Aaron raised his head slowly, sobbing with his teary red eyes gazing at the face of his father. "Look at me, you might think I am damn harsh. You have every right to think or see things from that angle, but I want you to know that I am doing this because I love you, I am doing this for your tomorrow.""For my tomorrow?

They all turned a blind eye on him as they ran in and out of the room, Adrian was kept in.After waiting for two hours without anyone attending to him, Mr. Leonard stood up and walked into the elevator. Since the past two hours, he hasn't rested, and if he didn't take time to rest, he would probably collapse.Just before he left, he sent a message to his driver asking him to pick him up at the City hospital.

Chapter 115Audrey paid keen attention, not that she cared about what happened to Adrian, she's just here because of her father and the shit loads of money Adrian makes for the family.The doctor exhaled, "He isn't going to die, we did our best to save him by clearing the poison away from his system and blood and bloodstream.""Can I see him now?" She asked as she got on her feet, "Yes of course you can, it's just that he might not be able to speak to you. But he's stable and he has been moved out of the ICU. Please come with me," The Doctor stood up and took the lead, as she tailed him to his new ward.They both walked in and found Adrian asleep with different wires connected to his body, which was also connected to a machine. Audrey turned to the Doctor "Are you sure he is in a stable state?" It seemed too far from what he was saying because of the different things connected to his body.The Doctor chuckled as he dipped his hands into the pocket of his traditional long white coat

But she got none and it was taking a toll on her.She placed her hands on her neck, and as she continued walking to and fro, suddenly she heard her phone beep.
