of

the picture, and we need someone with larger operations…” Colby nodded. “I

know. However, this might require you to personally attend to it.” Roxanne

was perplexed. Colby then said, “I heard it from you actually. But first things

first, have you heard of the Queen family?” Colby continued, “The Queen

family supplies medicine and built an empire out of it. The Queen family is a

prominent family in Horington, and Old Mr. Queen has a good reputation in

the community. However, his health has been deteriorating lately. Because of

this, the Queen family

has been looking for doctors to cure him, but to no avail. They invited me to

try out, but I couldn’t do much. However, you might stand a chance in this.” “Is

that so?” Roxanne replied. She understood what he meant but was

nevertheless hesitant. “The Queen family are in the big leagues. When it

comes to the pricing, it will not necessarily be lower than what we are being

offered right now.” Colby replied, “Before this, the Oueen family offered

expensive medicines as a reward for whoever can cure Old Mr. Queen of his

condition. In the future, they can also come up with an arrangement to supply

medicine at half the price!” . Roxanne’s eve’s glistened with hope and she felt

the boulder being lifted off her shoulders. “Why didn’t you say this earlier?

That’s a great thing!” Colby beamed. “I thought about it, but admittedly I’m not

good enough. Besides, you were not bere back then. Hence, I gave up and

never thought about it until now. Perhaps you can give it a try. What do you

think?” “Of course! Not a problem at all!” Roxanne confidently stood up to urge

him. “Please help me contact the Queen family and help me make an

appointment with them.” Looking at Roxanne’s passion for matters that

concerned the research institute, Colby’s heart surged with a sense of relief.He smiled and said, “I’ll do that now. Wait for me here.” Then, he exited the

office and pulled out his phone. Meanwhile, Roxanne sat quietly in the office

and waited. Irrespective of how complex the treatment would be, Roxanne

was determined to cure old Mr. Queen. Soon after, Colby returned. “How did it

go?” Roxanne eagerly asked. Colby nodded. “We still have a chance. the

Queen family has yet to find a doctor that can cure Old Mr. Queen’s condition.

Knowing that I have someone to recommend, they agreed to let you visit

without any hesitation.” “When are we heading there?” Roxanne continued

asking. “Tonight,” replied Colby. Roxanne agreed immediately. The timing

was perfect, as she too wanted to go there as soon as possible. “I need your

help. Please let me know all the symptoms that Old Mr. Queen has. I will need

to make the necessary preparations.” Roxanne became serious the moment

she spoke about medicine. Colby obliged.novelgram
