Chapter 238 - Family Safety

" How is Kathie? " Steven inquired.

" Hope she will be fine soon? " Adrian answered, waiting for the doctor to come out.

A few minutes later, the doctor came out and informed him, " Nothing serious. The cut was deep, she had three stitches for the cut. But take care of her right hand, she should not stress that hand for a few days…." 

" Okay…. Thank you" Adrian said. Just in time, his mobile rang. Instantly he attended the call.

" Just... It is only the beginning. Your wife will be in my bed very soon. Remember I will make your wife come to me… " he said and disconnected the call. Adrian fisted his palms and punched the wall beside him in anger. He wanted to strangle Grayson's neck and kill him with his bare hands.

" What happened! Any problem in the company! " Steven asked him but he doesn't want to repeat what Grayson said to him. He looked at him and lied, " Nothing serious, I will handle it…"

" Let's go to meet Kathie. She is in the next room…" Steven informed him.

They both went to check Katherine. When he entered inside, She was not in a completely conscious state on her side. His eyes become wet looking at her position. Slowly he placed his palms on her forehead. She opened her eyelids sensing his touch and stared at him.

" Stupid...don't you use your mind " he yelled, holding her hand. Steven who stood beside him was startled by the sudden change in Adrian's behaviour.

" Adrian...I know you are upset but please calm down…" Steven stopped him. Adrian immediately walked out of the room with a serious face. Kathie's eyes were on Adrian's leaving figure on the other side, drops of water flowing from her eyes.

" I would have died better not to see all these things. I think until I am alive I will not live in peace…" she thought in her mind while looking at the door through which Adrian excited.

" I will send Ruby. Take some rest…" Steven said. He doesn't understand how to console her. She didn't respond to him. Steven went out and looked at Adrian who was standing outside the room.

" Adrian...you had not been speaking with her rudely. She was already injured. Can't you see how much she loves you? " Steven asked him.

" What should I do? Let her do whatever she wants? Is it a solution to the problem? This woman hurt herself to save me? Can't she inform me about their attack! A few years back, she left me and now also repeating the same…" Adrian said in frustration.

Steven sighed as he understood what Adrian was trying to say. " I think...we have to start by this evening…" Steven suggested. Adrian turned back and asked, " Still you want to help us! " 

" This is not a business to analyse profit and loss, Mr Wilson. I and Ruby will be there for you and Katherine. Trust me, I won't back off from my words.." Steven said.

" Are you sure about it? " Adrian asked to confirm once again. 

" Of course…" Steven replied with an assuring smile. Then Steven made a call to Ruby and informed her that Katherine is safe. He informed her to get ready for the journey.

….

After a while, everyone came to Katherine's room to visit her but Adrian stayed outside. He was so furious at her to risk her life. 

" Ad… " Maria called her son who was standing outside. Adrian saw his mom and asked, " What? " 

" I don't know what will be written in the future but I am scared of what is going on now," she said, looking at him emotionally.

" Mom...please...tell me, what do you want to tell me? " Adrian said impatiently. " I don't want to lose you…" saying she hugged him. 

" Mom...I too decided, what should I do now? " Adrian replied. With his stern voice, Maria released him and stared at his son's face. She knew about his son's attitude.

" What will you do now? " she asked anxiously, holding his hand. Without answering her question, Adrian said, " We are leaving for Steven's country in one hour. I already informed the maids to pack our luggage " 

" Thank God, I thought you would go and fight with that man. But this time, you made a wise decision, " his mother replied as she felt so relaxed.

" Yes, mom. I don't want to fight with Grayson because still, I am not a single person, I have a family. My priority is to protect my family, " he replied. Steven who stood beside him heard their conversation quietly. He wondered how Adrian could simply ignore Grayson matter even after knowing his deeds.

" Adrian….everything is ready," Steven said. Adrian nodded and went to Emily who was talking with Ruby. 

" As you know my situation, I need your help," he asked Ruby. " What can I do for you? " Ruby questioned him back, looking at him sceptically.

" I will tell you once we reach Steven's place " He replied. " Sure….I will help you…" she promised him.

After one hour, Steven informed everyone to start as the security was ready. As per the doctor's advice, Little Sam was taken into the ambulance due to his health issues. 

" I will come with Sam in the ambulance. I don't want to risk his life, " Adrian said Steven in a stern voice While they were going to the private aviation ramp to board the private jet plane. Katherine looked at him with scary eyes and said to Adrian " I too want to come with you…"

He ignored her words and got in the ambulance along with Sam at the hospital. Steven looked at Kathie and said, " Don't worry, our guards are with them. Nothing will happen to them…"

" Still that woman entered the hospital and tried to harm Ruby. Isn't it? " Katherine questioned him. Steven lowered his eyes and nodded his head.

" But this time, I arranged more guards for security. Don't panic…" Steven tried to make him trust but her heart was racing fast with fear.. She prayed to God for the safety of Adrian and Sam.
