Madilyn began calculating in her mind. If she asked Lucian to go with them, then she would not have to spend any money on this outing. However, her happiness was short-lived. “Roxanne passed out and is still unconscious. She’s at the hospital now.”
When Madilyn heard that, her expression froze. “What on earth happened to her? Which hospital are you in? I’m coming over right now!” she asked in disbelief.
Lucian promptly gave her the address. Half an hour later, Madilyn rushed in in a frenzy, her eyes reddened with emotion.
When she saw Roxanne lying motionless on the hospital bed, she could not stop her tears from falling. “What happened? How did she end up like this? Is this how you take care of her?” Madilyn took one look at her best friend and immediately began to bombard Lucian with questions.
“It’s my fault,” said Lucian solemnly. “Roxanne…” Madilyn was not in the mood to listen to Lucian. After hurling more words of resentment at Lucian, she clutched Roxanne’s hand and murmured, “Can you hear what I’m saying? Won’t you wake up? If you keep this up, the children will be very worried…”
No matter how much Madilyn begged and pleaded, Roxanne did not respond in the. slightest. Finally, Madilyn realized her efforts were futile. She raised a hand to wipe away her tears before looking at Lucian once more. “What’s her prognosis? Did you get a doctor to look at her? What did the doctor say?”
Lucian stared into the distance and frowned slightly. “I’ve sent for traditional medicine practitioners and regular doctors, but they’ve yet to arrive at a conclusion. That’s why I wanted you to examine her and see if you can find any clues.”
When Madilyn heard this, her eyes reddened again. The Farwell family has sought out doctors, and I’m assuming they’re the world’s best experts in this field. Even they can’t figure things out? What on earth happened to Roxanne?
Madilyn held back her tears and forced herself to maintain her composure. Immediately after, she began to ask Lucian about Roxanne’s condition. “How long has she been out for?”
“She passed out when I went to pick her up from work yesterday,” said Lucian.
This made Madilyn agitated once more. “Then why didn’t you inform me sooner? Do the kids know?”
Faced with Madilyn’s questioning, Lucian could not offer any other explanations. All he could say was, “I merely told the kids that Roxanne was away on a business trip.”
Madilyn let out a sigh of relief. “That’s also fine The kids are so young, after all. We shouldn’t frighten them. Having said that, Madilyn returned to the topic. “Apart from this, is there any other information you can provide me with?”
Lucian then recounted the story of Roxanne’s drugging once more. Upon realizing that Roxanne was drugged via inhalation, Madilyn looked at her best friend, who was lying on the hospital bed. Her eyes were filled with pain.
“What a vicious method that person used! I doubt anyone would’ve anticipated being. drugged like this…” said Madilyn. Roxanne was very trusting of others. Even if she woke up and found out that she had been drugged by someone else without realizing it, there was no telling if she would. have learned a lesson.
Madilyn retracted her gaze from Roxanne and proceeded to question Lucian. “What about the doctors you hired? Do they really have no clues at all?”
At the very mention of those idiots, a hint of displeasure flashed across Lucian’s eyes. “There’s no conclusion yet. I can call them in and ask them to tell you what they’re thinking of right now.”
Madilyn nodded. “Okay. I’ll go talk to them. myself. Don’t worry. Roxanne’s problems are my problems too. I’ll do my best and try to find at way to cure her!”
“Thank you,” said Lucian. Madilyn seemed to be a little unhappy at this. “Roxanne and I have never been this courteous with each other before. Why don’t you try to figure things out too? I’ll be here keeping. watch.”
Lucian hummed in response and turned to leave..
