Chapter 1224 An Accidental Kiss
Inside the hospital, Adrian’s cries of pain could be heard from the hallway.

Robert’s face tightened with concern as he waited for the doctors and nurses to finish their examination. When they finally left, he and Miranda entered the room together. Adrian lay there, hooked up to various medical equipment, looking frail and broken.
“Adrian, it’s me,” Robert said, his voice softer than usual.
Adrian’s eyes fluttered open, and with great effort, he raised his hand slightly. “Dad
Tears welled in his eyes, the pain and suffering of the past few weeks etched across his face.
“It’s… Nathaniel… Adrian managed to croak.
Robert hadn’t expected that Nathaniel would go so far as to harm Adrian. His heart filled with rage. Turning to Miranda, he demanded. “Where did you find him?”
“In an abandoned dump,” Miranda said, wiping away her own tears. “If we had been any later, he might have died.”
This is outrageous!” Robert growled, his fists clenching tightly. “Does Nathaniel still think he’s the same man who once ruled Tudela? He’ll pay for this.”
“Dad, you have to get justice for Adrian,” Miranda pleaded. “Felix and I can’t go on like this. He’s in this condition because of Nathaniel.”
Despite her anger at Adrian for his past betrayals, Miranda still felt compelled to seek revenge for him. After all, he was Felix’s father.
Adrian, barely able to speak, repeated, “Dad, it’s all Nathaniel and Cecilia… You have to get back at them.”
Robert’s face darkened further, and he nodded. “Don’t worry. I’ll make sure justice is served.”
“Okay.” Relieved by his father’s words, Adrian finally closed his eyes and drifted into a fitful sleep.
Standing up, Robert beckoned Miranda to follow him. He needed to understand exactly what had transpired between Nathaniel and Cecilia over the past few weeks.
Miranda didn’t hold back, exaggerating her retelling of recent events, painting Nathanieland Cecilia in the worst possible light.
“What a menace!” Robert spat after hearing her story.
Without wasting any more time, he pulled out his phone and made a call to his subordinates, ordering them to gather information on Nathaniel’s current activities. He wanted to ensure Nathaniel learned a painful lesson.
Later that day, Cecilia, having finished work, was about to head home as usual. But as she stepped out of the building, she noticed a familiar car parked near the entrance.
The window rolled down, revealing Nathaniel’s sharp profile. He turned to her and said, “Get in

Nathaniel, with a serious expression, reminded her. “We agreed I would drive you to work, remember?”
Cecilia got into the car. “There’s no need for all this fuss. I already have a driver picking me up and dropping me off.”
Nathaniel’s face clouded with a hint of sadness. “Are you planning to cut all ties with me?”
The question took Cecilia by surprise. She quickly composed herself. “Of course not. We have a child together. There’s no way we can sever all ties.”
Relief flickered across Nathaniel’s face. He had feared she might want to completely distance herself from him.

Update new chapters please...
Thank you 😊 for the work...
Save us the distress from waiting or we are opting for others...
Hi, good morning Could you please send more chapters? To much books reading and I always forgot the story when it comes. All characters have the same name ( Cecilia, Nathaniel, Madaline, Fabian… )and lots of the names are similar in the same story, so I got confused when I don’t have all story already written. If at least you can send 10 chapters a day…. This story is as good as Mission to Remarry I can’t wait for finish it. But let’s have a great finish and a final chapter with one year of deepest love development. Thank you! Please,please, please!!!!...
What's going on? Why so few chapters?...
This chapter is completely useless!...
Why all chapters are not until the end? The new ones are never the continuation of the previous one. Also, Could you please do not use the "swnovel.net" as a water mark on the paragraphs? I use a listening device and those paragraphs are not readable....
More chapters, please 🙏...
What's going on? Is not Cassandra married? What is she doing in her mother's House?...
Waiting for more chapters...
