Chapter 486
After lunch, Roxanne drove to the Queen residence.
It was all thanks to Alfred that she got to participate in the medical consultation, so she had to offer her gratitude to him personally.
The Queen family had also delivered some supplies last afternoon, so she also wanted to thank them on behalf of the kids at the orphanage. While she was at it, she needed to ask them what that was about
too.
On the way there, she gave Jonathan a call to inform him of her arrival.
When she arrived at the Queen residence, Jonathan was already waiting in the living room.
Seeing her, he got to his feet and gave her a welcoming smile. “Dr. Jarvis, are you here to visit my grandpa? He’s resting upstairs. Should I ask him to come down now?”
Roxanne chuckled and shook her head. “I don’t mind waiting. I need to talk to you, too.”
Jonathan arched a brow in confusion. “What is it about?”
After they sat on the couch, Roxanne parted her lips and said, “Last afternoon, Rex delivered a huge bunch of supplies to the orphanage. He told me you gave him the order, so I’d like to thank you on behalf of the children in the orphanage.”
Jonathan nodded and flashed a knowing smile. “Yes, you should say thank you. But you shouldn’t be thanking me.”
Roxanne was taken aback. “Was it Old Mr. Queen’s order?”
That was the only possibility she could come up with.
Jonathan shook his head.
For a moment there, Roxanne was lost.
“It was Lucian’s idea.” Jonathan explained slowly, “Lucian paid for the supplies. He also forked out his own money for the kids’ treatment in Queen Hospital. All I did was send my men to carry out the job. If you want to thank the contributor, you should thank Lucian.”
Roxanne’s frown deepened when she heard his explanation.
I can’t believe it was Lucian. Why did he do this? There is no need for Farwell Group to get
closer to the Damaris family with their influence. Besides, Lucian used the Queen family name to get it done.
Roxanne was puzzled.
Seeing her baffiement, Jonathan chuckled. “I don’t know why he did that, though. Perhaps you should ask him personally.”
Before she could reply, he got to his feet. “I believe my grandpa’s up. I’ll go get him now.”
By the time Roxanne regained her composure, he was already going up the stairs.
About a dozen thoughts crossed Roxanne’s mind, and she was utterly confused.
Naturally, she wasn’t going to contact Lucian to find out why he did that.
However, she couldn’t figure out the reason for his actions.
She was deep in thought when Jonathan appeared at the top of the stairs and helped Alfred down.
Hearing their footsteps, Roxanne set her thoughts aside and rose to her feet to greet Alfred.
“How was the medical consultation yesterday?” asked Alfred.
Roxanne answered him cheerfully, “Thank you for giving me the chance to participate in the medical consultation, Old Mr. Queen. It was really meaningful, and I learned many things that aren’t usually made available to me.”
Feeling pleased, Alfred bobbed his head. “I knew this wouldn’t be a fruitless experience for you as you’re smart. What about the Damaris family? Did they comment on your skills?” Jonathan chimed in, “My grandpa put in a good word for you with Old Mr. Damaris.”
Roxanne flashed a grateful smile. “Mr. Damaris treated the doctors similarly, so I can’t be sure what he thinks of me. However, what the Damaris family thinks of me isn’t important to me anymore. I’m glad that got the chance to participate in the medical consultation.”
