Chapter 373: Adrian Lancaster Is Also Heartbroken
But at this moment, Eliza Hayes, due to the overwhelming shock, was understandably disoriented for a while.
So Nanny Warren chose not to persuade her to calm down, just stood silently not far away with an ice pack, keeping her company.
Nanny Warren understood the principle of not advising others without walking their path because she knew all the truths.
Everything that happened today was bound to happen sooner or later, it just happened earlier than expected.
Eliza Hayes didn’t really go crazy; she just couldn’t handle the stimulus and her emotions were a bit out of control.
Compared to anger, her heart was filled with more panic and fear.
At this moment, Adrian Lancaster had already brought Faye Turner home, and he didn’t go to the company.
In the spacious master bedroom of the villa, the carpet was plush, the lighting was warm and yellow, and the curtain’s veil gently fluttered with the breeze.
The room was quiet and cozy.
Faye Turner sat in a large and soft sofa chair by the window, Adrian Lancaster half-squatted in front of her, holding her hand and staring at the knuckles, lovingly stroking them.
Faye Turner looked at his attractive head shape and his shiny black hair, and she too was silent, just as silent as on the way home.
Adrian Lancaster raised his eyes to look at her, his deep eyes filled with empathy.
On the way home, including in the hospital room, Adrian Lancaster hadn’t reported to her what he did at the old house.
He didn’t bring it up, so she sensibly didn’t ask.
Their gazes met...
Adrian Lancaster saw a mist rise in her eyes, which made him feel even more concerned.
He reached out to tuck a lock of her hair back behind her ear, "I’m sorry, Faye, I didn’t protect you well."
Faye Turner understood his feelings at the moment and softly comforted, "This isn’t your fault."
He must have gone to the old house to hold his mother accountable, they probably had a big argument, even talked about severing their mother-son relationship.
Because from the depths of his eyes, she saw a touch of vulnerability and sorrow that she had never seen before.
She gently pulled him up to sit beside her.
Faye Turner turned sideways and hugged him, gently buried her cheek into his warm chest.
Two lonely hearts collided, both found warmth.
Adrian Lancaster embraced Faye Turner, recalling the moment he slapped his mother’s face, he too felt deeply pained...
Because for so long, he had always longed to be looked at fondly by his mother, longing for maternal love.
But now...
The little bit of mother-son affection left was severed by him.
"Adrian."
Faye Turner lifted her eyes from his embrace, her nose gently brushing against his, and tenderly asked, "When you went home today, had Grandpa returned?"
Her kindness showed, still worrying that Grandpa might not be able to handle knowing about this.
"He had." Adrian Lancaster didn’t give her too many details, he held her face, "Faye, from now on, no one will dare bully you."
"What about you and your mom..."
"It’s completely over." He didn’t hide it, "I forcibly took my father away, placed him in my other property, once you’re rested, I’ll take you there to see him."
Faye Turner’s eyes were filled with astonishment!
He continued, "It’s tightly guarded there, I arranged some bodyguards and professional medical personnel, all are trustworthy people."
Forcibly taken away?
Forcibly?
How badly did it go? She dared not ask.
Faye Turner’s heart felt heavy...
But since they had taken this step, she accepted it.
Looking at his eyes with sincerity, "Adrian, thank you for your trust, I will do my best."
"Faye, don’t feel pressured." To ease her pressure, Adrian Lancaster spoke softly, "It’s normal not to be able to cure him because my father’s situation... has been this way for nearly 20 years."
