Ex-Wife Don't Leave, Love Is Coming Again! novel Chapter 1171

The seconds continued to tick by, but the doors to the emergency room remained shut.

Lucian's heart grew increasingly heavy as he waited in the silent corridor outside.

There are at least five specialists in there! What is taking them so long? How is Roxanne doing? Maybe I should just open the doors and go check on her! No, I can't do that! I need to be rational here. Stay calm, Lucian...

Having dismissed that thought, Lucian slumped weakly against the bench in the corridor.

It's just like what the director said. Roxanne is a doctor who has saved countless lives in the past. She is kind, so I'm sure she'll be all right. For the sake of the two kids, she will definitely do whatever it takes to make it through!

He was snapped out of his train of thought when his phone started ringing all of a sudden.

Thinking that it could be something important, Lucian quickly whipped his phone out of his pocket.

However, his face sank when he saw Aubree's name on the caller ID, and he declined the call without any hesitation whatsoever.

He was about to put his phone away when he noticed the time and realized it was already evening.

Oh, the kids are about to get off school...

He massaged his aching forehead as he glanced at the doors to the emergency room, which were still tightly shut, and tried to calm himself down.

After taking a moment to regain his composure, Lucian dialed Cayden's number.

The call got through after just a few rings.

“How may I help you, Mr. Farwell?” Cayden asked anxiously.

He was the one who told Lucian about Roxanne's poisoning, and Lucian had been gone for quite a long time ever since.
