“What!” Adrian gasped out in shock with a surprised look on his face. He couldn't understand why they wanted to arrest him just because he was having a nice time with his wife. Wasn't Sarah his wife? Why all of this? He wished he could get an answer to those questions that were disturbing his mind but he couldn't. 

He was clueless with no direction. Once again, he would be cheated upon. 

“Come with you to your custody? What do you mean, officer?” Adrian asked with a confused look, his heart was racing rapidly. 

“Yes, you have to come with me to the custody for interrogation,” the officer said in a cold tone and Brianna hissed. 

“What's the meaning of this, officer? I told you that he has sex with my daughter. He assaulted her and you're saying you want to take him away for interrogation.”

“I thought you were supposed to take him away and lock him up in a cell,” Brianna said in an angry tone as she turned to the officer. 

“That's enough, madam. You can't tell me what to do so let me do my job,” he said in an authoritative tone and she scoffed. 

The officer brought out his handcuff and turned his cold gaze to Adrian, who was lying on the bed. 

“Stand up and let's leave, Mr. Adrian,” the officer said but Adrian shook his head in refusal. 

He couldn't let the officer take him away even when the culprit was in their midst and he could proceed with his plan if he went to custody with the officer. 

He knew he couldn't afford to go against the officer as well so he decided to come up with a way. 

“I can't leave with you because I did nothing to assault her. She's my wife,” he said adamantly. 

“It's better to keep quiet and follow me because anything you do or say will be used against you in a court of law,” the officer said and Adrian shook his head with a sigh. 

“I’ll go with you without a struggle if you can help me with one thing,” he said. 

“One thing? What is it?” The officer asked with a deep frown on his face. 

“I want to check the surveillance cameras to show how my wife was brought into this hotel. She didn't believe that it was Brian who brought her to this place,” he said and Brianna cocked her eyebrows. 

“It was Brian?” She asked with a confused look on her face. 

“Yes. I couldn't tell you because you chose to believe a stranger over your daughter's husband who has been living with you for years,” he said, with his voice dripping with coldness. 

There wasn't any change in her demeanor. She remained cold and indifferent. 

“You haven't answered my question. How does this concern Brian?” She asked. 

“That's because he drugged her and she was in a subconscious state when he brought her here that's why she couldn't remember what happened last night,” he said. 

“Stop saying nonsense, Adrian. Why are you with her since you claimed that I brought her to this place?” He asked. 

“That’s because I caught you red-handed before you could have sex with her,” Adrian half-yelled at him and he winked at him discreetly. 

She remained silent for a while, unable to fathom what was happening. 

“That's true. Why are you with her, Adrian?” Brianna asked with a cold tone and Adrian kept quiet for a while. 

“That’s because I tried to save her. Since he claimed that he didn't know anything about the incident, how did he manage to locate us?” Adrian asked and they turned to Brian, who looked away with a guilty look on his face. 

“That's a lie. I didn't bring her,” he said and wiped the bead of sweat that formed on her forehead. 

“You haven't answered my question,” Smith insisted. 

“I… I tracked her phone after realizing that her phone had died and it was unreachable so I rushed here,” Brian hesitated for a while before speaking. 

“If you didn't bring her, why did you bring the officer along…” Brianna interrupted him before he could complete his statement. 

“Will you keep quiet and stop arguing with the officer of law?” she asked with a cold look. 

“What do you need me to do for you?” The officer asked in a calm tone, ignoring Brianna's statement.

He has a calm attitude. Although he was ordered to arrest Adrian, he didn't like how he was abused in his presence. 

“Please can we check the surveillance cameras to see if he brought my wife here or not?” He asked and the officer nodded his head. 

“You guys should remain here while I get the footage from the control room,” the officer said and walked toward the door. 

“But I don't think that's necessary…” Brian stammered and called the officer back. 

“Unless you have a hand in the incident, I would advise you to stay away,” the officer said coldly and walked out of the room. 

Adrian smirked at Brian discreetly. Brian hit on his lower lips and glared at Adrian coldly. He balled his hand into a fist. He wishes he could just strangle the handicapped man before him and make this beautiful lady before him his wife. 

He knew Brianna didn't like her daughter for someone like Adrian. 

“I’ll make sure you pay for what you did to my daughter, you scumbag,” she cursed at him but he paid no attention to her. 

He was impatiently waiting for the footage so that he could clear himself and they would be able to see the culprit. 

Shortly after, the officer came with the tape and a laptop. “After watching the footage, I couldn't find any clip of Mr. Brian bringing Mrs. Sarah to this house.”

“What!” Adrian looked up with a shocked expression on his face. 

“This is it. You can see for yourself,” the officer said and handed the laptop to him then played the footage for him from the entrance of the hotel to the entrance of the hotel room where they were staying. 

A soft gasp left Adrian's lips after watching the footage without seeing any clip or footage where Brian brought his wife to the hotel as supposed. 

“As you can see, the clip showed that Mr. Brian has nothing to do with the appearance of your wife here.”

“For this reason, you're under arrest, Mr. Adrian, for assaulting your wife,” the officer dropped the bombshell.

    Getting to his medical centre which was progressing well, he entered the large shop and sat down inside one of his offices after responding to the greeting of some of his workers in his centre. His medical centre has gained popularity over the last few months as different clients of different illnesses kept getting healed for free with his medical. While some of them were ungrateful and never came back to appreciate him, most of them came back and rewarded him handsomely, promising to grow his medical centre. For that reason, he kept doing what he loved the best. Saving lives and restoring hope. He dropped the crutches on the table after sitting on the swivel chair in his office. He let out a soft sigh as he stared at the numerous paper work on his table. Some small medical businesses have been coming to him with different business proposals but he wasn't particularly interested or impressed by any of them because most of their systems and transactions weren't pure and transparent.

  • Chapter 70: Our Company

    Getting to his bus stop, Adrian alighted from the cab holding his crutches very close to him. He pushed his hand into his pocket, brought out some cash, and handed it over to the driver who collected it from him with a warm smile on his face. “Have a nice day sir,” the driver said excitedly and drove out speedily without waiting for his response. Adrian shook his head with a sigh and headed to the street that led to his small home. He entered his compound and went straight to his bedroom. He slumped hard on the bed putting the crutches beside him. He released an exasperated sigh. He was exhausted due to the work he did earlier on the pregnant woman. Although it seemed as though he didn't do much when he was with the lady, the practice took a lot of energy from him and that made him very tired at the moment. He rested for about three hours before getting himself back. He reached out to the crutches on the table and walked out of the house with the support of them. He entered a sma

  • Chapter 69: The Supreme Young Master

    The young man took a deep breath and his body trembled involuntarily as soon as the thought crossed his mind. His breathing quickened and his heart skipped a bit. He held the necklace firmly in his hand and sighed deeply, trying to control his breath that seemed out of control. He snapped out of his thoughts when the elderly woman in the house called out for his attention. He glanced at the empty room before pushing the necklace inside his pocket with so much care. He rushed into the small house of the elderly woman. “Hope all is well with my wife,” he demanded with a concerned look on his face. “Yes. All is well. She just needs to rest for a few hours and she'll be ready to leave the house,” she said and he smiled in satisfaction. “Can I go and see her now?” He asked and she nodded her head affirmatively. After getting her permission, he walked into the small room and a soft smile spread across his face as soon as his gaze landed on his wife who was smiling brightly at him. “How

  • Chapter 68: Safe Delivery

    Adrian stood there and stared at them speechless for a while, unaware of what to say. The pregnant woman kept crying on the bed that she was placed inside. He took a deep breath and made the decision. Although he had no experience in helping pregnant women deliver, he had read quite a lot of local techniques that could help pregnant women give birth with ease without surgery. He nodded his head affirmatively, unable to endure the screams and pain of the pregnant woman who was wailing in pain. “ I will do it,” he said and held onto his crutches firmly as he limped into the room. “Thank you sir,” the young handsome man said respectfully but Adrian paid no attention to him. The elderly woman followed him into the small room. She pulled off the pregnant woman's skirt and turned to Adrian, who was staring down at the woman lost in thought. He snapped out of his thoughts and turned to the woman after staring at her closely. “If we're not careful I don't think she would be able to surviv

  • Chapter 67

    “How could you do such a thing?” Adrian began to blame him and Daniel didn't like it. “Fine. I shouldn't have done such a thing but I have no choice,” Daniel said and Smith stared at him with a confused look on his face. “What do you mean? You have always had a choice. You made it so what are you saying about it?” He asked with an angry look on his face. “You won't blame me. Not like it's my fault anyway.”“If you'd listened to me when I told you to stop giving free meditation, I wouldn't have done such a thing but you didn't listen instead you ignored me,” Daniel said and he shrugged. “How could you do such a thing because of that, huh? What if that man went overboard and burned down this place just like he'd threatened?” Adrian half-yelled and he shook his head with a sigh. “Fine. I shouldn't have done it. And I'm very sorry. Please forgive me,” he said and Adrian scoffed. “Get the hell out of my face,” he said in a cold tone and Daniel nodded his head. “You won't forgive me w
