His And Her Marriage (Lucian and Roxanne) novel Chapter 944

Chapter 944 Answering The Call Outside

Roxanne shut the door and gave Madilyn a call. It took a while before Madilyn answered. “Roxanne? Didn’t you go camping? Is there something you need?”

It seemed pretty noisy on the other end of the line, so Roxanne asked, “What are you doing?”

Madilyn sounded pained. “Don’t mention it. I was forced to work overtime again.”

As soon as she said that, the noise increased. Before Roxanne could say anything, Marilyn hurriedly added, “I need to get back to work. I’ll call you later.”

She then hung up right away. Roxanne’s gaze turned dark as her phone screen dimmed. She didn’t call Marilyn back. After a brief hesitation, she tried calling Larry.

Larry picked up pretty quickly, but he was in another state and couldn’t be of help in time. Roxanne didn’t tell him anything despite his concern. She dismissed him with a few cursory words and hung up.

There was no time to explain things. Besides, she didn’t want to trouble them further. As her friends couldn’t be of help, Roxanne couldn’t stop panic from rising in her heart.

At the same time, Archie observed her side profile and recalled the two calls she made earlier. He could somehow guess their current situation.

Mommy must have tried to ask for help but failed. With that thought in mind, Archie’s expression grew grim. “Daddy…” Estella was groggy from the pain, so she instinctively sought comfort.

Hearing his sister’s voice, Archie had a thought in mind. He sneaked a look at his mother outside the car. Roxanne was scowling unhappily.

A brief moment later, Archie looked away and called Lucian using his smartwatch. In Farwell Group, Lucian was seated in the conference room, his face devoid of expression. A group of managers was sitting in front of him.

Herbscape Group’s acquisition was a success, so it was time to plan their collaboration with Queen Group. They had been holding meetings for the past two days to discuss this matter.

When the meeting was about to come to an end, Lucian’s phone suddenly vibrated. The conference room descended into silence as everyone turned their attention to the vibrating phone.
