Chapter 925

Adrian must be delighted, right? Although his family might not welcome her that happily, they were all
polite people. They would most probably not chase her away.

When she passed by a florist, Avery stopped her car by the side of the road. She picked a fresh
bouquet of carnations. After paying, she entered her car with the bouquet in her hands.

She was once again on the road. She needed to go past two traffic lights and go forward for another
two kilometers or so before she would reach the Whites.She was humming a song. It was green all the
way. The traffic was smooth all the way to the Whites.She parked her car outside the Whites’ courtyard.

She got out of the car and saw that the gate was locked. She looked at the shut door of the mansion
too. It seemed like no one was home. She furrowed her brows and fished her phone out. She found
Nathan, Adrian’s father’s contact, and dialed him. She had thought of the worst-case scenario. Perhaps
Nathan had blocked her number. However, the call connected.

“Mr. White. I’m by your house. I see that your doors are shut. Are you all not at home?” Avery inhaled
nervously.

“Miss Tate! I’m sorry! We are out on holiday now. I’m afraid we can’t welcome you in!” Nathan could not
hide the arrogance in his tone.

“If there is nothing else, I’m going to hang up. By the way, my son is doing well. You don’t have to
worry.”

“Hold up!” Avery said sternly, “Adrian has just finished his surgery. He needs to rest! How could you
take him out on a holiday? Even if he wants to go, he can’t! Aren’t you afraid that something might
happen to him on the way?” Nathan harrumphed coldly.



“Miss Tate. I think I have paid you the surgery fees, right? I don’t need you to order me around. It’s rude
of you!”

Then, he hung up.

Avery heard the disconnecting tone. She clenched her fingers. That old man has crossed the line! She
has finally seen his true colors! He never cared if Adrian lived or died! However, she did not
understand. If he did not care whether Adrian lived or died, why would he spend so much money to
cure him?

Adrian’s condition was better now, but he was still treated kindly. What was Nathan trying to do?

Avery held her phone and walked over to the other mansion. The other mansion’s door was open.
Avery entered the courtyard, and a dog immediately ran out, barking at her. Avery was so frightened
that she stopped in her tracks. Thankfully, the master of the dog heard the barks. She soon came out to
order her dog to leave.

“Hello, your neighbor, Adrian White. I am his doctor. I am Avery Tate,” Avery introduced herself, “I
came to check up on Adrian today, but they are not home…”

“Oh, I know you! You’re amazing!” The lady greeted Avery passionately, “But my neighbors have
moved houses. They moved the day before yesterday. If you were to come the day before yesterday,
you might have seen them!”

Avery was flabbergasted. She recalled what Nathan said to her a moment ago.

“I just called him. He said that he brought his family on a holiday. Are you sure that they moved
houses?”



“Yes! I saw them moving a lot of luggage. Who brings so many things on a holiday?” The lady lowered
her voice and said, “Doctor Tate, don’t get yourself too close to this family. They are a rather strange
family.”

“Strange? In what way?”

“They are a mysterious bunch. We have been neighbors for so many years, yet they have never
spoken to us once. Don’t you find it strange?” The lady said confusedly, “They have been staying here
for a long time. I wonder why they suddenly moved.”

A bad feeling rose in Avery’s heart. She felt as if she was about to jump into a huge trap!
