Leaving The Country After Divorce novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 1465

Roxanne's heart was lodged in her throat as she made her way to the hospital. She floored the accelerator, on the verge of breaking the speed limit.

Archie and Benny might be independent since young, but it was the first time one of them had gotten hurt.

Roxanne felt a surge of anxiety wash over her.

Upon arrival, Roxanne parked her car hastily and strode into the hospital.

Pippa was considerate enough to text her the ward number after Benny was admitted to the hospital.

Thus, Roxanne found them without any difficulty.

“Mommy!”

Archie firmly grasped her hand, squeezing it with such force that it caused her pain.

Estella also clutched at the corner of her shirt.

Roxanne patted their heads comfortingly before turning to Pippa. “Ms. Ward, what happened?”

Pippa answered apologetically, “We're not sure yet. The doctor at the infirmary said it might be a bruised cartilage. Benny is taking an X-ray inside.”

Roxanne felt a stab of pain in her heart after she heard the news.

“Ms. Jarvis, we're really sorry. It was our fault that Benny got hurt as we didn't take good care of him,” Jeffrey apologized profusely. “We had hoped that the sports day would help to strengthen the bond between the children, and we never anticipated that this would happen. I promise the children will no longer be allowed to participate in any activities that could put them at risk.”

Roxanne gazed at the kids, seeking their confirmation.

After Aubree had previously poisoned the children, she was extremely vigilant when it came to the wellbeing of the kids. She made sure to take every precaution possible and to be very mindful of their safety.

Estella's eyes were red. The little girl was so overwhelmed that she couldn't utter a word.

Archie remained composed as he nodded and clarified, “It was a game of hopping on one foot. Benny's turn was behind us. I'm not sure why he suddenly stumbled and fell.”

Hearing his confirmation, Roxanne relaxed and turned to Jeffrey. “You don't have to blame yourself. It's normal for children to get bumps and bruises when they play around. As long as they're not seriously hurt, everything should be okay.”
