His And Her Marriage (Lucian and Roxanne) novel Chapter 1724

Chapter 1724 An Error In Judgment

With the children in tow, Jonathan set off from the manor.

The three little ones were very obedient along the way and remained silent.

Jonathan hesitated for a while before finally deciding to call Lucian, who answered the phone after just a few rings. “What is it, Jonathan?”

“Lucian, I... I went to pick up Archie, but Benny and Essie insisted on tagging along too, so I brought them all with me...” he said nervously. After all, he had made the call to bring Benny and Estella along without knowing whether it would end up causing more trouble.

He thought Lucian would have a few stern words for him, but to his surprise, the latter was quiet for a few seconds before calmly giving his consent. “Okay, got it. Put the call on speaker so I can talk to them.”

Jonathan breathed a sigh of relief, then immediately turned on the speakerphone and said to the children, “Your daddy wants to chat with you.”

The trio's eyes lit up when they heard that. They leaned forward eagerly as though they could see Lucian through the screen and said, “Daddy! How's Mommy?”

Their question sent a sharp pang shooting through Jonathan's heart. He clenched his jaw and stared straight ahead, studiously trying not to catch a glimpse of the kids' innocent faces.

On the other end of the line, Lucian also fell silent for several seconds before answering evasively, “Her condition has gotten a little bit more serious, but she has written out the prescription. We just need Archie's help to gather the medicinal herbs. You don't have to be too worried.”

Lucian's response made Benny and Estella feel slightly more at ease. We're confident in Mommy's medical skills. Since she has prepared the prescription, everything will be okay!

“Will we be able to see Mommy when we're there?” they asked expectantly.

Lucian's eyes darkened. “She's waiting at the hospital. You need to come straight to the research institute.”
