Chapter 945 What Medicine
His heart sank when the realization hit him. “What’s wrong?” Archie glanced at Benny and Estella. “Are you free now? Can you come and pick us up?”
Lucian’s frown deepened. “Where is your mommy? What happened to you?” His first assumption was that something had happened to them. Otherwise, there was no reason for Archie to make that request.
A few seconds of silence ensued before Archie replied, during which Lucian heard someone sobbing in the background. This further affirmed his suspicion. “Our car hit a tree, and—”
Before Archie could explain Benny and Estella’s condition, Lucian cut in, “Are you all right? Are you badly hurt? I’ll come to you right now!”
As he spoke, he strode toward the elevator quickly. Archie hurriedly explained, “We didn’t get hurt, but Benny and Essie are sick.”
Lucian was already inside the elevator when he heard that. Archie wanted to clarify further but thought he couldn’t make things clear. Thus, he said, “I’ll ask Mommy to talk to you!”
He opened the door and hopped out. Dashing over to Roxanna, he removed his smartwatch and handed it to her.
When Roxanne saw Archie appearing beside her without warning, she instinctively took one look at the car. Archie’s here. That means Benny and Essie…
“What happened to them?” Suddenly, Lucian’s deep voice pulled her out of her reverie. Roxanne stiffened in shock. She belatedly noticed the smartwatch that Archie was offering her.
Archie had turned on the speaker mode, so Lucian’s voice sounded especially loud. She didn’t know what to reply after hearing his voice suddenly.
