Chapter 944 Answering The Call Outside

Roxanne shut the door and gave Madilyn a call. It took a while before Madilyn answered. "Roxanne? Didn't you go camping? Is there something you need?"

Madilyn sounded pained. "Don't mention it. I was forced to work overtime again."

As soon as she said that, the noise increased. Before Roxanne could say anything, Marilyn hurriedly added, "I need to get back to work. I'll call you later."

She then hung up right away. Roxanne's gaze turned dark as her phone screen dimmed. She didn't call Marilyn back. After a brief hesitation, she tried calling Larry.
