Chapter 1470
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
Francine ignored the bodyguard and carried Adie as she walked toward Stefanâs ward, but she stopped when she reached the door, looking hesitant.
âWhatâs wrong, Grandma?â Adie stared at Francine in confusion.
âWell⦠your daddyâs just gone through surgery, and itâs been only a few days since heâs woken up.
Iâm worried that your sudden appearance might trigger himâ¦â Francineâs worry wasnât groundless-
although Stefanâs brain recovery surgery was successful, he was different after waking up. He just stared into the distance blankly, refusing to have contact with others. Francine didnât know if Stefan had regained his memories or not, and she was worried that seeing Adie might trigger him.
âYour son isnât weak, Grandma, and Iâm not a monster. Why would I trigger him? If he was really that useless, I wouldnât have come to him for help,â Adie said seriously. Although he felt that Stefan was a scumbag, he had to admit that his father was strong. If he wasnât, Renee wouldnât have loved him so deeply. It would be a failure on Stefanâs part if he couldnât even protect his woman despite him being the person Renee loved the most.
âUmm, wellâ¦â Francine didnât know how to argue with that, and felt that Adie was right. Her son was the mighty president of Hunt Enterprise, and he wasnât that weak.
However, before she could say anything, Stefanâs voice came from the ward. âWhoâs outside?â
âLet me have a look, Mr. Hunt.â Elijah soon came out of the ward, and his eyes brightened when he saw Adie. âMadam, when did Adie come?â 1 âHe came here alone just now. Isnât it miraculous?â Francine looked into the ward and asked Elijah hesitantly, âHowâs my son?â
âHeâs still down and doesnât want to talk much.â Sighing, Elijah looked at Adie hopefully. âAdie came just in time- maybe Mr. Hunt will be willing to talk once he sees Adie.â
âIâm afraid heâll have mood swings. I donât want to overwork his brain,â Francine said worriedly, not wanting to take any risks.
âNo, itâs not that bad. Mr. Hunt isnât that weak, and Dr. Wagner didnât mention any major side effects,â Elijah protested, echoing what Adie had said earlier. âCome on, Adie-let me take you to your daddy. Iâm sure heâll be very happy to see you.â Elijah waved at Adie eagerly.
However, Adie turned away coldly. âHmph, heâs not my daddy. We just share similar genes!â After that, he brushed past Francine and Elijah and walked into Stefanâs ward.
At first, Francine wanted to follow Adie, but Elijah stopped her. âWhy donât we let them have some alone time, Madam? Maybe itâll be good forthem.â
