Roxanne studied it for a little longer. Just then, Lucian called her.
She walked out of the office and filled him in on the situation.
“Mdm. Xander is in a critical state right now, so I might have to stay here tonight. I need to identify the problem as soon as possible and find a solution so I can save her,” said Roxanne seriously.
“Okay. Let me know right away if you need anything. Don't worry about the kids. I'll take good care of them. You should take care of yourself.”
No matter what, Lucian would always give Roxanne his firm support. His words filled Roxanne with a sense of warmth, and she entered the office again with newfound vigor.
Madilyn had stopped looking at the papers. She was staring at a picture of her and Lorraine in her phone, her expression blank.
Before Roxanne could say anything, tears began to fall again from Madilyn's eyes.
“Roxanne, I'm so useless. I can't find any way to save my mom. I'm terrible!”
As Madilyn blamed herself woefully, tears continued to stream down her cheeks. Soon, she began sobbing.
Unable to think of any better words of comfort, Roxanne hugged Madilyn tightly with misty eyes.
“Roxanne, my mom has suffered so much. That sc*mbag abandoned the two of us and neglected us for more than twenty years. Aside from giving us money, he never visited us. I don't get why my mom is still foolishly waiting for him. There's no way he'll change his mind! He's the most disgusting man in this world.”
