Mission To Remarry Chapter 1976-Roxanne turned to look at Lucian.
“It's Starlight Group in Hawen, Lucien!” she softly claimed.
Immediately, Lucian’s face sank, and his brows scrunched up tightly.
At the sight of the couple's reactions, Madilyn was perplexed. “What is it? Is there anything special about Starlight Group? According to what I remember, that's the largest international trading company in Hawen, right?”
Lucian nodded. “You're right. But there's a big possibility they won't give us the antidote.”
“Why?” Madilyn was still filled with puzzlement.
Gloominess rose in Roxanne's heart. “That's because the owner of Starlight Group is Mr. Goldstein. He's the man whom Christina is with currently. You know who Christina Patel is, right?”
Madilyn's jaw dropped upon learning the truth.
Christina? Isn't she the mastermind behind Elektra's incident?Also known as Aubree Pearson, who was ready to fight Roxanne to death and was once Lycian's fiancee!
"So, everything that has happened is a part of Christina's scheme again.” A vicious glint flashed across Lucian's gaze.
He had been wary of Christina, but little did he imagine that she would play such a ruse.
The current situation was just like a slap in his face!
D*mn it! That woman keeps showing up everywhere! And it seems like she's confident Roxanne would come over to help. She must've wanted Roxanne to got infected as well. But she probably doesn't know Roxanne is pregnant. Her ruthlessness has reached the point where she's even putting others' lives at stake!
Noticing how Roxanne and Madilyn were overwhelmed by panic, Lucian glanced at the screen and placidly uttered, “I'll resolve the matter over acquiring the drug for the bacteria. We won't need to get it from Starlight Group. Now, all you two have to do is to ensure those infected are in good condition. I'll need about an hour to settle it!”
Madilyn was dumbfounded.
Roxanne, too, was in disbelief. Even if Lucian gets the medication from Moranta's pharmaceutical company directly and uses the fastest flight to send them back, it's still not something he con resolve in an hour.
Nonetheless, having seen the confident look on Lucian's face, Roxanne suddenly had a thought in mind, and immediately after, a smile bloomed on her face as she nodded.
Madilyn's mind was in a mess, all thanks to the couple. How can they still be so relaxed and smiling away at this juncture?
“I'll make a call now. It'll be done in no time!” With that, Lucian left the office hurriedly.
“Roxanne, what are you couple planning to do? Hurry up and tell me, or else I won't be at ease. There are already over twenty doctors and nurses who are infected. Including the two of us, we'll need a lot of medications!” Madilyn's heart was filled with uneasiness.
Roxanne chuckled. "Don't forget that I have a research institute! As long as we get the production process of the medication, I can ensure that my research institute will be able to develop a drug of similar effect within two hours. So, like what Lucian mentioned, we still have ample time!”
Clarity washed over Madilyn. Oh yes. Roxanne formulated the antidote herself when Jack poisoned her the other time.
It was only with such assurance that Madilyn felt relieved.
Soon after, the Centers for Disease Control's personnel arrived at the hospital and looked for Madilyn to learn more about the situation. As such, she rushed to the conference room to give them a brief report.
By the time Lucian returned, he was visibly calm as if he had settled the matter.
“I spent three hundred million to get the information on the medication's composition. They'll send it to me in about fifteen minutes. By then, you shall inform Old Mr. Lomax's side to begin production. They won't need too much time for that. Anyway, I think I can say it now. I most likely got infected as well. I have the urge to cough too.”
Finishing his words, Lucian could no longer hold back and let out a few coughs.
“Lucian! Christina is honestly too vicious. I wish she could experience how it feels like to be severely ill! She has no conscience at all!” Roxanne spat through her gritted teeth.
Mission To Remarry Chapter 1977- Using Me
Despite Roxanne and Lucian's guarantee, Madilyn still felt extremely pressured.
The atmosphere in the hospital was one of panic and confusion. People started gossiping and exaggerating the situation. Meanwhile, the hospital's landline was constantly ringing as the worried relatives of the patients called to check on their loved ones.
Many expressed their dissatisfaction with the hospital's lack of professionalism, and some even threatened to take legal action against the hospital's executive staff.
Some people went so far as to ask the hospital to move their relatives to another medical center. Upon being denied, they threatened to file a complaint against the hospital.
Not long after, some of the family members hastened to the entrance of the hospital. A few vehicles were dangerously close to smashing into the building, and the family members were venting their rage by hurling insults at the hospital.
Reporters were savvy and quick-witted enough to make their way to the hospital in order to document the chaotic scene that had unfolded.
“Leaders from the Centers for Disease Control, please allow us entry into the hospital to interview the patients! How grave is the condition that has necessitated the closure of the medical facility?”
“The families of the patients are extremely distressed right now. We need to learn the truth! Please allow us to conduct an interview with the hospital director, Dr. Marilyn Xander, and ensure that the public is appropriately informed.”
“The hospital's decision to not permit the transfer of their patients to another hospital has generated a great deal of controversy on the Internet. We kindly request that you permit us to enter the premises!”
From her office window in a building opposite the hospital, Christina watched the scene play out below with a satisfied smirk curling up the corners of her mouth.
“Roxanne and Madilyn have already been contaminated with the bacteria, and the only hope for their salvation lies with Mr.
Goldstein, who holds the key to the vaccine. It all depends on what terms and conditions Lucian is willing to propose in order to secure the life-saving vaccine.”
She let her joy take control and revealed her innermost thoughts.
Coralie was taken aback upon hearing Christina's words. She couldn't believe what she was hearing, and it took a few moments for her to regain her composure. "Are you talking about Mr.
Alphonso Goldstein from Starlight Group? Is that why you're here? You're not just trying to take revenge on Roxanne and Madilyn, you want to make a profit too. Was I just a pawn in your plan? I thought you were here to help me out!”
Christina kept her cool composure in the face of the accusatory words directed at her. She quirked her lips upwards into a sly grin and replied, “Ms. Crawford, it doesn't matter why I'm here, does it?
All that matters is that you get the outcome you desire. If there was a public outcry it would be disastrous for Madilyn as she could end up being removed from her role as hospital director, or even face criminal charges.
“But that doesn't change the fact that you had used me!” Coralie insisted, feeling incredibly uncomfortable at the revelation.
The hospital entrance was a scene of utter chaos and confusion.
Without warning, a Rolls-Royce rolled to a stop and blocked the path of the crowd.
Everyone looked over to the vehicle.
Slowly, a figure emerged from the car.
It was Jonathan, dressed in a finely tailored suit that had been custom-made for him, and it gave him an impressive stature. His expression was grim as he walked, his steps light yet determined.
Somehow, he gave off an aura that resembled Lucian's.
He directed a sharp gaze at the crowd before raising his arm, gesturing for everyone to quiet down.
Much to the surprise of everyone present, the boisterous and raucous noise of the crowd died away at Jonathan's request. The reporters were quick to start snapping away at him.
"Hello, everyone. My name is Jonathan Queen. Please quiet down and listen to what I have to say.”
His voice, though not particularly loud, still managed to carry an air of authority. His determined poise was enough to put the family members at ease, and they waited to see what he would say.
After all, his clothing and vehicle implied that he was someone of significance and importance.
As the situation was under control, Jonathan grew confident and continued, “I am here today as Dr. Madilyn Xander's representative.
I would like to explain two matters concerning the recent emergency situation at the hospital. Firstly, I am pleased to inform you that the situation is under control, and we have devised a plan to have it resolved in the next three hours. Secondly, I am here to answer any questions you may have, and I ask for your understanding in controlling your emotions during this time.”
Mission To Remarry Chapter 1978-At the hospital's entrance, some nurses were helping the Centers for Disease Control maintain order.
Upon witnessing Jonathan's arrival to take charge of the situation, they recorded the entire thing and sent it to the hospital's group chat.
Madilyn could barely hide her surprise after watching the video.
Her heart began to beat rapidly and wildly as if it was going to burst out of her chest when she heard Jonathan saying that he was her representative.
Lucian must've told Jonathan about the hospital's situation.
However, it was impossible that Lucian taught him to say that! Did he say that spontaneously?
The pressure that had been weighing on Madilyn's heart faded into thin air, leaving her feeling relieved and deeply moved by his gesture.
Lucian soon received a call from Jonathan, informing him that the situation had been brought under control. When Jonathan arrived, the reporters immediately recognized him and instead of publishing unreliable stories, they focused on the hospital's emergency handling measures.
Jonathan stayed at the hospital entrance, patiently fielding any questions that the family members had.
At the same time, Coralie was keeping an eye on the situation with a set of binoculars. She could make out every detail of Jonathan's expression.
/ can't believe Jonathan showed up to defend Madilyn!
Envy smoldered within her, its flames licking at her heart. She ground her teeth together as her expression contorted into a malicious grimace.
“Three hours? My men told me that Jonathan claimed they could solve the problem within three hours. That's impossible! Even if they discovered the existence of the pathogenic bacteria, bought the vaccine from Moranta, and had it shipped via plane, it would take more than three hours for the vaccine to arrive!” Christina's expression was as dark as thunder.
However, she soon figured Jonathan lied on purpose to placate the family members.
There is no way they can resolve our scheme in less than three hours. Not even Lucian can do that!
She comforted herself before informing Coralie that she had to go back to Alphonse's side.
Coralie's focus was on Jonathan, so she nodded and replied, "You just go.”
Christina gave Coralie a thoughtful look when discovered that the latter was making the same foolish mistake she had once made- devoting her entire life and energy to a man.
Once I depart, I will have no further involvement in the plan. As long as I return to Mr. Goldstein's side, even if I remain in Horington, no one con harm me, not even Lucian! Mr. Goldstein is not only the proprietor of Starlight Group but also has the backing ofHawen.
Indeed, Coralie's mood was affected by Jonathan.
The scene that she dreaded the most was witnessing Jonathan come to Madilyn's aid to help her solve the crisis.
Something told her that Jonathan had changed.
Previously, Jonathan had an adorable innocence about him as he was pretty straightforward. Now, his deep eyes were alight with wisdom beyond his years, tinged with a sense of reserved maturity that added to his overall allure.
What did Jonathan encounter in a short amount of time that made him change completely?
Coralie had no idea what had transpired, yet her affection for Jonathan only seemed to deepen, along with her envy of Madilyn.
A few minutes later, Christina exited the elevator on the first floor to find that the hospital across the road was back to normal.
At the hospital's entrance, the nurses gently guided a handful of patients outside to explain the current situation to their loved ones.
“We're doing well here. Dr. Xander often visits us. It's nothing serious. Did you fall for someone's lie?” A patient was reassuring his family.
“Really? We're so relieved to hear that. We had heard about the bacterial infection going on and it had us all worried. Everyone was concerned, so we decided to transfer you to another hospital as a precaution. Thankfully it was a false alarm. We'll go visit you later when the hospital is open for visitors!” His family was delighted to learn that he was doing fine.
Following that, a few patients came out to meet their families.
Gradually, the crowd dispersed.
Mission To Remarry Chapter 1979-A cruel smile spread across Christina's face, her eyes hinting at a sinister intention.
The crisis had been tamped down for now, but it was impossible to prevent the pathogenic bacteria from breaking out in just a few hours.
In six to eight hours, the pathogenic bacteria would spread rapidly, leading to numerous patients within the hospital becoming severely ill. This outbreak would not be contained, as the bacteria would continue to spread beyond the hospital walls.
So what if Roxanne is a capable doctor? Relying on traditional medicine alone is inefficient and even outdated. Acupuncture is just a psychological effect.
Having made up her mind, Christina grinned and sauntered out of the building to head to the parking lot.
No sooner had she stepped out of the door than a few figures began to creep closer to her at an alarming speed.
“Confirmed. It's her. Get her!”
The leader of the bodyguards compared her to the photo on his phone and confirmed that this was their target.
Mr. Farwell gave orders that we have to capture her swiftly if we see her even if it means engaging in a physical altercation.
He came prepared this time, bringing along a large group of subordinates with him in order to ensure that their target wouldn't be able to escape as had happened in the past.
The leader soon realized that Christina was unaccompanied, so he quickly put on his guard.
In an instant, Christina found herself surrounded by five or six intimidating figures. She jolted with fear as her eyes widened in shock.
“You're Christina Patel!” the bodyguard who first approached her yelled out loud.
Christina froze, but she quickly shook her head to deny it.
Alas, her expression had betrayed her. The bodyguards stood resolutely in her way, their faces stern and unwavering. She felt a chill run down her spine as she met their gaze, her heart pounding in fear.
Feeling completely overwhelmed, she had no opportunity to comprehend the situation and, without thinking, she quickly grabbed her phone.
/ must report this to Mr. Goldstein immediately! He's the only one capable of saving me.
Christina thought she was quick enough, but the bodyguards were even quicker. As they were veterans, their reflexes were incredibly sharp. Before she had the chance to use her phone, they snatched it from her hands.
“Who are you? What is going on? Someone, help me!”
Christina could only scream for help, hoping to attract the attention of the bystanders.
Nevertheless, the bodyguards didn't take the time to even look at the spectators. Instead, they swiftly moved to strike her neck hard.
In an instant, Christina blacked out, and her body fell to the ground limply.
Before she could land on the ground, two burly bodyguards swooped in and lifted her up onto their shoulders, quickly carrying her to the safety of their waiting vehicle.
The leader, aware that a number of people had their eyes fixed upon them, was intent on avoiding any potential problem for their employer. Suddenly, an idea occurred to him, and he roared out with urgency, “Quickly, get her to the hospital! She has fainted!”
“This is my younger sister who suffers from a mental disorder. After a long and desperate search, we have finally found her, so we are now taking her to the hospital located just across the street.”
With that, the bodyguards brought Christina to the hospital across the street hastily.
Back in the hospital director's office, Lucian's phone began to ring. It was a call from the leader of the bodyguards.
He answered the call and placed his phone to his ear.
“Mr. Farwell, we've just caught Christina Patel!” the leader reported solemnly.
“Good. Bring her to the director's office!” Lucian ordered as his expression turned icy.
I was right. Christina is behind this.
Lucian knew Christina well enough to guess her next move.
She was the type of person who relished standing atop a lofty place to bask in her own creation.
Consequently, Lucian commanded his bodyguards to divide into three separate groups in order to secure the entrances of the three high-rise buildings that stood across from the hospital.
It was a random thought, so he didn't expect to capture their target so quickly.
Mission To Remarry Chapter 1980-Not Interested In Talking
“We've captured Christina Patel!” Lucian announced casually.
Roxanne was fully engrossed in her conversation with Peregrine, discussing the particulars of replicating the vaccine, when suddenly she stopped mid-sentence, realizing that she hadn't heard what Lucian had said clearly.
Madilyn had heard his words, so she repeated, “Mr. Farwell said he has captured the culprit of this crisis, Christina Patel!”
“Old Mr. Lomax, if the problem is solved, please continue with the next step as soon as possible. We're racing against time here. More than thirty people had been infected by this bacterium in the hospital!”
After hanging up, Roxanne finally had time to digest Lucian's words.
“Darling, did you anticipate Christina's actions with your impressive display of foresight and crafted an intricately detailed plan to capture her?” Her awe of her husband was evidenced by the overly complimentary language she used in her expression of admiration.
Lucian's face was tight with tension at first, but he felt a wave of embarrassment wash through him when he heard Roxanne's compliments.
“Where is she? I'd like to give her a few slaps!” Madilyn felt her right arm trembling in anger.
“She'll be here soon. I've told my bodyguards to bring her here,” Lucian replied. He glanced at Roxanne, afraid that she would get emotional.
To his surprise, Roxanne seemed to have breathed a sigh of relief and had calmed down.
“She has framed me countless times, and I'm finally getting to see her today,” she said calmly.
Madilyn exclaimed furiously, “Roxanne, you must take action and ensure that this woman is punished for her immoral behavior. She should be sent to prison for the hurtful and malicious things she has done. It's appalling that such a cruel person even exists in this world!”
Right then, the leader knocked on the door.
“Mr. Farwell, we're here!”
“Come on in!” Lucian ordered.
The door was pushed open to reveal an unconscious Christina.
At first glance, one would know she had undergone plastic surgery.
It was apparent that there were not many options for plastic surgeries in Hawen as all patients appeared to look the same after undergoing plastic surgery.
However, Roxanne immediately recognized that this was Aubree due to her figure.
After the bodyguards threw Christina unceremoniously to the ground, they straightened their backs, waiting for Lucian's order.
“You may leave now!” Lucian waved his hands, and the bodyguards filed out swiftly.
Madilyn raked her gaze over Christina and muttered angrily, “Why is she unconscious? Is she putting up an act? Let me get some water to splash on her!”
Without hesitation, she hurried out of her office to get some water.
Roxanne felt a swell of conflicting emotions as she looked at Christina.
"Lucian, she has come into contact with us in this office. Thus, I believe she'll get infected with the pathogenic bacteria soon,” she suddenly declared.
Lucian gave a curt nod. “That was what I had in mind. Besides, she won't be receiving any treatment unless Mr. Goldstein has the vaccine with him at all times!”
His voice was calm, devoid of any emotion.
Christina had devised multiple devious plots against Roxanne in an attempt to end her life, which made him unwilling to see her as Aubree anymore.
Even if Lucian had not taken any steps to intervene, Christina would still be spending the remainder of her life behind bars.
“To be honest, I don't think there's a need to talk with her anymore.
It's pointless,” Roxanne said truthfully, as she was no longer interested in talking to Christina anymore.
