Reborn: The Tyrant's Obsession-Chapter 91: Baby, can you read my mind?

Kings’ Main Mansion.

The atmosphere got a little chaotic the moment Old Madam King laid her eyes on Adrian and noticed the bandages wrapped around his palm.

"What happened to your palm?" The old lady’s dignified face betrayed some sadness as she held the man’s hand.

’’Just a scratch,’’ Adrian calmly said.

The old lady turned to Ji Yan.

In Adrian’s presence, Ji Yan did not dare to run his mouth off so he nodded meekly.

The old madam finally heaved a sigh of relief and ordered the servants to serve the dinner.

"I asked the butler to ask you over for lunch,’’ Old Madam King sat on the head chair of the dining table, ’’Your grandpa went to his friend’s place and this old lady was all by herself. Here, Little Ian... I asked them to prepare all your favorite dishes...’’

The old lady kept piling food on Adrian’s plate, her eyes glittering.

’’Eat more, Little Ian. I haven’t seen you for a few days and you have lost weight again...’’ Old Madam King watched Adrian eat, her heartache apparent.

She then turned to Ji Yan, ’’He looks like he hasn’t slept or eaten anything in days... And his appetite doesn’t seem to have gotten any better. Why haven’t you told me anything about it?"

Ji Yan smiled bitterly.

At this moment, there were sounds of footsteps.

’’It seems like I am an unwanted guest here tonight,’’ Ronan walked to the dining table.

Old Madam King looked up at him, ’’How can that be? Didn’t I ask the butler to invite you over as well?" she pointed her chin to the chair near her, ’’Sit.’’

Ronan got goosebumps by the old lady’s sharp gaze.

"Why don’t you tell me what’s the matter with Little Ian’s health?"

To the Old Madam’s question, Ronan quietly looked at Adrian.

"Why are you looking at him?"

Ronan wanted to say ’Why don’t you ask your grandson and let him tell you how he quenches his thirst with poison’ but suddenly Adrian looked up.

And Ronan choked on the words in his heart.

In the end, he changed the topic, ’’Cough... Where is the Little third? I don’t see Kade anywhere?"

Old Madam’s eyes narrowed but eventually, she did not expose Ronan. Sighing, she said, ’’He has locked himself in his room and he is even having his meals there.’’

Now this caused everyone around the dining table to be alert. Except for Adrian who continued eating like it was none of his business.

’’What? Why?" Ronan was speechless. Kade was a tough nut to crack. Even in his current circumstances, nothing could really make him lock himself up.

"The servants who went to serve his meals reported that he was studying."

After dinner, Old Madam King dragged Ronan off to a corner along with Ji Yan.

"You couldn’t speak of things in front of him. Tell me honestly now, how is his health these days?" As she spoke, the old lady looked in the direction of the couch where Adrian was.

The man was leaning back against the couch, with his eyes closed.

"That...’’ Ronan hesitated.

After all, Adrian’s condition was special.

And the Old Madam’s affection for her grandson knew no bounds.

Ronan did not know how much to reveal without hampering the old lady’s health or triggering her concerns.

’Smack’

Seeing through his concerns, the old lady smacked Ronan’s back.

Ronan flinched. That delicate-looking slap nearly crushed his back.

’’Little Ro, I am the matriarch of this family. You should know I won’t collapse just by hearing some news. Quick, tell me everything honestly.’’

Ronan sighed, ’’In fact, his condition has improved recently.’’

Old Madam’s eyes glimmered, ’’Really?"

Ronan nodded. "But I don’t know if it is a good thing or a bad thing.’’

"Why would it be a bad thing?" The old lady frowned, visibly confused as she looked at Ronan and Ji Yan.

Ronan sighed. Knowing that there was no way to dodge this topic, he decided to come clean, ’’Previously, Ace’s health went in a linear trajectory. Never too good but it was rarely too bad.’’

Old Madam got a little impatient, ’’What about now?"

’’Right now, his health is functioning in extremes. There are times when his health is way too good, his sleeping disorders don’t affect him. He sleeps well and eats well, completely like a normal person,’’ Ronan sighed, ’’On the contrary, when his health takes a dip, will be extremely bad, not just a little concerning.’’

Old Madam looked at her grandson, worry etched between her brows.

’Ding’

Adrian took out his new phone and suddenly his lips twitched into a smile.

It lasted for a split second but the old lady’s keen eyes had already caught onto that.

Unaware of the eyes on him, Adrian glanced at his phone

Ella had responded to the three red hearts he had sent with a total of 56 red heart emojis.

A twinkle flickered in his eyes and his fingers hovered above the screen before he hit the ’sent’ message.

Adrian: Not asleep.

Ella: Nah! I dozed off earlier but was stirred awake not long ago.

Adrian: Nightmares?

As soon as Adrian sent the text, the ’typing’ below her name disappeared.

His gaze dimmed.

In the next moment, he received a text from Ella: Baby, can you read my mind?

Adrian: If I say yes, would you be scared?

Ella: Nope~ If you say yes, I would wonder if you could see how much my heart aches when you are not around. How much I miss you when you are far~ *infinite kisses*

Mini theatre~

Grandma King: My grandson is so hardworking... Look at him being so busy on his phone~

Meanwhile grandson: *flirting with his woman in a composed manner*

Meanwhile grandson’s woman: Hmm, it is too peaceful around him? Let me drop some texts to provoke him *evil laughter*

Meanwhile, the author: Give me a break, y’all. Stop being constantly up to something! *massages head and stomps away*
