Chapter 1697 Heaviness

After their meal, Elektra bid farewell since she had no plans to stay. “I should go home. My family will start getting suspicious if I don't.”

Nodding, Lucian said, “Please let me know if your parents face any problems. I'll handle it.”

Elektra nodded with a smile. “Okay.”

Right then, Lucian glanced at the time and remembered they had not slept the entire night. Hence, he called out, “Wait. I'll get my assistant to send you home.”

He then turned to Madilyn and said, “You should go home and get some sleep, too. You haven't been resting much since you took care of Roxanne for the past few days. I can handle this now that she's awake.”

Madilyn did not bother arguing with him. “I'll leave Roxanne with you, then.”

Recalling the atmosphere in the ward earlier, she grew worried and added, “Roxanne has just recovered. Don't be mad at her. You two can talk it out when she's discharged.”

Lucian said nothing and gave Cayden a call to pick the two women up.

Very quickly, Cayden arrived and went upstairs to meet them.

Soon, Lucian was the only one left in the corridor.

The experts had completed the examination and called out to him, “Mr. Farwell.”

Hearing that, Lucian nodded and marched over.

Indeed, the doctors had finished examining her, but all of them were frowning.

“How did it go?” Lucian felt his heart sink, and he glanced at the person on the hospital bed with worry.

Roxanne smiled faintly, but she still looked a little pale.

When she met his gaze, she smiled wider as if she was trying to console him.

Lucian's brows creased, and he went over to hold her hand.

The doctors had been mulling over the matter for some time before finally having the guts to call him in. After hesitating for a few seconds, one of them informed him, “The hardening of Mrs. Farwell's arteries has visibly reduced, and her bleeding point is also showing signs of recovery.”
