All Chapters of The Ultimate Cure: A New Husband: Chapter 451 - Chapter 460

Naturally, the conversation drifted to Adriana's marriage.For some reason, it felt like the entire world already knew she and Francesco had divorced. It left her somewhere between amusement and exasperation."I heard from Oliver that you and Francesco knew each other back in middle school, became a couple in university, even reunited after breaking up—that's quite rare. How did you end up divorcing so suddenly?"Scarlet's tone was calm, neither probing nor pressing, more like casual small talk between acquaintances.Then she added, almost as an afterthought, "If it's inconvenient, just forget I asked."Adriana's fork traced slow circles over the empty plate. After a brief silence, she said, "Marriage is far more complicated than dating. Divorce doesn't necessarily mean two people become enemies. Between Francesco and me, we both have our own difficulties."Scarlet nodded thoughtfully. "From what I understand, the Este family isn't just a well-known Mitalian financial dynasty—the

Bianca kept chattering on and on, praising Sophia from head to toe.It was obvious she genuinely liked that blond, blue-eyed woman. Every word carried unfiltered affection and excitement.But Adriana could no longer hear a single thing.Those praises felt like a bucket of ice water poured straight over her head, seeping into her bones and freezing her entire body stiff.She tried to act indifferent, but something was lodged in her throat, choking off her voice.Francesco could be truly ruthless.Was it really just a hypnosis spell—enough to make him fall for someone else so easily?Or had he, from the very beginning, never truly accepted her past marriage to Chris, only pretending not to care?She reached for the end call button, but her fingers hovered above the screen, trembling slightly.At that moment, Francesco's stern voice came through from the other side."Bianca, it's late. Turn off the video and go to sleep."Bianca quickly leaned toward the camera and lowered her

"No 'buts.' I must take control of the Este family and send Bianca to Heatherton City."Francesco reached into his pocket, only to remember the cigarette case had been thrown into the trash by Bianca."Since the hypnosis made me forget my feelings for Adriana, I'll treat this as an opportunity.""Everything will be arranged as you wish, Sir."Mars said no more and went to inform his men to send the psychologist back again.Once the hypnosis was lifted, his boss would inevitably be caught in an impossible dilemma.It was better to act now—clean and decisive.As long as Francesco took control of the Este family and legally adopted Bianca into the Stanley family, he would have no weaknesses left.The Stanley family's agreement to the divorce had been made with exactly that intention.Adriana could, of course, guess that there were things Francesco could not say out loud. But she no longer wanted to keep wronging herself again and again.If he had chosen to lift the hypnosis and

"The outdoor temperature was nearly forty degrees, and she still insisted on dragging Bella out for walks, saying that more movement would increase the chances of having a son."Sunny-Mae grew more and more agitated as she spoke. She plopped down onto a chair and gulped down more than half a glass of water from the table."That's not even the worst of it. The moment Patrick comes home, she stares at him nonstop and won't let him get near Bella. She even says a pregnant woman affects his fortune."Adriana felt her heart ache as she listened. This wasn't a mother-in-law—it was outright abuse."Bella, just stay at my place and rest in peace," she said softly, holding her best friend's hand. Her palm was warm and steady."If you don't want to see Patrick, then don't let him come anymore. Every time he comes, he only upsets you.""I don't want to see him anyway," Bella said through tears. "He insisted on coming today. I thought after so many days apart, he would've changed his attitud

It was also Bella's fault—before marriage, she had hidden her true relationship history from Patrick.If he had known she had so many ex-boyfriends, with his traditional and rigid mindset, he would have likely avoided her like the plague.The lie she told back then had eventually come back to haunt her."Patrick, you're the one who was mistaken. You never truly knew me."With that, she turned without hesitation and left with Adriana.Patrick stood rooted to the spot, running a frustrated hand through his hair. A tight pressure built in his chest, but there was nowhere for it to go.No matter what Bella said, he was convinced it was Adriana who had talked her into the divorce.He got back into his car and racked his brain for a solution.Bella trusted Adriana far too much. As long as Adriana stood on her side and supported the divorce, Bella would never turn back.After a long struggle, he finally dialed Francesco's number."Francesco, this is Patrick.""Patrick.
