Adam would have looked into Lucas' activities even if Melinda had not asked him. He was curious about what Lucas was doing in the hospital as well.
However, he was surprised that Melinda-who never cared about other people's affairs-would be curious about Lucas.
"Melinda, why do you want to look into him?"
Melinda instinctively looked around her to make sure no one was there before answering in a small voice, "The Riveras were Emily's ex-husband's family, so I'm guessing that young man just now is her eldest son."
Adam's eyes widened in surprise. He never liked Emily as she would often stop Melinda from making up with him. Thus, he was not interested in any of Emily's affairs. He would roll his eyes or turn his nose up whenever he saw her.
Although Melinda had told him some stuff about Emily, he still did not know about the specifics of Emily's past. It never crossed his mind that she was once Maxwell's wife.
Adam asked his men to look into Lucas' purpose for going to the hospital according to Melinda's request. He gave her an update after finding out Lucas had gone there to visit his father.
Melinda's expression became even more complicated when she heard that. 'That means Emily's ex-husband is here too. What a coincidence it is for him to be injured and staying at the same hospital as she is Maybe they really are fated to be together.'
"You don't have to go in with me. Lilin and I can take care of Emily," said Melinda to Adam once they reached Emily's ward. She wanted him to leave as she was worried he would say something to hurt her bes friend again.
Adam did not want to go in either. After all, he found it awkward to be there since Emily was not of any significance to him.
"Okay. I'll leave some of my men with you. Call me if you need anything. Don't go anywhere without telling me!"
Melinda nodded. "Okay."
Adam was about to leave when Lilin tugged at his clothes.
He turned and asked, "What's the matter, Lilin? You don't want Daddy to go? Do you want to come home with Daddy, then?"
Lilin shook her head. "Daddy, I have something I need your help with."
Even though Adam favored Sophia out of guilt, he was quite fond of his little daughter as well. He bent down and said, "Sure thing, sweetheart. What is it?" Lilin whispered something into this ear.
Hearing what she said, Adam straightened up and said, "Okay, no problem. Stay here with your mommy. Be a good girl, and don't wander off by yourself, okay?" "Tsk! When have I ever wandered off by myself?" asked Lilin with a pout.
Adam patted her head and left.
Melinda watched Adam go into the elevator before she looked down at her daughter and asked, "What did you say to your daddy?"
Lilin spread out her hands. "Nothing. I asked him to teach the Carews a lesson for injuring Miss Emily."
Melinda shook her head helplessly and led Lilin to Emily's ward.

Melinda noticed that Emily was staring at the highest building with the sign 'Rivera Group' on it.
"Are you thinking about your past, Emily?" asked Melinda.
