Chapter 688
Meanwhile, Roxanne did not have the slightest clue about what Aubree and her mother were planning.
The whole day had been spent playing with the children and dealing with Lucian. Hence, Roxanne fell asleep the moment she lay down.
However, she was awakened by the phone ringing the next day.
In a daze, Roxanne opened her eyes and picked up the phone without looking at who the caller was.
“Ms. Jarvis, are you awake? I’ve got something that needs your attention.”
She barely had time to take a breather when Jack’s voice broke the silence.
Upon realizing that it was Jack, Roxanne suddenly became alert. Curiously, she asked, “Has something happened?”
Roxanne rarely had personal dealings with Jack, so she knew that he was likely calling her for a business or medical issue.
Regardless, both matters were not to be taken lightly.
On that note, Jack broke the silence first. “Do you remember Jamie? That kid from the medical consultation the last time?”
Roxanne’s expression immediately turned grave. “I do. What happened?”
During the consultation, Daniel had spooked the child, resulting in heart palpitations that caused him to lose consciousness. It was only through Roxanne’s intervention that Jamie regained consciousness.
Thus, Roxanne had quite a deep impression of the child.
“The orphanage contacted me just now. They aren’t sure what happened, but Jamie contracted a high fever and has been hospitalized. I figured that since you handled his consultation the last time, you’d be more familiar with the situation. If you have time, can you go and take a look?” asked Jack politely.
