To be honest, it made sense.


    After Adrian exined, Ruby raised her hand and found that hitting his face was indeed much easier than hitting his legs.


    When Adrian was sitting on the chair earlier, she had to strain on her tiptoes to reach his legs.


    But now that Adrian voluntarily lowered his head, Ruby found it much simpler.


    It doesn''t take much effort to p his face.


    But... Adrian''s gaze from up close looked very dark, and his expression was sharp, slightly intimidating. Ruby felt a bit hesitant when faced with this face.


    She timidly nced at Adrian and took a step back.


    Adrian noticed her subtle movement.


    "What''s wrong?"


    Ruby pouted, "What if you retaliate?"


    NightA is so tall, withrge hands. If he were to p her, she would surely be pped to death.


    The more Ruby thought about it, the scarier it seemed. So, she turned around and ran straight towards her brother.


    Adrian was prepared to let his daughter p him, but instead, she turned and ran away.


    While he felt relieved, he also felt a strange sense of slight disappointment, even beginning to wonder what it would feel like to be pped by his daughter?


    At just the thought of it, Adrian thought the experience would probably be quite good.


    But then he realized how odd this thought was. Who likes getting pped?


    He''s not into masochism or anything.


    With this in mind, Adrian cleared his cluttered thoughts and focused on the emergency room.


    He hoped she would be safe and sound.


    As long as she was safe and sound, he could give up everything.


    After Ruby ran to her brother''s side, Dn took care of her like an adult, pulling her to sit on a chair next to him and wiping away her tears.


    Then he couldn''t help but nce in Adrian''s direction. Seeing him sitting there with his eyes lowered, his tall figure appearing infinitely lonely, Dn pursed his lips. "Ruby, we should stay away from him in the future."


    Ruby, who used to want NightA as her father, hadpletely changed her mind. Upon hearing Dn''s words, she vigorously nodded.


    "Okay, I agree with you!"


    Dn breathed a sigh of relief when she finally stopped arguing and agreed.


    This way, Mommy should be at ease, right?


    Mommy always seemed helpless when it came to Ruby.


    Thinking about Mommy, Dn was filled with worry.


    After an unknown amount of time had passed, another figure appeared at the entrance to the emergency room.


    Adrian nced up and saw John.


    When Adrian saw John, his brows immediately furrowed.


    "What are you doing here?"


    John''s gaze passed through him andnded on the two little ones not far away.


    After meeting his gaze, the two little ones, having recognized him as part of the group from earlier, looked at him with resentment. Suddenly, John realized with a chuckle.


    He didn''t expect these two little ones to hold a grudge against him.


    He nced at Adrian and asked, "When did you figure it out?"


    However, Adrian coldly stared at him.


    "What does it have to do with you?"


    Hearing this, John shrugged, acting indifferent. "Can''t I be concerned about you?"


    "I don''t have time to discuss this with you now."


    Eva was still in the emergency room.


    With all that just happened, the two children started to harbor a dislike for him, undoing all the effort he had put in for days. Adrian couldn''t bear it. Most importantly, his only thought now was that Eva must recover with no issues, or else he wouldn''t let Jason get away with this so easily.


    John could also sense the suppressed displeasure in his words, feeling somewhat helpless.


    "To be honest, I didn''t expect things to escte like this tonight, but there''s nothing we can do about that now, it''s in the past. How is Eva doing?" Adrian pressed his lips together and ignored him, seemingly not intending to engage with him any further.


    Seeing this, John didn''t say anything more and quietly sat in a chair.


    However, after a while, Adrian suddenly said to him, "Don''t stay here."


    John asked, "Can''t I stay here even if I don''t speak?"


    "No."


    John replied, "Is it really necessary to be so unamodating?"


    "I am unamodating. So what?"


    So what? What else could he do?


    But John didn''t leave and just sat there. After a while, Adrian seemed to be provoked by something as he turned his head, fixing his displeased pitch-ck eyes on him. "John, don''t provoke me, I''m warning you."


    If it weren''t for the presence of the two children, Adrian would have already grabbed his cor and dragged him elsewhere. How could he let him stay here?


    "Is that so? Then why don''t you give it a try?"


    Adrian''s gaze suddenly became sharp and his voice turned bitterly cold.


    "You think I won''t?"


    Just then, the lights in the emergency room suddenly went off, and the door made some noise.


    Adrian, who was originally domineering and had a gloomy expression, instantly changed his face upon hearing themotion. He then stood up and walked towards the entrance of the emergency room. Ruby and Dn, who were huddling together, also stood up and ran towards it with their little legs.


    Upon seeing this, John followed suit.


    "What happened?"


    Adrian''s voice softened a bitpared to before, but his deliberately suppressed tone added a touch of hoarseness to the quiet corridor.


    The doctor nced at the group and then asked, "Who is Eva''s family member?"


    Adrian replied heavily, "I am."


    "Well, the patient suffered a minor head injury, but for now, it seems to pose no significant harm. We''ll need to conduct further examinations for a more urate assessment." Further examinations?


    Upon hearing this, Adrian''s gaze turned icy, almost as if he wanted to crush Jason''s name between his teeth.


    "How is she doing now?"


    "The patient''s condition is currently stable, but since it''s a head injury, it''s advisable to wait for further observations before confirming."


    Adrian''s face turned extremely grave. The implication was that they would need to observe for a few more days, and if those days of observation were safe, then she would naturally be safe. But if not... Adrian almost couldn''t dare to think about the other oue.


    Afterward, Eva was transferred from the emergency room to the observation ward, and the two little ones stayed in the ward with her.


    In the room, the nurse came to administer her IV, then she left. Adrian stood by the bedside, watching this scene with a dark expression.


    "I hate you! Get out!" Ruby suddenly rushed over and pushed Adrian towards the exit of the ward. Soon, Adrian was pushed out of the room, and Dn closed the door.


    Nearby, John saw this and couldn''t help but walk over, expressing helplessness. "Can they handle being alone in there? What if something happens?"


    In fact, considering the strength of a little girl, Ruby wouldn''t be able to push Adrian if he stood still. But he still followed her force and left the ward.
