Chapter 1701

I Can Save Myself

“Madilyn. She's worried about me and kept asking how I'm doing,” Roxanne replied with a smile.

Lucian nodded and asked casually as he sat down beside the bed, “I noticed that one of the doctors
was out when I arrived. Did he tell you where he was going?”

The smile on Roxanne's face was frozen in place when she heard that.

She wasn't expecting Lucian to even notice such details, let alone ask about it.

After taking a few seconds to regain her composure, Roxanne replied as calmly as possible, “I'm not
sure. I'll be fine as long as there are people around. It doesn't matter if one or two of them step away
for a bit.

She then let out a helpless sigh and added, “I've already regained consciousness, so you don't need to
have so many of them standing by. You should let them head back and get some rest.”

Lucian seemed to be in deep thought as he retrieved an apple from the grocery bag and slowly peeled
it.

Knowing Roxanne, she wouldn't ask for desserts immediately after recovering, let alone have me buy
them from a store so far away. I know she probably needed some time alone, but I can't seem to figure
out why... Hmm... Her reaction and that of the experts outside the ward all seem rather suspicious. She
must've told them something while I was out earlier. Given the situation at hand, her poisoning is the
only possible thing they could've been talking about.

The look in Lucian's eyes turned gloomy at the thought of that.



He stopped peeling the apple and stared solemnly at Roxanne as he asked, “Is it true that the poison
has been completely removed from your body?”

Roxanne let out a helpless chuckle after a brief pause. “You noticed?”

She knew she wouldn't be able to hide it from Lucian for long, but she didn't think he would find out so
soon.

“I was planning to tell you after I had found a way to neutralize the poison. I'm sorry I lied to you after
promising to not keep secrets from you just earlier,” she continued with an apologetic look on her face.

Lucian frowned as the flames of anger began to burn within his eyes. “Did Jack pull some kind of trick
on us? Did he give you a fake antidote or something?”

Roxanne shook her head. “The antidote is real. It's just that...”

Lucian's tone grew increasingly colder as he pressed on, “It's just what?”

Since Lucian had already found out about her lies, Roxanne decided to not hide anything from him.

“The dosage he gave was incomplete. I would need at least four to five times more of what he gave me
in order to completely rid my body of that poison. I had a discussion with the experts earlier. We now
have a lead and might be on to something, so you don't have to worry too much about it.”

Lucian's eyes were clearly filled with anxiousness when he looked at her, but he soon regained his
composure and said calmly, “Oh, I'm not worried. I could just go deal with him again if necessary.”

If submitting to Jack will save her life, then I shall gladly do it!

Roxanne felt touched when she heard that.



She reached out to caress his cheek as she said reassuringly, “That won't be necessary. I'm confident
in my ability to save myself. I mean, I did develop a drug that even the Damaris family couldn't!”

Jack had shown her some of the Damaris family's books on ancient medicine while they were still on
good terms. Those books contained lots of information on all sorts of rare and special medicinal herbs.

Roxanne had a feeling that the key to the antidote could be found within those books.

Fortunately for her, she had put in the effort to memorize everything in those books.

Once the blood test results were out, I should be able to use that information to figure out the poison's
contents and synthesize an antidote myself!
