Chapter 938 Has Something Happened
Benny and Estella were suffering from stomachaches so bad that they could not pay Archie any heed at all. Estella was crying loudly to herself, oblivious to anything else.
Benny wanted to soothe her, but when he opened his lips to speak, he could only moan in pain. Gritting his teeth, he tried to restrain his groans and suppress his tears.
I have to be brave for Mommy! I can’t fail her over a little pain! The situation made Archie anxious, and he wanted to go and get Roxanne.
He recalled that the herbs were not far from where they were. I should be able to return quickly! As he was about to leave, he caught sight of Estella rolling in pain on the ground.
She was in so much pain that she did not care in which direction she was straying. As she writhed wildly on the ground, she slowly got further and further away from the tent.
Archie paused in his steps and, with some difficulty, pushed Estella back to the tent. He knew that he could not go far with Benny and Estella in such a state.
After some contemplation, Archie brought his wrist up to his face and pressed a few buttons on his watch. At that moment, Roxanne was focused on foraging for herbs.
She had initially just planned to take the children camping and had not expected to stumble across such a pleasant surprise.
Thus, Roxanne was elated to find the patch of herbs.
As she was gathering the herbs, her phone rang.
Roxanne paused in her foraging and fished out her phone while wondering who could be calling her at that moment.
When she saw the caller’s name on the screen, her expression shifted uneasily. She immediately stood up and turned to look in the direction of the tent.
It was Archie calling her.
Did something bad happen to them?
With the phone pressed to her ear, Roxanne quickly picked up the basket of herbs and hurried back to the campsite.
“Archie, what’s wrong? What happened?”
Archie’s voice was full of anxiety. “Mommy, come back quickly—”
