In Jany City, what kind of person could injure Adrian like this?
Janice’s misty eyes perfectly conveyed her worry and innocence. This situation was far from simple, causing her to harbor suspicions about that person.
Upon hearing Janice’s words, Alexander furrowed his brow slightly and turned to the woman beside him, maintaining his respectful tone. “I apologize, Ms. Potter, but Mr. Olson has instructed that this matter must not be divulged.”
Janice suppressed the anger in her eyes. She didn’t consider herself an outsider.
However, observing Alexander’s behavior, it was clear that he had been briefed by Adrian. How frustrating…
Had Adrian become so guarded against her?
This stark contrast and subtle shift only fueled her anger. All these changes were because of Sienna, that woman.
Despite it all, Janice managed to conceal her true emotions. “If anything happens to Adrian, please inform me immediately.”
She pleaded with concern, pausing briefly to glance back at the closed door.
She thought, “Adrian… Just wait, you’ll eventually be mine.
“Sienna doesn’t deserve you!”
“Oh, by the way, where is Sienna now? How is she doing? I want to visit her and apologize in person,” Janice deliberately probed, assuming a pitiful demeanor.
She seemed to already know the answer, so the response didn’t surprise her.
“Sorry, Ms. Potter. Mrs. Olson is resting now.”
Alexander implied that Janice couldn’t see Sienna.
Janice clenched her fist tightly, consumed by jealousy.
Why was Adrian protecting Sienna so fiercely? Even though he was seriously injured, he still cared about Sienna?
“Oh, okay. Then I can only wait until she’s better to apologize. Mr. Walsh, if you see Sienna, remember to convey my apology.”
Janice sniffled softly, wiping away the tears that hadn’t dried from the corners of her eyes, and continued walking forward.

Where no one could see, her expression instantly transformed into a cruel visage that bore no resemblance to her previous facade.
Late at night.
Alexander remained faithfully by Adrian’s side. The Olson manor was now filled with all kinds of
doctors, as Adrian had once again fallen into a state of unconsciousness.
“Mr. Walsh… Mr. Olson’s condition is not looking good. His fever remains persistently high, and we’re unable to bring it down. If this continues, it may lead to an infection in the wound.”
“Yes, and due to the depth of the wound, the bleeding is still increasing… If this continues, there could be a risk to his life,” another doctor added.
The private doctors appeared uneasy, sweat on every forehead.
Alexander’s gaze turned solemn. As Adrian’s long-time special assistant, he had witnessed
countless situations, big and small, but so severe as this was the first.
However, they couldn’t afford to panic at this moment. The news had been effectively sealed off,
and any leak would undoubtedly attract unwanted attention from various factions, leading to
unnecessary trouble.
Throughout the years by Adrian’s side, Alexander had learned the art of staying calm.
Just then, the door was pushed open, and Frederick hurriedly entered the room.
“What’s wrong with Adrian? Let me see… This brat…”
The voice, initially filled with a hint of amusement, abruptly halted upon seeing the man on the bed.
Frederick’s expression changed accordingly.
“What’s going on?”
Adrian’s pale complexion and rare tranquility revealed the severity of the situation. Gone was his
usual fierceness, replaced by a somewhat inexplicable meekness.
“Mr. Law… Mr. Olson is seriously injured. He has a high fever that won’t subside and signs of infection,” Alexander pushed his glasses up slightly, choosing not to disclose the whole truth.
However, Frederick approached with long strides, his gaze flickering as he examined Adrian’s
wound, his worry evident.
“Have you contacted Jason?”
His voice carried a heavy burden.

Alexander nodded. “Someone has been sent to fetch him. He’s in Marvonia, but even with a private jet, it will take at least three hours for him to get here.”
As the words fell, Frederick’s expression grew darker, and he shed his carefree demeanor.
The slightly heavy voice sounded again, “Everybody, leave. Alexander, stay.”
The room soon quieted. Coincidentally, the weak breathing of the man on the bed could be heard.
“What exactly happened?”
Frederick’s current appearance was hard to associate with his usual self. If observed closely, there was a resemblance to Adrian.
Alexander had concealed some details in his previous account due to the presence of others. But now, Frederick alone could be fully trusted.
“Was it Sienna?”
Before Alexander could speak, Frederick interjected again, his tone resolute.
Seeing that Frederick didn’t deny it, Alexander seemed to understand the whole story in an instant.
“I knew this brat would get retribution. See, it came so quickly.”
“They say roses have thorns and are not to be messed with.”
Frederick shook his head, stood and walked to the bedside. “This brat’s life is hard. He won’t die.”
“Mr. Law… What should we do now?”
Alexander sighed silently. Frederick, who had just been serious, suddenly changed his tone.
Adrian’s life couldn’t be joked with. Who knew what would happen with any mishap?
The upheaval in Imperial City would be unimaginable, shaking the entire upper echelons of society.
Frederick gazed at Adrian. Adrian’s brows furrowed, sweat forming on his forehead. Adrian appeared to be in great pain. Frederick shook his head. “What else can we do? Once Jason arrives,
we’ll do everything we can to save him.”
“But it’s best not to let anyone in Imperial City know about calling Jason.”
Frederick thought, then restrained his tone, speaking seriously.
Jason Nix was a renowned medical prodigy in all of Chrysalia, directly affiliated with the Olson
family in Imperial City.
Normally, people wouldn’t dare to disturb him unless it was an absolute necessity. However, this
situation was far from ordinary. If those old fellows got wind of Frederick calling Jason back,

Adrian’s injury would surely he discovered as severe. That would only lead to unnecessary fhaos.
Frederick understood men well and knew exactly what his dear friend was most concerned about.
“Oh, most importantly, help Adrian guard his sweetheart.”
Frederick smirked mischievously, unable to suppress his amusement. He shook his head.
Alexander was momentarily lost for words, but then he suddenly realized his own negligence. How could he have forgotten about Mrs. Olson?
“Mr. Law… Are you certain that Mr. Olson is truly alright? His injury is severe, and his condition is
not favorable. We…” Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
In contrast to Frederick’s carefree demeanor, Alexander seemed increasingly restless.
But little did Alexander expect Frederick’s next words, which were even more preposterous. “If I were Sienna, I guarantee Adrian wouldn’t survive the night.”
“Let him suffer. You should be grateful that his injury’s so severe. Adrian brought this on himself.”
A heavy silence settled in the room..
