" She woke up for a while last night, but she fell asleep quickly. She's still sleeping now." "I see. She'll get better, won't she?" "Most probably, yes." Avery fed him ssoup and said, "You should stay in Bridgedale for now, Adrian. Once Shea is discharged from the hospital, both of you can stay together with Wesley. He'll take care of you two." "What about you?" Adrian asked.
"I'm going to find Elliot, and when | do, we’ll go back to Aryadelle together. Is that okay?" said Avery explaining her plan.
"Okay. | won't be that bored once Shea's with me." Adrian began to imagine his future.
Avery looked at the smile on his face and smiled too.
Her cell phone rang after she had breakfast, and her buoyant mood disappeared as soon as she saw the n* Cole’ on the screen.
She did not reply to the message he sent her the previous day, and he decided to call her because he could not wait any longer.

When she picked up the call, Cole asked immediately, "Avery! Why didn't you reply to my message? You're not trying to disappear, are you?!" "I couldn't have answered your text even if | wanted to.” She looked at the bright sunlight outside the window and asked coldly, "It's not tyet, right?" "You didn't reply to my message yesterday, so | took a flight and rushed here last night, " Cole said, then asked, "Which hospital are you in? I'll go there right now and take care of Adrian." Avery's heart tensed. "Don't be ridiculous. How are you going to take care of him when you can't even take care of yourself? | know what it is you're worried about, Cole "In that case, tellwhich hospital you're in! If | don't see Adrian today, I'll go to your house =g$=WJW; wait there for you. | know where your place is. " Cole had cprepared.
After a few seconds of silence, Avery told him the nof the hospital.
She was confident she could deal with Cole in Bridgedale.
Cole cto the ward about half an hour later and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Adrian was resting with his eyes closed. "He's fine, right?” "He might be, but he can't be discharged right now. If you plan to take him away within the next two days-" "I didn't say | was going to take him away within the next two days. I'll bring him withafter he's discharged from the hospital.” Cole looked at Avery with a triumphant smile, "Once | bring him back to the country, the Sterling Group will end up in my hands at last. Don't you regret not being with me?" Avery was disgusted by his wretched smile.
"Cole, are you here alone?" "Are you testing me?" Cole leaned closer and looked at her face which was lined with exhaustion. "Why would | calone? Adrian's is the key to my fortunes. | hired a team of elite bodyguards that are on call near the hospital." "Oh, bodyguards you brought from Aryadelle?" "Yeah! Are you afraid?" "I'am. | really am," Avery said and glanced at Adrian. "His urine bag is almost full. You can change it later. If he needs to take a dump, you have to help him into the bathroom."
