Chapter 1624 Nothing Out Of The Ordinary
The hospital director was keeping Lucian company outside the emergency room, and he comforted Lucian by saying, “Mr. Farwell, all the best doctors in the city are here. Mrs. Farwell is going to be fine!”
Lucian ignored those words and kept staring at the light on top of the emergency room door.
At that moment, images of Roxanne's face growing increasingly pale kept playing in his mind, and he felt utterly helpless. I had to watch the woman I love fall unconscious, and there was nothing I could do. I don't even know what happened to her! This is the second time something like that has happened to her! The last time around, she almost couldn't wake up. What's going to happen this time? If something bad were to happen to her...
With that in mind, Lucian narrowed his eyes ferociously. If something happens to her, I'm going after Jack! If Jack hadn't made life difficult for her, Roxanne wouldn't have overworked herself! None of this would've happened!
As he was boiling with rage, his phone suddenly rang.
Lucian quickly composed himself. When he was about to reject the call, he saw it was a call from Pippa. Oh! I meant to call Cayden and tell him to fetch the kids. However, Roxanne fainted, and I forgot about that.
Lucian answered the call and uttered in a hoarse voice, “I'm sorry, Ms. Ward. Please look after the kids for a while more. I'll get Cayden to fetch them.”
Naturally, Pippa readily agreed.
After hanging up the phone, Lucian called Cayden and instructed him to fetch the kids.
“Mr. Farwell, what if the kids ask about Mrs. Farwell?” After what happened the last time around, Cayden felt he needed to get Lucian's opinion. Even if I need to lie to the kids later, I can tell myself that Mr. Farwell ordered me to do so.
Lucian went silent for a moment and glanced at the red light. In a deep voice, he answered, “Tell them Roxanne is going on a business trip, and I need to send her.”
