His And Her Marriage (Lucian and Roxanne)

Chapter 2042 Mixed Gender Twins

Orchid had thought that parachuting into the management team this time would be smoother than before and that she would be able to integrate the research institute, pharmaceutical company, and hospital more thoroughly, leading to an explosive increase in profits.

However, the finance team informed her that the pharmaceutical company was losing money every day. The previous drug pricing was too low, so they couldn't cover the production costs, let alone research and development expenses.

As for the hospital, although it could generate some profit, those wealthy people suddenly stopped coming for in-depth medical examinations after the name change of the medical facility, causing a significant loss in revenue.

At the same time, some patients wanted to leave the hospital as soon as they heard that the director had been replaced.

While Orchid was busy dealing with these issues, Peregrine's plan was also set into motion, with the latest batch of technicians submitting their resignations one after the other.

Having lost the patents and the substantial profits provided by Flora Verba Group, Orchid finally realized that Roxanne had been well-prepared, leaving her with nothing but an empty shell.

Facing the shortage of cash flow, departure of technical personnel, and loss of patents, Orchid left Horington within two days.

She planned to visit GK Group's headquarters to liaise with the board of directors for more resource allocation. Otherwise, GK Group would never stand a chance to gain a foothold in the domestic market. Meanwhile, Roxanne's ploy was also being carried out in full swing.

James and Colby were absorbing the technical personnel from the research institute while Linda was busy preparing for the construction of the new hospital.

On the other hand, Jonathan was occupied with establishing a new pharmaceutical company and incorporating all the patents into it. The final step was then to list the company under Flora Verba Group. Before long, Roxanne's business empire would be restored to its former glory.

Of course, that couldn't have happened without the strong support from Lucian.

In addition to providing commercial support, Lucian was also a full-time pro at taking care of an expectant mother.

One day, Lucian happily brought Roxanne to the maternity hospital, planning to do a 4D ultrasound scan to check on the baby's progress.

After the ultrasound, the attending physician congratulated the couple, "Congratulations, Mr. Farwell and Ms. Jarvis. You're truly blessed because you'll be having mixed-gender twins!" "Mixed-gender twins..."

The couple looked at each other and burst into ecstasy.

Lucian was especially overjoyed, almost jumping up in excitement.

"This is so great! Archie, Benny, and Essie won't have to argue anymore. They'll have both younger brother and sister." Hardly able to contain his exhilaration, Lucian glanced at the embryos, which were smaller than his palm, on the imaging report again.

His eyes were filled with tender adoration.

"Now we'll have five kids. That's enough to make up a basketball team. Lucian, let me tell you, after giving birth to these two, I don't plan to have any more kids," Roxanne pouted and grumbled.

However, Lucian curled his lips into a knowing smile. "It's just a basketball team. Can't we have enough kids to make up a football team?"

The attending physician grinned as well. "Considering both of your looks and intelligence, having a few more children would actually be a good idea."

"Doctor, it's easy for you to say that " Roxanne complained.

The physician laughed heartily and reminded them of the followup matters.

Lucian recounted his caretaking process during that period and received lavish praises. His face beamed with a sense of accomplishment.

As they left the hospital and got into the car, Lucian immediately began fussing over Roxanne.

"Darling, you'll need to start controlling your sweets intake from now on. Pregnancy makes it very easy to develop gestational diabetes. Also, remember to take your folic acid on time. And don't forget to soak your feet daily to prevent severe swelling in your legs during late pregnancy stages.
