Mommy Alert! The CEO Daddy Won't Stop Courting-Chapter 197: The past is like a poison needle, he dares not reminisce...
Adrian Davies’s whole body shook.
Grandma fainted?
How could she suddenly faint?...
He couldn’t care about anything else and immediately headed out.
In the living room, Melody Parker, who had just straightened her wrinkled and disheveled clothes, saw this scene and called out to the man, "Adrian!"
Adrian turned his head to look at the woman.
Melody looked at Adrian’s wrinkled, disheveled clothes and bare feet, blushing as she reminded him, "Adrian, your clothes. And shoes."
Only then did Adrian notice his inappropriate clothes and bare feet.
While straightening his wrinkled clothes, tucking the pulled-out white shirt back into his trousers, and buttoning up, he glanced at Melody and said, "Melody, Grandma is hospitalized, I have to go to the hospital immediately."
"Okay." Melody nodded.
Thinking about how busy Adrian had been over the years, constantly traveling, Grandma must have been taking care of Daniel.
Melody looked at Adrian again and said, "How about I come with you?"
...
The two left the apartment, heading straight for the hospital.
At the hospital, the doctor came out of the emergency room and had already diagnosed Grandma’s condition.
Looking at Matthew, he said, "The old lady has suffered a stroke. If it’s severe, it could endanger her life, and even if treated, she may likely become paralyzed in the future..."
As Adrian entered, he heard the doctor’s words.
He strode to the doctor, grabbing his white coat, his eyes bloodshot as he looked at the doctor, "What did you just say? Say it again! What’s wrong with my grandma?"
The doctor, terrified of this King Yan, spoke cautiously, "The old lady, she, she suffered a stroke, very..."
Seeing Adrian’s eyes that looked like they could kill, he dared not continue.
Ever since learning that this old lady was the president of the Davies Group and Adrian’s grandmother, he had been serving cautiously.
He examined her repeatedly.
After confirming it several times, he dared only to report the results to the stern-faced butler who seemed difficult to handle at first glance.
But now, being treated like this by Adrian, he couldn’t help but doubt whether his examination might have been wrong.
He turned his head, seeking help from the director who had just arrived.
The director stepped forward, "Director Davies, please calm down. Right now, the old lady’s health is most important."
Adrian let go, his frosty eyes fixed on the director, "Do a proper examination and tell me exactly what’s happening!"
"Rest assured, Director Davies, we will do our utmost to treat the old lady properly."
With that said, the director took over the previous doctor’s work, carefully reexamining her again.
After a confirmed diagnosis, the director cautiously looked at Adrian, "Director Davies, the old lady indeed suffered a stroke. But you needn’t worry, as long as she’s treated properly, there is a good chance nothing serious will happen."
Adrian’s icy eyes coldly fixed on the director, "A good chance nothing serious will happen? So there is still a chance of something serious, or even paralysis?"
"This..." The director hesitated, then continued looking at Adrian, "Director Davies, the old lady has been overly melancholic for too long, thinking too much, which makes a stroke very normal. Currently, her energy is in disarray, the cerebral vessels are obstructed, and she has an irregular heartbeat, all signs of a stroke. And there was nothing wrong with the previous doctor’s treatment of the old lady, but..."
The director’s words made Adrian aware of the stroke’s triggers and various dangers.
He walked to his grandma’s bedside, looking at the old woman with a head full of white hair, feeling an indescribable pain in his heart.
How could this happen?
How could Grandma have a stroke?
When he was in his teens, all his relatives died one after another, leaving only Grandma beside him.
During those times, only Grandma was always there with him.
In ten years, Grandma was the only one walking with him through those unbearable memories.
He couldn’t lose her. He just couldn’t!
Watching the man standing by the bedside with a woeful expression, Melody’s heart ached.
She stepped forward, reaching out her small hand to hold the man’s big hand, "Adrian, it will be okay."
Adrian turned to look at the woman holding his hand.
Yes, it will be okay!
He wouldn’t let anything happen to Grandma!
He wouldn’t let her be paralyzed in bed, nor would he allow her to leave him!
Adrian glanced at the old woman on the bed with an oxygen mask, unconscious, then turned and sternly ordered the hospital director, "Spare no expense and give it your all to save her! Should anything happen to my grandma in your hospital, I’ll demolish it immediately!"
The director cautiously promised, "Rest assured, Director Davies, we will do our utmost to treat the old lady."
After speaking, Adrian turned and coldly instructed Ned Faris, "Ned, go find Tannis, have him come immediately!"
"Yes, President!" Ned acknowledged and departed.
However, Ned did not find Tannis.
Tannis had not returned to his laboratory, and no one knew where he had gone.
Moreover, Tannis’s phone remained unreachable.
Even stranger, Ned couldn’t even manage to pinpoint Tannis’s phone.
...
The Davies family’s grandma stayed in the hospital for a day and a night.
During this day and night, despite all efforts to save her, the old lady remained breathing but still lay in a slumber.
Adrian’s mood sank to the bottom.
He left the hospital without closing his eyes for a day and a night and headed to the CC Pub.
He entered Malcom Moore’s private room, drinking glass after glass of alcohol. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
For all these years, it was Grandma who constantly accompanied him.
She was the person he respected the most, his most important relative.
How could he watch her leave him with open eyes?
If not for the sudden deaths of his parents and the sudden passing of his grandpa, Grandma wouldn’t have been repeatedly hit, nor would she have overthought herself into poor health.
All of this was caused by Mistress Jade and Virgil Davies!
This hatred is never-ending!
His originally happy family was destroyed by that woman and that beast.
Adrian’s dark eyes narrowed harshly.
He picked up the phone and dialed Locke’s number.
The call was answered after just one ring by Locke.
Adrian heard the call connect, and in a voice as cold as ice, devoid of warmth, he coldly spoke, "Locke, contact our people in Mexico and have them take action immediately! I want Virgil Davies captured alive!"
Locke responded, "Yes, President."
Adrian hung up and continued to drink one glass after another.
"Dad, Mom, Grandpa, rest assured, I will avenge you!"
"Grandpa, rest assured, I will take good care of Grandma; I will not let anything happen to her!"
The past is like a poison needle; he dares not recall it...
