Chapter 35

Author: Star Pomelo
Henry couldn't be bothered to pay any attention to the slightly chaotic situation inside the hospital room. Feeling anxious, he checked on Stephanie's condition. "Where are you hurt? What did the doctor say?"

He was also someone who'd been a part of her life since she was little. It only stood to reason that he was worried to hear that she got injured and had to be taken to the hospital.

"I hit the back of my head on a cabinet. The doctor said it's just a mild concussion. It's nothing serious," Stephanie answered.

"Thank goodness you're alright," Henry said with a relieved exhale.

Then, with a puzzled expression, he turned toward Adrian and Tyler, who were standing on the side. However, being a smart man, he soon pieced together the situation himself.

Adrian helped Stephanie as she sat back in bed before saying, "Don't try to get up so suddenly again."

"Yes, I won't," Stephanie replied, her gaze lowered. "Thanks, Mr. Hawke."

After straightening up, Adrian fixed his icy stare on

  • You Wed Your Past; I Wed My Future   Chapter 100

    "Yeah! This is wonderful, Ty!" Kiara caressed her belly gently. "From now on, we'll live together happily ever after as a family of three!""That's right. You should rest first, Kiki. I'll ask the doctor for more information, like medical instructions on your pregnancy that I need to follow."After that, Tyler rose to his feet and left the ward.The moment he left, Kiara took a photo of the pregnancy report with her phone before sending it to Stephanie. She knew that Stephanie had already blocked her number, so she specifically used another number to text her."I'm pregnant, Ms. Ford. I really want to share the big news with you."Stephanie would definitely know who the baby's father was. While her death was near, the thought of inflicting one last round of pain and despair on her before she passed brought Kiara immense satisfaction. But what Kiara didn't know was that Stephanie had already changed her phone number. Meaning, the latter never saw the text of hers.…After joini

    Owen snapped out of his thoughts at that moment. He soon smiled kindly at Stephanie."Go ahead.""Do you know the exact reason why Adrian left the country? He… He's not in any sort of danger, right?"Even though Adrian had already told Stephanie that he'd return to her safe and sound, the latter couldn't help feeling uneasy for some reason. That feeling intensified when Adrian never contacted her after that particular phone call.Owen shook his head. "I don't know the exact details as well."The sight of Stephanie's worried visage made him smile. "It seems that you truly care about your marriage partner, Steph."Stephanie's ears reddened slightly. "Dad… Adrian's helped me out a lot in Hydroton. No matter what, I don't want anything to happen to him."She had just gotten out of a failed relationship recently, so she wasn't ready to immerse herself in a new relationship just yet.But that didn't mean she wasn't worried about Adrian at all."Yeah. He's a good man. Otherwise, I wo

    "But Mr. Ferguson is in charge of the business deals concerning Hydroton." Tyler disagreed with Kiara's theory. "Also, the one who struck is someone based in Jetterpolis. "Besides, no matter how powerful Mr. Ferguson is, he's still the chairman's subordinate at the end of the day. He's not an actual Ford. Why would the Fords target Grover Group just to back him up?"A pregnant pause later, Tyler continued, "Moreover, Stephanie would never target me like this."Kiara was aggravated, to say the least. But at that moment, a frightening thought flashed through her mind.Could it be that Stephanie was actually a relative of the Fords?Wait… The Fords had a mysterious daughter who never showed her face in public before. Could Stephanie be…How was that possible?However, Kiara was quick to deny that plausibility. If Stephanie truly was the daughter of the Fords, she'd have flaunted her status a long time ago! But the thing was, she had been keeping a low profile the whole time! Not

    S… That was the first alphabet of Stephanie's name, wasn't it?"Andrew Hawke…" Tyler frowned deeply, his tone icy. "That's Adrian's cousin, right?""Yup. Apparently, he's a genius painter." Kiara's tone became passive-aggressive. "I heard that he's put a lot of effort into organizing this art exhibition. Also, the domestic and international art industries put a lot of stock into this exhibition. Who'd have thought that he'd make a painting of Ms. Ford's side profile the poster of this exhibition?"Tyler remained silent. All he did was stare at the phone screen.Since when did Stephanie get to know Andrew? What sort of relationship did they share?He had never heard her mention Andrew before. "Hey Ty, could it be that Ms. Ford left Hydroton all of a sudden just so she could travel to Jetterpolis in search of Andrew?" The more Kiara spoke, the more excited she became. "It seems that Adrian isn't the one she's affiliated with—it must be the genius painter!""That's enough!" Tyle

    "Look at this, Steph!" Suddenly, Wynette thrust the tablet in Stephanie's face. A poster that was meant to advertise Andrew's art exhibition was shown on the screen.There was an incomplete portrait taking over the center of the poster. A rough sketch of a woman's side profile was drawn on the canvas. There were tiny words sketched on the bottom right of the canvas that said, "For S"."This is clearly you!" Wynette exclaimed. "S… That's S for Stephanie!"Stephanie frowned slightly in return. Andrew's poster had already sparked a huge discussion on the Internet."Who's S?""Could this be the person Andrew likes?""Is Andrew in love?""Who's his crush? I'm so curious right now!"Andrew never responded to any of the comments on the Internet. "This is rather inappropriate, isn't it?" Wynette frowned as well. "Honestly speaking, those who know you will definitely recognize you based on the side profile."The contours of the side profile on the poster were drawn in gentle curves

    "And here you are, still arguing with me." Stephanie shot Wynette a glare."Heh! I'm sorry! I won't do it again!" Wynette grinned at her cheekily.She watched as Stephanie put a painting away. "Is this the painting Andrew has given you?""Yup." Stephanie placed the lid on the case properly before stuffing the case into the gift bag. "I'm going to return this painting to Andrew."Wynette clicked her tongue while shaking her head. "Aren't you being a little too ruthless, Steph? Based on what Andrew said, it seems that he has a crush on you, right? In fact, he developed this crush on you a few years ago.""It's precisely due to that reason that I need to draw a boundary with him even more than ever," Stephanie said. "I can't give him any false hope."It was already awkward for her to mistake who her marriage partner was, to begin with. What was worse was that Andrew had feelings for her. It'd be bad for Adrian if she didn't make her stance clear to Andrew."You're right."Wynette
