The Ultimate Cure: A New Husband Chapter 324
Bella glanced at her through the rearview mirror. "It's your ex. Do you want to pick up the call?""Answer it. Tell him I'm fine. I'm with you."Adriana's mind was a tangled mess. She still didn't know how to face Francesco yet, but there was no reason to let him worry.Bella answered and turned on speaker mode."Mr. Este, something wrong?"Francesco's voice was steady, though a trace of urgency still lingered beneath it. "Have you contacted Adriana?""She's with me," Bella replied. "Did you need her for something?""How is she doing?" he asked.Bella glanced at Adriana. "Just a little emotionally low. Everything else is fine. Don't worry.""Please take care of her," Francesco said."Of course."Bella ended the call almost immediately. Yet even after hanging up, the heavy atmosphere in the car couldn't suppress her curiosity."Is something going on between you and Francesco?"At Daisy's funeral, she had already noticed it—the way Francesco looked at Adriana had changed. Th

Adriana snapped, "I'm an independent adult with my own personality and the ability to think for myself. I don't need you two to make decisions for me."Fearing she was only probing again, Alex cautiously asked, "What do you know?""Chris is completely paralyzed and going to a sanatorium in the south. What else am I not supposed to know? Please—just tell me everything."Her tone softened slightly, just like her heart. No matter how much she had gone through, it was still difficult for her to become truly hard.After a long silence, Alex chose to tell her the truth—including the fact that Chris might only have five or six years left to live.If he continued hiding it and something truly happened to Chris later, Adriana would carry that burden for the rest of her life."Adriana, don't let Chris find out you know. He'll worry about you.""I understand."She hung up.Inside the car, she felt as though she were no longer sitting in a vehicle at all, but standing alone in a vast, des

"You're crippled, and you're going to prison anyway. Only I can give Edward a good life!"Dean refused to give up. Now that Joan was facing jail time, it was the perfect chance for Edward to break free from her.Joan ignored him and shouted, "Nurse, I'm in pain!"Two nurses came in and said to Dean, "Sir, please leave."With no choice, Dean stepped out first. He immediately called his assistant and ordered him to investigate Edward's whereabouts.Joan clenched the bedsheets tightly, her chest tight with suffocating pressure.Once Edward was handed over to Dean, she would lose her son forever.Dean was far more ruthless than Chris—he only loved himself.Gritting her teeth, she contacted a friend working in the media industry."I've got explosive dirt on Dean Slater, chairman of the Slater Group. Selling it cheap."The other party was skeptical. "Isn't he your ex-fiancé's older brother?""The person he cheated with is me. He even forced his wife to death for me. Is that explos

"Alex, please tell Chris that I've resigned. And that I'll be going abroad for a while. Please take good care of him, Alex."With that, Adriana stepped into the elevator.Downstairs, she ran into Alfred and Cassandra.Alfred was holding Dennis in his arms, while Cassandra carried a bag of medication.Adriana originally intended to pretend she hadn't seen them and leave, but Cassandra stopped her."Adriana, what happened between you and Joan can be considered even now. You teamed up with Francesco to scheme against the Hill family, and you exposed Edward's identity. Joan did hit you with her car, but Chris took the blow for you."Adriana looked at her expressionlessly. "Say what you want to say.""Since we're even now, I hope you and Chris won't take revenge on our family. And even if you still hold resentment, that's between you and Joan. The guilty pay the price."Only then did Adriana understand the underlying meaning of her words.In other words, don't drag her son Dennis i

After finishing her work, Adriana dozed for a little over three hours.Alex had said that Chris couldn't eat yet, so she didn't prepare breakfast for him.When she arrived at the hospital, Chris lay in bed as a nurse adjusted his IV.The sight of him startled her—he was so gaunt he looked like a withered branch.When he saw her, a shadow fell over his ashen face."What are you doing here?"His tone was sharp, his eyes fixed upward on the IV bag.Adriana froze for a moment, assuming he was simply in a bad mood from the pain."Chris, I came to see you. How are you feeling?"Chris let out a cold laugh. "If it weren't for you, I'd be doing much better than I am now."Adriana forced a smile, patiently asking, "What do you mean?""Why did you tell me Edward's real identity?"Only then did Chris glance at her, his gaze icy.Adriana looked completely at a loss, unsure how to answer.Why? Of course, it had been to expose Joan—to keep Chris from being deceived any longer.But it w

"I'm planning to resign."On the way to the cemetery parking lot, Adriana spoke suddenly.After what had happened to Daisy, she no longer wanted any connection to the Reeves family—including her position at Sanctity. She didn't want that job anymore either.Francesco wasn't surprised in the least. "With your ability, you'll do well wherever you go. Of course, I'd prefer it if you would come to Paradigm.""After I resign, I'm thinking of traveling for a while."It was already the end of the year. Adriana planned to look for a new job next year. But she wasn't considering Paradigm. Perhaps she would partner with Bella and move into the pet industry.Francesco drove her home. When they arrived downstairs, Adriana thanked him."Thank you for taking care of me these past few days. You've worked hard too—go home and get some rest.""Mm. Call me if you need anything."Francesco nodded. He watched her enter the elevator before driving away.Adriana slept straight through until around

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,"
