The Ultimate Cure: A New Husband Chapter 385
Francesco straightened his suit and gave a slight nod with a polite smile toward the others."Francesco, long time no see.""Long time no see."After the greetings were exchanged, Patrick led everyone to the dining room and instructed the maid to serve the dishes.To avoid drawing attention, Adriana sat between Francesco and Bianca."Bianca," she said, "the cook here at Bella's place is excellent. Try this."She placed a few of Bianca's favorite dishes onto her plate, encouraging her to taste them.Bella's gaze landed on Francesco as she teased, "Francesco, how did you manage to make Adriana lose so much weight?"Francesco picked up a dish for Adriana. "Eat more, or I'll end up being held accountable.""Who would dare hold you accountable?" Adriana replied teasingly, eating what he had placed in her bowl.Oliver ate quietly, occasionally exchanging a few words with Adriana.Seeing that Francesco's expression was a little bitter, Patrick deliberately steered the conversation

Adriana answered the call. Francesco's cold voice came through immediately."Where are you?"The question sounded completely unreasonable. She replied, "In Heatherton City.""I don't see you at home."Adriana blurted out, "Are you monitoring me?"The moment she said it, she thought of Chris's past surveillance and felt a chill rise in her chest."What the hell is going on in your head?" the man on the other end snapped. "I'm not your deranged ex-husband. Bianca wanted to come to Heatherton City to visit Grandpa, so I came with her."Bianca glanced at Francesco in confusion.She hadn't been the one insisting on coming. It was Cesco who had suggested bringing her to Heatherton City to visit Scott.Just as she was about to speak, Francesco made a "shh" gesture."I'm at Bella's place," Adriana said into the phone. "I'll go back after dinner. You can arrange your own plans.""Got it."The line went dead after a brief, indifferent reply.Bella immediately asked, "Is something wr

Adriana lay on the bed and reached out to the side, only to find the sheets cold and empty.A tear slipped from the corner of her eye, soaking into the pillow. She fell into a deep sleep amid quiet sobs.It was past ten in the morning when Adriana woke from a nightmare. She ordered takeout and ate it as brunch.Only after finishing did she settle onto the sofa and start a video call with Bella.Bella took one look at the familiar décor behind Adriana and cried out in surprise, "Adriana, baby—you're back in Heatherton City?!""Yes," Adriana replied with a smile. "Came back to see you. Are you home this afternoon?""Why wait for the afternoon? Come now!" Bella leaned closer to the screen. "Where's your husband?""He's in Mitaly on business. I came back alone.""Then just stay at my place," Bella said immediately. "Now that I'm pregnant, I sleep separately from Patrick to avoid any accidents. You can keep me company."Adriana felt her face heat up slightly. Bella really hadn't ch

"Three o'clock in the afternoon," Adriana replied.The exchange was brief and natural.Adriana had originally planned to delay her return, but she was afraid that once Isabel came back, she would lose her chance to re-enter the Este family's castle if she left now. In the end, she decided to return first and take a look—perhaps she could even seize an opportunity to seek help from Richard.Francesco simply responded with a low "mm," saying nothing more as he stepped forward.Adriana watched his retreating figure, growing smaller with each step, and a bitter smile surfaced on her lips.Was her Francesco… still there?He seemed to sense her gaze from behind. His steps slowed for a moment, but he did not stop.After lunch, Adriana said goodbye to Bianca and set off for the airport.Outside the door, Mars took her suitcase from her. "Miss Adler, I'll drive you."Adriana looked at him in confusion. "How did you know I was going back to Heatherton City?""The boss instructed me to

Bianca glanced at the tightly shut door and whispered, "Then I saw that doctor give Cesco an injection. After Cesco woke up, he took a pocket watch and kept swinging it in front of him, and the doctor also said a lot of things to him."Adriana immediately pressed, "What did he say?""At that time, Mother was also there. I was too nervous and afraid she'd find me, so I didn't listen carefully."Bianca thought for a moment, then suddenly lit up."The doctor mentioned your name."Adriana's hands clenched instinctively. "Anything else?"Bianca shook her head. "I can't remember."A thought struck Adriana like a bolt of lightning, exploding in her mind.Hypnosis.If what Bianca said was true, then Francesco might have been hypnotized.She rushed downstairs and pushed open the study door, just in time to see the doctor injecting something into Francesco.Seeing her burst in, Francesco snapped coldly, "Get out."Adriana stared at the empty syringe. "I was just worried you were sick

Adriana went upstairs and neatly put away everything Bianca had bought that day.As for returning to Heatherton City, although she had blurted it out in a moment of anger, she truly was considering it.She wanted to go back and see Bella. Ever since becoming pregnant, Bella's morning sickness had been severe, and her mood had remained poor.She also wanted to see Chris. Even if they couldn't meet or speak, secretly catching a glimpse of him would be enough.While Isabel was still away, it was the perfect opportunity to ask Bianca for a week off and make a quick trip home.After Bianca woke from her nap, Adriana brought up the matter.Not only did Bianca not object, she even wanted to go with her."I miss Grandpa Scott and Papa Richard too. Adriana, can you take me back to Heatherton City with you?" she pleaded."Of course," Adriana agreed immediately.Once they returned to Heatherton City, she could simply leave Bianca with Richard. It wouldn't be troublesome at all.During d

Adriana's dry lips felt as soft and moist as a flower after the rain, carrying a faint, intoxicating fragrance.Francesco's body froze, a low hum echoing in his mind, and a taut string within him snapped. He closed his eyes and kissed her without restraint.The scent of wine was sweet; her lips we

Francesco sent Adriana a location from the airport.Francesco: [Arrive before 10 a.m. Private jet.]He didn't mention who would be traveling with her—probably couldn't be bothered.Adriana checked with the company. Charlie confirmed that she would be the only one officially on the trip, though th

Oliver knew about their past and deliberately avoided Adriana's workstation."Mr. Este, this is the core laboratory of our building—the largest in terms of floor space."This machine was imported from Djarmany, worth over ten million dollars. Apart from me, it's the most valuable asset in this bui

A boyfriend is temporary, but a best friend lasts a lifetime.Adriana felt like she'd found a savior, almost moved to tears with relief."Bella, you're literally my lucky star."She explained the business trip to Bella."That's easy. I'll go with you to Mitaly.""No need to trouble yourself. Yo
