    Chapter 1623 Emergency


    Roxanne resisted right away when she heard where he was taking her to.


    “I''m fine. How could I be sick when I was perfectly okay when I left the house in the morning?”


    As she spoke, she checked her pulse in front of Lucian in hopes of proving herself right.


    She could tell she was unwell, but she did not take the symptoms seriously.


    All she wanted was to assure Lucian.


    Hence, she took her time to check her pulse thoroughly.


    Lucian slowed the car down while watching her from the rearview mirror.


    As time ticked away, the tension in the atmosphere became more and more palpable.


    Roxanne''s fingers were still ced on her wrist as a solemn look appeared on her face.


    Something is wrong with my pulse!


    She tried to check further but to no avail, and it caused her to be perplexed.


    “How are you? Any difort?” Lucian could not wait any longer.


    Roxanne snapped back to her senses and gazed at him.


    Judging by his tone, she knew how worried he was.


    The man clenched his jaw tightly. How he wished he could fly her to the hospital immediately!


    Seeing so, her worries gradually disappeared as a warm and fuzzy feeling crept up on her.


    She gave him aforting smile. “It''s not a big deal. I merely overworked myself. I''ll be fine after


    having some traditional medicine for two days.”


    She did not want him to feel anxious.


    Furthermore, Roxanne did not think that the hospital could identify the root cause.


    With some extra time on hand, she was more inclined to study her condition on her own.


    Since her symptoms were not serious, Roxanne thought she could take her time and check on her


    health.


    Conversely, Lucian remained resolute. “It''s best you get a thorough check-up at the hospital. A doctor


    can''t treat himself, and there''s no guarantee you took your pulse correctly. There''s a hospital nearby


    owned by Queen Group. I''ll take you there.”


    Roxanne knew how worried he was, so she stopped insisting. “If going to the hospital would make you


    feel better, let''s go then.”


    Subsequently, she ced her fingers on her wrist discreetly, trying to figure out what was wrong with


    her pulse.


    Lucian, on the other hand, elerated all the way.


    Unbeknownst to Roxanne, her face looked exceptionally pale.


    As time went by, Lucian started to sense something was amiss.


    Roxanne''s lips became darker and darker, to the extent that they turned purple!


    No, this doesn''t look like a regr illness. She seems to have been poisoned!


    “I''m going to call Cayden and ask him to pick the kids up.”


    He tried to engage her in a conversation while driving. “Is there any message you want him to pass to


    the children?”


    At that point, Roxanne''s consciousness was slowly drifting away. Finally, she realized how serious her


    condition was.


    She felt so weak, and her eyelids were getting heavier by the second.


    “I...”


    Before she could utter one more word, her head fell toward the door, and she fainted.


    “Roxanne!”


    Lucian floored the elerator as he struggled to reach her hand.

    He was shocked to find out how icy-cold her hands were.


    Lucian kept rubbing her hands to keep her warm.


    “We''re almost there, Roxanne. Everything will be fine. I won''t let anything happen to you...” He did not


    know if the words spoken were meant tofort Roxanne or himself.


    Suddenly, he thought of something and quickly whipped out his phone. He called the hospital and


    requested that all the medical specialists from each department be on standby.


    After hanging up, he still did not feel at ease. Immediately, he instructed his men to search for the best


    specialists in the world and bring them over by private jets.


    As soon as Lucian arrived at the hospital, Roxanne was rushed into the emergency room by the


    doctors and nurses.
