Chapter 1044
A moment ago, a doctor called Avery said that a patient called Adrian White was looking for her. The
doctor wondered if she could make a trip to the hospital.
When Avery heard Adrian’s name, she did not even think about it before agreeing to it.
She was worried about it during the journey there. Was Adrian sick? If it was not serious, he would not
have been sent to the hospital. Why was it the doctor who contacted her but not Nathan?
Who told the doctor to contact her? It was not Nathan. If Nathan wanted to contact her, he did not need
to go through the doctor.
At that thought, Avery furrowed her brows tightly.
At the hospital, Adrian was transferred to a normal ward. When Nathan found out that Adrian deliberately
swallowed his antihypertensive drugs to poison himself, he was furious.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThat idiot knew how to swallow pills to take his life! Nathan was not going to let Adrian die, even if Adrian
wanted to!
If Adrian were to die, how could Nathan use him to threaten Elliot? How was he going to extort money
from Elliot?
No matter what, he had to get another lump sum of money from Elliot.
Even if Elliot did not acknowledge him as his father, Nathan could ensure that he did not need to worry
for the rest of his liedfe.
Forty minutes later, the door to the ward was pushed open. A strong, burly man walked in and chased
Nathan away.
“What are you doing? Who are you?” Nathan yelled. He was frightened. “That’s my son! Have you
mistaken me zafor someone!”
The bodyguard looked impatient. “Is the patient called Adrian? My boss got me to come to protect him!”
“Who is your boss? Adrian is my son!” Nathan yelled gofuriously yet helplessly..
If he was younger by twenty years, he might have fought the bodyguard. However, at that moment, he
was old. His bones were not that strong anymore. He did not dare to fight with the bodyguard.
“My boss, Avery Tate!” The bodyguard stood next to the bed and yelled at Nathan. “She is in the doctor’s
office right now. Go and look for her! 194f you dare to touch her, I will make sure
you won’t live to see the night!”
Nathan gritted his teeth and rushed to the doctor’s office with a sinister expression.
Once Avery found out about Adrian’s condition through the doctor, she came out of the office and
bumped into Nathan, who went there looking 34for trouble.
Seeing him, Avery stopped in her tracks.
53″Nathan, let’s talk!”
“Bloody hell! Avery! Are you trying to take my son away from me?” Nathan barked, “Adrian is my son! It

“If he is your biological son, you would not have said the word legal,” Avery said, “Adrian is not your
biological son. He was adopted, wasn’t he?”
“So, what if he was adopted? He is still my son!” The facial muscles on Nathan’s face twitched. “If you’re
not going to ask your bodyguard to leave, I’ll call the police!”
Avery was not afraid of his threats. “Okay, call the police right now. When the police come, I can tell them
that you abused Adrian!”
Nathan was stunned for a while. “Abuse? What abuse? I have never abused him! He was the one who
swallowed the pills, trying to take his life…”
“If you didn’t abuse him, why did he try to take his life? Nathan, you better think this through before
coming at me.” Avery pushed Nathan away. “Adrian is not an idiot anymore. Once he gets discharged, I
will take him for an intelligence test. If he is not an idiot and he doesn’t want to stay with you, he gets to
decide on his own! I will not let you bully him anymore!”
Avery’s words intimidated Nathan so much that he remained dazed in the same spot.
Intelligence test? Letting Adrian decide? If he were to do what Avery said, Adrian would surely not want
to stay with him!
