The Ultimate Cure: A New Husband Chapter 150
"Sorry, Tony didn't mean any harm—he's just overly protective of me," Keisha stepped forward, smiling as she gently grabbed Adriana's hand."Adriana, we're family. Don't be upset."Family?"I don't have family like you." Adriana pulled her hand back, expression icy.Someone who had wanted to ruin her since childhood—what kind of family member is that? Only an enemy."Oliver, I'm heading out." She didn't want Oliver to be caught in the middle, since they both worked in the lab."Oliver, please transfer me to another lab. I refuse to work alongside someone who constantly bullies my girlfriend."Tony adjusted his glasses, jaw tight with tension.Oliver sighed in resignation. "Submit your request tomorrow; I'll approve it."Keisha reached out to touch his arm. "Oliver, don't blame Tony entirely. My cousin…""I'll ask Adriana myself," Oliver interrupted, grabbing his coat from the chair back and leaving in a hurry.Not long after Adriana had walked away, a Land Rover pulled up be

No wonder Chris had acted that way last night—it all made sense now. The entire ordeal had been a calculated scheme between him and Joan. She had merely meddled where she shouldn't have."Adriana, our score isn't settled yet," Joan said, lips curling in triumph as she assumed the posture of a victor, gliding away on her heels with effortless grace.Adriana's gaze followed her retreating figure, eyes growing colder by the second.Indeed, it wasn't over. She intended the same.For now, she set aside the issue of Joan's intrusion into her marriage—Chris bore far greater responsibility. But the abduction and the drugs… if not for Francesco's timely intervention, either could have destroyed her.Add in the covert photography and the rumors circulating about her, and the list of offenses became unforgivable. Each transgression left scars that no apology or explanation could erase.After work, Adriana headed to the lab for overtime. The custom walker she was designing for Chris was near

Inside the Slater family villa, Chris was in the shower when his phone on the study desk rang twice.Joan happened to be in the study and glanced at the screen. Seeing the words "Darling," her expression darkened instantly.She quickly scanned the room to ensure no one was around, then picked up the phone and opened the chat.Adriana's message appeared on the screen, and Joan's nerves tightened like a drawn bowstring."That Adriana… always scheming behind my back. So damn shameless!"She muttered under her breath, her fingers flying over the screen as she sent two rapid messages:Chris: [Do not ever accuse Joan again. I know everything she does—no need for you to act as my informant.]Chris: [She is the mother of my son. She is incredibly important to me. Stop replying—you're annoying me!]She stared at the screen for a moment, confirming there would be no response, then quickly deleted both her messages and Adriana's previous messages.Given her knowledge of Adriana, that stu

"No big deal… just feeling a little down," Adriana said.Brian loved sweets, so Adriana reached into her bag and pulled out a chocolate bar, handing it to him."Thanks for speaking up for me just now."He tore off the wrapper, broke the bar in half, and handed her one piece. "I know you're not that kind of person."The simplicity of his words washed away the lingering heaviness in her chest. A colleague who only knew her through gossip wasn't worth the frustration.Day after day, she worked side by side with Tony in the lab—steadfast, competent, kind—and yet he refused to trust his own eyes, listening only to Keisha's manipulations. Reliable in work, clueless in judgment."I'm heading back first. You should get home early too," she said.Since moving out of the dorms, Adriana had settled into a spacious apartment in Rosewood Avenue. The commute was longer, but the comfort made up for it.Still, with the ever-present bugging devices, she sometimes felt like she was living in an

Three days later, Adriana was scrolling through the news when she saw the photograph of Joshua in handcuffs.The report stated that Joshua and his father were implicated in major financial crimes and faced at least twenty years in prison.It was poetic justice, a long-awaited sense of satisfaction flooding her chest. The shadow that had weighed on her heart for so long finally lifted. That nauseating face—the one that had haunted over a decade of nightmares—was beginning to fade from memory.That evening, she went to the lab for overtime as usual. Tony was there, too.They had worked together for over half a year, and Adriana knew him to be upright and fair. She had no doubt that he had nothing to do with what had happened previously.But today, upon seeing her, he remained silent, his face set in a stern expression.She greeted him with a smile, yet he didn't even lift his head. Anxiety prickled in her chest. Perhaps Keisha or Joan had twisted the story behind her back. She step

Francesco lifted the blanket. "Go take a hot bath. I've already run the water."Adriana sat up, cheeks flushed. "I… I'm sorry—"He cut her off coldly. "Consider today as if nothing happened."Then, after a pause, he added, "Just between us. You and them… that matter, it still needs to be settled.""Mm."Adriana nodded, slipping into the bathroom. She sank into the steaming water, letting her tired body relax. The warmth seeped into her pores, easing the tension that had coiled in her muscles.She had only gone to the party at a colleague's invitation, yet it had ended in chaos. All the hardships of the past half-year could ultimately be traced back to one person—Joan. And now, there was an additional figure: her cousin, Keisha.Aside from Joan and Keisha, she couldn't be certain if her aunt had played a hand in today's events. Her aunt and mother shared a resemblance, so Adriana bore traces of her aunt's features as well. When she was first adopted, her aunt's friends even joked

Adriana stepped forward with calm composure. "Dean, gentlemen, this really isn't such a big deal. I'm sorry you had to make the trip."Dean got straight to the point. "Where's Chris?""He's in his ward. The doctor has instructed that no one disturb him for now, and he doesn't wish to see anyone."

Francesco opened his hand, revealing a sky-blue diamond earring of incalculable value resting in his palm.The air seemed to freeze. Adriana felt as if she'd fallen into an ice cavern, staring at him in disbelief.The earring had been a gift from Grandma Rosie for her eighteenth birthday—a coming-

"Adriana, come with me to a business dinner tonight."Adriana froze. This was the first time Chris had asked her to attend an event with him."Let Joan go with you," she said hesitantly. "I want to stay home and work on some drawings."She didn't want to go, especially not as Chris's wife. With l

Chris looked at Joan. "Joanie, go home and take care of Edward. I'm fine now."Joan pursed her lips, scowled, and left without another word."You okay?" Adriana asked.Chris didn't answer, just reached out his hand.Adriana hesitated for a moment, then offered hers. He shook his head.After a b
