Forced to Marry the Sickly Billionaire-Chapter 356 She Won’t Let Me Accompany Her

When Grace Summers was taken away, tears uncontrollably streamed down her face, and she felt utterly despairing.

She even began to envy Serena Summers, who always seemed so lucky, never having to endure so much pain.

Getting lost only to meet a miracle doctor like Victor Bennett, and elder brothers like Edward Selwyn and Vincent Carter.

Being treated as a mere token of joy by her family, yet ending up meeting a handsome and wealthy man of distinguished status like Lucas Shaw.

...

Far away in S city, Serena Summers couldn’t help but sneeze as her nose itched.

Adrian Holt approached her with concern and reached out to feel her forehead, "Did you catch a cold?"

The back of the man’s hand felt cool, providing a comforting touch on her forehead.

Serena Summers shook her head, the baby hairs on her forehead becoming disheveled, "I’m fine, probably someone is just talking about me."

Her health was good.

Still worried, Adrian Holt took a thermometer from the medicine box and handed it to her, "Just take a check."

"I am a doctor, I know my own body," Serena was busy writing a thesis and didn’t expect this person to be so persistent in his interruptions.

Dean Carter specifically instructed her to complete it as soon as possible, otherwise, she would have to wait until the next submission deadline.

If approved, her thesis would be published in the most prestigious international medical journal.

Although she didn’t care about these accolades, preferring practice instead,

the old professors at the medical school treated it as a great honor and insisted she participate.

Helpless, Serena could only try writing it first.

Adrian Holt sat beside her, indicating her to open her mouth, "The healer cannot heal himself, and I’ve checked the relevant information, it’s said that girls are more susceptible these days, don’t take it lightly."

Serena’s fingers paused on the keyboard, her eyes brimming with amusement, "Honey, I didn’t realize you had such a nagging side."

If his previous employees saw this, they would probably be shocked speechless.

Adrian Holt ignored her teasing, with his well-defined fingers gently pinching her incessant small mouth, "Don’t talk now, it will be over soon."

"Hmm..." Serena’s plump lips puckered slightly, looking inexplicably adorable.

Adrian Holt’s lips curved slightly. When the time was up, he withdrew his hand.

Seeing the temperature on the thermometer, Adrian Holt breathed a sigh of relief, "Good, no fever."

He couldn’t remember if he had experienced such a scene before.

Yet at the moment, the mere thought that Serena was bleeding incessantly worried him.

Sometimes, he worried excessively.

He hadn’t felt it before, but now he found memory loss to be quite troubling, having to relearn everything from scratch.

If it were him from two years ago, he would have handled it smoothly.

He sighed inwardly, forcibly suppressing his frustration.

Unaware of his emotional changes, Serena lifted her chin in an "I told you so" manner, "I told you so, but you wouldn’t believe me."

Having said that, she continued to type intently.

Adrian Holt, feeling resigned, did not disturb her any further, walked over to the couch, opened his laptop, and started his own work.

M received his message, and couldn’t resist teasing, "The sun rose from the west today, not accompanying your wife?"

"She doesn’t want me to," Adrian Holt typed and sent these words, feeling unjustly aggrieved inside.

Far away in C country, M couldn’t help but laugh out loud, eventually letting out a deep sigh while standing in front of a floor-to-ceiling window, looking out.

He looked weathered, not knowing what he was thinking about.

Soon, another vibration came from the phone, Adrian Holt sent another message, "What’s been happening there recently?"

"Met two people this morning, our people intended to follow them but ended up losing track."

Adrian Holt fell silent for a while, then asked, "Do you know who they met with?"

M: "But they were taken away, I’m still having someone look into it, for now, I only know they were Corlanders." fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

Adrian Holt: "Continue to keep someone on it, but remember to be careful with your safety."

Whether it was Lucas Shaw or in his memories, the word ’father’ was very foreign to him; he felt fatherly love from this man whose real name he didn’t even know.

So, he has trusted M deeply for the past two years.

For someone who has always been on the edge of a cliff, potentially falling into an abyss at any moment, even a little bit of warmth is enough to make him cling desperately, wanting to hold on tightly.

It was the same with M, and with Serena Summers...

M lowered his eyes, his gaze falling on the last sentence, his eyes slightly moistened.

After a long while, he slowly sent out the word "Okay".

The next morning, Adrian Holt was woken up by the sound of an alarm.

He rubbed his somewhat heavy head and slowly opened his eyes, still a hint of sleepiness in them.

By his side, Serena Summers had gotten up unusually early despite still being too sleepy to open her eyes, but she insisted on crawling out of bed.

"Why are you up so early? It’s still dark outside." Adrian Holt asked with a hoarse voice.

While yawning, Serena Summers shuffled in her slippers to the bedside and grabbed his arm, "Get up quickly, did you forget today is the day Professor Harvey returns to the country?"

"Professor Harvey?" Adrian Holt blanked for a moment, momentarily not remembering who that was.

He stretched out his long arm, pulling Serena Summers back into his embrace, hugging her tightly and burying his face deep into her shoulder, nuzzling her, "Whoever it is, let’s sleep a little more."

M, in order to follow the movements of the organization, handed back all the work into his hands.

He had stayed up all night finishing the work, and only got to sleep about half an hour ago.

It was the same with Serena Summers; she spent the entire night looking through documents and only slept as dawn approached.

Now, she was also too sleepy to keep her eyes open, but still struggled, "Professor Harvey... airport pickup, treating your illness... can’t sleep..."

But with the disparity in strength between men and women, and because she was truly too sleepy, she fell asleep before finishing her sentence.

Liam Shaw got up early in the morning to wash up, and after getting ready, he went downstairs only to find that the young couple had not come out yet.

He sat on the sofa for quite a while, seeing no one come out, he couldn’t help but frown.

"Butler, go check if Lucas and Serena are awake."

"All right, I’ll go right away." The butler had just come in from trimming branches in the garden and immediately went upstairs.

It wasn’t long before he lightly stepped down from upstairs, "Young Master, your brother and the Young Madam are probably still sleeping."

Liam Shaw: "..."

What happened to getting up early?

Everyone’s becoming more and more unreliable.

Liam Shaw helplessly shook his head, glanced at his watch, noticed that Professor Harvey’s flight was about to arrive, and without regarding anything else, grabbed his keys and headed out.

The butler followed and asked, "Young Master, should I still call them?"

"No need, let them sleep a bit longer."
