Capítulo 1012 ¿Qué estás planeando exactamente
De un solo vistazo, Jack vio a través de sus padres. La exasperación lo inundó inexorablemente. “Ya
que ha investigado a la Sra. Jarvis, estoy seguro de que ya sabe que es una doctora
extraordinariamente sobresaliente”.
Con respecto a esa declaración, Titus y Priscilla no tuvieron refutación. Durante la investigación, ya se
habían enterado de que Roxanne estudió con Harvey e incluso fue su mejor alumna.
Eso solo fue suficiente para que reconocieran sus logros médicos. Sin embargo, eso no significaba que
pudieran aceptar el hecho de que ella era una divorciada con hijos.
Jack se dio cuenta de que sus padres aún estaban influenciados por la opinión pública, por lo que no
tuvo más remedio que seguir explicándoles las cosas sin poder hacer nada.
“Supongo que ambos están al tanto del proyecto que la familia Damaris estableció recientemente”.
In response, Titus and Priscilla nodded noncommittally.
Despite being away from the Damaris residence most of the time, they still kept themselves informed

At that, Jack nodded in satisfaction. “Since you know of this project, you must know that Ms. Jarvis is
also one of the members involved.”
Everything was fine before he mentioned that, but the instant he did so, Priscilla’s face darkened once
more. “I heard she also obtained the opportunity by…”
By selling her body.
Before she could vocalize the rest of that comment, Jack interrupted testily, “That’s just a baseless
rumor. Hadn’t Jessica apologized?”
When Priscilla heard that, her expression turned even grimmer.
Jessica had been her ideal candidate for a daughter-in-law throughout the years, but she had never
imagined that the woman would do such a thing.
In consideration that it was her misjudgment, she didn’t say anything further.
Subsequently, Jack continued, “Although I’m taking the lead in this project, Grandpa was the one who
chose the collaboration partners. He selected Ms. Jarvis because she showed outstanding performance
in the medical consultation. He even personally discussed the collaboration with her.”
Surprise flashed across Titus and Priscilla’s eyes when they learned that she passed Hector’s selection.
In other words, he’s also aware of Jack’s interaction with her? If so, why didn’t he put a stop to it?
When Jack saw that his parents were still misconstruing things, a headache assailed him.
His parents had been immersed in improving their medical skills all these years. Consequently, they were
seemingly dense when it came to other matters.
More accurately speaking, they couldn’t be bothered to give much thought to anything else.
That also made it extraordinarily taxing for him to clarify things to them.
“While the Damaris family is a century-old prestigious family in the medical field, its strength is still
lacking when it comes to certain aspects even now. As the heir of the Damaris family, dating is definitely
not my priority at present, so you can both rest easy,” Jack assured patiently.
Speaking of the current situation of the Damaris family, Titus and Priscilla were finally willing to put their

Judging from his usual temperament, he indeed couldn’t have possibly been so hasty to date that
woman. But… if it’s not love, why must he maintain such close ties with her? Larry is also a good choice
for a collaboration partner!
Priscilla siempre había sido una persona sencilla, por lo que exigió en ese momento: “En ese caso,
¿qué estás planeando exactamente?”
Una sonrisa significativa floreció en el rostro de Jack. “Lo sabrás naturalmente cuando llegue el
momento”.
Esa respuesta suya desconcertó tanto a Titus como a Priscilla.
Por desgracia, Jack no les dio ninguna oportunidad de preguntar más al respecto.
“Está bien, voy arriba para informarle al abuelo los resultados de la consulta médica de hoy. Vayan y
descansen ya que ambos acaban de regresar.”
Después de decir eso, se levantó del sofá. Antes de subir las escaleras, no se olvidó de instar: “No
escuches todos esos chismes sobre el asunto entre la Sra. Jarvis y yo”.
No había nada que Titus y Priscilla pudieran hacer al respecto, por lo que no tuvieron más remedio que
asentir con la cabeza.
