Chapter 89

Author: Chronos
Outside the window, a cliff stretched high, capped with pure white snow. Below, the deep blue ocean extended to the horizon. Waves crashed against the rocks, spraying foaming white water.

"This is a soundproof curtain," Francesco said. "If it's too noisy, pull it down.

"That's the bathroom. Everything's in there—brand new."

He surveyed the room before placing his hands on his hips, eyes settling on Adriana, who was engrossed in taking photos.

    But Bianca had said they weren't Francesco's children. Of course, Bianca's words could be trusted—or not."Are you sure they're yours?"Francesco's expression shifted slightly. He opened his phone gallery, pulled up the photos he had taken that day, and showed them to Luther.Luther only glanced at them once before all his doubts disappeared."Based on the timeline, you and Adriana were already divorced back then, and your relationship was strained. How could she have gotten pregnant with your children?"A meaningful smile appeared on Francesco's face."The relationship between Adriana and me isn't something outsiders can understand. And no one has ever been able to break what exists between us."Luther's face fell."What a shame. I was actually planning to pursue Adriana. Looks like I have no chance now."Francesco's expression darkened. His sharp gaze turned toward Luther, his tone serious and warning."Don't have any thoughts about Adriana. Otherwise, don't blame me if I s

    Alex noticed the shift in Chris's emotions, and a trace of worry flashed through his eyes.Ever since Chris had been deceived and hurt by his own older brother, Dean, his personality had become more stubborn and extreme. Once he set his mind on something, he refused to let go.Alex was afraid that Chris would repeat the same mistake and push himself into another hopeless situation with no way out."Whether it's you or Adriana, neither of you came by this peaceful life easily."Back then, their marriage had been turned upside down by Joan's appearance, causing a storm that shook everyone around them. In the end, both sides had suffered.At one point, he had believed the two of them would never speak to each other again for the rest of their lives. Yet somehow, they were now able to coexist calmly.For Chris, that was undoubtedly a good thing.Chris replied coldly, "Exactly because it wasn't easy, we have to hold on to it tightly."He had only eaten half the bowl of noodles. He p

    "I never had much contact with him to begin with. What happened last night was an accident," Ariana said.Maeve gradually stopped crying. Her little mouth moved as she babbled softly.Adriana couldn't understand what she was saying, but Milo seemed to have caught on. He babbled back at his sister as if responding to her.Chris gave a quiet hum and smoothly shifted the topic away.The fact that Francesco and Sophia still had unfinished ties wasn't necessarily a bad thing. At least it would allow Adriana to see clearly that Francesco was nothing more than a two-timing hypocrite.The two of them were still talking when Heidi entered carrying a food container.She had brought Adriana's lunch and the babies' food. When she saw that Francesco was gone, she let out a quiet sigh of relief.But when she noticed Chris, her expression became awkward."I didn't know Master Chris was here too. I only brought enough food for Miss.""It's fine. I'll go downstairs to eat later."Chris picked

    The ward was filled with a rare sense of ease as Adriana and Francesco chatted casually, exchanging occasional jokes.Francesco placed the freshly washed baby bottle heavily on the cabinet. The dull thud instantly broke the relaxed atmosphere.Adriana's smile faded, and she simply said, "Thank you."Chris lifted his eyes. His gaze landed on Francesco, the corners of his lips curving slightly, though the smile never reached his eyes."I heard from Adriana about what happened last night. Thank you for taking care of them. Now that I'm here, Francesco, you can go back and rest."His voice was calm and gentle, yet his manner made it sound as though he were the host of this place.Francesco did not move. Instead, he shifted closer to the baby's crib. His fingertip brushed lightly across Maeve's cheek as he spoke lazily."Chris, the fact that you don't need someone to take care of you already counts as a blessing. How could you possibly have the energy to take care of someone else? In

    Sometimes, Chris couldn't even tell whether Adriana truly cared about him, whether she was merely using concern as an excuse to reduce the chances of seeing him, or whether she was constantly reminding him that he was nothing more than a sickly cripple.Now, even when the children fell ill, the first person she notified was Francesco.Was it because Francesco was strong and healthy? Or was there another reason?Seeing him standing motionless by the door, Adriana assumed something was wrong with him. She immediately stood up, concern flashing across her face."Chris, what's wrong?"Chris tugged the corner of his lips into a smile."Are the children all right?"Seeing that he looked fine, Adriana let out a quiet breath of relief and sat back down."It's infant roseola. Their fever has already gone down. The doctor said it's nothing serious."Chris nodded, but his gaze darkened."Why didn't you tell me the kids fell sick?""I was just worried you'd be anxious," Adriana explaine

    Adriana slept deeply. When she groggily opened her eyes, the first thing she saw was Francesco leaning over the small crib, grinning foolishly at the two children.The usually sharp and imposing features between his brows had softened completely.She glanced at the time and was stunned to find that she had slept until after nine in the morning. During all that time, the children hadn't cried or made a fuss even once."How are the children?" she asked as she sat up."They developed a rash. The doctor checked them already. It's nothing serious, so don't worry."As he spoke, Francesco stood up and went to retrieve the breakfast on the table."Daniel and Heidi both brought breakfast over. I'll heat it up for you."Adriana was indeed hungry, so she didn't refuse. She softly thanked him before leaning over to look at the two babies in the crib.Both children were awake, their little eyes wandering curiously around.To help develop their ability to focus, she usually deliberately gav

    "I can keep investigating for you, if you'd like," Charlie offered.In truth, he could have followed the trail and uncovered whoever was behind it. But the matter might involve Adriana's privacy, so he chose not to pursue it further.Adriana thought for a moment. "Then I'll trouble you, Charlie. C

    "I tripped and fell. It's nothing serious."Daisy smiled, but the movement tugged at the injury on her face, making her wince.Adriana leaned in for a closer look. Besides the bruising, it was visibly swollen."You really have to be careful. You're so beautiful—can't risk damaging that face," Adr

    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 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,"
