Adrian bit on his lower lips with an angry look on his face as his gaze on Brian, who had a sly smile on his face as he forced the sedative into the glass cup of drink she was holding. 

She was so carried away by his sweet words that she didn't notice what he was doing at that moment. 

He wanted to go forward and challenge Brian to spike the drink of his wife but he stopped himself as he remembered that he wasn't with any evidence. 

No one would believe it. He could only try to warn his wife to avoid and stay away from Brian. 

He had always known that Brian didn't have good intentions toward his wife but he didn't tell his wife because she would think he was jealous and she might get angry at him. 

And besides, she had been loyal to him.

He took a cold breath when he remembered that his wife and his mother-in-law were angry at him for turning down General Lei Feng's daughter's offer. 

He could only hope that she would listen to him and stay away from Brian but he wouldn't be able to do anything if she insisted on staying with Brian. 

He leaped toward his wife while clenching his crutches. Sarah looked up as she heard the sound of his crutches hitting the floor. She frowned as her gaze landed on Adrian, who was coming to her. 

“Please excuse me, guy,” she excused herself from the friends she was chatting with. Brian was among them. 

“What do you want?” She asked in a calm tone and he looked up at her. 

“I want to tell you something,” he said and cleared his throat. 

“Yes, I want to hear it. I want to know how you managed to revive Miss Evelyn and spot the problem,” she muttered in a calm tone and stared at him admiringly. 

His heart fluttered as he heard her statement. The fear and anxiety inside of her dispersed into thin air almost immediately after she finished her statement. 

He was glad that his wife didn't blame him for making such a decision. 

“I'll tell you when we get home but I came here for something else. And it's important,” he said and she arched her eyebrows. 

“Important? What is it?” She asked and stared at him curiously. 

She wondered why he looked so serious. 

“It’s about Brian,” he said and she looked up at him. 

“What's up with him?” She asked with a confused look. 

“I noticed something strange about him and how he'd been doing to you so I suggest you should stay away from him,” he said and she frowned. 

“What! Don't tell me you made me leave my friend because of this?” She asked with an angry look on her face.

He nodded his head gently. “Yes. Please stay away from him because he has bad intentions toward you,” he said. 

“Keep quiet,” she snapped at him. 

“Don't tell me that you're jealous of my relationship with him. It's just a friend and business partner relationship,” she said and scowled. 

She couldn't believe that she called him out so that she could ask him such a question. 

“But what made you think he loved it that way?” He asked and she shook her head vehemently. 

“That's enough, okay. I have had enough of you today,” she said and tried to walk away but he leaped forward and held her arm. 

“Please believe me this time,” he said desperately. 

“The last time I believed you, what did I get in return? I was humiliated and embarrassed so I don't want that to happen again,” she said and tried to snatch her hand away but he kept holding onto her. 

She got angry and pushed him away. He lost his grip on the crutches and crashed hard on the floor with a heavy thud. The noise attracted noise. 

“You should have listened when I told you to stay away from me,” she muttered and left the scene to meet Brian, who had a sly smile on his face. 

“Look at him.”

“So shameless. Chasing someone like Miss Sarah?”

“Wake up from your dream, douchebag.”

“She can't be with him.”

The people who were around mocked him but he refused to let any of those comments get to him. He ignored it and staggered back to his feet. 

He was determined to save his wife. 

He got angry and leaped toward Brian.

“How may I help you, Mr Adrian?” Brian asked, with sarcasm dripping from his voice. 

“It's simple. I want you to abort whatever evil plan you have against my wife because I won't let you succeed,” he warned. 

“Are you threatening me?” Brian asked, unfazed by Adriana's cold gaze. 

“Whatever you take it as. Stay away from my wife,” he said in a cold tone. 

“Watch and see whether I'll succeed or not,” Brian said with a smirk as he watched Sarah drinking from the wine he'd drugged. 

Adrian bit on his lower lips as he watched his wife drink from the wine. He walked out of the hotel and waited outside for an hour until Brian came out with his wife. 

His wife looked weak and vulnerable. Her cheeks were red as tomatoes. 

He decided to follow them. He couldn't afford anything to happen to his wife. 

He hailed a cab and entered it without even negotiating with the driver for the price. 

The cab followed Brian's car from a distance so he wouldn't be able to notice anyone trailing him. 

Brian stepped out of his car with a smile beaming on his face. He opened the driver seat and carried her into his arms. 

The receptionist greeted him warmly and gave him the keys to the room without wasting time. 

Adrian came out of the car and clenched to the crutches so he wouldn't fall. He brought out some cash from his pocket and handed it over to the driver, who took off. 

“Good evening, ma'am,” he greeted the receptionist after entering the standard hotel. 

“How may we help you, Sir?” She asked, staring at him disdainfully. She didn't hide the contempt in her voice. 

“Please what's the room number of the man who carried a drunk woman inside?” He asked hastily. 

“Why should I give you such vital information?” She asked coldly. 

“That's because I'm his friend,” he lied without blinking and the receptionist scoffed. 

“I doubt that. Your appearance is nothing compared to theirs,” she said. 

“What does my dress have to do with my relationship with them?” He asked in a frustrated tone and she scoffed. 

“I suggest you leave before I call the security guards on you,” she said and he ignored her. 

He glanced through her laptop and his gaze caught a glimpse of Brian's name on the system and the room code. 

He left the receptionist and ran up the stairs to the room, not caring about his condition. He wouldn't be able to forgive him if anything happened to her. 

Getting to the room, he kicked the door open, and to his surprise, the door creaked open. He clenched to the crutches to stabilize his stamina. 

His eyes burned with anger as his gaze landed on Brian, who was about to have sex with his wife. 

She was almost naked. Her clothes were stripped off. She was only in her panties and bra. 

“How dare you, Brian!”

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.

  • 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
