Chapter 1348
"Adrian, since we are friends, can you leave this matter to me?"
"Jaidyn, what will you do to your mom to please me?"
A cold glint flashed in Adrian's eyes. Although his tone was gentle, there was clear deterrence heard.
Jaidyn lowered his head, certainly, he couldn't think of a better way to alleviate Adrian's anger.
"Remember, just one month left. I don't want Aleigha to be angry because of this thing when she is discharged from the hospital." Adrian put out the cigarette and returned sitting. His gaze was cold. Clearly, he no longer had the mood to continue their conversation.
Jaidyn stood there awkwardly. He checked the time then he left.
At six o'clock in the evening, Emilee arrived at the hospital with Isaias.This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
They didn't know what exactly happened to Tanner, but Emilee felt that he should be in trouble from his words that day.
Moreover, the trouble had something to do with Adrian and Aleigha.
Probably, he committed a huge mistake.
Emilee was grateful for his brother's hard working outside these years.
"He should have provoked somebody he should not provoke." She thought but had no clues on how to help him out.
At last, with Isaias's suggestion, she learned that Aleigha was in this hospital.
Adrian's assistant was bringing him the dinner.
Adrian hadn't had a good rest for a few days, and his need for high-end food was also decreased.
He randomly ate the food and soup, then he stopped eating.
"Mr. Xiao, how is Aleigha?"
Emilee walked over with fear. She asked in a low voice and a very humble tone.
"Get out."
Adrian hated everything about Tanner, Emilee was included.
"Adrian, what on earth happened?"
Isaias walked forward and wanted to pat Adrian's shoulder, he didn't expect Adrian to avoid it fast.
He thought Adrian did so was because he was angry. Suddenly, Adrian stood up.
He threw a punch at Isaias's face.
The speed was too fast for Isaias to evade. He was not as tall and strong as Adrian, and he was punched to a few meters away.
"Get out of here, if I see you again, it won't be just a punch."
Adrian's eyes were cold. The gaze he looked at Emilee was sharp like a sword.
Emilee panicked because of being stared at. She wanted to ask more but dared not do so, and she could only go to help Isaias up.
"Adrian, what are you doing? Can we talk about it instead of fighting? How dare you to beat him!"
"Talk? What do you want me to say? I won't say anything. Don't come here again. Aleigha doesn't want to see you."
Adrian said coldly.
"Adrian, what did my brother do?"
Emilee asked again, and her eyes were a little dim.
Adrian lowered his eyes and saw the wedding ring on her finger. He didn't say anything else.
"Let's go. It's better to check it out by us than to ask him."
Isaias covered his face and held Emilee to leave. Emilee looked back at Adrian with much unwillingness.
Isaias didn't give her any opportunity to inquire and took her away.
Until getting out of the hospital did Emilee shake off Isaias's hand.
"How can I know more about my brother if you continue like this?"
"didn't you see Adrian's attitude? Your brother must have provoked him. If you continue to ask, I'm afraid Adrian would punch you too."
Isaias sounded very excited, but he was not blaming Emilee.
Emilee blinked her eyes and bit her lips, looking at Isaias silently.
Seeing her face, Isaias's heart ached so much that he hurriedly held her tightly.
"Sorry. I shouldn't yell at you. I was just worried that you may suffer.
You've seen what kind of person Adrian is. It's impossible for us to know more from him. Do you understand?"
Leaning in Isaias's arms, Emilee sobbed with her body kept shaking.
"I know, but I, I'm worried about my brother and Aleigha."
"Don't be afraid, I'll find out."
Isaias sent Emilee home and went to Tanner's
company alone.
Although he was not in the company, the operation was still as ever.
Except for the subordinates of Tanner who were injured or died by Maurice's shooting, the rest of his team didn't know what exactly had happened that day.
After spending a whole day investigating in his company did Isaias learn the general situation.
The assistant said while shaking. His words also made Isaias sweat.
Recalling the scene that day, the assistant felt awful.
"Is Tanner crazy?"
The assistant shook his head, "Mr. Bradshaw should be obsessed. Actually, the situation could have been turned around that day.
But that guy's phone wasn't connected all the time, then tragedy happened."
Isaias listened as if seeing the scene. He finally understood that why Adrian reacted like that.
Coming out of the company, Isaias stood in the square, not knowing how to tell Emilee the whole story.
It was not until 10 o'clock in the evening did he go home.
As soon as she entered the room, Emilee came over.
Her gentle look was like a thorn stabbed in Isaias's heart.
"Did you find out anything?"
Isaias was silent for a moment, and his eyes swayed.
"Say something!"
"Your brother, he..."
"What happened to him? Tell me!" Emilee was anxious, and her tears were going to spill out.
"Your brother sent people to kill
Aleigha, causing a serious car gha was rescued in the
for more than 20 hours."
Your brother was later taken away by Maurice, the big devil."
In Isaias's speaking, Emilee lost her strength to stand. She stepped backward and fell on the sofa.
Isaias didn't have time to stop her.
"How could this happen? How could this happen? Was he crazy? How could he kill Aleigha?
How can he do that to Aleigha? That's Aleigha!"
Emilee murmured for a while, then she cried hard. She kept repeating the sentence "That's Aleigha." Seeing her reaction, Isaias was sad. He went up to embrace her but was pushed away. "How should I face Aleigha?
She was my savior! How could I... how could I blame Adrian? How could I go there ask Adrian the whole thing?"
The longer Emilee cried, the heartbreaking she became. She never expected one day all this would happen. Outside the observation room, Adrian lit up one more cigarette.
"When did you start to smoke so much?"
At the entrance of the corridor, a deep male voice with slight mocking rang out.
Adrian looked along the voice, and he smiled.
"Why do you come?"
"What's wrong? I came to see my sister-in- law. can't I?"
"You looked thinner. Do you have bad days?"
"You're wrong. I am losing weight, and I lived like a retired old man every day. You didn't expect that i successfully quit smoking, drinking, and staying up at night."
"This is not like you, Darien." "You are not like Adrian too."
