Beg on Your Knees (2)

"I'm glad I came with you today, Addie," Hunter said as they drove to Zhao Estate. "You have no idea how worried Mom and I were about you yesterday."

It was one afternoon, and they hadn't had lunch yet. Their mother was waiting anxiously for their return. Adrienne glanced at Hunter with a grateful smile on her face. 

"I really appreciate you being there for me," she admitted, her voice filled with sincerity. 

"Mom was so relieved when I told her you were coming along." The thought of their worried mother waiting at home only made Adrienne determined to see the Jiang family's fate end. She didn't want to give them any chance to hurt their mother again.

Their grandmother, who had a friendly smile, and their mother, still bound in a wheelchair, welcomed them to the Zhao estate. Adrienne immediately walked toward her mother and kissed her cheek. Rosemary returned the gesture and refused to let go of her daughter's hand.
