Semua Bab The abandoned Wife : Bab 251 - Bab 260

After a bit of coordination, all four doctors were given some patients.Roxanne breathed a sigh of relief and returned to her post to work away.Silence descended upon the cubicle. Occasionally, the sounds of the kids joking and playing around rang out, but they kept it soft. It was almost as though they were worried about disturbing the doctors.The more Roxanne worked, the heavier her heart felt.Their first round was a simple examination of the kids’ pulse and getting an idea of how their health was. Those with more complicated medical issues would have to receive extra treatment.When Roxanne first saw the abandoned kids, she was already heartbroken for them. Actually treating their condition made her feel even worse.Some of the kids had milder issues and could be cured with some medicine or via acupuncture. Unfortunately, the doctors on site couldn’t help those with more complicated issues. All they could do was send the kids to the hospital, where the Damaris family would pay f

After the little interlude between Daniel and Roxanne, the meal could be considered a jovial one.When lunch was over, the doctors grouped up according to their respective cubicles and walked back together. The children obediently followed behind. Many doctors had already formed a friendly bond with the children.The children crowded around Roxanne, causing Jack and the others to find it rather hard to move along.With some difficulty, they reached the entrance to their cubicle, and the candy in Roxanne’s purse was nearly all gone.When they entered, Daniel still had some candy left. Hence, he seemed more popular than Roxanne as the children crowded around him with smiles. They appeared to have forgotten the unhappy incident from the morning.It was heartwarming for Roxanne to see the children growing so fond of Daniel.She knew children well. They were not one to hold a grudge. No matter what one did to them, as long as one treated them sincerely, they would reciprocate with genuine

It was late at night by the time Roxanne arrived home. However, Archie and Benny were still awake. They opened their bedroom door carefully and stuck their heads out when they heard her coming up the stairs.Roxanne grew heavy-hearted as she was reminded of the kids at the orphanage when she saw the boys.Seeing her expression, the boys ran over to her and asked in concern, “Mommy, what’s wrong? Did something happen at the medical consultation today?”Roxanne forced out a smile and led them back to the room.The boys flanked Roxanne and stared at her earnestly. “Mommy, how are the children in the orphanage?”Roxanne shook her head ruefully. “They don’t have parents. In fact, some of them were abandoned by their parents because they were sick. However, they are still very obedient and understanding.”Images of those kids lying on the bed flashed through her mind, as well as those who were sent to the hospital because the doctors were helpless to treat them.After learning about their c

The meeting with the Damaris family was important, so Roxanne dressed up to show her sincerity.That afternoon, she arrived at the café earlier than the agreed time.Shortly after, she spotted Jack leading an elderly man into the café.The grey-haired man who resembled Jack was skinny and wearing a traditional outfit.It only took one look for her to guess how they were related to each other.Shocked, Roxanne got up hurriedly. She waited until they both came to a stop in front of her before giving the elderly man a polite bow.The man gave her a kind smile and observed her carefully.Roxanne had put on light makeup and tied her hair up to reveal her delicate features and swan-like neck. She looked beautiful and demure, dressed in a simple but elegant long dress.Sensing his gaze, Roxanne stood in her spot and allowed him to observe him as a smile played on her lips.A while later, the old man looked away and gestured at Jack.“Dr. Jarvis, sorry to keep you waiting.” Jack helped the ol

Catching sight of Estella having her meal gloomily, Lucian could not restrain himself from questioning, “Essie, what’s the matter? Why’re you unhappy?”Estella pouted her lips and grumbled, “You don’t like Ms. Jarvis anymore.”Flabbergasted, Lucian was silent for a few seconds before querying desperately, “What makes you say that?”Down in the dumps, Estella stared at him. “We can finally meet Ms. Jarvis during the anniversary celebration, but you don’t seem to look forward to it at all.”Lucian’s brows twitched uncontrollably as he refuted, “That’s not true.”Estella threw him a glance doubtfully. Daddy didn’t look excited at all in the car just now. Even when he’s denying it now, he doesn’t look glad at all. He’s bluffing!Sensing Estella’s doubt, Lucian frowned resignedly. “I only can’t help thinking we can’t carry on like this.”Perplexed, Estella tilted her head.Lucian stroked Estella’s head affectionately. Deep down, he knew he needed her help to mend his relationship with Roxa
