Chapter 218

Aвтор: Chronos
Cassandra drank the water and, not long after, sank into a deep sleep.

Joan left the hospital and immediately called Dean.

The phone rang endlessly, unanswered. Frustrated, she put it away and headed straight to Slater Group building.

Dean was in the conference room, listening to employees report on the previous quarter's financials. His phone vibrated in his pocket; he glanced at it but didn't answer.

The meeting lasted an hour. When he returned to his office, he found Joan already waiting

  • The Ultimate Cure: A New Husband   Chapter 268

    Adriana walked to the bedside and said softly, "Daisy, get up and have something to eat.""Adriana, when did you get here?"Daisy looked at her blankly, as if she had just drifted back from another world. The servants had said she had been out of it lately—no matter what anyone said, it often took several repetitions before she would respond."I just got here. I wanted to have breakfast with you. Can I open the curtains?" Adriana asked.Daisy nodded and pushed herself up with both hands.Adriana drew the curtains open. Morning light poured into the bedroom, dispersing the heavy gloom. On the bedside table sat a bottle of medication. She recognized it—it was for insomnia.When she first married Chris, she had gone through nights of sleeplessness herself. The doctor had prescribed her the very same medication. But it was habit-forming if taken too long. Only later, when she gradually accepted reality, did her insomnia truly improve from the root.Daisy slowly got dressed. She look

    Bella's wedding was the first true moment of happiness Adriana had ever witnessed in her life—and it was something worth remembering."I want to try the blue one."Bella chose a blue wedding gown. Half an hour later, she stepped out of the fitting room and ran straight in front of Adriana's camera, spinning once in place.They stayed in the boutique until deep into the night. Only when Bella was completely exhausted did she finally leave, reluctant to part.After careful selection, she ultimately returned to the very first gown she had fallen in love with—the pink one.She liked pink. And she liked diamonds. That was enough.The bridal shop belonged to her mother's company. For her sake, the store had refused all other customers that day.Before leaving, Bella gave each staff member an envelope worth a thousand dollars."Thanks for your hard work today. Take this as a bit of good luck from me. I'll have my mom add more to your performance bonus.""Thank you, Miss Moss!"The m

    Adriana froze for a moment. "How many months along is she?""Over three months. But the fetal condition isn't stable. She should come back to the hospital for a more detailed examination.""Alright. Thank you, Alex."Still shaken, Adriana ended the call. Dean had weak sperm motility—this child had not come easily. Yet of all times, it had to be now. If only it had come a few years earlier.And Daisy hadn't told her about it—she had no idea what she was planning.Adriana couldn't bring herself to ask directly. She could only wait. If Daisy had truly decided not to divorce, then having a child… might not be a bad thing.With her thoughts in turmoil, she hurried to Bella's bridal fitting appointment.Bella had asked her to come keep her company while she tried on wedding dresses—she wanted to surprise Mr. Smile on their wedding day.When Adriana arrived at the boutique, Bella was already browsing the gowns.Seeing the happiness on her face helped ease Adriana's mood slightly."H

    "Take care."Alex personally pressed the elevator button for them and watched as they stepped inside.In the car, Daisy remained silent the entire time, her thoughts clearly elsewhere.Adriana broke the silence first. "Daisy, hormonal imbalance isn't anything serious. Don't worry too much."Daisy turned to her gratefully. "Thank you for running around for me today."In her world, perhaps only Adriana truly cared about her from the heart.And yet she didn't deserve it. Because of her concern for her own reputation, she had hidden everything about Dean and Joan.When, in fact, if she had spoken the truth, Adriana's marriage might have improved.Adriana let out a soft laugh. "Daisy, it's actually a kind of happiness to have someone I can run around for."Her life now was mostly solitary. Apart from work, the only thing she paid attention to was Daisy's condition."Adriana, you're stronger than I am."Daisy looked at her with a thoughtful, almost envious gaze.Because of Joan,

    Seated in Adriana's car, Daisy leaned weakly against the seatback."Adriana, just take me home. There's no need to go to the hospital."She had already vomited everything out in the restroom earlier—right down to the bitter taste in her throat. Adriana, however, couldn't feel at ease."Daisy, please just listen to me this once."At home, only the servants were present. If she didn't speak up, no one would even ask how she was doing."I know my own body," Daisy said softly. "It's more of a problem of the heart."Recently, she had been nauseous often. She suspected it was the medication she had been taking—too much of it had likely irritated her stomach."Whatever it is, we'll go to the hospital first and get it checked," Adriana said firmly.She pressed the accelerator and drove Daisy straight to Nash Hospital.They first checked her gastrointestinal system. After asking a few questions and conducting a basic examination, the doctor recommended that they proceed to gynecology.

    The pair of shameless lovers were sitting right in front of her, yet Daisy couldn't do anything to them.Joan leaned in toward Dean, whispering to him from time to time, completely unconcerned that others were present.Dean kept his distance as much as possible, a flicker of impatience flashing in his eyes. This was exactly why he had no intention of marrying Joan—she lacked propriety and simply wasn't presentable in public.To avoid any suspicion, he raised his voice deliberately."Joan, I heard you moved out of the Starry Villa?"Joan's expression immediately darkened.How thoughtful of Dean—so eager to avoid any public association with her."Yes," she replied coolly. "Adriana, you can move back in."Adriana lifted her eyes coldly. "I'm not interested in anything dirty. If you like it, keep it."Chris's gaze darkened as he silently drank, head lowered."Looks like Joan, after being kicked out, has already found a new admirer."Francesco glanced at Dean, his tone pointed.

    Francesco had actually recorded their conversation!Adriana's teeth itched with frustration. Truly, fate had a cruel sense of humor.Adriana: [What do you want from me?]The video he sent was clearly a threat.Francesco: [Come to the old place tonight for fencing, or this video will appear in yo

    Francesco was supremely confident, moving without a shred of protective gear.Adriana tightened her grip on her sword, testing him with two tentative thrusts—both easily dodged by Francesco.His reflexes were lightning-fast, and soon he returned a strike of his own. Adriana couldn't evade it in ti

    Daisy sat in the back seat of her luxury car, lost in thought.The driver spoke respectfully. "Madam, sir asked that you return his call."Daisy took her phone from her bag and dialed Dean."Chris isn't pretending to be sick. His face was extremely pale, and he barely had the strength to speak. I

    Daisy studied Edward, a flicker of something unusual passing through her eyes. The boy looked far too much like a member of the Slater family."Mhm, I gave birth overseas," Joan said.She gently nudged Edward toward Daisy. "Edward, hurry up and say hello to Daisy.""Hello, Daisy.""So adorable,"
