NovelFinishChapter 285:
Despite his frustration, RK drove straight to the hospital without stopping.
After Adrian’s cast was removed, he felt as if he had been reborn.
“Oh yeah, I'm back!” he cheered, moving his leg with newfound freedom.
Stella didn’t waste any tand began thinking about how to help Adrian start walking again. She knew she
couldn’t always be around, so when RK arrived, she left the task to him. After all, he owned the company—no
one would fire him or deduct his salary.
“Hey, Bad Uncle, are you back from being a child bride?” Adrian asked excitedly.
“A child bride? What child bride?” RK was puzzled.
“Oh, Darling said you were sold to be a child bride. | wanted to ask, how are you doing as one? Are you used to
it? Did the rich man make things difficult for you?” Adrian's innocent questions made RK realize what Stella had
been telling Adrian in his absence. That shameless woman! He felt an urge to teach her a lesson.
With a mischievous grin, RK responded, “What a coincidence. Lettell you, there was another child bride with
the snas Darling. It was Stella!”

“Really? Someone with the snas Darling?” Adrian's eyes lit up with curiosity.
“Of course. | wouldn't lie to you. That Stella was so pitiful. Every day, she was beaten and scolded by her mother-
in-law, had to do all the housework, cook, clean, and her husband took concubines behind her back. She cried in
her room every day, begging me, ‘Rene, save me. | can’t live anymore!"”
Stella rolled her eyes, feeling that RK had truly reached a new level of shamelessness.
“Really? Did you save her, Bad Uncle?” Adrian was eager to hear the rest of the story.
“I wanted to save her, but she didn’t appreciate it. She said she couldn't leave because she had no home, and
even if her husband didn’t want her, she couldn't leave.”

“Well, that’s what she deserves! If she allowed herself to be bullied like that and didn’t stand up for herself, she
deserved to suffer,” Stella interjected, clearly annoyed.
“What do you know? It’s called loyalty—standing by him from beginning to end,” RK said, amused.
“Bullshit. If someone is being bullied and endures it silently, they're a fool! If that were me, I'd kill my husband
and live my life freely. Women nowadays have their own place in the world. | don’t believe for a second that she
couldn't survive without him,” Stella shot back passionately.
RK grinned, feeling victorious as he saw he had successfully touched a nerve.
“Well, in ancient times, a woman's virtues were emphasized. | think modern women are too impulsive. They
should listen to their husbands.”
“She shouldn't just listen to her husband! Marriage is a partnership, and both should discuss things. Blind
obedience is an insult to women. Honestly, it's better not to marry at all. Living alone is so liberating,” Stella
countered, her voice full of conviction.
“And what if she has a child? What should she do then? What if the child needs a father? What if she can’t handle
it all alone?” RK’s questions left Stella momentarily speechless. Even Adrian, who didn’t fully understand the
argument, could tell that RK had the upper hand in this round.
“I think that if the man fathered a child with her, he should never abandon them. After all, the child is innocent.
It's a life,” RK said, looking at Stella with intensity.
“The child may be innocent, but if the father has already admitted his mistakes, shouldn't the woman forgive
him? The child needs a father. She can’t just break up the family and run away forever,” RK continued, his voice
firm.
“No, she should leave. If she disappears completely, her hateful husband will never find her again,” Stella

Adrian, feeling utterly confused by their heated exchange, decided to intervene.
“Ouch... my legs hurt so much,” Adrian whimpered, grabbing his leg.
“What's wrong, Adrian? Are you okay?” Stella’s attention shifted instantly, her tone filled with concern.
“Are you alright, Adrian? Does it still hurt?” RK asked, kneeling beside him.
Adrian smiled sheepishly. “Oh, Ill be fine if you both stop arguing.”
RK and Stella quickly realized Adrian was faking it to stop their bickering. They both exchanged a glance and
couldn't help but laugh a little.
“Alright, Adrian. Let's get you up and walk around a bit,” Stella said, helping him out of bed. RK immediately
moved to support Adrian from the other side.
Adrian walked slowly, like a child learning to walk for the first time, with both of his “parents” guiding him along.
Despite the effort, Adrian was happy, and it showed. After a while, the tsat together on the sofa to rest, tired
but content.
Adrian secretly glanced at Stella and RK, feeling as if they were a family. For the first tin a long while, he
didn’t feel like he was missing his father. He smiled to himself, enjoying this rare moment of togetherness. It was
a wonderful feeling, and Adrian couldn't help but hope there would be more moments like this in the future.
