Jonathan noticed the way they looked into each other’s eyes and had the sense to say nothing.
Only after they retracted their gazes did he smile and say to Roxanne, “Those herb suppliers that I have contacted only have branch offices in Horington, but they should be able to provide a consistent flow of supply to your research institute. Is that all right with you, Dr. Jarvis?”
Pulling herself out of her reverie, Roxanne put on an appropriate smile. “Since they are introduced by you, I am confident of their capabilities. Furthermore, a small research institute like ours won’t be requiring lots of herbs. The branch offices should be able to satisfy our demands.”
Raising his brows, Jonathan uttered, “It may be small now, but with you around, who knows what may happen in the future?”
