NovelStartChapter 753 Acquisition By The Damaris Family Meanwhile, after Lucian left Roxanne’s house, he went straight to the office just in time for the scheduled meeting.
After the meeting was over, Lucian had just come out of the conference room when he saw Cayden approaching him from a distance. The latter seemed somewhat perturbed upon seeing Lucian. “Mr. Farwell.” Lucian’s brows furrowed slightly. “What's the matter?” Still wearing a troubled facial expression, Cayden stated, “There's something wrong with the project we have with Queen Group.” Lucian’s expression darkened as he strode back to his office, and Cayden silently followed behind him into the office before closing the door behind him.
“What's the problem?” Lucian inquired in a deep voice. Previously, their collaboration with Queen Group had been progressing smoothly.

They don't plan to accept the acquisition’s conditions we offered.” Lucian’s frown deepened the moment he heard the news.
The acquisition of that pharmaceutical company was a crucial part of the project. In order to make it a success, Farwell Group and Queen Group put a lot of effort into it. They even made multiple concessions on the purchase price. After several negotiations, both sides reached an agreement, and the only thing that was left to do was sign the contract.
However, the people from the pharmaceutical company went back on their word abruptly.
“Why? Did the other party state their reason?” Lucian probed, frowning.
The look of perturbation on Cayden’s face became more obvious. “It's because of... the Damaris family. The Damaris family’s newly established research institute has been in contact with the pharmaceutical company lately. | don’t know what kind of conditions they have been offered.” The Damaris family...
Upon hearing the mention of the Damaris family, Lucian couldn't help but think of Jack.
The previous scandal Roxanne had has not been entirely clarified. Only the part concerning her medical skills was clarified.
Nevertheless, none of the parties has ever given the public a reasonable explanation regarding her relationship with Jack. And now, the Damaris family is interrupting my project.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs the thought flashed across Lucian’s mind, his face turned grim, and the atmosphere around him became thick with tension.
“Mr. Farwell, should we continue to increase the purchase price?” Cayden asked tentatively.
Only then did Lucian snap out of it and start to ponder the question. He then shook his head and walked to the window. “No, let's wait and see what happens first. Find out what conditions the Damaris family has offered to that company.” If we keep blindly compromising, it will only cause that company to ask for more.
Cayden nodded in acknowledgment and suddenly thought of something. He said hesitantly, “I have a way to find out what the Damaris family’s conditions are, but...” Seeing the hesitant look on his face, Lucian asked in confusion, “What is it?” Cayden took a quick, cautious glance at Lucian before mustering the courage to speak his mind. “I remember that Ms. Jarvis is involved in the new project of the Damaris family’s company. Perhaps she might know something about the matter. We can ask her about it.” The look in Lucian’s eyes darkened when he heard Cayden’s suggestion.
Indeed, Roxanne has joined the project established by the Damaris family’s research institute. She even has a close relationship with Jack, but that doesn’t mean that | have to make use of her, not to mention this is a business matter.
Noticing Lucian’s countenance, Cayden immediately knew what the former was going to say. Before Lucian could speak, Cayden beat him to it. “Don’t worry. | will ask around through other means.” Lucian nodded. “Do that as soon as possible.” Cayden respectfully agreed and turned around to walk out of the office.
