The Abandoned Wife novel Chapter 282

Roxanne was only able to heave a sigh of relief after the doctor confirmed that Estella was fine.

However, as Lucian was still worried, he decided to admit the little girl to the hospital for one night just to be safe.

As it was getting late, Roxanne said, “Since Essie is all right, I'll take the kids back to rest first. Call me if you need me.”

She turned to leave after she finished speaking.

However, when she walked past Lucian, the man grabbed her wrist, causing her to draw a sharp breath.

“Please examine her too,” Lucian said to the doctor.

When Roxanne heard that, she rejected it at once. “There's no need for that. I know my condition best. I'm not injured and I just want to go home and rest.”

Lucian refused to let go of her.

Having no choice, the woman walked toward the doctor and rolled up her sleeves, revealing an abrasion on her wrist which Lucian was grabbing a moment ago.

She had sustained a scrape from pulling Estella back earlier on but did not want the little ones to worry about her. Besides, she was intending to treat the wound herself after getting back. She had been bearing with the pain and did not expect the man to notice it.

Lucian's expression darkened when he saw the abrasion on Roxanne's wrist.

Archie and Benny were even more worried as they exclaimed, “Mommy, you're injured!”

Roxanne flashed a comforting smile at the children while replying, “It's just a scrape. I'm all right.”

After the doctor treated Roxanne's wound briefly, the group of them left the emergency ward.

Cayden proceeded to settle the admission procedures for Estella.

As Roxanne was still worried about the little girl, she headed to the ward with Lucian.

After Estella was placed on the bed, she woke up and turned around slowly.

Archie and Benny were the first ones to notice it. They rushed to the bed at once. Looking at her excitedly, they exclaimed, “You're awake! Are you okay? Are you feeling unwell?”
