CHAPTER 876: CHAPTER 876: LOVESICKNESS BECOMES AN ILLNESS

Adrian Lancaster stopped in his tracks, slowly turning his gaze to meet his mother-in-law’s eyes. "Mom, take care of yourself."

"Adrian." The middle-aged woman stepped forward a few paces, tearfully advising, "No matter what, you must take care of your health. Joy has lost her mother; she can’t lose her father too, do you understand? Even for the child’s sake, you need to hold yourself together."

Seeing his sadness and pain, she feared he might not be able to handle it... since Adrian Lancaster is a man of deep emotions, always treating Faye as if she were his own life.

To prevent the elders from worrying, Adrian Lancaster slowly composed himself, a slight smile tugging at his lips. "Please rest assured, I will be fine. I will get to the bottom of this and make everyone who hurt Faye pay a heavy price."

Until this matter is resolved, nothing must happen to him.

After Adrian Lancaster left, Milo Turner stayed by his mother’s side constantly, waiting together for news of his sister, praying for her safety.

Chloe Gable criticized him harshly, reminding him of the time his brother-in-law spent tutoring him, accusing him of being ungrateful and questioning how he, with so much education, could treat his brother-in-law this way.

He gradually realized his mistakes... recalling how his brother-in-law bowed to him before leaving made him feel even more guilty.

In truth, Milo Turner is also a kind child; his impulsiveness stems from his young age.

Downstairs, Mr. Kerr opened the car door and saw the man emerging from the stairwell with disheveled clothes, a sight that filled him with heartache. Could it be... that he was blamed by the Turner Family?

Did they get physical with him?

Why is his shoulder so rumpled? It seems... even a button on his collar has been torn off.

Mr. Kerr felt a special tenderness. "Young master," he called, stopping his steps, stepping forward to straighten his shirt, then respectfully said, "Please get in the car."

After getting in the car, Adrian Lancaster took a deep breath, every minute and second of waiting for news was an unbearable anxiety for him.

Adrian Lancaster’s condition worsened with each passing day, lovesickness turning into illness, feeling as if his world had collapsed.

Since knowing Faye, he had become accustomed to her presence; she was his whole world.

The past few days, his mind was filled with memories of their time together.

He truly was no longer accustomed to life without Faye Turner; she was his life, his oxygen.

Two days later, without any good news, Adrian Lancaster, overwhelmed by his yearning, finally fell ill.

When he was taken to the hospital by his subordinates, he was in a coma.

Chase Yates and Dustin Shepherd both rushed over, as did Evan Sharp, who had just returned to the country; they were all shocked by the news and hurried to the hospital to care for him.

By evening, Rachel Sherman, who had been waiting at home, finally saw Chase Fletcher’s car. She got up and went out to meet him, anxiously asking, "What did the doctor say?"

"They did a full-body check, nothing major, but his body really can’t endure this anymore." Chase Fletcher was quite worried too, letting out a sigh. "Adrian hasn’t been eating or sleeping well lately, and his overwhelming grief has taken a toll on his body."

Regarding Faye Turner’s disappearance, Rachel Sherman often cried herself to sleep; everyone was in a bad mood, but to avoid causing worry to those they cared about, they all tried their best to restrain their emotions.

Chase Fletcher tried to spend as much time as he could guiding her, even arranging for a psychologist for her.

After all, Rachel was pregnant with twins.

With his beloved grandson fallen ill, Old Master Lancaster was exceedingly anxious. Knowing the reason, he personally went up the mountain to invite the Taoist priest down.

So, the next morning.

When the Taoist priest walked into a hospital room, Adrian Lancaster seemed to have anticipated this. The moment their eyes met, he lay on the hospital bed without surprise.

"How is Mr. Lancaster’s health?" The Taoist priest spoke softly, his tone full of concern.

Adrian Lancaster propped himself up to sit. "Hello, Taoist priest." Seeing him brought a moment of tranquility to his heart.

He was just planning to go up the mountain to find him, but unexpectedly, he came over. It must have been Grandpa who asked him to come, right?

So, the words the Taoist priest spoke today... should be what Grandpa wanted to say, not to be believed.
