Chapter 1347
After leaving the hospital, Jaidyn and Maurice went separately.
It was quiet inside the observation room.
Adrian had entered this room twice within five minutes. Different from the first time, now Aleigha had some sense.
When he spoke to her, tears flowed down her face.
Later, Adrian went to see the baby.
The early-born, thin, small and red little thing.
Adrian stood outside the room in a daze, seeing the baby through the glass.
The little girl closed her eyes and moved from time to time. Because of premature birth, she seemed smaller than the other babies.
Although she was still small, Adrian vaguely felt that she looked like him.
At night, Adrian was smoking in the corridor. A nurse came and told him that Aleigha had woken up.
She was confirmed safe. After having a series of inspection, she had been sent to the ICU.
When Adrian came in, her eyes were open. But the breathing machine prevented her from speaking.
"Aleigha!"
Adrian entered the room and sat beside her bed, gently holding her hand.
Aleigha looked at Adrian, her eyes were moistured. She opened her mouth but couldn't speak a word. "Little Aleigha, have a good rest."
Aleigha's eyebrows slightly twisted, and she slowly glanced at her body.
Knowing her mind, Adrian hurriedly said, "Don't worry, our baby is safe. It's a girl, she looks like me."
As soon as he finished speaking, Aleigha frowned even more.
"You... she looks like you!!"
Adrian was stunned for a moment, but soon he laughed.
Seeing he smiled, Aleigha's eyebrows instantly relaxed, and then she narrowed her eyes.
Maurice took Tanner to his manor.
This was an old manor with no people living around. Actually, when Maurice came here for the first time, there were two villages nearby. Maurice hated to live with the noise, and he spent
tremendous money to relocate all villagers to the new residence built on the third ring road of A City.
It was said that the residence was all equipped with furniture and appliances.
Being rich to be willful, Maurice was always No.1.
The reason why he took Tanner here was this place was quiet, and they won't be disturbed.
Tanner was being put in a sack and thrown out of the car.
Maurice won't be merciful to him.
In A City, the rich person that Maurice respected was Adrian only.
Sitting on a wooden chair in the yard, Maurice stared at Tanner.
Someone removed the sack, only then did Tanner see the environment around.
At the moment, nothing left in his heart but fear.
"Tell me, do you want it to be simple or complicated? Or do you have any other special hobbies?
I'm in a good mood today, and I'll help you."
Although being restricted by the chairman these years, Maurice's temper did change a little.
Nothing would completely change him, especially as he established his own business, his nature exposed more.
Before coming to A city, Tanner had learned about Maurice.
He was cruel and no one he dared not to fix.
"If you spare me, I am fully belonging to you."
Tanner was trying hard to save himself.
"Do you think I'm an idiot? Are you still fooling me?"
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Tanners' face. "I just want to live."
"I hate those who shamelessly committed murders in the name of their families or friends. They killed people, but at last they asked for forgiveness!
You're a scum!
No, I won't insult scum, you're more disgusted than a scum.
Aleigha was pregnant, but you dared to kill her! You should die, and you should die a hundred times!"
Maurice stood up and threw the things at hand toward Tanner with rage.
"Aleigha is a woman. Why don't you hurt Adrian? Because you don't dare, because you are a coward!
Killing for saving your sister?! What a joke! You did it only for yourself! I'm telling you, I'm going to make you suffer.
If you' re dead, it would be too comfortable for you."
Tanner lowered his head and didn't say a word. He had become hopeless.
He thought Maurice would take a break after cursing and throwing things for a while, even if just stop and drink some water.
But he didn't stop, instead, he asked people to bring in some tools.
Looking at those tools, even as an experienced killer, Tanner was shocked.
They were torture tools.
"Tie him up to that pillar!"
Tanner was lifted up, then being firmly tied to a wooden pillar.
"Maurice, can we negotiate? I have a lot of things that you don't know about. I can tell you everything. I beg you to keep me alive." Tanner said, sounded very humble. No matter how successful he was these years, at this time, he couldn't do nothing but beg.
He never suffered too much. Because he was clever.
While trapped in Maurice's manor, all his wise wouldn't work.
Maurice was a madman, who accepted no begging.
"Why should I keep your life? Why should I keep the trash alive like you?!
I thought you were clever, but you followed an old woman's order!
Shame on you!"
Tanner was regretful too.
If he refused Aubrianna at the beginning, there wouldn't be such a mess.
Coming out of the hospital, Jaidyn called his father, still no news from his mother.
Next, he came to his company and sent a large number of people searching for his mother.
Later, he went to the biggest shopping mall in A City to buy some baby's clothes and supplies, then he returned to the hospital.
When he arrived at the hospital, he was informed that Aleigha had woke up and was transferred to ICU.
ICU ruled that Adrian could only visit Aleigha shortly every day. When he finished visiting just now, he saw Jaidyn walking over with shopping bags. Seeing him, Adrian frowned.
"These are for the baby. I will give you an explanation."
Adrian lowered his head and took out a box of cigarettes. He grabbed one and lit it. He took a deep breath and slowly exhaled the smoke.
"I won't force you to do that. After all, she is your mother. But I won't let this go easily."
"Adrian, this is my mother's fault. I apologize to you on her behalf."
"It's not your fault, you don't have to apologize. I won't forgive your mother even if she apologizes to me personally.
I'll double the revenge for what Aleigha had suffered. Keep this in your mind, don't blame me for not notifying you in advance." Adrain said. Jaidyn gazed at Adrian but said nothing. At this moment, nothing was worth saying.
Adrian had been restrained his expression yet. If they were not friends, Jaidyn's mother might have been searched out by Adrian's army.
"I'll give her one month, I'll either kill her or let her do it herself.
Jaidyn, even if our friendship broke, I will not spare your mother."
