The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 1561

Marcus wheeled himself over to Adrian and ruffled the boy’s hair gently. “Don’t worry, kiddo. I promise I’ll let you see your mom.”

Adrian nodded. His faith in his newfound dad was unshakable. “I believe you, Dad!”

Marcus was typically a stoic man, but his tone softened when speaking to Adrian. “I need to go do some physiotherapy now. Stay put and play with your toys in the living room. And remember, no messing around in the kitchen. If you need anything, just holler.”

Adrian saluted him. “Roger that! Good luck, Dad!”

Marcus pressed his lips into a thin smile, then guided his wheelchair towards his bedroom.

The amenities here were limited, and he couldn’t afford professional therapy equipment. Not without Sophia finding out, at least.

Hence, his only option was to use the balcony railing in his bedroom for his exercises.
