Chapter 943 Something Bad Happened
Just as Roxanne was trying to keep her composure and leave the place as soon as possible, a few painful groans
sounded from the backseat.
As panic swirled within her heart, she couldn’t control herself, and her limbs trembled from anxiousness. Before
Roxanne could snap out of her daze, her car was speeding right toward a huge tree.
Her mind immediately went blank. Just as the car was about to crash into it, she finally snapped back to her senses
and lifted her foot, which was flooring the gas pedal.
However, it was too late. The car slammed into the tree trunk, shaking violently at the impact. Immediately after
that, the car engine died.
Estella and Benny, who were already experiencing terrible pain in their stomach, cried out loudly when they felt the

Archie had witnessed the entire thing play out. He immediately comforted Estella and Benny, then checked on
Roxanne in concern. Roxanne’s hands were still shaking in fear.
Estella and Benny’s sobs and Archie’s questions were sounding in her ears. However, Roxanne could only stare at
the giant tree in front of her, which was still shaking due to the impact.
It had been so close. Something bad would’ve happened if she hadn’t regained her senses in time.
Not only did she fail to take good care of them, but now she couldn’t even bring them back home when they were
already feeling unwell. She had even put them in danger. Roxanne couldn’t help but blame herself. “Mommy!”
As Archie did not get a response to his question, he raised his voice in panic and urged, “Let’s go, Mommy!”
Regaining her composure, she took a deep breath to calm herself and assured him, “I’m okay. Please take care of
Benny and Estella.”
With that, she lowered her gaze and tried to start the engine. To Roxanne’s dismay, the car engine rumbled before
shutting off again. Her heart sank, and she tried to start the engine again.
However, it was to no avail. After a few tries, the car engine failed to even respond. Roxanne had no choice but to
give up. It seemed like the car crash had damaged the engine.
In the backseat, Estella and Benny were still sobbing uncontrollably. Upon listening closely, Roxanne could even
hear their voices wavering.
Roxanne’s heart wrenched along with their sobs. “I’m getting off the car to take a look,” she said. As soon as she
finished speaking, she exited the car to see if she could try to fix it.
However, Roxanne didn’t know much about car mechanics. She tried to search online and examined her vehicle for
a while, but she couldn’t figure out how to fix it.
As time ticked away, Roxanne shut the hood of her car dejectedly. She then turned and walked toward the backseat

Archie’s heart sank when he noticed his mother’s despondent mood. However, he opened the door calmly.
“Mommy, how are things?”
Estella and Benny’s sobbing traveled into Roxanne’s ears again the moment the car door was pushed open. Her
eyelashes quivered when she heard their crying.
The children were already feeling unwell. If she were to show any sign of panic, it would only frighten them even
more. With that in mind, Roxanne took a deep breath and smiled at them comfortingly.
“There’s some problem with the car, so it doesn’t work anymore. I’ll go make a call first.”
Archie nodded obediently in response and assured her, “I’ll take care of Benny and Essie.”
Seeing his mature and understanding behavior, Roxanne was touched. “Thank you, Darling.”
If it weren’t for Archie, Roxanne wouldn’t be able to stay calm in a situation like this.
It was not as if she had not been through thrilling situations like this in the past few years.
However, it was different this time. The thought of Benny and Estella being in pain made her lose her mind, and she
was unable to keep her cool.
